Is the Governing Body EVIL or IGNORANT?
by cedars insome of you will have noticed that i've been paying a lot of attention to the governing body recently.
this is because most jehovah's witnesses venerate them collectively (even if they can't name them individually), and i feel this makes it important to understand this group of men properly and expose their mindset as individuals.
as the saying goes, i feel it's important to "know your enemy".. i realize it's very convenient to think of the governing body as being "evil" when we consider that they are ultimately responsible for all the damaging jw teachings and beliefs.

Did You Expect To Live Thru The Great Tribulation & Never Die At All?
by minimus ini always had my doubts about that but i was at least hopeful that all would work out as they said.
i saw so many "faithful ones" who were true believers expire before they got the prize, that i started to think it probably wouldn't happen in my lifetime.. what a bunch of suckers, huh?.

I was always very afraid of the Great Tribulation and of being persecuted. This thing about not giving our brother’s names….there were a couple of them I would give without a second thought along with their addresses.
Am I evil?

I agree with her the best way to deal with them is to give them their own medicine (hypocrisy).
No need to be rude, just do it with a nice smile.

Were You Ever Comfortable Going From House To House?
by minimus inbecause i was raised a witness, i don't think i was "uncomfortable" knocking on strangers' doors.
(weirdo).. but as i got older, i simply didn't want to bother anyone so i was at there door for no more than 30 seconds.
at the end i hated being there..

I think they are an easy scapegoat. They don’t seem to mean any harm to others.

King Solomon, what I meant is that the material universe will end up transforming into something else, even if it is in millions of years.

New World Translation Assaults on Language and Phrases that Always Wigged Me Out!
by DarioKehl ini listened to the august 4th episode of the healingxjws podcast where they interviewed a former jw circuit overseer.
he shared many great examples of how original meanings (especially poetry) were lost in this terrible translation.
it's worth listening to.

Sign they are very well aware of their own hypocrisy and that they don’t even believe in God. The Bible warns sternly against adding or taking anything out of it.

The material universe has an expiry date, energy doesn‘t.
In my opinion, the Bible is not a literal book, but it is not a book like any other.
Some people can not get anything out of it, though.

"we were just talking...shes not free to remarry...we werent flirting or doing anything wrong"
by WuzLovesDubs inthats what my soon to be exhusband just said to me.
i finally after 25 years of dealing with him and the jws and a litany of other shit, told him two weeks ago i want out.
he wrote me a letter this week and made a list of allllll the things he hates: about my beliefs, the fact that i left jehovah, broke my vows to god, my hobbies, celebrations, what i watch on tv, my parenting, keeping the kids out of the jws, not having any friends....and then said well i dont hate "you".

Wuzlovesdubs, this story seems to repeat itself over and over, they must have a secret manual on how to end a marriage and still look like the innocent part.
Personally I think he may be having a very physical affair with this sister, I have seen elders doing that for years while giving very nice talks at the hall and fooling everyone.
You are dealing with an hypocrite here, act accordingly.
Enjoy the rest of your life, and give him absolutely no explanations. If he harass you in any way, call the police.
You will be much better off without him. All the best.

Might be. Whatever people choose to believe, shows what THEY are.

It is interesting the point she makes at the end, that after mentioning how bad apostate sites are, they point out to theirs. It’s almost like if they are directing people to these sites.
Scary to think, that they preach that Gog of Magog will attack Jehovah’s people when Jehovah incites him to, using a strategic move.
They are preparing the rank and file for persecution on the one hand, and on the other they seem to be provoking it. Maybe they believe they are Jehovah himself.
Just a thought.
