  these grads.

  are a special people indeed.

  how on earth they put up with all this indoctrination is beyond me, months of intense brainwashing.

  I wonder about the current curriculum at Gilead since Splane debunked most of Freddie Franz's "type-anti-type" parallels which purported to prefigure the remnant and which made up so much of the content taught there:

  JW Carts Cause Thousands to Start Studying!!!

  by Drifting Away in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i would love to know the stats of how many hours were spent, standing by a cart, or sitting at a local town fair with jw table tent set up, compared to the number of bible studies started that led to baptism since the inception of the carts.

  anyone have any idea?

  if i had to guess i would say thousands of hours pent standing by a cart, and maybe less then 5 that actually got baptized.

  I can't think of a less productive way of disseminating a dire "join us or face imminent death" message than by standing mutely alongside a literature cart like the old Cigar Store Indian (I wonder how many cigars those Indians sold, anyway.)

  " So it's 11 years old but still they were stressing against independent thinking way back then."

  When have they ever done otherwise?

  Letter about changes in book 100 year kingdom

  by Rather Be the Hammer in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  yesterday a letter was read in our congregation.

  it said that there have been doctrinal changes in many chapters of the book 'god's kingdom rules' so everyone but especially the conductor must be sure to use the latest update of the book.. this book is only ...how old?

  two years?

  You're fired!...Damage control in October broadcast

  by ab.ortega in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  this new broadcast features interviews with bethelites from south africa that were fired reassigned to the ministry field.

  i almost feel sorry for these people who gave their all thinking they would be taken care of for who-knows how many years.

  however they were let go in the blink of an eye.

  It would seem they are exporting a considerable percentage of disillusioned, disgruntled 40/50-somethings into the local congregations; it's gonna hard be for at least some of them not to vent their gripes to the locals.

  Why cant Judicial Committees be taped?

  by HereIgo in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i have never understood this.

  was it because of legal reasons?

  i cant think of any other reason why it wouldn't be allowed, but i know the elders ask you repeatedly that you are not taping.

  More money-grubbing: Give us your money even if you can't afford food

  the message would appear to be that jehovah needs money more than that old lady needs food:.

  They're really going off the rails; this is another example of why they split the Watchtower off into two editions; to hide this type of hard-core craziness from the uninitiated public.

  PRESS RELEASE: This is not over, on the contrary. I do not retract.

  by sp74bb in

  2. friends

  i appreciate all the expressions of interest and solidarity.

  it has been a very intense week.

  i started with the help of many of you, a particular war for my rights as a european citizen.. we have achieved an important space and advertising with a single complaint, which is a great success that i share with you all.. the press has not only spoken about a single complaint, but they gave a full coverage on asocial behavior of jehovah's witnesses and the last, a very hard editorial from the newspaper el periodico director (link).
