look up the article in the wall st journal "how smartphones hijack our minds".
a flood of evidence has come in that people are outsourcing their thinking to their electronic devices.
when you feel you will always be able to look up important information on your cell phone you simply don't remember it.
Vidiot- Did the Org really need smartphones and tablets?
In my opinion, if they were to survive, yes. If everyone is spending more and more time on the internet because its readily accessible, they can steer one to use devices to be able to go to jworg so the GB, Elders can say that their is no excuse not not spend time on the site while wasting ones time looking on the internet. Plenty of jws had social media profiles before jworg got going. Try as they may, they couldn't stop it.

That was addictive fun. I had to make myself stop LOL.
i heard the crap, smurfs were magical evil creatures.
i saw in the 80s kids parents get talked to because of the kids having one or pjs with smurfs on them but other than the urban meme where did this come from?
was there anything printed about it?
smiddy3 - Talk about being superstitious ,J.W`s. are the most superstitious people I know .
Yes they are. And they would damn near take a bullet trying to prove they are not. Good grief.lol
i thank all of you for the warm welcome and having read my bio.
i look forward to many discussions and hopefully in the future to be able to be open about it with my wife and kids.
but for now i have a question.
Heres just a few things I found. I dont know how legit or relevant to your question.

Reorganization in 2000 resulted in the creation of several additional corporate entities to serve the needs of the United States branch of Jehovah's Witnesses. Since then, most written communication with congregations and individuals in the United States involves the Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses, Inc; other corporations include:
175 Pearl Street
Brooklyn, NY 11201

Where can I find legitimate sources to show where the WTBS invests their money?
I guess to directly answer that question is keep following the money.
what could you say to prove to a witness that they simply do not have the truth?.
A very big media frenzied scandal of members of the governing body themselves being pedophiles 'gay wouldn't even cut it' along with footage. Or a member of the GB becoming an American president. Something so public so global and on every news station for a several years solid.
OR Website goes down for many many months. Website getting banned globally?
All unlikely. Except maybe several GB pedophiles.

alanv-The main change in recent years in JW land is for members to stop trying to defend their faith by themselves, but rather to point people to the jw website.
I remember when this type of thing would be cause for someone to be 'spiritually weak'. Now its the norm.So easy to search your spiritual 'symptom' - 'question' into the search bar on the site and get an answer that "tickles the ears".
The absolute sheer irony. And quite the flip.
Smartphones have already changed the world we live in. jw,jew,movie star, politics, kids, teens, colleges, lawyers, ect ect ect......
It has been and continues to be an unstoppable force. The GB simply had to no choice but to modify to fit in with the new technology. Seems they've always liked to stay on the fringes of modern with out being "modern". This was/is to big a global shift.
I guess in paradise selfies will be real popular as everyone grows younger "New videos on jworg about this and that one growing younger". "Submit your 'growing younger' process to jworg and be featured in the '1000 year Reign Times". LOL" Brother Smith grows half his leg back in two months, Stay tuned to see next months article on Sister Davis as the last of her multiple personalities merge into one." LOL
I think smartphones for jws probably cause a paradoxical mixture of guilt and another cognitive dissonance item in the bag.

Wild_thing -My other friends in congregation were not so lucky. Several of them were forced to get rid of every trace of Smurf toys in their house. After stories circulated about Smurfs walking in to Kingdom Halls, and one about a Smurf keychain standing up and talking, one little kid in our congregation said his stuffed Smurf toy talked to her (or so the mother said). So, out the Smurf toy went, and the frenzy continued among the JW radicals.
I was one of those in the not so lucky 'jw Smurf paranoiac radical frenzy' households. But literally everything was considered demonic. Thats so traumatizing to a child and confusing, the way it played out in some jw homes. Nothing short of psychotic.
I had no toys. LOL.
When my son was little I spoiled him and bought him tons and tons of toys . I probably went overboard. I wanted to be the cool jw parent back then.
i think this is a well developed discussion, of ian stevenson's work in investigating people's past lives claims.
it's a little long.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0attm9hgcdw.
Why does it seem like C.O.'s think they are so damn funny? It could be the lamest joke ever and the entire cong laughs like they were high or something.
my friend has been married 25 years.
he works with another jw.
they kissed and he touched her nipples but did not have sex with her.
First off you guys LMAO!
New boy-They will ask about the size and shape of her nipples.
Why in the hell do elders have to be so nosy ? Fucking nasty ass jealous mutha F'ers.
