The Jehovah's Witnesses religion is a pretentious fraud.
by Finkelstein inyup that's right the jws religion is a pretentious fraud orchestrated by men running their own religious publishing house.. these men cultivated a semblance of power around themselves through their own propagation of being chosen by god or being more righteous than other christian leaders by their self supporting acclaim that they have truer and more accurate bible interpretations.
another known fact is these top leading men were not academically trained bible scholars.
the first leading executive writer of the wts was a professional clothing salesman/ businessman.

This thread is AWESOME. And hearing it like this.. geez.
One wonders how they ever came to be so duped!!! - I was not born in, actually converted to this shit after going thru a very challenging time, once upon a time... anyway.
Thank you. This thread is awesome! Every JW dupe/ dub should read it!
Finklestein, your post should be made into a freakin’ FLYER and put out there!!

Netflix “Explained: Cults”
by Butterfly607 inhas anyone else seen the netflix documentary “explained: cults”?
i thought it was well done.
i feel like a jw might watch it and feel uncomfortable as the show goes through the definition of cults and then the step by step indoctrination process.

2019--Two New Documents Arrived!
by Atlantis in2019 congregation field service and meeting attendance report-s-1-e. https://docdro.id/tosesq0.
2019 elders meet with regular pioneers--special pioneers-and field missionaries.-s-211-20-e. https://docdro.id/or4rg4l.

Thank you for sharing this, Atlantis!
omg, it’s just the same boring, mindless, repetitive drivel over and over and over and over.
They think they’re spicing it up by using cool new lingo, “The Teaching Tool Box” which is just their same old crap, same old publications, but oooh, videos too.
And the letter of appreciation (to be carefully read to the pioneers, word for word, exactly as stated) from the GB, pompous bastards...
This is all so sickening to me now, but I do appreciate you sharing this, thank you.

WT / JW Doctrine ,Satan cast out of Heaven in 1914 ? He has always had access to the earth ? Since Eve .
by smiddy3 inthis doctrine / belief that jehovah`s witnesses have , surely raises a few questions that they do not address.. 1.this spirit being challenged god by questioning his authority and offering eve an alternative making himself satan.. and this took place on earth ,the garden of eden.
so he who became satan had access to the earth.. 2. all throughout the old testament , the hebrew scriptures do we find examples of satan interfering with gods plan of things either by himself or his followers .. 3.their are just too many examples to list individually ,however a few key ones would be , the nephilim , job when god in heaven asks him where he has been , and his reply , from roving about on the earth .
, etc.etc.. 4.and of course in the new testament , where jesus is taken up into a mountain to be tempted by satan for fourty days ?.

Strangest JW you ever knew stories
by rickroll inwe all know/knew people in the kh that were about nuts.
tell us your strangest stories.
i will start.

A few memorable characters from various KHs over the years:
- two extremely obese sisters who roomed together and had horrific fights and would call the elders on each other. They would rip doors off and overturn the kitchen table in their fights.
- another very obese sister who had no car and who expected everybody to pick her up and take her to meetings and out in field service, etc. Trouble was, she had to urinate every 10 minutes and everyone needed to be able to accommodate her urgent... needs. She never once ever offered anyone money for fuel.
- another sister with a small bladder who was a bit more practical and would pee behind or beside a bush. (Erm, this person would actually be me! Haha!) The sister with her in field service would stand in front of her or behind, holding up a coat to shelter her (me) with, LOL.
- a pioneer brother who made his living selling Avon products to the sisters. He desperately hoped to marry someone. Anyone. Right now.
- a Circuit Overseer who, for EVERY TALK OR LOCAL NEED, would bring out the evils and sins of oral sex. He would drool and spit as he frothed on about it. *shudder*
- a young pioneer brother who bought himself - get this - gasp! - a 2-door sports car!!
- a young brother returning from Bethel who expected everyone to be bedazzled by him and worship him and provide him with all his needs. I don’t believe I’ve ever seen someone behave so arrogantly and with such a feeling of entitlement... oh wait... Donald Trump suddenly comes to mind.
- cruel elders, elders with dementia, elders on power trips...
- sisters like sharks against each other when an eligible brother appears in their midst...
- ... elderettes....

Last minute change of venue for 2019 JW regional convention
by sir82 injw regional conventions scheduled to be held in rochester ny in august 2019, will instead be held in wilkes-barre, pa.. here is the story:.
https://www.democratandchronicle.com/story/news/2019/07/09/jehovahs-witnesses-pull-conventions-unable-reach-deal-pegula-sports/1685174001/.
looks like the new management of the rochester arena didn't like playing "hardball" with the jw negotiation team, and just decided to close their doors.. the group is looking at returning to rochester next summer, miller said, adding this is "not a cold, hard break.

It sounds like the disagreement was about the new owners of the arena insisting on having their own security, janitors, and parking attendants as per their own safety & liability requirements.
We can imagine the JWs balking over all that nonsense when they have their own (superior and theocratically-trained) voluntary workers for these positions,
