they don’t go to conventions .
they don’t go to assemblies.
they don’t go to meetings.
I hear reports of apostate YouTube video binging. People are leaving in higher numbers.
And bloggers here are doing their bit - I know people in my ex cong read stuff here (hiya to ya all:D)
So round of applause to everyone putting out info and doing your bit to encourage these poor trapped people to get out of Watchtower's clutches. It's working.
we hear daily "a woman or color".
one person here mentioned that nikki haley (parents are from india) is a woman of color.. what defines "woman of color?
" is there some scan gun that they put point at your head and defines the pigmentation?.
People talk of race issues when they actually mean values issues.
A Moslem went on to me about issues faced as a Moslem and he defined it all as racism. Moslem is white and acts like a bully.
Question - could Nazis moan at Jews about racism if the Jews distance themselves from them because of the Holocaust? Cause in the end that's what it all comes down to - values. How you treat others. If you really insist on being a horrible murderous, lying so and so, then end up alienated because of it, don't try saying it's cause of your skin colour.
Really it is a good idea to treat people as you would like to be treated youself. Then funnily enough people tend to like you. Not all - but a good few.
I got df'd by WT but guess what, not everyone shuns me - why? Cause I tries to be nice, understanding and patient. Not always easy but worth it.

It's the concept of alienation.
I am a ... [fill in whatever you want so long as you can spin it] = alienated.

What a horrible contract that is. Work your socks off, then DO MORE!
I know ones who would sign on to pioneer that month just to get the applause, then dib out as ill or whatever. Just 'oops' not be able to do it.
So if you are in the know, you know you can sign on to pioneer regularly (or just for the month), then not do the hours.
When I was a regular pioneer and I could no longer get my hours in I spoke to the elders and I was given massive consessions. To keep me on, I reckon I was offered a golden ticket by a CO, '0 hours, its ok, just stay on.' But I knew what it'd look like to the congregation. I'd be held up as an example of a hard working pioneer which they should strive to emulate. I thought that as so cruel to make them feel bad just because they didn't realise I wasn't having to do my hours. They wouldn't get told that.
Anyway I stood down. If I remember correctly... it wasn't announced.
i see ken flodine spelling saying in the new zoom assembly that you should meditate.
when i was in the cult that was a huge no no.
it was called blanking your mind and the demons could take control.
I got thrown out for sticking to the Bible but the drug dealer is welcomed with open arms.
I wouldn't be allowed to comment now if I went to a meeting but he could.

A Groupon green handshake. Oh Rubadub, that is so clever. I take off my bobble hat to you. I am so impressed I'll even take the bobble off my bobble hat.

I was thrown out last year but the several years before this they were telling us to sit in our chairs at the convention when the music started. They were getting really insistent on it. You were supposed to get into the right frame of mind to take in information.
I watch a CO on the platform sit on his chair and look at us all as the music started. Then he flapped around his Watchtower. Looked at it. Looked at the ceiling and waggled his foot. He kept doing that until the music ended.
Guess he was meditating. He looked really bad tempered.
