  One Year Later - A Thank You to Tony Morris.

  by cappytan in

  dear anthony morris, iii:.

  i wanted to send you a note of "thanks" on this special day.. why is this day special, you may ask?

  one year ago today, you, tony, woke me up to the fact that the governing body could not have jehovah's blessing or direction.. last year, on november 8th & 9th, 2014, the united states branch visit was broadcast to over 1,000,000 jehovah's witnesses across the country.. as i sat at the kingdom hall listening to the "historic occasion," i was ignoring certain doubts that had surfaced in the few months prior.

  Congratulations, Tony, your historic rant places you in the Guinness Book of Records for the greatest mass stumbling of JWs in history!!

  That's one massive millstone (Mark 9:42) you must be sporting on your thick neck!

  okay, i need to vent.

  as a newly awoken individual, i have yet to "come out" to my hard core jdub parents.

  my plan was to lay low and use my unbelieving husband and baby as an excuse for my "inactivity", it has worked for the last few months.

  It's the sound bite du jour, currently parroted by Circuit Overseers via WT outline.

  No 'Tight Pants' policy is now official - classed as 'disturbing'

  by wizzstick in

  1. watchtower

  in short:- tight pants is no longer just a am3 hang up (or is that a hang up on the well hung?

  )- brothers who have effeminate body language are flagged up- as are sisters with 'masculine' hair styles or dress- such dress is 'disturbing to the congregation'- the above must heed the (repeated) counsel from the elders...or they get stripped of the right to share on the ministry- however...this will not be revealed (announced) to the congregation.

  wow.

  During my first week at Brooklyn Bethel, the head of my table remarked to me "there are a lot of guys here that are "light on their feet." He was a senior member of the Service Department. Most of the guys fitting his description were in the so-called "white collar" jobs, i.e., in the Service Department, Bethel office, or writing.

  Has anyone noticed how in the October JW Broadcast, Losch encourages good works towards ALL people?

  by Tenacious in

  i can't help but notice how this past year alone has seen the gb start to turn more towards the teachings of the christ instead of peddling their falsities.. study articles have talked in length about the fine works of christ.

  assemblies have been dedicated to speaking about christ.

  and this month's broadcast is about doing good to others copying the example christ left for us.. what's more shocking is that losch actually says kids should speak, share, and even give food and clothing to non-believers!!

  Interesting, Gary Breaux was a waiter in the Bethel dining room when I was there.

  Impressions of the Governing Body; who's smart, who ain't?

  by Room 215 in

  2. friends

  based on what we've seen, it seems to me that of the seven, splane and jackson are the smartest; herd, lett and morris the least intelligent; and sanderson and losch somewhere in the middle.

  .

  what's your impression?.

  TV.JW.ORG - October 2015: Neighborly love is more than just Field Service

  by Designer Stubble in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the october 2015 jw broadcast, hosted by gerrit losch is quite positive actually.a lot of focus on "field service" needs to be balanced with other good works - supporting those in need around you - either in the congregation (witnesses) or in your classroom or neighbors (non-witnesses).

  visiting and encouraging the sick and elderly is mentioned.

  jesus parable of the merciful samaritan is highlighted.

  The unprecedented refugee crisis in Europe offers Losch and his teletubby buddies a splendid opportunity to put their collective money where their mouths are.

  Is Watchtower beginning to buckle

  by Truthexplorer in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  is wt beginning to buckle under the weight of everything that is happening?

  heavy criticism from the media and the plethora of websites and youtube videos popping up; and now the obvious issues with finances clearly evident.

  the pressure for change must be immense and therefore necessary!

  Sure, there are unmistakable signs of financial stress; still, the Brooklyn Eagle cited proven matters of record on file with local realtors of their property sales in Brooklyn Heights amounting to $500 million, yet most published estimates I've read on any of the individual WT projects are in the tens of millions... so where's it all going and why the sudden shift to austerity mode?

  I agree with petraglyph, sir82 and inbetween.... it's a preemptive burnishing of their image which they'll retain on file for later PR or legal use.
