shamus what makes you think I need you to tell me what to do? Take a hike. And spare me any sad stories about what avishai has been through, that's just another pathetic excuse for self indulgence.

"The Apostates Are Infiltrating The Congregations Now"
by minimus inat the circuit assembly, my mother mentioned to me that the society is warning of a new danger.
there are witnesses that are on the internet reading apostate things but are still members of the congregation.
they are slowly being infiltrated by the 'apostates' and are still amongst us.

Boasts and Threats Followed by What?
by metatron ini'm really interested to see what happens next after the watchtower society collectively tires of issuing threats.
("apostates!
") or bragging about how wonderful they are.

They never get tired of talking about how wonderful they are, how wonderful the spiritual paradise is, how rotten everyone else is.

The "tiring out" of chronology
by RunningMan inmuch has been said on this forum about the reasons for the jw lack of growth in western lands.
numerous explanations have been put forward for this and for the future prospects of the organization.
but, above all else, i believe that there is one overriding reason behind it all.

NEW-- Parables of Discreet Virgins & The Talents Refers To ALL Christians!!
by minimus inaccording to the march 1, 2004 wt., the 2 parables "shed light on events in 1919 or thereabouts, they apply in principle to all true christians throughout the last days.
in this way, while the exhortation that jesus gave at the end of the parable of the ten virgins applies in the first place to anointed christians before 1919, in principle, it still appliesc to every christian.
".......i capitalized that quote to show that the watchtower is eroding the fds and the parables that have always applied to them by including the "great crowd".

There's seems to be a different slant in this article for sure. If you can get past all the self-serving rhetoric.

Do You Think We Are Hurting The Organization By What We Do Here?
by minimus in....i sure hope so.
i wonder if we are making a real difference here.
i do hope we are chipping away at the very foundation of the organization.

I think that people that are impacted by what they read here are already on their way. There may be a little effect but I think it is really minimal. I suspect that a few are actually turned back by what they see here, not many, but a few.

Oh I kind of like you Minimus, you have something to say. I don't agree with you all the time, or probably not most of the time. I just don't have any use for avishai. I am not an apologist, I just call it the way I see it. There's a considerable number here that only foam negativity and I find that just as annoying as typical Witness delusions.

Elders searching for long disassociated ones
by Gretchen956 ini have heard of a couple cases in the last year where this happened, and i wonder if its happened to anyone else.. one of my acquaintances from another list moved from portland back to his homestate of maine.
he moved to a small town near the town where he was associated, but had not been associated for over 12 years.
the elders tracked him down after all that time and said they wanted to have a committee meeting so that they could disfellowship him.

My experience has been that these long distance things are almost always based on some relative requesting that the individual be called on. Usually there's a letter detailing the circumstances of the individual they want the Elders to approach. If the Elders are heavy handed in this situation it's because that's their nature, or the nature of the local body. There is no mechanism for tracking people down across the nation that I've ever heard of.

The CO won't come any where near you. They don't want any thing to do with that stuff, and the local Elders don't want the CO around because there's a risk you might say something that will put them in an unfavorable light.
