fantastic new video by the lovely susan gaskin and friend andrea discusses the huge variety of exjw opinions and why our supposed disunity is in reality our strength.
the witnesses will claim we cannot agree and there are nothing but fights and a lack of harmony within our community whereas they are the most unified religion who believe the same things where ever you go.
however andrea points out that this is just an illusion, there is no unity amoung jws.
Uniformity is not the description I'd ever consider applying to Jehovah's Witnesses worldwide. The word which describes every aspect of JW's lives is CONFORMITY, a system whereby any independent thinking will readily stand out and can be quickly dealt with.
"behaviour that is acceptable because it is similar to the behaviour of everyone else." (Macmillan Dictionary)
hahaha, i’m so “brazen”, lol.
but we’ve had the jws be pretty active in our territory recently, and i got to say this to them on two separate occasions, to three different borgites, lol!
(it was a glorious moment for me, haha!).
Love it, and gonna use it - as long as I ain't infringing your copyrights! :)
I'll bet they were all cringing. Wonderful.

@ DARK - Assumed slimboyfat was quoting overall expenditure/savings for the year = "Also notice the financial figure is down: $202 million spent this year compared with $213 million last year."
Silly me, the org will never be transparent about its balance sheets.

i'd like to see them try and capitalise on ramadan by changing that religious festival's name in a similar way.

With all their cutbacks on printing, Branches, and various other outgoings, they've only saved $11m?????
Sounds like the "truth" to me.
they seem to think that all they will do is enjoy a carefree life with little or no concerns problems or worries whereas nothing could be further from the truth... according to the bible.. without trying to speculate on these concerns or problems during this one thousand year reign of christ jesus ,lets hear what the bible has to say about the end of his thousand year reign.. rev.20:7-10 satan is to be let out of his prison {as if he hasn`t done enough damage in 6000 years of roaming about in the earth at the same time fraternizing with jesus and jehovah in heaven} i digress.. and the reason he is let out of prison ,lo and behold ,is to mislead those nations in the four corners of the earth gog and magog to gather them together for the war.
{ here we go again ,armageddon didn`t solve anything we have to go through another one.
} 1000 years later.. now get this it`s not just some isolated little skirmish with a few hundred or even a few thousand dissenters ,as the bible states they number the sands of the seashore and they advanced over the breadth of the earth and encircled the camp {not a nation but a camp} of the holy ones.and the beloved city.. with that description it would seem the holy ones are in the minority and the opposes apparently were spread over all the earth.. so that description of the bible to me about jc 1000 rule does not appear to be one of living in a paradise , that is not on the agenda until after jesus christ 1000 year reign and only if you are lucky enough to survive another test/war of your loyalty after all you have gone through previously.. i wonder if this realization is one of the reasons why so many now are claiming to be of the anointed because as one of the other sheep you have to pass another test after the 1000 years of christ jesus rule whereas of one of the anointed on death now you go straight to heaven ..
Ah Smiddy, you're running wayyyyyyyyyyyyy ahead of the chariot - "They seem to think that all they will do is enjoy a carefree life with little or no concerns problems or worries."
The vast majority/all of JW's are totally oblivious to their "faithful slave's" twisted teaching of John 5:28,29 which claims that these sins - the vile things - will be practiced after the resurrection, i.e. during the 1000 year reign. So the JW paradise isn't going to be as carefree as they think!
The operative word in the verse being "practiced" - not one-off sins.
my (very fake) name is gabriel syme or gabe for short.
i have been lurking in the shadows for many years and i want to give all here a heartfelt thank you for all your indirect support.
this website, as well as youtube, and eventually reddit, were all key in me finally accepting the “truth” being not that at all.
Welcome Gabe. I'm sure your "faith" in TTTATT will be reinforced now that you have "come out."
