My Mom Is Finally Seeing The Light!
by minimus ini am very happy that my dear old mom is finally seeing the truth about the "truth".
what hit her like a ton of bricks is the latest wt.
study article that exalts the governing body and pretty much negates everything the bible students and russell, the founder of the watchtower, ever said was truth!.

New Light not accepted by all..
by Dis-Member ini came across 3 very long serving regular pioneers today in the street.
they are out preaching full time ever day.
they are at the forefront and spearhead the teaching of jehovah's witnesses on ground level.

"That's what I always believed, actually! It just makes so much sense."
This, I believe, will be the reaction that most JWs will have. Very, very sad but brainwashed minds will not allow them to go beyond just parotting off the answers at the WT study, shrugging their sholders, shelving any questions or doubts, and moving on.

If the big change at the AGM meeting is dropping the literal 144,000...
by slimboyfat inthe best conjecture seems to be that the gb are going to drop the literal 144,000 teaching, especially in view of the december watchtower that pointedly does not mention the 144,000 number.
if they are dropping the literal 144,000 number, but still claim that only a small number are anointed, and can partake, and that only a few are left on earth, then it is fair to ask what has really changed?
they are simply clearing up the embarrassing situation that there were obviously more than 144,000 "anointed" believers from 36 ad until now, and that the number of partakers has been increasing in recent years.

Well, I hope it's something big, but I won't get my hopes up. I am sure the meeting will be all about how progressive the ORG is, and include lots of stories about foreign assignments. That's where the growth is after all. It will be love, love, the end is soon, ORG, ORG, GB/FDS loyalty, ect. I am sure they will toot their horns and ask for money too.
I agree. Although part of me wonders if they will change more doctrine in time for perhaps a revised Revelation book this summer? Who knows

So Jw's are allowed to celebrate baby showers, but not birthdays?? huh??
by nolongerconfused inperhaps, one of the most arrogant and contradicting behaviors of jdubs.... what is the difference between celebrating a baby shower and a birthday?...they both have ancient origins, from pagan people, including egyptians and the greek.... have you guys noticed any other hypocrite celebrations/behaviors jdubs engage in?.

yes really stupid. the scriptural reasoning behind the no bday thing is flawed also. Because John happened to be beheaded on someones bday, seriously!! Servants of God were never mentioned as celebrating their birthdays so it must be wrong...lol. Funny judicial committee's aren't mentioned in the scriptures either but they do those.

Feedback from study of JUL 15 WT - Tell Us WHEN Will These Things Be
by konceptual99 injust got back from meeting.
the study today was as expected.
a combination of simple acceptance, formulaic research and mistakes.. there are clearly many who cannot read a reference (to the wt 95) regarding the sheep and the goats and consider the repetition of the the understanding of the timing of the judging as new light.

It was as I expected, nobody gives a shit if anything changed. At least nobody voiced it out loud. Our congregation commenting support was as it normally is. I think ex jw's care about this more than jw's do.

"It's Demonic" - What's the stupidest thing you've ever heard a JW say?
by schnare ini was at a amusement park here in calgary today.
my jw mother and my young brother came to visit for a week,so me and my sister thought it would a nice idea to take them to do something fun.
i guess they had a part of it called hallo street and my mom was getting all sketched out from all the halloween decorations around.

Former L T Elder- Head Quarters & Great Tribulation
by James Jackson inthe local needs talk this week was about helping with the building project in warick new york.
the speaker said twice that project was for building the "world head quarters"!
then he added twice; that the "great tribulation" cannot start to after the "world head quarters" is built!

No one really cares, it just means you sucked up more than those that weren't elders
lol.. true but being an elder does afford you more experience with the whole process of being a JW as far as middle management goes. You are privy to certain types of experiences, judicial, etc. So I understand why he labels himself.

If next month's WT came out with the idea that billion-year-old Thetans were inhibiting the free flow of cosmic energy, and put a miscellaneous scriptural reference in parentheses next to it, 99% of JWs wouldn't bat an eye.
lol. a bit of an exaggeration but I get your point and I agree, nobody will give a flying frack about this WT and what it is saying. Its sad really.
