Kingdom Songs are about as inspiring as a paper bag (well, some of the new ones actually sound kinda nice), I'm not surprised Jehovah's Witnesses went after the competition.

Accept flip flop beliefs....Jehovah is the one who is driving the Celestial chariot
by RULES & REGULATIONS inthe watchtower bible and tract society uses its governing body to force jehovah's witnesses to accept their flip-flop beliefs and doctrines.
their history of conflicting false teachings and practices have left members in confusion.. in this video, david splane blames jehovah god for all the changing doctrines.
"jehovah is driving the chariot.".

There's a part of me that believes he actually believes that, that he thinks he's following the will of some celestial being, and there's another part of me that thinks he's just passing the buck, Don't blame us guys, we're just doing what God wants. What do other posters think?

Why would Satan give a rats ass about jehovahs witnesses?
by nowwhat? inwe know the answer but for the sake of discussion.
so satan is the ruler of the world and he is hellbent on destroying gods people, why?
satan controls 99.9 % of the world except for one little obscure religious group that no one pays any attention to.

Within their worldview I guess that's just what Satan does, you know? That's who he is, he's just a really evil guy who wants to do evil things. No, it doesn't make sense, anymore than the Baptist, Catholic, Islamic, whatever Satan make sense either.

Flawed Website
by pinkpizza inwhen i first seen this website i actually thought it was a jw website hence the home page and not an ex jw website and i posted a topic thinking people were real witnesses then i quickly discovered it was not and all these people were commenting and embarrassing me and i couldn’t even delete the thread.
then i asked the admin to delete it and i said it was very misleading saying it’s a jw page and he’s like are you serious i deleted your topic and now you are attacking me and it clearly says ex jw page.
he was very rude and btw no where does it say ex jw and you should be able to delete your own threads you start.

I'm with Simon on this one, sometimes we just need to call something what it is. I don't know why they tried to make him look bad, but yeah, that's what they did. If they didn't know who they talked to they would apologize once they saw Simon's post whether in the thread or by emailing him, and I know they haven't done the first, and I'm pretty confident they have't done the second. Dunno who this troll is, but that's what they are: a troll

I don't know if anybody remembers the film The Prodigal Returns, they gave out DVDs at 2014 conventions, but the film features this kid who goes into the city trying to make it big, his brother and father try to talk him out of it, and one day his boss lays him off with two weeks severance, and of course he gets upset, he should be upset. The point being worldly companies will screw you over, don't go for an office job. But then for the Governing Body to turn around three years later and do this to Bethelites, it's just outright, shameful hypocrisy at best or subterfuge at worst, a way of distracting Jehovah's Witnesses from the fact that they're doing the very same thing if not worse, anybody know if Bethelites get any kind of severance?

Who else had to sit though last weeks WT study, 6th Jan 2019 - "Buy Truth and Never Sell It"
by skin inthat title, “buy truth and never sell it”.
is that not our goal has jw’s, to try to sell the truth to those who have the right heart condition to accept it?.

Aaron's story sounds ridiculous right off the bat, it fits too neatly into their usual 'non-Witnesses are cruel' thing. At best they ommitted a hell of a lot of details, people don't spit on others over that, they just don't.

I doubt it highly, that's part of how they rope people in. It's the carrot to their eventual stick, and even the most die-hard Jehovah's Witnesses would feel betrayed if they pulled that rug out from under them, particularly in the global south, where promises of an estate in the mountains must sound pretty damn lovely.
