  Smoking gun GB can’t get out of this one

  by Mikejw in

  here in 2022 if anyone says anything against the vaccines even a little bit you are almost apostate.. someone once mentioned all vaccinated sports stars collapsing and someone else said not to speak badly about the gb or by extension jehovah.. the gb can’t get out of this one, it’s gone too far.

  it’s now the case that if you speak against the vaccines you are speaking against the gb and by extension jehovah .

  Here we go again- more baseless claims about people 'suddenly' dying.

  Heres an idea: Do some research that goes beyond the first opinion you come across.
  

  People have been dying forever while playing sports- It happens regularly and it is nothing new. Amateur, college, kids or professional. All ages.

  Usually heatstroke, undiagnosed heart disorders or obesity are the main causes. Read some articles from before covid was around.

  If the covid vaccine was the deadly killer that the tin-foil hat gang say it is, we would literally be seeing people all around us dropping dead in the streets. It just isnt happening.

  Now that some time has passed, there is more clarity about vaccines. It's pretty obvious that vaccines have worked.

  But it has nothing to do with the wt.

  What is more surprising is that some people are still anti vax after all this time.

  Even on this forum there were predictions that most of us would be dead by now because of the vaccine.

  Ffs, the first time in history there was a vaccine available against a pandemic and some people still weren't happy because they weren't the centre of attention.

  So what did they do? They pretended that sitting in front of a screen while googling covid and scratching their balls gave them more authority about the subject than trained experts.

  I grew up as a JW like many of you guys did in the 'old days' - before the GB turned into rock stars.

  I literally cannot believe what this organisation has turned into. The happy clapping, the soft rock music videos, the uncomfortable dancing, the cheesy smiles.

  It is more cult-like than ever and it seems like a bunch of maniacs trying to forget that there is absolutely no substance when you scratch off the veneer.

  Watching this stuff makes my skin crawl.

  Resuming door to door September 1st

  by Mikejw in

  gb worried about not enough coming to in person meetings.

  what are they going to be like when they realise not only jdubs don’t want to go to in person meetings but they really don’t want to go back on the min.

  zoom has so much more appeal for rather than meetings or door to door.

  I spoke to a die hard jw relative a couple of days ago who said they only have about 30% physically attending meetings. This is despite all the 'encouragement' from the gb to attend in person.

  Door to door might be slow to achieve momentum based on those figures.

  JW's are the SAME as other Christians....

  by BoogerMan in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  ...they condemn/attack those whose beliefs/opinions/interpretations of scriptures differ from theirs.. various scriptures reveal to christians that the judging of mankind will be done by christ jesus: .

  john 5:22,28,29, acts 10:42, acts 17:31, romans 14:9, 2 cor.

  5:10, 2 tim.

  JW's are the same as any religion - christian or otherwise. Every religion offers its members an opportunity to cheat death provided they follow the rules of that religion.

  Its that simple.

  I really thought it would be much longer before door to door witnessing would return. But this was based on flawed reasoning that the GB actually cared about the health of dubs.

  An announcement like this, giving only a months notice, sounds like panic mode.

  There will be lot of dubs that have become comfortable that will find this hard to swallow.

  A new generation of anointed that will not pass away.

  by Fisherman in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  obviously, the older “ anointed ” from 1914 died.

  and because they were anointed, they hopefully went to heaven.

  in the first century though, a newer generation did not replace the old.

  we got the inevitable letter today.. meet, associate and "encourage" in person unless sick or infirm.

  also dress up for zoom if you must use it.

  locally over half are on zoom, 3/4 no picture.

  Gb are happy to make a show about how loving the org is by making online meetings available because of the pandemic.

  However, the pandemic is far from over and is biting harder than ever in a lot of parts of the world.

  Now they want butt cheeks back on seats but the bro's have had a taste of freedom and it might be hard to reel them back in.

  so did anyone else have the misfortune of listening to sanderson’s talk corresponding to the saturday morning convention program?.

  full title is “young people - choose a path that leads to peace!”.

  the basic idea is, hey you teenagers, you ought to be pioneers, wt construction workers, and/or bethelites.. i tried to put myself back in time an embarrassing number of decades…if i were in this talk’s target audience, how would i respond?.

  why on earth should I listen to this fat, greasy, dumb, smirking Gen-Xer who has obviously never worked hard for even a single day in his life

  Pretty sure he is too old to be a member of gen x??

  Edited: ok - yeh born in Feb 1965, cutting it really fine to be gen x.

  Some definitions of gen x require being born between 1968- 1980. As I am a gen x'er, Ill stick with those. It doesnt feel right to be in the same generation as this guy.
