  No Common Sense (About Convention)

  by EmptyInside in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  well,the guilt trip worked in getting them to the international convention,even though,for some,it put their health at great risk.. i'm glad that an elderly relative showed some common sense and realized she couldn't make the convention.

  but,people still treated her oddly about not going.. one of her friends,who had a stroke in the past,thought about not attending,only to get screamed at by her so-called friends.

  she did go,but it was hard on her.

  I dont think this is going to be such a looming issue soon.

  The assemblies will be streamed or on the JW Org site in the future - just like the Mormons!

  Meanwile, I am sorry that so many people you care about were so inconvienced.

  LDS.ORG OR JW.ORG LEADERS...

  by ADJUSTMENTS in

  the similarites between the mormons ( lds.org ) and jws ( jw.org ) are startling!!!.

  here is another, both false religions have governing body's made up of predominantly white anglo men, but tout themselves as being worldwide united religions... where is the diversity???

  both groups look like board members of any top fourtune 500 company.

  They are similar in many ways.

  Strange beliefs peculiar to them

  The Anglo angle

  One takes away your coffee but gives you holidays - the other denies you an education but you can booze and caffeinate!

  They both think only they have it right.

  Well the "star" isnt biting the hand that gave him his "stardom" I guess.

  As has been said on so many threads in so many ways: they wouldnt be harping on this if it wasnt a problem!

  The Reason Why JWs Won't Leave The Cult Is Because They Won't Think!

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  they simply refuse to think, to reason, to ponder.

  they are lazy!.

  even if they might feel that something isn't right, they won't research an issue or a question.

  I have to be honest with you.

  If I hadnt gotten body slammed with corruption that played out right in front of me through NO wish of my own?

  I would have never thought to "look" and see all the things i see now.

  I have a lot of admiration for those who woke themselves up. I had to suffer injury first.

  today on my morning run i saw two sets of jw's going door to door on boston st. one set was two ladies and the other was two guys.

  after i has passed them up on the sidewalk i turned around and began walking towards them.

  the ladies turned to go up to another home just before i got to them but the guys were still approaching.

  I could never have been that poised and kind Im afraid.

  Hey!

  And the web site isnt really a person - just like the Holy Spirit!

  It is the governing body's active force.

  I seem to have heard this line of reasoning somewhere before.............

  The Time Is Coming For Progressive Governments To Make Laws Against Oppressive Cults To Protect It's Citizens, Making Lawsuits More Plentiful Against Them

  by frankiespeakin in

  i think as black&white thinking becomes lesser governments will start makeing laws that will put cults open for more lawsuits.

  what do you think..

  Its a two edged sword.

  JWs would LOVE that however because it would feed what they think about the Great Trib. and the government turning on religion.

  Do you think that the Jehovahs Witness religion would be better /worse if their were an equal number of male/female on the G.B.?

  but what if it did , what do you think the society would be like if it did happen .?.

  What is wrong with the Governing Body is a mindset. Not a set of genitals (IMO)

  Remember when everyone was doing this with YHWH back in the late 70s and early 80s?

  The Society eventually discouraged it and it died out.

  They dont seem to be discouraging this one....

  my how times have changed.

  hey all, it's been a long time since i've posted anything here.

  this may be of interest to some people, or not.

  and i'm not sure if this has been announced in the congregations, even, because thankfully i have not attended any meetings in quite some time.

  Florida is NOT more mutilingual than NYC so I am suspicious of the so called "reason".

  Wasnt Beth Sarim in California?

  Well this time around maybe Fla is the temperate headquarter paradise.....
