  RED LIGHT WARNING IN DECEMBER WT FOR UK

  by The Searcher in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  attention all uk congregations: .

  the december 15th 2013 study edition contains a study article which will be used to 'prime' the sheep for fleecing in 2014 - in order to finance the new uk branch complex.. for those who are prepared to speak up on behalf of their hard pressed brothers and sisters, raise your hand and ask one relevant question before the elders' probable resolution/s - either to send a chunk of your congregation's bank balance to mill hill, or for each publisher to 'pledge' as much as they can;.

  "can the body of elders explain to the congregation why the new branch isn't being self- financed by the miions gained from the sale of all the london properties?

  So are we (and I am using the term 'we' quite loosely) suggesting tithing, not by the individual, but by the congregation?

  by Atlantis in

  this file is being passed around by jehovah's witnesses concerning adjustments in understanding the 2013/7/15/watchtower.

  the first draft they prepared had a typing error, and nevada sent the draft back to the jws for correction.

  they corrected the typing error and sent it back to nevada.

  A really great video on the original pronunciation of Shakespeare (only about 10 1/2 min.)

  by MeanMrMustard in

  2. entertainment

  this is a really great video about how the original pronunciation of a language, during the time a play was written and performed, can affect the feeling and meaning.

  i thought it was interesting.

  enjoy!.

  Interesting Observation by a Coworker

  by breakfast of champions in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  over the past couple years, i've confided my whole "apostate experience" to one of my coworkers, everything from 607 and 1914, to disfellowshipping and being raised with the constant fear my worldly family would die in armageddon.

  so he knows the whole witness thing.. anyway, he tells me this experience he had on tuesday:.

  you wouldn't believe this, boc.

  Addressing some of the credibility issues here. . . .

  This guy isn't the type to yank you around. He's a pretty straight-shooter, and this story was unsolicited. There's nothing for him to gain out of it, and honestly we haven't even discussed my JW issues in quite awhile.

  As for the plausibility of two JWs discussing doubts openly at a Starbucks - entirely possible! In fact, it tells me I need to be more careful when I discuss this stuff with my coworker and others in public!

  I more got the impression that whoever was doing the doubting didn't fully realize what the consequences of coming out (and doing so in public) could possibly be.

  You wouldn't believe this, BOC. Yesterday I was at Starbucks and there were two witnesses sitting together with books and magazines and bibles all out on the table, and they were arguing over those dates you were telling me about! [607, 1914] The one guy was saying that it was a bunch of bullshit, and the other guy was trying to defend it, but not very well. It ended up with the one saying that he's done, he's finished, he can't go on with this anymore.

  So evidently, this series of watchtowers (along with everything else they've lied about over the past 140 years) may just be waking a few people up!

  i'm sure a list of addresses of kingdom halls where governing body attend would be very helpful for some who want to speak to them personally or to spy on these guys.

  any info about meeting times and locations that offer the best oportunity meet up with these guys, made easily availible on the internet, so that if anyone could if they wanted to pay them a visit..

  Hey FRANKIE,

  Again, to be perfectly honest, I doubt you're going to rattle the GB's cage by showing up at their meeting and asking questions.

  For all intents and purposes, these people are the CEOs of a company. And if you know CEOs behavior, they are not easily rattled.

  For instance, I work for a HUGE company worth hundreds of billions of dollars. And if I told the CEO of my company what was really on my mind (and yes, I have met him face-to-face!) he would shake my hand, smile knowingly, look me straight in the eye, and say, "I really appreciate that."

  He would then find out who I was and make every effort to have me fired!

  What I am saying is, THEY DO NOT GIVE A FLYING FUCK ABOUT YOU. THEY HAVE SEVEN MILLION OTHER PEOPLE COMPLETELY DUPED.

  FRANKIESPEAKING -

  Here's the deal: all Govening Body members are assigned a congregation.

  The fact is: THEY RARELY ATTEND THEIR ASSIGNED CONGREGATION MEETINGS, and almost NEVER go in field service.

  So even if you knew where these guys were assigned and the meeting times, it is doubtful you would ever find them there, to be perfectly honest.

  People, it really is this simple

  what will guide us in choosing the right religion?

  the encyclopdia universalis is correct when it highlights the importance of truth.

  a religion that teaches lies cannot be true.
