"...you are resurrected on the moon" LOL. Too bad for those poor souls who had their ashes scattered at sea. They'll be brought back only to immediately drown.

Anyone interested in their ashes on the moon?
by James Mixon infor only $12,500.00 your ashes can be put on the moon or $5,000 for a burial in low-earth orbit, where a travel-shampoo-size urn can spin for years at 17,000 mph until it gradually descends into the white-hot re-entry atmosphere.they hope to have a cemetery on the moon complete with plots and ceremonial adornments..just think every time it's a full moon you look up in the sky and you will always see you love one.
a thought, you are resurrected on the moon.....

Cognitive dissonance and mental gymnastics in social media!
by stuckinarut2 inso over the last few years, the witnesses i know (who were close friends in the past) who follow me on instagram social media have been steadily dropping off and blocking me..... but there are a small number who are still friends.. i have noticed one sad situation for one friend who is clearly battling cognitive dissonance.
if she posts a picture and i leave a nice comment on it, my comment quickly disappears.
(she must delete it i guess) but then soon after she sends a nice private message asking how we are, or commenting on the post or activity.

Theocratic warfare. Great video
by stuckinarut2 inwe all recall the appalling example of vin toole during the australian royal commission when he was questioned about"theocratic warefare".

@Still Totally ADD It's total crackpot nonsense that is playing with people's lives (and deaths). Totally reckless and COMPLETELY overstepping the boundaries between doctrine and conscience.

@Akid48 My mother is the EXACT SAME toward worldly people. Disgusting, worst-case scenario generalizations. If I have a coffee at the mall with my toddler and the lady next to me strikes up a conversation about her grandson (for example), I'll happily engage. Now if I relay this pleasant chat to my mother, she'll GUARANTEED berate me for being so "stupid" to talk to a worldly stranger. "What if she's psycho? She could kidnap your son! People are sick! She could have followed you home and done something to you!" I promise you I'm not even exaggerating. I'd say I saw an old colleague while out and about and caught up about the company and how things are back at the office, and my mother would literally dry-retch, making a puking sound to express her disgust for me even acknowledging a worldly person on a social basis. She's a terrible, judgmental human being and I have her decades of WT brainwashing against worldly folks to thank.

And now in the Silver Sword, the timeline of Bible prophecy at the front shows Satan was cast out in heaven in "about 1914". About. Approximately. Circa. No mention of Jesus taking the throne, either. I sense this date will fall by the wayside in another decade or so. The next wave of JWs will recall the 1914 teaching with the same oblivion many (who are my age) recall the 1925 teaching. Old light.

JW renaming things: "It's Not this, it's ....."
by Muddy Waters inthis was brought up in another thread, but i thought it should have its own thread.
feel free to add your own observations and experience.
the jws are so duplicit, and they rename things to somehow justify their own irrationalities.

It's not the Pope, deacons, priests or pastors it's the Governing Body, Circuit Overeers, Elders and Ministerial Servants! It's not a false prophecy - it was eager expectation. It's not "lack of natural affection" - it's a brotherhood of love. It's not a throng of medicated, miserable, fake smiles - it's JEHOVAH'S HAPPY PEOPLE. It's not an organization of people terrified to speak out because of the ramifications (ie emotional blackmail) - it's an organization of unity! For f*cks sake.

Let's take a trip down memory lane, shall we?
"Vaccination never prevented anything and never will, and is the most barbarous practice . . . We are in the last days; and the devil is slowly losing his hold, making a strenuous effort meanwhile to do all the damage he can, and to his credit can such evils be placed. . . . Use your rights as American citizens to forever abolish the devilish practice of vaccinations." (The Golden Age, Oct. 12, 1921, p. 17)
"If any overzealous doctor condemns your tonsils go and commit suicide with a case-knife. It’s cheaper and less painful." (The Golden Age, April 7, 1926, p. 438)
"Thinking people would rather have smallpox than vaccination, because the latter sows seeds of syphilis, cancers, eczema, erysipelas, scrofula, consumption, even leprosy and many other loathsome affections. Hence the practice of vaccinations is a crime, an outrage, and a delusion" (The Golden Age, Jan. 5, 1929, p. 502)
“Vaccination has never saved a human life. It does not prevent smallpox.” (The Golden Age, Feb. 4, 1931, p. 294)
"We do well to bear in mind that among the drugs, serums, vaccines, surgical operations, etc., of the medical profession, there is nothing of value save an occasional surgical procedure. . . . Readers of The Golden Age know the unpleasant truth about the clergy; they should also know the truth about the medical profession, which sprang from the same demon worshipping shamans (doctor priests) as did the ‘doctors of divinity.’" (The Golden Age, Aug. 5, 1931, pp. 727-728)
"medicine originated in demonology and spent its time until the last century and a half trying to exorcise demons. During the past half century it has tried to exorcise germs." (The Golden Age, Aug. 5, 1931, p. 728)
“When men of science conclude that this normal process will no longer work and they suggest removing the organ and replacing it directly with an organ from another human, this is simply a shortcut. Those who submit to such operations are thus living off the flesh of another human. That is cannibalistic.” (The Watchtower, Nov. 15, 1967, p. 702)

@Witness 007 I second what @stuckinarut2 has offered. I'm in Sydney too and will come give you support in a hearbeat. Just say when and where. You need as many people who "get" it around you so the WT insanity doesn't eat your soul up. Happy to offer you some company during this distressing time.
