Why do Jehovah's Witnesses attend so many meeting?

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

ronald curzan ( helper to the teaching committee ) gives a talk on the real reasons jehovah's witnesses should attend meetings.

it looks like the zoom meetings have softened up many witnesses.

many are probably turning off their cameras and zoning out.

Definite SUBLIMINAL tactics used by this cultporation to achieve TOTAL CONTROL (in addition to obtaining MORE $$$$$)! This is VILLAINOUS on soooo many levels! 🤬

WT Ruining Members' Futures

what i mean by the title of this thread is what has happened to a relative of mine, one who is really upset about this factor:.

this relative is a distant cousin on my mother's side of the family.

she studied as a child and got baptized at 14 1/2 years old.

To Foolednomore: And all the while those GBGs are living the Life of Riley with more than the usual creature comforts, many dubs are STRUGGLING to make ends meet. They are SUBLIMINALLY INFLUENCED to "wait on Jehovah" and discouraged to do more for themselves so that they can at least SURVIVE/LIVE comfortably and not die DESTITUTE! 😫🤬

GB pushed the vax

by Diedsuddenly in

i remember during the pandemic the gb updates got progressively stronger pushing the vaccines .

they even had experiences of some who were reluctant to get them and then due to the gb keep saying fully vaccinated these poor jws went out and got all the catch ups shots and even all the boosters.

i remember someone making a compilation video showing all the gb update clips of the gb pushing the clot shots, even tony morris saying the words ‘go get vaccinated’.

There was a dub (she mentioned that she was PIMQ, thinking about becoming POMO sometime in the near future) who, after getting the Johnson & Johnson vax (1 dose needed only), she experienced skin rashes plus started having her menstrual cycle all over again (she is in her early 60s)! She spoke to her doctor who told her not to take any boosters anytime soon until he and some other medical associates can research plus ascertain why these conditions are happening to her. This dub was on a "Six Screens of the Watchtower" show. I didn't get to hear any more info about her situation.

I want to also add that although she at one time LOVED the fame and popularity--because she wanted to be LIKED and LOOKED UP TO in this organization, she has come to really realize that the same dubs (SPIMIs, particularly) who and when they found out that she was going through a great deal of financial upheaval, these people left her alone and kicked to the curb. Some of them (especially the ones who were financially stable--more or a little bit less) showed that they didn't want to associate with her any longer. Remarks such as: "I hope that Sis F (her first name starts with that letter) gets her act together"; "Sis F should work more days--so that she won't be a burden on the congregation in that she won't be asking for help"; " "We hope Sis F will not be asking any of us for monies to pay her bills! So, now she can't be asked to recreate (movies, plays, and/or vacations) with any of us anytime soon!"; and the friggin' like. A good number of dubs who have these attitudes are NOT TRUE BLUE FRIENDS! They are only thinking about themselves. However, it's a good thing that Cuz's family (former dubs and NIs) are the ones who are definitely in her corner plus have her back! 👏🏽

Firstly, thanks to everyone for their comments on this subject.

Secondly, my distant cousin is getting a lot of help with her finances. It's unfortunate that she has to now work FULLTIME until she is 70+ in order to have some sort of savings that resembles a retirement plan. 😭

jehovah's witnesses denied state aid.

HiddlesWife

So, Tony...Just go away. It's not about the money...or is it? Let's see who wins this fight!

It's actually about: Who can gain TOTAL CONTROL, and still obtain more $$$$$, along with trying to still maintain their 501c3 TAX STATUS the world over! 🤨

Did it ever become unbearable to attend another Kingdom Hall meeting?

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

it's becoming unbearable for me to attend another meeting.

i dread coming to the weekly sunday public talk and watchtower study.

the talks are ''repeats'' of a ''repeat.

HiddlesWife

I had a great deal of ANXIETY while I was prepping to go to the KH, CAs, RCs, ICs plus field circus. This condition caused/motivated me to attend the meetings less and less; I told the Ministry School Overseer to take me off of the School. Those elduhs in the last 2 congs I was associated with understood and promptly complied. This was a good thing because I was able to fade out slowly, without any fanfare, to become Proudly POMO! 👏🏽

What I mean by the title of this thread is what has happened to a relative of mine, one who is really UPSET about this factor:

This relative is a distant cousin on my mother's side of the family. She studied as a child and got baptized at 14 1/2 years old. After graduating high school at 17, she took a few business office courses, so that she could after Continuing Auxiliary Pioneering, she could eventually become an RP. Due to the financial circumstances she and her family [mother and 3 siblings (1 sister and 2 brothers), as the eldest child, she searched for jobs in which she didn't have to continue any schooling. Apparently, this didn't work out. So, she ended up returning to the business school she took the earlier courses at and had to apply for a student loan. As time progressed, she enrolled in the full one-year course--the first time was for three months--and graduated with a certificate. It was enough for her to be hired as a receptionist with some extra secretarial duties at banks, insurance companies, and the like.

