Oh Irony of ironies: Googling for a problem caused by the WT and getting a solution from JW.org :-(

by BluePill2 in

i have to share this with you.. after leaving the borg i had to concentrate to solve so many personal problems (financial, child custody, etc.

) that it left me with a poor social life.

i just didn't have the nerve/time to make new friends.

Thank you for your observations.

I have been thinking about this (and the implications). Having worked for a couple of years with SEO (Search Engine Optimization) seeing this result is quite strange.

A short sentence like that can have high search volume (haven't checked), so I asked myself how the heck did the Borg manage to rank so high with low content (they mostly link to their literature, the site is not content heavy for friend related stuff).

Also, the get better Google rankings you NEED backlinks (unless you are a news agency, where results show up within minutes or a couple of hours). I had customers who needed several hundred (or thousands) of links from other relevant sites to rank high.

The Borg is not "partnering up" with sites related to youth problems. Nobody is linking back to them (some witnesses, some facebook accounts). So, this result puzzles me.

The kick in the balls was a good analogy, by the way...

I have to share this with you.

After leaving the Borg I had to concentrate to solve so many personal problems (financial, child custody, etc.) that it left me with a poor social life. I just didn't have the nerve/time to make new friends. I go out regularly and have some acquaintances, but very few are more than that.

Like everybody else, I lost all my "friends" etc. I don't feel lonely, but nevertheless I just googled:

"i don't have any friends"

Googles second listing is this:

Why Don't I Have Any Friends? | Young People Ask

www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/family/.../dont-have-friends-feel-lonely/ You're not the only one to feel lonely or that you don't have any friends. See how others counteract these feelings. Get facts about friendship and loneliness. So, I ask Google for a solution to a problem that was created by the ORG and get a recommendation to ask the ORG! Is this the definition of Irony? I hate to see them giving advice to unsuspected kids that type the same thing like me, to end up in a cult that will rob you of your real friends. Truly perverted. You might get different search results, as Googles algos depend on many factors. Would be interesting to know if you get the same result though (wondering if the Borg has catched up about the SEO thing, hopefully not)

that's the word according to my mil.

mrs hoser is starting a new career and the college and work training will take her four years to complete.

her mom is giving her a hard time telling her that the system will be over before she graduates.

I once wanted to put some new wall paper in my apartment. I was pioneering and we didn't had enough money, but that apartment looked like shit. Our "Special" UBER-UBER-Elder (former CO) came by and said it wasn't worth it. The glue wouldn't be dry and Armageddon would be here.

That was 20 years ago.

His wife died with cancer and he didn't even wait 2 months to marry a 20's something year old pioneer sister (he was 57 at the time). Guess, Armageddon wasn't too much around the corner to wait for his wife's resurrection, or maybe I'm just being picky and cynical.

My Parents have gone FULL CULT MODE! Having a job is SATANIC!

by BU2B in

friends

to give a little background, my parents are in their late 50s.

around a year ago, my elder dad got laid off from his job.

he worked as a auto mechanic making ok money.

BluePill2

Same like my parents. This is easy: Reality will teach them a lesson. Hard, but true.

My parents also live in extreme poverty (after donating and pioneering for years, same as my sisters). The only difference is I'm a Apostate and they are to proud to call me and ask for anything. I can see that Jokebar is not providing for them. Neither Satan offering jobs. They are both on the golf course laughing their asses off.

A spiritual man does not wear colourful socks.

we encourage all to be examples to the flock.. jesus stated, as recorded in matt 5:29 .

' if, now, your right eye is making you stumble, tear it out and throw it away from you.+ for it is better for you to lose one of your members than for your whole body to be pitched into gehenna'.. we certainly do not want to stumble or, worse yet, be a stumbling block to the congregation.

evidently jesus was stating a principle here in matthew that he intended true christians to apply to all aspects of their lives and not just their eyes.

You see? You see how the colorful socks thread is making me sin? I am getting all these "Beautiful Ukrainian Girls" ads. I'm outta here. Got to check on the Ukrainian girls. Bye.

So much bird food, man oh man, the birds will have a feast of fashionable gay men...

"Mommy, why is Uncle Herbert being disfellowshipped?"

"Child, look at his socks! This is disgusting to Jehovah. He simply hates colorful socks. Uncle Herbert probably also uses Spandex under that suit. He deserves to die. Now go and paint the battle over Jericho..."

FuGK This Religion- Stop Ruining My Life!!!

by wallievase in

i am sorry for the title but today just took the cake.

after not going to the meetings since august and trying to sort through this with my family, my wife today told me she wants to separate because of our differences over being a witness or not.. this is ridiculous.

so i said- how can you separate from me when the religion you whole heartedly believe says you can only separate for 3 reasons- abuse, willful non-support, or stopping her from her meeting attendance, etc.

BluePill2

wallievase: This cult will never stop ruining peoples Lifes. Stick around and read some of our stories...there are some pretty fucked up stories!

I was in your situation, although everybody experiences this in a somewhat different way, but at least you have a community here to hang on to until your Life turns to the better.

Nobody can take a decision for you and nobody can take the pain off you because of whatever decision you take, but I can assure you that time helps to heal wounds - if you let the process do its work. Human beings are incredibly adaptive and you will find a way to deal with this. I can guarantee you that. Thousands others have dealt with this. You can too.

We are here to hear you. Drop your baggage off, cry, scream and then "after the storm" let the healing & calmness begin.

I lost my whole family, my wife and child to the cult.

JW.ORG REPORTS THE WATCHTOWER RESPONSE TO EBOLA

by NAVYTOWN in

friends

i just checked the jw.org website and noticed an article about the jw response to ebola.

as i suspected, the entire focus was on alerting and educating jw members about ebola.just like in other disaster situations, the jw organization almost exclusively assists it's own members, ignoring the general public.

it seems their main concern is keeping their members healthy so they can continue to spread the jw message door to door!!!
