I got this one elder and his elder friend who just creep me out everytime they come to my door to encourage me to return to the borg. This morning I was out washing my car in the driveway and here comes these two bozos. They tell me how much the borg is growing and all the changes. I'm just working away on my car. The see my cars, my house, my job, and commission, retirement. I can see the dollar signs in their eyes.

Change in WT Stance on Retirement? A qualified answer?
by blondie ini was reading the march 2025 wt today, and i notice this: "march 2025 p. 29 jehovah’s hand is not too short p.29-31 (retirement, but qualified statement) (notice , it is not wrong, but, in the end we must rely on their god.
retirement is alluded to as "making the quest for material things the focus of our life.
" are we confident that their god will provide (why have retirement then?

Verdict on the 2025 convention
by gavindlt infinal thoughts after 15 hours of the 2025 assembly.
after dedicating 15 hours to the 2025 assembly, i walked away with a heavy sense of spiritual emptiness.
the only part that managed to stir anything within me was a single video on day one titled “what does jesus see in you?”—a piece with sentimental appeal, but still surface-level at best.. .

The Governing Body is Restructuring the Org.and encouranging young ones to REACH OUT!
by liam inthe governing body just doesn't let up on encouraging the young children to reach out to do free labor for the organization.
so another generation of young people with ruined lives.
another generation of young people that will get old and wake up in their 50s to realize they were in a religious doomsday cult.. and they are getting rid of some old workers that ran the branches of the organization, and giving them different assignments or maybe they are just sending them home, who knows.

My non-Jw Grandfather summed the The Jw's up well, " They are takers, but when you need help, it is screw you!" That's from the top down.

Even after many years out, why can't you stop thinking about them.
by liam inthere is a lot of exjws who have been out 10-20-30-50 years, but for some reason, when they see a group of jehovah's witnesses, sitting by their carts, drinking coffee, scrolling through phones, laughing, something inside happens.
most can't explain it.
some say it makes their blood boil.

Watchtower wants to control everything in your life. From birth to death, you are their little bitch. Give us your time, Give us your money, Give up on any dreams you have. You are a " Ho for Joe". No thanks!

Is there a new rule regarding disfellowshipped people?
by HOTB indoes anyone have any information about a relaxing of the rules regarding family reaching out to disfellowshipped members?.
i've heard of an elder being openly in touch with a long time disfellowshipped family member.
apparently the term 'compassionate view' had been bandied about.. i can't find anything relating to this.. i'd be interested what the new rule is in when came into play.. hotb .

EisMe- I don't think The Watchtower has a handle on the Questions of The Universe. I still have hope that God or the high forces that made earth and humans show us the way with no mystery.

I was DF'd, No great loss. I don't give a rats azz about Watchtower 's new policies or any Jw's . My life and circle of friends and family has greatly improved without Jwism.

I can never understand that Watchtower likes to keep their people dumb and stupid and rake in as much money from them as possible. Would it be better for Watchtower to have their people educated with good jobs so then they can Really get money from their members!?!

I have that experience. Elder Super Righteous was allowed to send his son to college with no problems. But for my family since my father was not an elder or even a servant, I wanted to go to trade school. It was the big FU by the elders. Especially by Elder Super Righteous. You can say that all hell broke loose when I signed into the Navy. Didn't matter I was never considered a publisher or even on the school.
