  interesting meeting today.the do had the last talk and he mentioned a couple of things i have not heard before :.

  1) the new lighter magazines are designed in a way to attract people to our website .

  2)the ministry will change to incoprorate preacing in town centres and and with stands as in manhattan and certain brothers will be allocated to do this .so it is done now in a big scale ,organised.. 3)the qr codes at the back of the magazines are there for smart phone users to guide them directly to jw.org ,unlike bad old internet via laptops and pc's that you have to look for the website on google and sometimes end up in enemy websites that look like our website but are spreading lies about jw's (he said exactly that!

  Sure, that could work. If people actually take the magazines. And if they are curious enough to turn them over before they toss them in the trash bin.

  I officially disappeared when I became a pioneer. It was like the Society was saying, "Don't forget your place, woman!"

  An experiment: Open House for Demons

  by return of parakeet in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  i feel cheated that never, not once, as a dub or as a ex-dub, did i experience the presence, manifestation, or just-things-flying-around, of demons.

  not so much as a teacup levitating from its saucer.

  no inexplicable cold spots.

  You'd better read that invitation out loud. It's well known that demons can't read.

  1/15 WT- Guilt, Guilt, and More Guilt ! Black & White Cult Reasoning !

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this particular article was discussed or touched on a couple months ago regarding the wt society's statement concerning jw's putting " jehovah above everything else- including the family bond " .

  so i won't address those points in this thread, but there are many other points to address where the wt society uses guilt and black & white cult reasoning to control jw's minds with this information from the article titled, " let nothing distance you from jehovah ".

  first off in paragraph 5 the wt tries to make people feel guilty looking for work and insists that if you get any job that takes you away from family- it will distance you from jehovah !

  That WT 1/15 is EXACTLY the kind of #%$! that was printed on a regular basis in the 1970s.

  I was thinking that this rhetoric wasn't new. I remember that bit about not being able to be appointed if your job prevented you from making all the meetings.

  I always hated the fact that I never got a day off from the pantyhose. I'd have to get dressed up every weekday for work and then Saturday and Sunday mornings too. Sometimes I just wanted to bum around in my pajamas and have pancakes for breakfast on a Saturday morning, but my conscience (read: WT guilt tripping) would push me out the door.
