  wt on education..

  by zeb in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have just watched the glass smashing on the wt video on education.. please consider these experiences from the opposite side of that "coin".. i have heard young ones say out-loud on the mike in the kh that "jehovah is my special friend.."these ones who were at the top of the wt 'tree' pioneering, putting in the hours etc but, it followed that soon saying that pivotal statement they dropped their pioneering, faded, picked up the girl/boyfriend and suffered being dfd.. so where did their wt "education" leave them?

  it left them as young adults naive to the world, unskilled, with no qualification to offer any employer and having to replace their former family/associates/friends with new ones.. ( dont get me going on shunning) in some cases with little success as we have read here where they moon about for months or longer unable to emotionally heal after the leaving or df'ing and also others with such a turn around they would never have believed it possible... there was a wt that related how a brother (!

  ) followed an interest in history and left the truth.

  This other thought: Once the JDub while or after attending college/university awakes up and gets good/decent employment, he/she/they will not feel any obligation to donate to WT. They will see the scam that this corporation-disguised-as a religion is conducting and leave them flat for good!

  District Assemblies now being held at Circuit Assembly locations?

  by ShirleyW in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i haven't been to a kh in decades, so i get the google alerts for jws and i got one featuring a local news channel in brooklyn covering the assembly being held in flatbush, brooklyn.

  i'm sure that venue is where the circuit assemblies are usually held, keeping in mind it's summer and that's when the district assemblies are being held.

  why are they acting like they're so strapped for cash and now holding district assemblies in circuit assemblies locations ?.

  Shirley W=> Re: The Brooklyn Assembly Hall DCs (now RCs) have been held there since 2006. It's the beginning of WT saving $$$$$ and keeping from having to pay rental fees to the management corporations of arena venues such as Yankee Stadium, Met Life Stadium, Shea Stadium and the like (although Nassau Coliseum was used in 2014 for the International RCs).

  Hey, maybe this (revealing themselves to the public and being in the public eye) is a good thing: It is really showing what type of persons these men are, not only to those R&F Jdubs who are questioning WT's motives but also to outsiders who have the same questions and/or suspicions.

  They are certainly not faithful (disloyal) nor discreet (obtrusive and not low key) since they are broadcasting themselves like celebs (showing off their expensive jewelry) and displaying haughty attitudes in their speech (Herd, Splaine and, definitely, TOMO)!

  OK what is the deal with Smurfs?

  by blownaway in

  2. beliefs

  i heard the crap, smurfs were magical evil creatures.

  i saw in the 80s kids parents get talked to because of the kids having one or pjs with smurfs on them but other than the urban meme where did this come from?

  was there anything printed about it?

  Hey, COs and elduhs have given talks about other TV shows and films (i.e., The Munsters, Dream Of Jeannie, The Addams Family, various Hanna-Barbera cartoons, Star Trek, Star Wars, Marvel and DC superhero flicks, etc.).

  Anything and everything, so that the GB could still control the minds of JDub children and their parents; plus since these films cost $$$$ to see in the theatres and/or buy in DVD, the H8teful Eight want these funds to go into their pockets instead!

  Cart work faces headwinds.

  by lastmanstanding in

  2. scandals

  my little bethel bird has whispered in my ear some encouraging news.

  it has been reported to the canadian branch that some witnesses doing cart work had police stop them from carting in public parks.

  the direction sent to the southern ontario congregations is to cease carting until further notice.. this is no joke.. have a jw-free day..

  LMS=> I was told that in NYC and NJ, there are not many carts stationed (whether these are at street corners, parks, college campuses, etc.). However, my sources told me that they have seen JDubs doing short street work stints (holding small tracts, no tables or other devices and covertly offering these to passersby).

  The Latest Thing Waking People Up...

  by pale.emperor in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  since i woke up and left i've been contacted by others i knew from my youth who've also left the cult.

  also people around the world on facebook adding me out of the blue because we have mutual friends and they occasionally ask me stuff or share their story.. what i've noticed in the vast majority of cases, is that people are waking up not because of the arc or doctrine but apathy.

  active jws are becoming less and less interested, less and less bothered.

  TOMO=> He mentioned within a talk a while back that he "can't wait to destroy/annihilate the wicked and anyone else who is not worshiping Jehovah". (He actually meant worshiping HIM!) Also, he was proudly giving an illustration re: the bodies destroyed at the Big A "will smell like very burnt hot dogs". Yes, he really is a very arrogant and hateful man--who only wants our $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$!!

  Either that number represents a vast amount of born-ins or--someone in WT is lying!

  The JW take on Black lives matter at the summer convention

  by purrpurr in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  another "gem" from the convention.

  there's a talk about remaining neutral.

  one of the topics they say jw's should avoid is the topic of "peoples lives matter" which is barely veiled code for black lives matter.

  The GB is actually selfish and racist themselves; they want all of the focus on them--so that any and all $$$$ are to be given to them and them only (not for any cause or movement).