Now, throughout the course of time--because this all occurred since the later 1980s--she became an RP plus got involved in other VOLUNTARY Borg activities [Need-Greater F.S., Unassigned Territories, various Kingdom Hall Constructions, CAH Tour Guiding, cooking food for various Pioneer Schools, getting parts on her cong's service meetings, CAs and twice in RC dramas, to name A LOT!]. She was happy for a long while (her popularity was skyrocketing to a certain degree as well). However, she realized that as she was aging that her financial status was faltering: The jobs she was employed had given employees opportunities to apply for 401K retirement system plans in addition to more schooling at matriculated colleges/universities! She didn't take advantage of these at all!

Close to conclusion=> She now at age 55 doesn't have a retirement plan, and she has very little savings in her bank account. On the other hand, her siblings (her other sister and one of her brothers who were VZs--Visitors: Persons who studied but did not get baptized) attended college and were hired at jobs with excellent medical insurance plans, great salaries plus retirement plans! (Her other brother, who got baptized, became POMO and followed suit just like his other 2 siblings did.) She is now crying plus very worried about her finances. The real kicker is: She is now WAKING UP, seeing that ALL of the things she did for the Borg and the DONATIONS she gave to it, THEY HAVE NOT HELPED HER IN ANY SHAPE, FORM, OR FASHION regarding her life at this juncture in time. My now exdub family plus NI family have to from time to time help her since she is really in need.

I know that I always have a plethora to say! Has anyone had a similar circumstance? Plus, what are your views about this?

How are things in bethel right now?

by Hellothere in

any news how things are at bethel just now?

been thinking, strange they have gb members giving speeches when they look so depressed.

but maeby there is not many others too choose from.

HiddlesWife

To Hellothere: Agreed! The GB only care about $$$$$ and their celebrity status/station in life. They really/in actuality want the WORSHIP that Almighty God is getting. Talk about COVETOUSNESS! Because they are indeed hateful towards children, women, pets and certain material possessions plus events/activities, they are in DEEP TROUBLE and will continue to be in DEEP TROUBLE for as long as they continue their 💩! ☝🏽👆

To LongHairGal: I have heard these same rumors from a number of exdubs for some time now. If this is true, this "FACT" adds to the HYPOCRISY of this cultporation. They would be using these heinous items for the protection of themselves and their own material possessions--instead of so-called RELYING ON J.G., whom they say is almighty/all power and can protect them from any type of harm. 🤨 They are CHARLATANS for damn sure! 🤬

A PPIMI (kind of a family acquaintance) remarked that GB2.0 "are so concerned about the attendance--true attendance--of the flock, to the point that they are 'praying to Jehovah' regarding how to instruct them to maintain themselves in the faith/Organization and not stray away". She also remarked that "since COVID has and is really affecting people along with apostates who are angry at the Organization", notice this: "Jah is really protecting the GB so that this disease and those enemies will not be able to penetrate them!' The kicker she loudly announced that got me and some other PIMOs plus exdubs was this=> "As for the ones who don't want to be part of the Organization anymore, the GB is being provided with GUARDS, GUNS AND OTHER AMMOs TO SHOW THESE FOLKS THAT THEY WILL NOT BE ABLE TO HARASS NOR GET TO BOTHER THEM AT ALL! WARWICK AIN'T LIKE THE HEIGHTS (Brooklyn, NY) WHERE PEOPLE WHO DON'T LIKE THEM CAN GET TO THEM! HA!". 😲

That last statement really got to me, to a certain extent, in that this is the RHETORIC this cultporation is dispensing as info to its members. Yes, when GB1.0 (Sidlik, Schroeder, Swingle, etc.) were alive, Bethell was an okay-to-palatable place to visit. However, now it is a COMPOUND, where visitors have to be surveyed from the very first step to the guardpost of the entrance of the facility and throughout the WHOLE TIME of the visitations/ tours! This so-called leadership group has taken the FUN out of EVERYTHING they touch in LIFE, even within their own backyard! 🤷‍♀️🤬
