  How I see it in JW land

  they're tired... sooooo soooo tired.

  they know it's all wrong but they keep telling themselves how wonderful it is.

  almost as if they are trying to convince themselves.

  They're running out of ideas... The "dirty 30" gimmick just before the memorial has lost its appeal with adult JWs while the Caleb child videos are starting to lose their effectiveness on JW children... So what are they to do? ... That's easy... invite everyone to the annual meeting via Dell projector and announce a new Bible...

  This should be interesting...

  Will Lack of Leadership Sink the JW Ship?

  by Seeker4 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i see serious problems with the leadership of the witnesses on two important levels: locally, in smaller bodies of elders with marginally qualified men carrying heavier workloads, and internationally in a lackluster and unimaginative governing body.

  there are no nathan knorrs, or fred or ray franz's in this pathetic group!

  first, the local elders: .

  OTWO... Interesting scenario... actually, I believe that eliminating the Daily Text from the Field Circus ritual is one of those small things the WT is doing to allow "strong" sisters to take the lead in the congo... it's a matter of time before the WT finally accepts that the Bible does allow some leeway when it comes to women in positions of authority...

  On second thought, I believe they eliminated the Daily Text to avoid having to pay for "permits" to conduct religious services in private homes... never mind...

  St George...

  I hear ya... Only one problem with that... Who is currently appointed over Jesus' belongings now? (i.e.: Watchtower buildings, assembly halls, branch offices, King-Dumb Hells, etc.? Are these "belongings" being administered by Jesus until he hands them over to the 8 pedophiles in the future??? I know it's "twaddle", but I just don't get it...

  Paragraph 19:

  ... Finally, we examined why Jesus’

  arrival to appoint the faithful slave

  over all his belongings did not occur in

  1919 but will take place during the great

  tribulation ...

  So the 8 pedophiles in Crooklyn who have named themselves the "Faithful & Discreet Slave" haven't been appointed yet? wtf?

  Lurkers/faders in the US - a heads up on next week's service meeting (Warwick HQ project to be discussed)

  by cedars in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  hi folks.

  atlantis has very kindly let me see a copy of the aug 21, 2013 letter to all bodies of elders in the united states.. they are being instructed to re-organize the service meeting for the week commencing september 2nd (next week) to include a special recruitment talk to attract skilled volunteer workers for the new warwick hq.. an interesting feature of the letter is its comparison of the project with nehemiah's rebuilding of the walls of jerusalem.

  considering the relocation of hq is financially motivated more than anything, the analogy is more than a little bewildering.. here is a scan of the opening comments of the two-page outline, to be given in the next local needs item.... .

  How to stop Warwick

  by Skinnedsheep in

  2. friends

  i was thinking what a crushing blow it would be to the organization if the warwick project was stalled or held up in court.

  many times a project will run into legal challenges over environmental issues or a lack of planning on the social-traffic- air quality - noise impacts.

  political pressure on the council also can create headaches for the project proponents.. i saw a community once that had an indian casino planned.

  let them spend money...

  the sooner they spend their money, the quicker they'll be gone... they have a good 30 years remaining before they finally sell everything and hand over a fat check to the Rothschild family.
