Serena Williams allegedly baptized this weekend

by neat blue dog in

.

not sure if this is fake news or not..

HiddlesWife

How long will it take for her to get herself disfellowshipped? Could be interesting.

She may not (not at any time soon). I, in MPHO, say this==> She may just receive only get PRIVATELY REPROVED = A SLAP ON THE WRIST. You see, since newly Sister Williams more than likely has been GIVING SIZEABLE-TO-LARGE DONATIONS to WT, her cong's BOEs, directed via WHQ and their DOs/COs, will instruct them not to excommunicate. They will no doubt give her a WARNING at a time when there are NO other dubs to see her taken in The Backroom [a SHEPHERDING CALL at her residence would be the appropriate setting.] This BOE will have to keep mindful of the fact that they don't want to PISS HER OFF; doing so might just cause her to decide NOT TO CONTRIBUTE MONETARILY to the Borg any longer. This cultporation wants to keep the MONEY TRAIN going! On the other hand/by the same token, if dubs who are not wealthy or famous/infamous commit sins/infractions, they will be disciplined by this organization's DOUBLE STANDARDS!🤬

Front row seats watching the collapse of watchtower

by Indoubtbigtime in

i’m a pimo ministerial servant and i won’t fade because i want to keep my front row seats watching what happens next few years.. my predictions are that this current governing body will slowly die off and the current younger helpers will be the next gb.

they will eventually have new light that they were wrong about 1914 and the overlapping generations.. the new light will be something on the lines of the last days are now because of king of north king of south pushing each other etc etc.

they will do their very best to burry old literature and try to change the past trying to make it sound like they were right all along just as they have done for 150 years now.

@ Hello There: Since you mentioned JIM JONES, I wouldn't be surprised if GB2.0 (particularly ANTMO, especially IMPHO, he gives the impression of being UNHINGED in some shape, form or fashion) would resort to the likes of this cult leader. Many exdubs are and have wondered if they would command the members to eat foodstuffs and drink beverages laced with poisonous/caustic ingredients (chemicals); and if they do, would these members obey this command at the expense of harming/endangering their own lives. Unfortunately, there are a number of dubs--SPIMIs particularly--who have remarked that they would do so and without question! As for those who wouldn't do so, they would get the HELL OUT OF DODGE WITH A QUICKNESS!, just like the former members of that Peoples' Temple Church, making their swifty exodus while they were in Guyana, fleeing for their very lives!

Pioneer Hours Update

by Bartolomeo in

regular pioneers: 600 per year, 50 on average per month.auxiliary pioneers: 30 hours per monthauxiliary pioneers in march and april: fee reduced to 15 hours.

HiddlesWife

@ Ron W.: I busted a gut to pioneer when it was 1000 hours a year 90 hours a month. I regular auxiliary pioneered - 60 hrs a month for six months to build up a routine/schedule.

I do remember those days when we had to go out in very inclement (cold/rainy/snowy) to very hot (steamy/sweltering) weather. There were a couple of elduhs from past congs who wanted the SPs, RPs, and Auxs to even stay out all day long to get their time in (also to brag to the cong's DOs and COs how "diligent and vigilant" the pios were). As usual, this was all about APPEARANCES plus helping the Borg still remain on the listing to the governments that they are a religious organization worthy of maintaining their 501c3 TAX STATUS!

Have you ever been on a congregation picnic?

by LostintheFog1999 in

were you ever on a congregation picnic?

i was on several occasions.. the arrangements were often announced from the platform after the closing song and prayer by the last elder up on the platform.. sometimes it was included in the service meeting announcements as "on saturday we're meeting at 10.00am at the kingdom hall for field service, and after field service for anyone who wishes, especially for the younger ones, we will be having a congregation picnic meeting at the beach carpark on seaview road.".

well, according to the new elders manual you won't be hearing those words again.

HiddlesWife

A while back when GB1.0 was alive, this factor was not even a big to do. Even Bethellites made arrangements for a variety of recreational events, and none of their BOEs counseled them about these. Nowadays, the members under GB2.0 are MICROMANAGED concerning this aspect. In fact, JT ("ExJW Critical Thinkers") remarked in one of his very earlier videos that a CO didn't want him nor Lady Cee to make arrangements for the young people to go bowling! NORMAL activities are made to look/appear inconsequential to dubs via the Heinous Hierarchy of this cultporation!

