"to the stake with him" instead of just a simple single english word, crucify . The writers went to great lengths to make up this phrase just so they can delete a form of a word that refers to a cross. Impale never fit either.

What checks and balances are there in place to keep a greedy GB member or someone higher up to just keep some of the money? Kind of like the story revealed last month of 2 nuns were found out of stealing over $500,000.00 from their church over a 10 year period and using the money to go on vacations to mostly casino lined cities.

Shocking Example of JW Elder Corruption
by Roger Kirkpatrick inlet's play a game of believe it or not, shall we?
i'll relate a story, and you decide whether you believe it or not.
what would you think of an elder who told his daughter's fiance that he would kill him if he ever did anything to hurt his daughter?

Years ago I bought a cheap truck from an elder who said it ran great and was reliable transportation. I paid him cash and I got maybe 10 miles away and the engine blew. I never trusted another elder after that.

by minimus inthere are a lot.
anything blood related was difficult to reasonably prove from a witness perspective.. 1914 was another one.
what can you add to the list?

Why Mother,s Day and Father,s Day were somehow evil, or for that matter, Thanksgiving.

"We have the Hospitality this sunday" This phrase made me cringe because I don't think anyone wanted to take out or feed a "visiting speaker".

The Reasons for Cart Witnessing
by Simon inwhatever we think of it, you have to admit that it's quite "genius".. the door to door ministry as done in western developed countries where the jw quirky religion has probably reached their saturation level was a complete and utter waste of time in terms of the effort expended to recruit people.. at the same time, it was rarely something that anyone enjoyed which led to people being labelled as inactive, being pressured to doing more and maybe ultimately deciding jwism wasn't for them and leaving.. there was also the issue that many jws are actually pretty bad at knowing and articulating their beliefs so were pretty incapable of getting any meaningful message across.. they solved all this with the cart witnessing.
the real point isn't to recruit, it's to make life easier for jws.
now they can stand and chat with their friend, have a coffee, not talk to anyone or make eye contact and still act as a walking billboard for jw.org.

Maybe they should try this so they can show their "award winning" videos.
Didn't they use to walk around with billboards announcing that religion is a snare and a racquet? Now they themselves are the snare and a racquet. Personally when I see walking ads or a blow up doll whaling its arms wildly, I am not influenced in any way to approach that product, maybe backing away and avoiding the idea being promoted.
