  Slang or Terms Only Used by Bethelities

  by new boy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there are many terms used at bethel that might sound foreign to normal people.

  there are many words or terms used at bethel that are unique only to their organization.

  here are just a few of them.. “a jack” this is someone who is a slacker or just lazy.. “a pot licker” this term has been used for many years but its connotation is unclear.

  The Anal Retentive Biblical Jehovah

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  freud came up with the idea: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/anal_retentiveness.

  i would like to sight some examples of a anal retentiveness of the biblical deity.. the garden of eden and the death penalty for eating a fruit, which by the way was passed on to all future offspring requiring an anal retentive jehovah to provide a suitable sacrifice of his only begotten son to correct the situation and thus make it possible for forgiveness from the big guy and remove the death curse.. working on a saturday= death penalty.

  mandatory blue thread and fringes on all israelite garments.. death penalty for touching the ark of the covenant to prevent it from tipping over.. exclusive devotion only to be given to him, bowing to other gods/idols forbidden.. grows hot with anger and becomes violently enraged killing off all kinds of human and animal life with a flood when humans not living the way he feels is right.. threatening to tread on mankind like a mighty man crushing grapes under his feet when pissed off.. loss of self control when pissed off over insignificant trifles.

  Brokeback, have you read the problem with Job by Carl Jung? Please pardon my lack of lurking over your posts if you have talked about it. I think you'd like it.

  Yes. Jehovah is an anal retentive narcissist.

  WTBTS – assistance following an incident at bethel

  by Tallon in

  i haven’t posted for quite a while as i needed a break – although i have been lurking.. can anyone confirm if the wtbts give assistance to someone who has been involved in an incident whilst working at bethel and, as a result, must leave?.

  the reason i’m asking is that, back in the 80’s, i knew a sister who was in bethel service.

  she was assigned to the cleaning department.

  I heard of someone getting repetitive injury syndrome or something like that from working in laundry. The person asked to get a different job and WTBS said no. WT did nothing, not even relieve them by letting them do a different job. They made the person keep doing the same repetitive task that gave them the problem. They went home eventually with no help from WT.

  Damn them.

  The sign language vid is from 2012. Here is a post about it:

  https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/243477/10-things-that-happened-2012-my-review

  Here is a copy/quote from the post (by John Cedars/Lloyd Evans):

  1st September 2012 - The viral deaf masturbation video

  

  September 2012 was the month when one poster's observation (rebel8) turned into a viral YouTube sensation! rebel8 noticed that there was an ASL version of some of the Society's anti-masturbation material in a video that they had uploaded to their new website. Once this news spread, it prompted one YouTuber to upload a copy of the video which ended up receiving over 860,000 views before being pulled off YouTube by another Watchtower DMCA takedown notice. However, this belated action by the Society arrived too late to prevent multiple mirror videos from being produced, many of which were edited to music. The video even featured on the Comedy Central show The Burn with Jeff Ross. The whole episode showed thousands of people how ludicrous and outlandish Witness beliefs really are.

  Gilbert Gonzolas of JWcrisis on youtube regularly uses it as a fake ASL interpretation of his video, which is funny I think. So check him out to see it in the corner. I do not know where else it is, but good luck hunting.

  Enjoy.

  Some good news:

  We used to enjoy watching the soup, so it came naturally to watch the new show.

  So, I watched with PIMI spouse, and he thought they got the video from broadcasting. He thought it was "cute". (OMG I know) Last night while he was pre-indoctrinating himself for the watchtower study, I glanced at his computer screen. I saw a google search with pillowgate trailer being third or forth, and under that jw.borg something (wanted to let him continue to browse, so I glanced away too fast to catch what that next search result was, but it looked like an exjw video). He noticed my glance and put his hands up a bit to cover it...

  Yes!!! Thanks Joel McHale!!! I hope we supply more comedy fodder that meets with your standards!!!

  I was so excited, but hid my glee from my husband. Maybe he'll tell me "Hey, that video was leaked!"

  Where some of the money is going - from AM III

  by Listener in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  there is a public talk given by tight pants tony on youtube titled "the real armageddon, why, when"his talk, as usual, doesn't make much sense.

  he says armageddon is not a nuclear holocaust or an asteroid hitting the earth it's god's war against all the political nations of the earth.

  he talks about a celestial phenomenon that will be phenomenal.

  Frack that moron. cult leader (since he hates that so much). I had to censure myself with dubs this week-end because of some of his blabbing about spiritual people say this not that crap.

  He just blathers on and doesn't think too hard at all about what he is saying. Was the talk recent? The more recent the more demented. I do not think there are any hidden messages in plain site when he is talking. He is not capable of it.

  When did Cook, the new GB member, start claiming to be anointed, and what are the implications?

  by jwfacts in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  kenneth cook was a "helper" in the writing department, which is apparently a role for those of the great crowd.

  watchtower 15/10/15 p.3 states that helpers are of the great crowd.

  "since 1992, the governing body has appointed experienced, mature christian elders to help its committees carry out their work.

  And, if some of these guys have finally realized that it's all a bunch of bologna anyway, then they have nothing to lose by faking a divine calling.

  Yes Magnum!

  Does anyone know the sequence of events between him joining the writing department and his becoming anointed.

  Hopefully one of the leakers in Bethel will let us know. There seem to be more everyday!

  This makes me think about how much the writing department must have shrunk lately, hence less "helpers" to pick from. They probably have another testing ground to get helpers from... or not, sometimes they are terrible planners!

  The book burning has started

  by pale.emperor in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  don't know if this is a global thing but i've just been told by a pimo member of my old congregation that a min servant has been given the task of destroying all old books/literature in the kh library prior to 1992.. could be the elders (or even one of them) on a mission to stamp out dissent as my ex-wife used the same reasoning to her elder dad that i used in my jc: rutherfords books containing failed predictions.. anyone else heared anything?.

  the ms who's been given the task is a company man.

  no hope of him keeping them or selling them on ebay.. they have some russell books in that library too.

  Don't have time to read whole thread, but I want to let you know what I know. I've heard that new Kingdom Halls can choose to have a digital or paper library. This is just a way to burn books if you think about it.

  Edit: o.k. I read it now

  Watchtower May 2018

  by Listener in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the may 2018 watchtower is now out and thought i would make a few observations.in this article we get a story about gb sam herd.

  the recurring theme throughout is the struggles he has had as a black man.he was born in 1935 in a one roomed log cabin in liberty indiana.

  his mother raised him in the baptist church.

  When will there be a Latino or Asian GB member?

  When he gives talks about women having a smaller cranium, thus showing they need to be controlled by men.

  That is how it works. Oh, we can't prejudge blacks? How 'bout gays, women, etc? Then we can bond on that hatred together with our new colored friends.

  Edit to say: Also, they probably had some feelers out before he was invited to the GB saying we need a black man or people are leaving!
