  I'm getting disfellowshipped

  by raven in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  hi everyone, a bit of an update here on my continuing disaster of a situation.. (refer to my previous posts for the full story) my mom met with me yesterday for dinner, it was nice.. however, she brought up the fact that because i live with my boyfriend and how everything has gone down, i will be disfellowshipped.. i think the elders basically have enough proof of this.. due to the anonymous tipper (still have no clue who it was, i live in another town 100's of miles away from my old congregation territory), and my mom telling them.

  i'm not sure when they will announce it, or if they will contact me prior.. at this point i feel so emotionally dead i don't care- on the other hand, i don't want to be disfellowshipped because i do not want to loose a relationship with my mom.

  that is the whole reason i tried fading out.. .

  DJS - a legal response will do nothing - you would be shunned anyway.
  It will just make them think apostate instead of weak person.

  Beards - September 2016 Watchtower

  by Listener in

  2. bible

  the issue of whether beards are acceptable or not is addressed in the september 2016 watchtower - well sort of.

  it is as clear as mud as to whether they are allowed in places like australia, usa and britain.. 17. what are some factors that may affect whether a brother wears a beard?17 what about the propriety of brothers wearing a beard?

  the mosaic law required men to wear a beard.

  What does the Armageddon Genocide Actually Accomplish?

  why murder 8 billion non-believers to just turn around and resurrect 20 billion other non-believers?

  Yes Half banana - its 100 billion.

  Like always the WT uses only stats they like - the 20 billion is a very very old estimate, that convenient for them, they never revised.

  Why? Where would you put them? How could a major portion of them reject the "truth" after being resurrected?
  And how long would it take to resurrect them then teach them.. bla..bla..bla..

  I used the 100 billion figure in a talk once, and a elder challenged me on it (even though I had referenced where it came from) but he of course did not want to believe that any info like that could change in the 50 since he read about it in a WT or Awake.

  Funny how this 1 thing can bring down the ENTIRE house of cards if you think about the logistics.

  Critical Thinking-is that phrase a stigma?

  by PaintedToeNail in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when i first heard the term 'critical thinking' it was as a teenager during a watchtower study.

  the study went on to elaborate how we shouldn't be swayed by critical thinking.

  there was no explanation that the term didn't mean 'to criticize' thoughts and words, but rather that it means 'to objective think and to evaluate thoughts and words'.

  YES!!!!! Every brother who I have EVER heard talk about it on the stage or at an assembly define it as "being critical (as in unjustly picky) of the Org, GB, Elders...

  Again I refer you to:

  The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which relatively unskilled persons suffer illusory superiority, mistakenly assessing their ability to be much higher than it really is.

  I hope you are right - but i think you are not. They are a cash rich organization, and that isnt going to end soon.

  Its gonna take this current "generation" of GB to all die before people start waking up in mass.
