  Amazing to see many woke up this year. Yay!

  (That's why I thought there were a lot of new names here when I came back/logged in after a year.)

  We missed you at the meetings

  a vomit inducing comment.. i asked why do they have to specify 'meetings'?

  they never miss us in tesco or the showcase cinema bar.. in their defence, a friend of mine said: 'that's because the meeting is where they normally would see you.'.

  well, if they want to see you they can arrange a meal out or something.

  No one really cares. No one really MISSES someone. It's more like, "we had a truly meaty spiritual feast.. too bad you weren't there!"

  If my experience is similar to some of you here, some "concerned" sister or brother will ask you out for coffee or dinner, talk about what the issue is.. some are fine, some are too preachy but in the end, they will count their hours on you. That hurts. I am sad but I lost almost all my trust in most of them, even the pioneer sisters.

  Mobile Hotspot - JWFACTS.COM - Assembly & Conventions

  by thedepressedsoul in

  here is an idea i tested.

  works at both assemblies and conventions.

  i have noticed at the last convention and at my last assembly that when i opened up my wifi setting, tons of hotspots came up for people tethering their tablets to their smart phones.

  My only concern with this is if the assembly is only for a few hundred people in relatively small venue. Some overzealous brothers might get an idea to triangulate where the wifi signal is coming from.

  The word "cult" itself leads most deep believers to cover their ears and scram. I truly hope they notice just even 1 of the tricks or lies being used by the GB to control their lives.

  And I just want to share that the God I knew and loved before I became a JW was more kind and loving than the God the GB has been portraying all these years.

  Today's watchtower: obey us, no matter what

  by Tornintwo in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  today's watchtower:.

  obey us, obey us even when it seems strange, obeying our man made hierarchy equates to obeying god, sacrifice your own interests, work for us, don't be independent, put your own interests aside, obey some more, preach for us, build for us, enjoy it, obey some more, forgive when we are jerks to you and mistreat you, accept your changed assignment even if it seems cruel and doesn't make sense, don't complain if we move you (eg.

  ) because you might have to move in the new world, remember you are being trained to obey, remember to put your own interests aside, that's the way we are designed to live - it will only make you happy!
