  Lines you would never hear from a Jehovah's Witness

  by Ron.W. in

  a slightly tongue in cheek, but also serious roundup of jw speak and why trying to reason with them is like trying to chip through concrete with a plastic spoon.. how many can you think of??.

  elder: 'yes.

  i read through the material you asked me to at your judicial meeting - you're right we're both in a cult!

  I’m majoring in biology to prepare for pre-med in my post graduate work. I really want to make a difference in the world.

  So many older and younger men are scurrying around trying to grow a beard in Wash towel land, that this time next year, they will resemble a congregation of Amish and unknowingly and unwittingly so. Wonder If they will start wearing a corn grown hat to match. Maybe a collection box for unused razors is in order. They can’t see how predictable they have become, trying to be the first to follow their leaders down the yellow brick road.

  My fur babies celebrate every time I come home and jump up and down as if I was Jesus walking on water. I hug them and they lick me as if it’s the last time they will ever see me. Dogs can’t talk but communicate through pure affectionate love that humans could learn a lot from. They have taught me to celebrate daily this one way journey through life, so Merry Christmas to all!

  lett has announced in the latest video update that jehovah has dignified the brothers by now letting them to choose for themselves whether they want to have a beard or not -.

  https://www.jw.org/en/news/region/global/2023-governing-body-update-8/.

  this applies worldwide and to all brothers in any position..

  The GB wants to distinguish the outward looks of their “men” with the clean shaven Mormons. Watch out for young women now who stop shaving their legs in protest and put on a French persona.

  I hate the way they talk.

  by Riley in

  what is with the jw cadence when they speak.

  do they think they are teaching people ?

  they sound like pro wrestlers doing promos or shakespearean actors.

  The ''dreaded'' birthday cake

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the watchtower—study edition | september 2023. study article 39. let mildness be your strength.

  11 if a workmate asks, for example, why we do not celebrate birthdays, consider: could he be wondering whether we are allowed to have a good time?

  or might he feel that our position will dampen the company’s team spirit?

  One reasoning I’ve heard is calling your birthday, an anniversary of your birth , day. Because everyone has only one birth…day, the day of your birth. Geeze, how pharasidic of them , calling this an anniversary.

  Life in a spiritual (UN)-paradise

  a long, long time ago, when i was young, i became a 'special' pioneer.

  it meant that i had to spend 150 hours a month, and i received a small allowance.

  i was then assigned to a small country congregation, in western nsw (australia).

  I finished up with over 1500 unplaced mags. When the Circuit Servant came for his 6 monthly visit, I asked him what should I do with the old ones. He looked at them and snapped at me, "Place them, of course." Yeah! That would've tested even Jesus' miraculous power

  should have used them for firewood and created a lot more “new” light

  what was the standard of quick builds.

  did they cut corners, ignore building regulations, were they unsafe .

  One Quick build they build in North Katy was torn down and rebuild only after 4 or 5 years in the 90,s. Not sure the reason, I had already left. To this day , senior jdumbs still praise this very flawed method.
