Simon's Board!
by Atlantis inthe watchtower witch-hunters are still sending out subpoena's and closing down websites.
it is safer for simon, this board, and us if we send out internal confidential documents privately.. from time to time i will let you know something has arrived that you might want.
just send us a "pm" and we will give you the download links.. you do not need to include any personal information.

How Is The Governing Body Viewed Today By Jehovah’s Witnesses?
by minimus inare they revered like the pope is to catholics??
back in the 1960s , fred franz and n.h knorr were the only men that counted.
after franz died, the governing body became more of an idolized entity.

Cognitive dissonance
When people holds two beliefs that contradict one another.
The continued selling of kingdom halls yet a continued expansion.
Keep on begging for money when Russell said if we have to beg for money no longer have god's blessings.
The child abuse scandals and the two witness rule.
The danger of the internet yet know use it for almost everything.
So people see one thing but still feel that they should trust the governing body.

July 2020 Watchtower - A little observation
by Listener inthis is a comment made in the latest study watchtower under the main discussion of humility.
11 jehovah values humility more than ability and unity more than efficiency.
therefore, do your best to serve jehovah with humility.

True humility would give you the courage to admit that your wrong and then do whatever is needed to correct it.
The governing body will never do that because of pride .

Coping/Living/Understanding
by justangel ini’m relatively new to this forum but am far from new when it comes to living life as a jw.
i wanted to throw out there my own personal experience and feelings and welcome any conversations (i’m mighty chatty and don’t have much for friends when it comes to jw’s) .
i hit the turning of an era nearly a month ago of legally becoming an adult, raised as a j dub my whole life.

Hi justangel welcome
Sorry to read what your going through ,
Physiological manipulation and coercive control is used by JWs who claim to love you and have your best interest at heart in the same way domestic abusers use it to control their victims as someone on the road to be a survivor of both .
You could think about possibly contacting a domestic abuse agency's and explain the situation at home , there very good at listening and it's anonymous and confidential.

Good idea
There's a YouTube video of a zoom suit but I don't know how to upload it would be good for any who zooms the meeting and how to drink beer during the meeting.

Does prophesy negate free will?
by Tim207 innot sure if this is in the right subject but here it goes.
i’ve asked this question to a few elders and bethelites but they don’t seem to understand or like the question.
to start off we have to agree that jehovah is all powerful.

So who is to blame ?
A child born and then is abused was that predestined for that child?
The person who abused that child were they predestined to abuse that child?
or is your god for the predestination of this situation?
Just asking a question

Philippino people like America and the Catholic church is loosing it's influence over the people and their is a lacks men to serve as priests etc , so if any truth in the report the people might be drawn to a American cult that promises something better.
How many of that 30000 believed that they qualified to go to heaven to be with Christ as a high percentage of them are of a Catholic upbringing.
