  Large Increase in Trolley Witnessing

  by The Searcher in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  when the org implements its bethelite "genocide" and demotes many members of the "worldwide order of special full-time servants of jehovahs witnesses" into lowly regular pioneers, many more trollies will have to be found in order for such ones to rack up their required monthly hours.. how many are actually going to be shocked by this into waking up?

  It's not your conduct, it's your status

  jw's often state that their practice of disfellowshipping is used to keep the congregation clean and free of "worldly" influences and the like, however that is just pure b.s.

  in actual practice, all they actually care about is your status according to the watchtower society.

  case in point is ray's situation.. ray disassociated himself about 20 years ago because elders and other jw's were constantly spreading false rumors after he quit attending meetings.

  do you want this sound coming from your kid's bedrooms on sunday morning?

  if not act now, play it tonite during dinner.. mongolia is getting to be a cool place, just watch out for their tendency to revere chinggis khan.. mongolian throat singer zorigoo (altain orgil).

  I think we shouldn't forget that some brothers used to give us, money, clothes, (I even received a car from a brother), just because they appreciated our work, not to expect something in return. We, as europeans, were surprised by the amounts of money they gave us every time we went to different congregations in the NY area just to hear experiences from our missionary assignment. and they couldn't expect something in return, so it was just generosity.

  Pioneering

  by Sabin in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i`ve heard many pioneers claim that they are deserving of material things because they are the ones who make all the sacrifices.

  one claimed that jehovah had made sure that she got absolutely everything she wanted right down to shelfs so she could put up pic`s of her family because, to quote "we are so deserving, we`ve made the sacrifice".

  mind you this is the same sister who told me "it`s harder for me having my son d.fs than for a mother loosing her child in death".

  Does watchtower pay any workman's compensation or retirement funds for CO's

  years ago there was a thread about rumors that society was paying into a retirement fund for circuit overseers.

  could any recent ex-bethelite confirm or deny.

  here is the old thread:.
