by Designer Stubble in

**announcement october 28, 2020 for congregations** .

[read after the watchtower study the week of october 26, 2020.\] 2021 regional convention: many have expressed great appreciation for the special arrangement to benefit from the 2020 regional convention during this coronavirus pandemic.

because of the uncertainty of holding large gatherings in 2021 and the evidence of jehovah’s blessing on this year’s convention program, the governing body recently approved the following arrangements for the 2021 regional convention program.

If I was still a PIMO I would be thrilled. Wake up late, don’t drive anywhere or pay for a shitty hotel where I’m commanded to dress as a “delegate” at all times, ect. Don’t pay all the gas $$$. Don’t get all sweaty parking cars, or walking through hella crowded halls of sweaty dubs who are completely unaware of anyone in their mad dash for the “best” seats. I would be thrilled to not have my ass go numb in a shitty seat at facility that just hosted a Rodeo the week before and reeked of cow shit and was hot AF because the cheap ass douche bags kissing the the DO’s ass won’t run the AC...

I would let the wife ( Ex now ) get dressed up if she wanted and I would NOT listen to the spiritual music program and I would NOT be in my seat on time, and I would NOT sing the dumb shit songs, and I WOULD eat my breakfast with coffee as I walked around in my underwear...

Always Obey

by neat blue dog in

the life story in the latest wt has a running theme that keeps popping up: if the organization tells you to do something, you do it.

this culminates in the following anecdote:.

we were staying in abrother’s home right next to a kingdom hall.. .

The Japanese don’t traditionally have the same hang ups about nudity that Americans have. Whole families would have bath time, ect, so maybe it wasn’t a big deal to them at all?

Even so, that’s one weird-ass experience to include in an article on obedience.

Anthony Morris depicts ex-members as ''Despicable Apostates''

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

here is one of the many commandments jesus instructed his twelve apostles to keep, follow, and obey!.

here is anthony morris ( supposedly selected by jehovah to keep, follow and obey the sayings of jesus ) name-calling and condemning enemies!

the pharisees used to label people as well.

The Sin Jehovah`s Witnesses Are Guilty Of.?

by smiddy3 in

are jehovah`s witnesses guilty of committing the unforgivable sin ?.

“i am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of christ and are turning to a different gospel—not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of christ.

but even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed.

That’s one hell of a controlling scripture if you think about it. Paul, or some modern day preacher can really keep the flock in line with that doozy of a verse..

What if the being who reportedly appeared to Paul in a vision wasn’t really Jesus? Now here’s Paul basing his teaching on something that could be “Demonic” but he’s telling the flock not to believe Angels over his message.

So if Jesus sends an Angel to someone and that message contradicts what Paul says...?

What a marvelous passage to support any interpretation of the Gospel and to tell any given flock that you’re Da Troof, whatever your denomination.

I guess you would have to believe that Paul was legit in order to believe his writings, and therefore believe the “unforgivable sin” exists.

I remember being in the second grade and I didn’t understand why one of my teachers was mean to me and my Mom....

I can still remember sitting in my Mom’s Station Wagon, and hearing her say, “They like to say the Organization said the world was ending in 1975, so our beliefs aren’t true.”

Wow... It’s crazy the things we forget until the right stimulus comes along...

Was this what the original article really said, or did they go back and edit it like they’ve done with so many others?

“Our chronology, however, which is reasonably accurate (but admittedly not infallible), at the best only points to the autumn of 1975...”

Today s wt

by road to nowhere in

quote from the introduction:.

some apparently claimed to have received a special, mystical knowledge from god.e but their teaching contradicted jesus’ message and encouraged selfishness and a lack of love.

so john calls these teachers antichrists, or those who teach against christ.

DATA-DOG

Or, John calls them the “Governing Body of CCJW.”

The GB and their disgusting, pedophile protecting Lawyer scum are deserving of nothing but disrespect and need to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law, preferably sued out of existence.

The Rank and File have no protection from MOTHER, and they are on their own. If they get killed at a Trolley cart, or kidnapped/murdered in service, then too bad. They were acting as “individuals” in their “personal ministry.”

Lol, you guys! Thank goodness we are all hilarious.

That picture is ridiculous. What a creeper..

I had this job where I was on call, and it was hot AF... As I’m slaving away on a rooftop, I hear laughing and music. I look down and see young, attractive and financially well off “worldly” folks having a great time at a pool party. These were obviously educated people who probably had a tech job to afford the luxury life in the city.

I felt like complete shit to be honest. No professional sports allowed, no higher education allowed, just flea-trained to jump only so high. I really hated life and the cult that day...
