Midweek meeting video

by aboveusonlysky in

did anybody see the service meeting video this week?.

australian sister was sexually abused as a child and thought of ending her life at 14 years old, sometime later jw's call on her father who accepts a study and eventually the whole family becomes witnesses, life gets much better as the sister immerses herself in pioneering etc, she still has some dark days but prayer along with going for walks and swimming has helped her cope with bad memories of child abuse, the new system (just around the corner) will completely fix everything......... i'm dumbfounded, the hypocrisy has literally rendered me speechless......comments anybody?.

Life is to short 2

You make a very good point about it being harmful, every since I have seen it I have been in such a depression. I wonder how many others have been affected like me.
I am going to my counselor next week and it is one of the first thing's I am going to show her, I really want her take on it

Over on a staunch JW site, some of the "sisters" are talking about how much viewing it upset them.

This was a dumb thing for the Org to do. It shows no sensitivity or awareness on their part.

I am sorry you have been feeling down about it all.

Much love and respect to you Life is to short.

Are quality restaurants even slightly aware of the concept..

of providing high quality food?.

personally i prefer the small restaurants with a owner who cooks the food.

often the food is equally imaginative and just as tasty as the more expensive restaurant.

Sysco not Cisco...just in case anyone wants to order their food directly from there LOL

rebel, it sounds like flowers might be in order.....or a nice little hand written note.

What's Is The Goal Of This Religion?

by pale.emperor in

what's is the goal of this religion?.

i mean, if it's for money they could do a lot more like other religions do: tithing, paying for prayers from the gb, selling "miracles", selling "blessed" items, selling courses.. if its for power then what are they hoping to do with that power?

they dont seem to do anything.

All the above thoughts seem completely accurate.

One additional thing that might keep them from moving in a good direction is the old "death by committee" axiom.

I suspect there is tremendous in-house fighting for control right now.

So many U.S. restaurants are really just clearing houses for Cisco. The food comes off the truck, gets re heated or reconstituted, put on a pretty platter and served.

This is especially true of desserts. Very few places make a dessert in house anymore.
