  look at the new york post online today and watch the videos of mayhem and destruction to the city with fires all over manhattan.

  the police vehicles are being destroyed and torched and the rioting just goes on and on.. i regularly went to nyc sometimes once a month for years.

  now, who on earth would want to go to this hellhole??.

  To minimus--> To correct you, this is not happening in NYC--I know about this since I live there. The mayhem and destruction is occurring within Portland, OR. Although NYC is still experiencing crime in some areas, it is not as devastating as you described. 🤨

  Some dubs have complained about receiving rotten food and not receiving the same (or close to) the amount that some others have received (i.e., elduhs, MSs, RPs, plus popular dubs getting the best poultry, seafood, pasta, desserts, etc., while non-populars getting rotten vegetables and very few canned goods). Although, the Borg is "providing" the above, there are always going to be folks who are taking this "endeavor" personally and give what they want to give to certain ones while others suffer. (Hopefully, the sufferers will wake up and eventually leave!)

  How a rumor of assassination spooked the Watchtower

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  president kennedy's brother robert excited the world as a candidate for president 5 years after jfk's murder.rfk, in turn, was murdered.the assassin's name was sirhan sirhan, he was palestinian.it just so happened the assassin's father, bishara, was a member in good standing as one of jehovah’s witnesses.so what?

  so this:this seemingly innocent fact would jolt jehovah's witnesses into a near panic.

  i know because i was there.here are the facts as i remember them.______the jehovah's witness, bishara sirhan unfortunately had a reputation in his neighborhood and community for being excitable, even volatile at times.

  Terry and LongHairGirl--> WT is making sure that they possess properties--beautiful/modern minimalist the world over. As a matter of fact, ExJW ANALYZER made a video--which to me/IMPO, is a mindblower of all sorts--about the plethora of houses, mini McMansions, etc., the GB, their Helpers, and other close cohorts can reside in whenever they choose to, as shown below:

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hERZNKF868&t=628s

  It's a damn shame that the H8teful Eight have access to the above and the R&F (PIMI, PIMO, POMO, IR, Bible Studies, etc.) cannot.

  How the Governing Body elite are really Doomsday Preppers and always have been paranoid

  by Terry in

  2. scandals

  watchtower boondoggle from 1929, better known as the house of princes.

  this was built in 1929 to house the newly resurrected “ancient worthies” such as abraham, david, and other old testament men of faith which were supposed to have been already resurrected in the year 1925.

  (note: it didn’t happen.).

  Vidiot--> I went on a bus tour in 2016. The tour guide sister instructs the group NOT to take any pictures of the residential buildings. "The GB and Helpers want their privacy respected by all who come and visit Bethel, but you are welcome to take pictures of other areas." She stressed this statement 4 times during the tour! Talk about a covert/suspicious/paranoid nature of ANTMO, Herd Him Talk Women's Purpose in the Borg, Steven "Marshall Applewhite's Twin Lett, etc.

  District convention to be held in assembly hall instead of stadium

  by NikL in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  last night they announced that this summers district convention will be held at an assembly hall.. this is the first time i've seen this happen.

  there are a couple of congregations in the same hall here and they aren't going to the same ones.

  they are having multiple dates.. the hall they are going to use can only hold 1500 people max.. just wondering if maybe they just couldnt get anything bigger this year or if the falling numbers are playing a part in this decision.

  True, and I'm sure that NYC was the first to do as far back as 2006. The Brooklyn Circuit Assembly Hall located on Flatbush Avenue and Aberdeen Road had its first District Convention that year, and it is still continuing to do so at present. In fact, this Assembly Hall holds Memorials with a nice number of assigned congregations since 2002. As pointed out by other posters to your thread that WT figured out the economics of holding DCs at these AHs. The only convention season this (and the other 2 AHs--Long Island City and Stanely Theatre, NJ) were not utilized was in 2014 when the International Conventions were held. Arenas which are Nassau Colesium and Citifield were the locations for those large indoctrination sessions.

  Zalkin Law Firm flooded with calls from ex-JWs

  by Roger Kirkpatrick in

  2. friends

  yesterday, i posted a question for a friend in texas as to whom he should contact to report sexual abuse from the 1960s by a jw pioneer/elder who is now deceased.

  (incidentally, there are plenty of people who are still alive and in the organization who were very aware of the circumstances and who can be summoned to give testimony regarding these accusations.

  ) so, my friend called the zalkin law firm.

  NO PENSION and NO UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS for Bethelites from any branch. Only the H8teful Eight gets the goods from the R&F who donate and all of the real estate deals they have made.

  Is the Governing Body under estimating the volume of those waking up?

  by I believe in overlapping in

  2. beliefs

  with all the scandals of the organization, it would .

  be sound and logical from a human or strategic viewpoint,.

  that they loosen the reins of control and be more honest with its members.

  WT only wants non-critically thinking R&F members to remain within the Borg. They figure that these persons will be PIMI forever and never question or think to question any doctrines and especially organizational policies. Any other R&F who wake up--verbally and/or silently questioning the above--are considered apostate and enemies to "Mother". In fact, the Stepfordized PIMIs will give any and all $$$$ to the GB--without question!

  @fulano. Imbibing in a great deal of alcohol can reek havoc on one's looks, including a person's overall health. That's why ANTMO is really aging!

  If You Criticize A Person of Color Are You A Racist?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  seriously, it’s getting to a point that you can’t make a negative comment about someone without being charged as a racist, homophobe or sexist!

  if you criticize a female, you are obviously sexist.

  if you criticize someone who happens to be gay, you must hate homosexuals.

  IMPO, it depends upon the type of criticism. The definition below can be taken in 2 forms:

  crit·i·cism

  /ˈkridəˌsizəm/

  noun

  • 
    the expression of disapproval of someone or something based on perceived faults or mistakes:"he received a lot of criticism"
    censure, reproval, condemnation, denunciation, disapproval, ... more
  • 2.the analysis and judgment of the merits and faults of a literary or artistic work:"alternative methods of criticism supported by well-developed literary theories"synonyms:evaluation, assessment, examination, appreciation, appraisal, ...

  If this word falls under the second meaning, i.e., in the case of a supervisor (any race) to an employer (any race), it would not be considered racist. The supervisor is critiquing the work or work ethic of the employee. This critiquing, if the supervisor is a concerned individual, would be helpful to the employee so that he or she can make the necessary improvements in their assignment(s).

  If this word falls under the first meaning and the criticism sounds like words "45" and his hateful/hate-filled supporters would express and have expressed, singling out one or a number of demographics of people, then it is racist (definition: a person with a prejudiced/discriminatory belief that his/her race is superior/better than other races).

  The rhetoric that is spewed out nowadays is anti-black, anti-Latinx, anti-Jew, anti-Muslim, etc. , and is causing dissension amongst various people, to the degree that innocent people being harassed in the street while minding their own business plus taking care of their normal everyday activities (i.e., going to work, going to school, taking care of family, travelling to buy a meal, etc.).
