WT gives up on making disciples! No joke!
by nowwhat? inyep, taps out, throws in the towel, waves the white flag!
in today's watchtower it basically said don't expect any results due to widespread apathy and opposition.
but you can still bear fruit just by going through the motions of being regular in field service.

Insects and arachnids are vicious creatures and we should be glad they are so small otherwise we would all die the most horrific of deaths

How would the Borg view IVF?
by purrpurr inspecifically if an unwed woman decided she wanted a kid without the hassle of dating/relationship /trying to get pregnant etc and just got a sperm doner with ivf?
surely it's not fornication?
the whole process is far removed from sex.

Nothing in life is stable as a Jehovah's Witness...
by silentbuddha inat least in hindsight it would appear so.
i remember as a small kid not making friends because ultimately they were going to die.
i never saved anything because money would be useless in the new world.

Even as an adult witness those things were still in the forefront, but even as a pioneer you knew one slip up and you were no longer on the list. Bethelite... 90 day review, then 9 month review... then everyday thereafter you had to be on your best behavior or you would be kicked out. For god's sake, even if you were put in a nice room at Bethel you had to consistently live in fear that someone who had literally 1 day seniority more than you would bid on it and kick you out with a week.
As an elder, you see a nipple on the internet and your whole life is destroyed...
You literally live your entire life waiting for something and all the while thinking what if I haven't done enough. It is a constant state of worry, a constant state of fear, I almost wonder how people can continue to put up with it. Obviously I can think that way now that I am no longer in, but Jeez that shit is horrible.

was it just me or did it seem that brothers who were known as "heavy" often curse and do things that would shock people just for the fun of it. I remember Br. Sydlik use to use foul language on a regular basis as well.

We are assuming he had dementia based on his unorthodox actions. I think being a Governing Body member is like a lifelong office. Jehobo is supposed to protect their minds I suppose...
The thing is after being at Bethe and having the unfortunate position of cleaning their offices before I was banished to another job these men were just like anyone else you would meet, they were just somehow bestowed with massive massive amounts of authority.
Some were Gluttons, some were vulgar, Br. Barry loved to touch any female that approached him. He was the ultimate creep. These are Christs brothers...
