Elders, oh my God what a bunch of losers!

by Crazyguy in

ok i don't mean to put all of them into just one box so to speak, their are some that are smart successful etc.

but my god most of them are just wasted space, ignorant, no drive, horrible jobs, make nothing for income and the only thing in life they have going for them is this title.

no wonder so many will not wake up and hold on to this stupid cult, it's all they have.

Jephthah's atrocity

by opusdei1972 in

in judges chapter 11 we read that jephthah committed an atrocity by offering his daughter in sacrifice.

however, the watchtower, study edition of april 2016, reads:pages 6 and 7:not only was jephthah a mighty warrior but he was a student of gods dealings with his people.

jephthahs thorough grasp of israels history gave him a clear picture of what was right and what was wrong in jehovahs eyes.

Incredible topic for a WT study. NUTS!

If you look at that whole WT - its all about circling the wagons, trying to keep people in.

"Are you using your imagination wisely?"
"Why should we meet together for worship?"

and on and on.

Do our loved pets come back when we do?

by Nichole in

i have recently started studying and im really enjoying learning all about the truth!

i am a huge animal lover and have my dog trixie for 11 years now, i got her when i was 12 years old and she has been the best friend and companion, i am so lucky and grateful to have her at my side every single day!

i get worried a lot about what will happen when the time comes that she has to leave me, anytime i even think about it i start to cry because it would break my heart not to have her with me anymore!

Plus it's all becoming just a bit too unbelievable these days.

Oh yea - that too!!!

Don't you love the push for "Simplified Magazines and Tracts" As if the WT writes in Shakespearian English.

It's like saying, yea the people who read our stuff are illiterate, and any new one probably will have English as a 2nd language.

From all the assembly parts - I thought we were the most educated people in the world?

Thats what I am saying - no more teaching. Public talks are worse than ever, meeting parts are worse than ever. Meetings are just a blackhole of crap.

The website:) HAAAAAA From the stats they touted last year, if you had a 7 million person base that is being pushed to use the site all the time, those usage stats are embarrassingly low. No one except JWs and Apostates go to the site. The site is a Joke.
