  JW Rumor: End of the Traveling Overseer

  by Edison Trent in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  a friend of mine has contacts to a family with several circuit overseers and special pioneers.

  they have good connections to bethel.. he told me that the latest rumor from bethel states that the cos should be abolished in their present form.

  they have also recently begun to take cos back to bethel.. over the same channel i have already heard of the car fleet program and that the dos should be abolished.. has anyone else already heard of it?

  Waking up to TTATT: Blessing or Curse?

  by Jules Saturn in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  if you take the red pill, you'll have knowledge, you'll be awakened, aware of reality, you'll have freedom.. if you take the blue pill, you stay in your bubble, wearing rose colored glasses, and feel security in an illusion.. taking the red pill isn't something that's easy to do.

  to accept that everything around you is an illusion built up on lies or half truths.

  but hey, it might feel good to be aware and break free from this illusion.

  Counselling

  by jhine in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  does anyone know of an online site for jws who have been sexually abused in the wt ?

  where someone who is in a relationship with someone who has been abused can talk to others who have had the same experience and maybe their family members ( if they are supportive obviously ) .

  a friend of mine is in that situation and would like some insight into how to help their partner .

  Thinking about the end of the Watchtower

  by JeffT in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  first, a word about the watchtower’s financial position: nobody (outside the watchtower organization) knows.

  the wtbs is not required to disclose its finances, and doesn’t.

  we can speculate, but that is all we are doing.

  Ever bump in to a JW acquaintance at the gym?

  by Vetiver in

  1. social
  2. physical

  this has happened to me on 4 occasions.

  3 times it was an elder and i simply pretended i didn't know him and avoided eye contact.

  the other time was someone of my age that didn't really talk to me of the opposite sex.

  How much do you think the internet has hurt JW growth?

  by HereIgo in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  the internet is what helped bring me and so many others out of this evil organization or at least confirmed our doubts.

  i have to say, i have seen quite a few youtube videos recently of ex jw's secretly recording their interactions inside of different congregations, halls, etc and see how empty the halls are!

  so many people comment on how the attendance is so low, far more emptier than when i was in 6 years ago, even on a weekday meeting.

  Prayers ,are they answered ? or is it just self delusion ?

  by smiddy3 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  after 33 years as a jw and leaving 25 years ago i think prayer can be summed up with the jews praying at the wailing wall.. all they are doing is talking to a brick wall ,and getting no feed back.

  and they expect an answer to their prayers ?!.

  christians /other beliefs might find that funny but they are no better off.. prayer is always a one way street you talk either vocally or mentally to god however you never get the same back .. if god " so loved the world that he doesnt want any to be destroyed but have everlasting life " then whats the problem with him audibly answering his servants prayers ?
