Good Lord! Can these pinheads get any more goofy?!!?
Check out the bug-eyed pedophile at :35. And the cartoonist's little tit tickle when drawing one of the women a little later. It's this kind of idiocy that will (should) make more people wake up.

Jehovah's people as a Hole can never be corrupted..."
I use the term "As-a-whole" as often as I can in talking with others, particularly when speaking about the holier than thou pinheads in the cong. If you run the words together just right the point is ass-hole.

David Schafer's Mistake
by Hold Me-Thrill Me inthanks cappytan for posting the thread "jehovah's people as a whole can never be corrupted".
it's a sad example of how low in simple reading skills the present gb and their helpers are.
david schafer referred to philippians 4:7 on jw broadcasting.

We signed up because we love God and Christ we did not sign up to follow the Governing Body into spiritual hell.
An older woman in the cong. said pretty much the same thing. She was baptized in the early forties and said if the religion that JDubya's are today would have been around then she would NEVER have been a JW.

What I took away from gagging my way through this chuckle-heads pontificating was that he is full of himself, just like every other "elder".
The term "Be careful for nothing" is very easy to understand, regardless of what Schafer claims. It means just the opposite of be careful for everything, or to worry about everything. Then he goes on with these statements.
"But now, regarding the comments in our text today that have to do with stumbling," This directs attention to anyone who may have been stumbled by the unscriptural speech or actions of others in the org.
"Jehovah reminds us through his word that sometimes things happen in Jehovah’s organization that ought not to happen." There we have the not so veiled admission that the org. is no different from any other organization, regardless of the claims by the governing body, or any other member.
". . .the Christian Greek Scriptures are full of counsel directed to us to help us put up with those who have given us a legitimate cause for complaint." And there is the icing on the cake. We have a legitimate cause for complaint (think pedophilia) but one must just sit down, shut up, and put up with it!
One must NEVER be satisfied with just hearing the words spoken by these TV personalities but listen to what isn't said.

Compliment or criticism - what affects you most?
by EdenOne ina bit of introspection on this one ... just read on someone's post that a compliment makes him "float" for hours, and it got me thinking; within the spectrum of comments that people make about me, from compliment to criticism, which is the type that most affects me?.
after my experience as a jehovah's witness, i find that i've become suspicious of compliments and over-sensitive to criticism.
because a common technique of elders was to compliment someone before going down to business, that is, giving hard counseling or discipline.

Much like you, the worn out compliment precedes the real purpose of the conversation which is to drop the hammer routine has made me very suspicious of anyone who tries to offer a compliment.
That said I have always personally found the truth in this saying: "People will live up to, or down to your expectations, compliments, or criticisms.

If single, you must be legally and Scripturally free from any prior marriage.
So much for any otherwise "spiritual" brother whose wife may have kicked his cultish ass to the curb.
If you are a brother, you must be serving as either an elder or a ministerial servant and have been serving as such for the last two years.
That's right. It's all about position and what is visible to men, to hell with any genuine Christianity.

Yes, thank you!
I laughed until I nearly cried at his quote from the first letter though:
"While it will be possible for many to download the new releases prior to the convention, we encourage you to refrain from doing so until you have attended your assigned convention. Thus you can enjoy the anticipation of the release of a new publication as you have experienced in previous years."
New publication, same worn out words though. No anticipation here.
