2017 Sunday RC Final Talk & Comments About 1975

by baldeagle in

many of us here have commented on the deceitful friday afternoon video shown at the 2017 rc that discussed 1975.. the video attempted to shift the blame onto congregation members for the fiasco saying, "some were looking to a certain date as signifying the end of this old system of things.".

this same video mentions how, “a few even went so far as selling their homes and quitting their jobs.”.

we all know that the wt leadership created this teaching and endorsed it right up to its abject failure.. now below is the concluding talk given on sunday at the rc.

Introducing Our Rockstar Governing Body

by pale.emperor in

isnt nice to see the governing body being so humble, meek and not seeking their own importance?.

Interesting is the fact that they remain rockstars and get adulation even when they are no longer on the GB.
Non-JW's and Ex-Jw's having their celebrity moment with Raymond Franz:

In the case of Ray Franz, i'd say he deserves it. I owe a lot to that man.

And anyway, kitchens of that size use industrial dishwashers not sinks and taps to wash up.

Where are the photos of these humble Christ-like servants the GB??? with brooms, cleaning toilets stacking chairs??

Ah but remember the pic someone shared from Bethel of Anthony Morris... wait for it... WASHING A CUP!! Oh how humble he is. Washing his own cup.

Tell me, how many times have you been in the office kitchen and cant find a clean cup so you wash one yourself? Doesn't mean that you spend all day washing dishes does it?

Even though i dont think it's the GB seeking out people to have their pics taken, what im getting at is when i was a kid nobody knew who the GB members where. Maybe some really hardcore JW elder would know some of their names, but look at it now. Everyone knows who they are, they're on your TV daily and one of them even appears prominently on the convention program.

Ask yourself... when did girls like this ever approach you and ask for a pic with you so they could share it with their friends and upload it on one of those JW Instagram pages? Are they getting pics because they're related? Because they think he's cute? Or maybe because he's a celebrity in JW land?

Bro Lett found himself some cute Asian babes, go Stevie!

Brilliant that Jeffrey Jackson went for the hot babes that we all used to look for in the conventions. Jeff dont need no introduction. All those hormones raging after the old coot. Whatta day for you eh Jeff?

The only one i couldnt find a selfie for was Anthony Morris III. But i think that's because even the JWs dont like him.

Has anyone on here referred to themselves as an apostate to fellow witnesses

by Chook in

i have it bodes well for a snap photo..

pale.emperor

Only to family members when they say "aw cummon, you know it's the truth, you just dont want to take your punishment". Hit them with the A word and they literally jump out of their skin or pause for like 3 seconds and pretend you're invisible.

Never done it to any cart witnesses though. I prefer to pretend im an ex Catholic who's being shunned by my Catholic family for studying with the witnesses. They all tell me that's terrible and how their org would welcome me.

My disassociation story

by Roger Kirkpatrick in

following is a summary of events leading up to my decision to disassociate from jehovah's witnesses and the unforeseen results of that decision.. a young man named joel engardio produced a documentary about jehovah's witnesses called "knocking" which aired nationally on pbs.

i purchased the dvd from joel before it was even released and we exchanged emails.

joel had been raised by his jw mother and had been active in jw activities during his adolescence, but he was never baptized as a jw.

pale.emperor

Thanks for sharing Roger. It's annoying isnt it when JWs will just do what they want anyway and make themselves out to be the "holier than thou" for doing it.

DAing or getting DF'd is not an easy situation to be in, but in my personal opinion, its better than being simply "faded" because there's closure. And active JW's know where you stand.

I've Just Noticed Something About The "Remember The Wife Of Lot" Video

by pale.emperor in

maybe you guys got on to this right away, but i've just noticed something about the remember the wife of lot video.. we all know the scene where the judgmental jw dad gives that disapproving look to the girl who has lesbian parents:.

this look actually appears again throughout the video - but on other jws.

in the scene where the new brother is out in service with the former co. look at the new brothers reaction to when a "worldly" person knows the former co from work:.

I just saw highlights (thank-you) but did anyone notice that (as I saw it) Dad is only smiling when he is at the Kingdom Hall (where he appears REALLY happy)? Seems to me like a message that a CULT would want to deliver :0)

i know! If he was in my hall i'd instantly dislike him. So uptight and serious and not to be trusted with a normal conversation. Never would you open up to a guy like that about anything you're thinking about or going through.

He's a poster boy for the culty-est cult member a cult could ever cultivate!

I remember what it's like feeling the need to explain myself when I came out of a cinema. Did I go to see Lord Of The Rings (an elder in our hall named it from the platform as Satanic) or did I see Lion King 2?

Or walking through a busy street filled with nightclubs at night - oh no! There's sister snitch. So there I am explaining (in a free country) that I was only in that street because it's a shortcut to my bus stop.
