  I challenge any jw to comment "I'm not sure what the answer is, as I've known a few of the friends have died from vaccine side effects", and watch the jaws drop.

  I would take up that challenge, except I would have to go to a kingdom hall to do so, and it will be the proverbial cold day in Hell before I submit myself to that misery.

  It is a powerful virus that can travel on the internet.

  Yet a weak enough virus that it can only travel 6 feet. 5 feet 11 1/2 inches and you're screwed, 6 feet 1 inch and you're home free.

  sisters were hounded to keep their dresses and skirts at exactly the middle of their knees!

  The congregations I was in BITD would have had that poor sister in the back room for some strong counsel on not stirring up the hormones and sexual desires of men. Get that dress down to mid-calf or the ankle you Jezebel!

  But How is that Different from all the Child Sexual abuse committed by "Holy Spirit Appointed Elders" that has been covered up since the 50s according to the ARC?

  She isn't one of the "Holy Spirit Appointed Elders" that must be worshiped by the R&F.

  I wonder if the GB will say anything about it...

  Not if she makes a huge donation to WT. As one "elder" suggested to me several years ago, "Why get married? If you want sex just hire a couple hookers when you are in Las Vegas. Then when you get home go confess, and claim a moment of weakness. If you offer to make a BIG contribution to the hall you will get off."

  This from a guy that cheated on two wives, was a chronic drunk, committed tax fraud more than once, but always manage to drop a thousand in the money box every month.

  Hospitality for visiting speakers. Host congregation is supposed to ask if visiting speaker needs travel assistance.

  It ain't hospitality if it is assigned or mandated!

  Is it first come first served when it comes to the parking spots nearest the building or do disabled people have preference, marked spots for disabled only?

  There should be. The last CONvention I went to was 11 years ago in order to take my aged disabled parents who pleaded with me to take them. Every. Single. Last. handicap/disabled designated parking spot was "reserved" for the governing body and New York heavies who were there. I was grudgingly allowed by the parking "nazis" to pull up to the front of the venue and drop them off. Then I had to leave as they struggled to get into the venue, and by the numbers on my odometer drive over one-half mile to park, then walk back to the venue in order to assist them. To top it off we had to put up with towel "nazis" who kept yapping about, "Only one paper towel square per person."

  I never took my parents to another one, and I refuse to put up with that s--t from anyone, especially the moron jw's that get a little power over others.

  JW internal culture is destroying everything that makes a Jehovah’s Witness

  by ukpimo in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the entire internal religious culture of the watchtower organization is harmful for its current members.

  the culture seems to traverse ethnic and national barriers.

  however, the worst of each culture all around the world appears to have a symbiotic relationship with the religion in an attempt to make the org fanciful in every nation and locality.

  Another aspect or the internal culture is the present aloof state of the congregation elders around Britain. They do not take their sheep seriously. Nothing will ever please them.

  That isn't just Britain. That is what I find to be a common complaint in every congregation where there are still ones who are in that talk to me have.

  "instructions that aren't sound by a human standpoint"

  WTS refers to Acts 15 to prove there is a governing body, but that phrase never occurs in the bible even the RNWT.

  You are correct. The only reference to 'governing body' is a WT term inserted in the ** nwtsty Acts Study Notes—Chapter 15 ** It is a JW term, and interesting that in that reference it is not capitalized about those elders while when they refer to themselves they do capitalize the G and the B as in an assumed title.

  Reminds me of what Jesus said in the first eleven verses of Matthew 23 about the Pharisees in his day.

  Of course, Jesus did not tell us that his faithful slave would produce perfect spiritual food.

  Well JW's cannot be so picky. After all a perfect God and a perfect Jesus just cannot be expected to furnish food that is perfect. The JW's need to be satisfied with the spoiled food that the gibbering boobies give them that would otherwise be thrown out.
