You and Obama graduated from the school? What school? You went to school with Obama? You know him? I had no idea whatsoever that real people perform these jobs. Thank you. You are such a fountain of information and knowledge.

JW businessman's email about the UN and false religion
by Las Malvinas son Argentinas ini was shown a hard copy of an email from a purported jw businessman who claimed he had contact with some un officials as part of his 'business'.
in conversation, he claimed that he blurted out and asked them when they were going to clamp down on religion as foretold in jw prophecy.
according to the account, the un official acted startled, and asked 'how do you know?'.

Más loco que una cabra con pollitos.
Don't give me that much credit - I lived several formulative years of my life in an English speaking country and I started speaking it at 5. I'll soon be speaking it as a primary language when I go abroad this year for studies.

What we need now is a "Has the FBI ever tried to recruit you?" thread.

Brazilian waxing and JWs
by Bella15 inwith all the control they want to have over people's lives, i wonder if going brazilian down there (male or female) would be cause for readjustment???
lol i can see sister a telling the elders on sister b ... lol... i wonder what scriptures they would use to make their point across ... i know that for non-jw this would sound totally crazy but as an ex-jw i know that this is totally possible ....

That's funny. I would ask any elder who brought this subject up how he found out this information, and furthermore how his 'source' saw it in the first place. I would assert my rights in the 'two witness rule' principle.

jgnat - That's what I was thinking. It's a pure JW fantasy that the UN was coming for them and religion as a whole. Not only would it be contrary to the charter and the nature of the organisation, but I would think that a good majority of states would vote against it. This might be a leftover from the days when the Soviet voting bloc was powerful and that they would instigate such a move in line with their official athiest state policies. I think that the only officially 'athiest' state left is North Korea. Even Cuba has allowed religion to come back.

Fake money in contribution boxes
by enigma1863 insomeone posted a great idea i felt should have its own discussion thread.
i think it would be really cool if we could get people around the country or world to donate fake money in the contribution boxes that have thought provoking messages.
kinda like money tracts.

That would be well worth it just to be responsible for inevitable JW rumour mills and general paranoia about apostates infiltrating their assemblies.

Has anyone here seen anything like this? I was shown a hard copy of an email from a purported JW businessman who claimed he had contact with some UN officials as part of his 'business'. In conversation, he claimed that he blurted out and asked them when they were going to clamp down on religion as foretold in JW prophecy. According to the account, the UN official acted startled, and asked 'How do you know?'. The JW proceeds with his witness about Revelation, and the UN guy then confirmed that something like that was in the works at the UN. It sounded contrived and manipulated, almost as if the UN official could see where he was going as a JW and decided to have fun with him. I could see it, but this hapless buffoon couldn't.
That part of the prophecy always rang the wrong bells for me. I knew that JWs went on and on about false religion and 'Chistendom', but it always sounded like they had an axe to grind against the Roman Catholic Church amongst other mainstream Christian sects. With Europe and the West in general becoming ever more secular in outlook, with the obvious JW glee that church attendance was dropping, it made a lot of sense to a JW that was still in. But looking at the larger picture and that there are now somewhere around a billion Muslims (who would also fall under the umbrella of 'false religion' as anything alien to Brooklyn), I see no such move by the UN. In fact, there is now such a huge Islamic bloc in the UN that would make any such resolution dead on arrival, not to mention the inevitable violent backlash wherever there's a Muslim population.
Is the UN clamping down on false religion yet another JW prophecy that is on its way out?

Weird rumor I heard - JWs in Sweden
by sir82 ini heard this from a "friend of a friend of a friend...." at least 3 or 4 intermediate steps before i heard it.. so it is likely distorted, but i'll throw it out there in case someone in or near sweden can clarify it.. .
i heard that the wts branch in sweden instructed all jws there to "get rid of" all (empahasized all) of their printed literature, and rely exclusively on the content of jw.org for their literature.. .
that's the entire extent of it - i also got a few speculations about "what it might mean" (the society is expecting persecution!

Two Witnesses stuck in a elevator or car without Chaperon. Would they fornicate? Yes/No
by Witness 007 inim amazed how going witnessing sisters who knew me for decades would sit only in the back seat on the way to the hall...to avoid any sex at the traffic lights!!!
and chaperons 1840's style are needed because two witnesses alone for 10 minutes would go at it like animals even after all the training watchtower articles and talks being jahs clean org.
and all..

By 'ruse', I mean that that there was this particular elder who would seek out young, un-baptised teens and arrange to study with them. Everyone thought this was a noble gesture and he gained a great reputation from it. It just so happened that the young ones he sought out also had sisters, and soon he had them brought along, with the brother unwittingly acting as the 'chaperone'.

They promote just like any multi-million dollar business would, with the caveat that they only promote from within. Successful candidates must show a long CV of field service, pioneering, missionary work, Gilead, Circuit/District Overseer, and finally, executive positions at Bethel or at a branch. Being fluent in a few languages is a plus. Must have several strong references, including at least one from within the Governing Body.
