The kingdom hall is fake. You'll get fake interest shown in you that will fade from their minds as soon as they get in their cars to go home.

You will hear fake reasoning from the platform, and people will nod their heads in fake agreement because they are not allowed to ask what's really on their minds.

The elders will give you some fake lines on how they love you and miss you and want to shepherd you. If it was that important they would have done so before now.

You will be told that this fake way of life is the only way to happiness. That is a fake statement.

You're a genuine gal. You don't belong in a fake world.

by oppostate in

in the article on the guardian ( http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/jul/14/jehovahs-witnesses-evangelism-church-god-armageddon ) mentioned in another thread, there's this quote of mark omalley, who is assigned to the public information desk at the jehovahs witness uk centre in north london.

we now have more than 165,000 [literature] carts on the streets in over 50 countries.

it gives us visibility and availability.

165,000 carts x £20 = £3.3 million every month or so going to the UK WT branch.

The BoE of May 1st 2014 said
6. Requesting public witnessing equipment: The Congregation Service Committee will determine the equipment to be requested and where it will be stored. Public witnessing equipment can be requested in the same way publications are requested. We are pleased to provide a document entitled Public Witnessing Supplies (S-80) that contains sample pictures and descriptions of stand-ard carts, stands, tables, and kiosks. The equipment will remain the property of the congregation. Care should be taken to request only equipment that will be put to good use by publishers who have been trained in its use. The congregation may be informed that the cost of these carts will be covered by their contributions to the worldwide work.

In the UK the posters for use on the trolleys cost about £20 every one or two months.

The 1995 Generation Change

by sloppyjoe2 in

jw
friends

i was just a teenager and have a vivid memory of sitting in a chair doing a microphone for the sunday meeting.

everyone was commenting that it didn't mean the end was far off, and it didn't change the condition of the dead, or the 144,000, or the trinity so we should still remain faithful.

this is my first memory as a kid being just a teen that i ever had a single doubt.

The bit they admitted in 2013 is that they were not appointed in 1919 over all Christ's belongings.

That bit is still future.

They have bragged about Isa 43:10 for too long " 'You are my witnesses' declares Jehovah".

For "JW" to start meaning Jehovah's Worshippers is a huge change.

Huge story unfolding at Warwick

by Crazyguy in

well this is huge on so many levels.

Brokeback Watchtower I can never believe that they bought that land without some type of research done as to what type of waste material a nickle processing company might dump there and have experts examine the area for this type of thing because it is utter stupidity.

You know how the WT works.
Find a 'spiritually qualified' volunteer to do the work. It doesn't matter if they know what they're doing or not so long as they're 'spiritually qualified'.

Seen this a thousand time on builds, with assignments and at conventions.

It's a great way to waste kingdom funds.