JW Broadcasting - simply a platform for narcissists?

by eyeslice in

jw
friends

one thing i notice from sitting through a number of broadcasts is just how much these guys love their titles.

it's always brother such-and-such, member of the gb, helper to the teaching committee, etc.

it's never simply brother such-and-such, a local elder with such-and-such congregation.. it seems to me the witnesses are pretty quick to pick up on catholics who call their priests father, which at the end of the day is in much the same vein simply a title.. i suspect these titles point to a huge amount of narcissism of the part of those who revel in such titles, certainly it doesn't seem to fall in line with christ's advocation that the greatest amongst you should be be the least.

HiddlesWife

Yes, it is!

GB1.0 did not spotlight themselves. The only photos of this group dubs and any of the general public who were interested/ curious about the Borg were in a few issues of the magazines and within the PROCLAIMERS (large dark green) book. These guys were pretty HUMBLE and to a greater degree APPROACHABLE--if they weren't very busy and couldn't take out time to greet/conversate with anyone (dub or non).

GB2.0, on the other hand, is an EXTREMELY ARROGANT bunch--particularly ANTMO! This person wants people to not only know who the hell he is but also what the hell he is saying and has said. It's as if these folks want to be showcased like all of the other televangelists. They want to be the FACES of this cultporation, and they want their FACES to fill the HEADSPACES of each and every dub on the Planet! 😫 #VERYDESTRUCTIVE!

Elders told to befriend young ones.

by LostintheFog1999 in

someone on this forum kindly posted a link to the program of the current elders' training schools taking place.. i was just looking at it and thought that the part i have highlighted looks innocent enough unless the elder has an overfondness for young ones.. if he is spending too much time with the younger ones he can say, with hand on his heart, i am simply following through on the latest direction from the organisation about befriending, training, and mentoring the young.

HiddlesWife

This cultporation is and has influenced--IN BLACK AND WHITE--their clergy to GET CLOSE to young people, including children. The elduhs can not give any excuses, saying that it was implied or random comments via talks from COs, DOs, plus other WT representatives. No, it is in FULL PRINT* that this is encouraged for elduhs and no doubt MSs to do so. [*I betcha this info was LIVE AND IN TECHNICOLOR within a Borg Video or 2 somewhere!] So, this "suggestion/mandate" is what will give PEDOS carte blanche to have access to commit CSAs throughout the cultporation, and thinking that them free reign to get away with these crimes without any consequences! 👆☝🏽🤨🤬

A though on the shooting tragedy

by enoughisenough in

i am thinking about how i read in the reports that the shooter had contacted another person expressing desire to go back .....and was told to contact an elder.

the man seemed to me to be reaching out for help and got put off...and since he had called this person, he was put off by someone he felt could make a difference.

i would hate to be in the shoes of the person the shooter called...for i would feel so guilty, thinking i could have said something else and none the tragedy would have happened.

HiddlesWife

If he was a nut job, the elders likely knew he was a nut job and didn’t refer him to proper help, instead it seems they excommunicated and shunned him likely exacerbating the issue. (Posted by Anony Mous)

The elduhs are NOT PROFESSIONALS in any area of medicine. This man could've been referred to board-certified physicians (regardless of insurance or financials). However, it's very unfortunate that WT has spoken against members pursuing psychological help; they continuously/mantrally suggest to the point of mandating for them to "PRAY" and "RELY ON JEHOVAH" at every juncture. These "suggestions"/"mandates" AREN'T ANY HELP to anyone! This cultporation has and still causing more issues due to their HEINOUS HIERARCHY's PERSONAL THOUGHTS on all types of matters! 🤨🤬

Wally ("JW Thoughts") posted a very good video on this particular subject:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7w4cc43HCj0&t=428s

As pointed out in other exjw activists' vids and on the exjw Reddit, let's see how many RPs are going to hang in there or throw in the towel! 🤔🤨
