  Subliminal images - why and who are the individuals behind it?

  by UnshackleTheChains in

  i remember about 5 years ago reading on another site about subliminal images in wt literature.

  i honestly thought it a load of bs until i checked out one glaringly obvious image of a creepy skull in clouds within the knowledge book.

  i was shocked and even showed my wife at the time who thought it was creepy.. so my question is why?

  Orphan, beside the word enemy, I see a strange double face.

  i have also attended spanish congregations.

  this has helped me to understand and respect totally different perspectives and narratives on race.

  please be respectful during this discussion.

  JW renaming things: "It's Not this, it's ....."

  this was brought up in another thread, but i thought it should have its own thread.

  feel free to add your own observations and experience.

  the jws are so duplicit, and they rename things to somehow justify their own irrationalities.

  Why was studying a book with wordly people called a "bible-study" and the fifth meeting, also studying a book, called "the bookstudy". I have always found that weird and nobody have been able to explain why.

  i left the organization.

  my awakening was this month of july, the first week of july.

  i couldn't answer my own questions about the organization or the doctrines, i couldn't understand the prophecies, i couldn't figure quite well what i was feeling.

  Special Bethelite Speakers

  by JW_Rogue in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i've noticed that some elders will insist on getting a special bethel speaker for memorials, special talks, or sometimes for no reason at all!

  i believe they are trying build connections they can use later, but who pays for it?

  the congregation does and as a former account servant i can tell you airfare isn't all that cheap.

  Of course the congregation pay for the travels. In Europe it is a fixed amount per kilometer. I was never a Bethel speaker but once was invited to give the memorial talk in Spanish far away from the branch I was working at. The starting group had No qualified speaker, so we did the long trip. Got a nice dinner and about a 150 guilders as expenses (in 1989), would be a 75 euros in todays money. Makes sense to me, you can not expect a poor Bethelite cover the expenses.
