1st Year not attending RC

by BeautifulMind in

i feel relieved to spend that time doing anything else but sitting in a stadium for 8 hours with only an hour break listening to the same talks i've been hearing since i was a child.

not to mention trying to keep my young boys quiet so i wouldnt get the evil looks in my section😂😂.

lot of walking was going on for us to try and tire them out.

ttdtt

Me to - soooo happy!!! Last year was torture.

But I have to say - there is part of me that misses hearing the insanity for some reason.

I think every crazy thing said was just reinforcing that it is a cult that I don't want to be part of.

Strange dichotomy.

Type / Antitype article discredits many JW teachings

by Sanchy in

i was going over the type / antitype articles that were released in last year's watchtower articles and i've just realized how ironic it is those very articles can serve to demolish some of the most fundamental jw teachings.. take for instance the "questions from readers" section of the march 15, 2015 magazine.

after mentioning some "far-fetched" interpretations that others have applied to bible events, they go on to say:.

if such interpretations seem far-fetched, you can understand the dilemma.

Again any time you see the word Evidently it's warning that that BS coming next.

Lesson 1 - Model of Solar-Triggered Earthquakes Confirmed

my beloved brothers and sisters, let's talk about science.

ttdtt

Funny how the USGS says that its not true, nor has any credible science outlet I have found talked about this at all.

Sounds as credible as me saying - I have confirmed the existence of Bigfoot.

Maybe you have access to more credible confirmation?

There is NO scriptural support for a Governing Body in the bible.

The word NEVER appears - nor is this thought implied.

The scripture use is:

Acts 15 Now some men came down from Ju·deʹa and began to teach the brothers: “Unless you get circumcised according to the custom of Moses,+ you cannot be saved.” 2 But after quite a bit of dissension and disputing by Paul and Barʹna·bas with them, it was arranged for Paul, Barʹna·bas, and some of the others to go up to the apostles and elders in Jerusalem+ regarding this issue.*

Now if there was suposed to be a GB and they would Rule the Roost - why would there not be really specific scriptures dealing with it - say like the levites and priests in the old testament.

If you as your average JW - they have NO idea that GB does not appear in the bible.

I think pointing out they can't prove their current beliefs using the bible has more long term value.

Really, the entire WT org rests on those 3 questions.

I think you should ask them to answer the following questions from the bible because you know they have the answers.

1. Please explain Generations using the bible.

2. Please explain the Governing body using the bible

3. Please explain why you believe 607 from the bible

This is better than mentioning anything they would consider apostate and just shut down.

Building 500 new kingdom halls?

by Coded Logic in

jw
friends

the wtbts has to know they aren't actually going to see their numbers significantly jump anytime soon/ever right?

are they planning on cutting the rbc down to 1/10th the work force so they can actually slow down their kh projects instead of increasing them?

or do they think their little website scheme is actually going to bring in more people?.

ttdtt

This say the can continue to say "we have such a great need for halls we can't keep up."

Then they can tag whatever crap statement the want to the end of that depending on what's needed.

45 Minute Bethel Video about Changes (downsizing) at Watchtower

by OnTheWayOut in

i don't see this posted elsewhere, and i don't have the links besides this facebook one.. but here is a 45-minute long bethel talk about the changes at bethel including addressing the hard feelings of people who were given the axe.

basically, everything must change.

we gave remaining bethelites saturday off to do our bidding in "the field" and we give bethelites over 70 an extra day a week off (if you can find any such bethelites).

ttdtt

you can see it on my post about this yesterday - http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5707033680543744/big-house-forced-exodus
