Warwick project "ahead of schedule?"

by stillin in

this is what a brother said at the meeting today.

he has been working there as a volunteer.

but my impression was that the toxic waste debacle set the project back seriously.

Sounds like we could have been at the same KH today. Same comment made where I was.

Blatant Lie, or Unwitting Contradiction?

by OneFingerSalute in

just a comment here about the idiocy of this mornings wt.. in one paragraph that was yapping about faith and prayer the writers made the statement that faith could be shown by praying for material things, not just spiritual things.

they used the "give us this day our daily bread" quote.. a couple paragraphs later they said prayers are only answered if they were in harmony with god's will.. so i guess it is god's will that my frail very elderly parents are virtually ignored by the congregation they are in.

i guess it is god's will that after over 135 years combined time in duh troof between them they are kicked to the curb, accused of being selfish, unloving and they are laughed at and ridiculed by the eldurrs, the eldurrs families, and sheeple in general because of the frailties of old age.. they (that congregation) will be damned by god for their cruelty..

Changes to reporting

by Formerbrother in

so it seems placing literature is not so important anymore, now that we live in a digital age.. we are being pushed to show videos instead.

this is the new reporting from next month, just hrs and any literature placed in one box and then how many videos you showed in another box.. bib changes for sure..

"Just another way to measure ones "spirituality." "

That is true. A not so subtle way to force the sheeple to buy the latest electronic gadget and follow orders.

Give us more faith WT

by Formerbrother in

what a picture in this sundays wter.

the go bag is there and they have to turn all the lights out and have their meeting in secret.. .

in our congregation we are really being pushed hard to get your go bags in order for every member of the congregation, with at least 3-5 days food and water.. .

OneFingerSalute

I noticed the photo also. They have "evidently" blocked themselves into the room. Notice the difference in block where a door used to be?

Oh well their provisions in the "go bags" will last a few days, then they can eat each other.

I wonder though where their tablets are? What happened to jay double u dot org? What happened to the jay double u governing body TV?

By Their Own Words

by OneFingerSalute in

the internet is a great tool as we all know.

i found this quote from the early book millions now living will never die to be very interesting as it seems to be the exact opposite of what jdubya's practice.

just another example of the double-speak they engage in.

I found this quote from the early book Millions Now Living Will Never Die to be very interesting as it seems to be the exact opposite of what JDubya's practice. Just another example of the double-speak they engage in. I printed this out with certain words bolded to potentially use when asked why I ask questions that no good Dubya should ask. I thought it was also an interesting application of their fall-back Bible verse in Psalms about light getting brighter.

Error always seeks the dark, while truth is always enhanced by the light. Error never desires to be investigated. Light always courts a thorough and complete investigation. Light and truth are synonymous. They are progressive, and "the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day". (Proverbs 4 : 18)

More Silly Stuff from jw.org videos

by OnTheWayOut in

jw
friends

this is a facebook link and i just can't bring myself to dig into jw .

org and find it.there's no trick here, but i think you have to be logged in to see it.

if anyone could figure out how to repost this, that would be great.

"For the sake of argument. . ." There can be no "argument" with these self-appointed jokers interpretations of the Bible.

Now "let's assume. . ." Well we all know what happens when one does assume. It makes an ASS of U and ME.

Also what was with the explanation brother baldy gave of what "we" thought a generation was? That isn't what I remember being taught. I know, I know, don't try to make sense of non-sense.

Simon. Persistent unread message error.

by nicolaou in

for the last few days i've seen a nice green unread pm indicator even though there are no new messages (which is dreadfully sad).. not really a problem but thought it might be worth waving my arms and shouting about in a new topic.

.

and maybe get a few pity messages in my inbox .

Couldn't find the thread. Any fix yet?

I am surprised they canceled meetings and field service.

I'm not sure the WTB&T$ cancelled them. I would place money on the French government having something to say about it with the declared state of national emergency though.

Meanwhile in any event why didn't they "trust God" and "obey God as ruler, rather than men"? Don't they really believe what the spout off about?

Hypothetical Question...

by JW_Rogue in

i was just thinking that the org has said lots of outrageous things over it's history and most jws just continue onward without a second thought.

so my question is what do you think would have to be said from the platform or wt to get people to get up and walk out immediately?

is it even possible?

OneFingerSalute

All any statement needs is the preface comment of, "The SLAVE says. . ."

It will be swallowed whole.

Comment during the WT

by OneFingerSalute in

so ofs got to comment again this morning and thought the comment might bring a smile to someone.the second half question on par.

15 was, "we cannot actually see jesus, sohow can we look intently at him?".

ofs commented, "of course, we cannot literally see jesus as peter did.

So OFS got to comment again this morning and thought the comment might bring a smile to someone.The second half question on par. 15 was, "We cannot actually see Jesus, so
how can we “look intently” at him?"

OFS commented, "Of course, we cannot literally see Jesus as Peter did. But Geoff Jackson described the governing body as Guardians Of Doctrine, and today we DO HAVE J Double You Dot Org and the J Double You TV where we can see and hear the governing body as they relay to us the faith strengthening words of the Guardians Of Doctrine."

And of course as always the heads were bobbing up and down like kids at the apple barrel on Halloween. Am I taking too many chances?
