the guy everyone loves to hate, bob, has come up with a classic:.
redefining the concept of "critical thinking" when it comes to jws.. he quite correctly states the need to use critical thinking when reading the bible, yet we all know that pimi jws don't have the first clue what "critical thinking" really means, especially on a thread fawning over how great the gb are and guessing who will be presenting the next jwb!.
the link to the actual comment is:.
Never thought i'd say this, but i think i hate Bob just as much as Tony Morris.
Bob, JWHess, and Trottigy all should be dropped out of an airplane at 30,000 feet with only two chutes and let them figure out who would sacrifice themselves for the other two.
i could barely stand listening to it.
watching the jw pushers at the same time was too much.

My thoughts exactly. Why is that tub-o-blubber not booted for gluttony? He surely cannot have a genuine metabolic disorder!
i think he is.
if you don’t want to put reasons for your yes or no, it’s ok. .
your vote,please?
Anyone who can protect the children must be good.
It must be true, here is a picture of it.
dear michelle, .

but dont worry im not going to lecture you.
If t hey had an ounce of intelligence that is where they would have stopped writing.
not quite a week ago, @lost in the fog created a thread entitled: do you have this illness?.
https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5187824140681216/do-you-have-this-illness.
in my year of being on this forum, i have browsed many a disillusioned thread of ex-jehovah’s witnesses expressing similar symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder when detailing their awakening - my own story included.
Jehovah’s Witnesses have been groomed to possess inherently lazy thinking abilities.
So very true! I saw first hand evidence of that over on another site where the Dubbies spout off mindless drivel about everything they are told with never a thought about it. And anyone that expresses a different thought is pretty well dog-piled on. Even a very cautiously worded comment about being "confused" by the pretzel logic of the overlapping generation get private P.M.s galore. "Brother, you must not think so much! The governing body has it right. We just need to wait on Jehovha!"
i wonder sometimes just how jws try and comprehend what perfect life would really be like if "adam and eve" had not sinned?.
how would we live?
what would the realities be like?
Of course, none of them had ever been on a horse.
Or had to clean up behind it! Sounds like their paradise would be pretty shitty!
how often have we heard some sort of sensationalist urban legend as jws?.
here is an example i was told as a kid:.
the experience of a sister who knocked on a door and was greeted by a big fierce looking man- intimidating and mean.
The one I heard was about a C.O. who in the early 1970's was on his first tour of duty in Kentucky (USA). He stopped in a barber shop in some out of the way Holler for a haircut when he very first arrived. When he was comfortably seated the barber's voice changed to something out of The Exorcist and the barber growled, "You killed our children at the flood, now we are going after your children!" The claim was that the barber did not know him, or that he was a JDub. So how could the barber make that comment except by the aid of demunz.
here are some quotes by the guy, from his youtube channel.
his name is stefan molyneux, and he’s apparently popular among the alt-right crowd.
he’s also widely quoted on these discussion boards, by certain ex-jws, who use him to help promote their political views.
I have know some very high I.Q. people in my life up to this point, however with only one or two exceptions they have been some of the most stupid people when it comes to everyday, practical life smarts. Just sayin'.
i know someone who's family is very spiritual and says that her brother only pioneers and does not want to become an elder for various reasons, probably not wanting to deal with people's problems, and also the tremendous workload they put on them.
is this considered refusing advancement by god, or just choosing your own way?
he has not been "tapped" to become one, but he merely hasn't strived to become one..
I also had pretty much the same conversation as Stuck. I was told that if I, "were to reach out and be appointed it would free up time for the eldurrs to visit with the flock". I told them, "NO. If I were to be appointed I would be just as busy running around trying to look important just like you, and then I wouldn't have the time to spend visiting with the Ama-Arets of the congregation either! NO THANKS!"
one of the most unbelievable privileges that a brother could have was being a microphone handler.
elders would discuss brothers for hours and see whether or not we would allow them to mow the lawn or handle a mike.
i always felt that these brothers were doing us a favor but if they didn't get a minimum of 10 hours in per month, they were dog crap and couldn't have any privileges.
There was a mid week meeting when no one showed up to run the sound. Guess who they came to?
I had the opportunity to work with sound systems for a number of decades. Think civic arena's and world famous entertainers. I was asked to run the sound at the local KH in almost the exact same situation. I refused. I may have to fill a seat for the sake of still in family for awhile, but "soon" that will change.
