  JW Mother Dying.... Not a Big Deal.... But it Should Be

  by Zoos in

  i’ve been shunned for many years so her passing doesn’t really constitute a loss for me.

  her and her husband made it clear many years ago they didn’t want a homo in their family.

  request granted.

  Zoos, the cult mentality effectively turns a JW into a possessed individual. They become worker-bees.

  They no longer think or act for themselves, because they have handed over control of every aspect of their lives to a money-making corporation, not to "Jehovah" as they have been conned into believing.

  Our relatives with this mindset willingly terminate our family ties and cease to be our family. In recent years, I have been "stoned to death" by my colluding siblings - not because of any judicial action by the cult, but simply because I was informing them of factual media items about the org which they described as "negative."

  Christian love, eh?

  Boy crowned prom queen by schoolmates

  now i think i may have seen everything.. "boy crowned prom queen by schoolmates".

  i'm all for people being entitled to wear what they want and live as they please as long as they're not harming anyone but - a male prom queen?

  maybe there wasn't much competition in his school?.

  If a man who clearly looks like a man and is dressed like a man then walks into a ladies toilet, can he claim that he is "gender fluid" and felt like a woman that very hour?

  I think we are going to see a lot of unpleasant and complicated scenarios emerging very soon.

We also show that we know him when we love and obey him and give him our exclusive devotion.”

  Exclusive devotion to God? OK, I can do that. Any other requirements for survival which Paul forgot to mention and that I should know about?

  page 13, par. 17 - “That obedience includes........supporting Christ’s anointed brothers (the usual suspects at the top of the pyramid!) as they care for their weighty responsibilities.”

  Yeah, carrying numerous bottles of Macallan Whisky to your Cadillac is a "weighty" responsibility!

  I hope your cats never become "pests" to any of your neighbours. I'd hate to see them get their leg caught in such a brutal trap.

  Just smile and wave boys, smile and wave.

  Couldn't you just trap the pesky critter and then take it for 20-30 minute drive somewhere?

  Let the little swine live somewhere far away from you. Just a suggestion I used several years ago.

  WTBTS/JW's Copyright Hypocrisy?

  by The Fall Guy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i remember one congregation's territory maps used to be copied from an ordnance survey map , which is crown copyrighted and requires a licence fee to do so.

  naughty jw's.. https://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/business-and-government/licensing/licences/paper-map-copying.html.

  afaik, jw congregations don't employ professional map-makers, (cartographers) so how do all the uk congregations obtain such copyrighted items for their business?.

  Maybe someone will throw some "new light" on this, e.g. former elders.

  JWs just called at my daughter's house and said the end is near because .....

  The end is near because Jehovah is speeding up the work.

  w03 7/15 p. 20 par. 21 - “Today, he is speeding up the final spiritual harvest.” (Isaiah 60:22)
  

  This is org reverse-speak for God slowing the work down, as witnessed (TM) by the unprecedented cuts in literature production, unprecedented cuts in actual preaching by JW's, (think trolley-zombies) the unprecedented sell-off of KH's & Branches, and the termination of District Overseers, older Circuit Overseers, Special Pioneers, and countless Bethelites.

  Yup, the great expansion can be seen by looking through the wrong end of the org's binoculars.

  Debate

  by gabcol in

  2. beliefs

  back in the day, russell and rutherford would hold debates with other religious leaders.

  why has jehovah's witnesses stopped doing that?

  i think it would be very interesting to see how they would hold up on a debate now.

  JW's are too afraid to even attempt to defend the org's teachings with anyone who appears to be Bible-savvy.

  If someone has a good knowledge of the Bible and JW dogma, the JW's "apostate alarm bell" will immediately ring, prompting a question which stops the discussion, "Did you used to be a JW?"

  If all else fails, they can use 2 Timothy 2:23 to save themselves from embarrassment - "Further, reject foolish and ignorant debates, knowing that they produce fights."
