that’s my attitude toward anyone making an assertion.
i’m sick of people saying such and such is true simply because we are saying it.
i would think that those here would agree because we all have been jehovah’s witnesses.
Minimus, I’m sorry you took it that way. That wasn’t my intent.
There’s really no need to be defensive. My comment wasn’t meant to be anything but congratulatory. I was genuinely complimenting you.
Please keep going. Your progress is evident. I’ve been watching it for years now—about a decade in fact. 👍

Congratulations, Minimus
You’re showing signs of progress and personal growth.
Well done!

JWGoneBad: WT puts most of the blame on renegade rank & file members who have not been following protocol
Abusers always blame the abused. Always.

IWantOutNow: It is NOT NOT NOT about the price, and getting a better rate for the "friends"
Of course not.
Cults NEVER do anything for the benefit the followers; it's always for the benefit of the cult leaders. Always.
And make no mistake: It's a cult!

i dunno about you, but if i walked up to this display at an expo i'd be a little creeped out..
What kind of expo was it?
the fires have been hitting many areas of los angeles lately.
recently, i checked my home voicemail and noticed messages from several elders.
they were calling everyone on their “books” to ensure that they were ok.. i assume this is the protocol for a natural disaster.

My personal opinion is that sometimes they make changes simply to give the illusion of progress and that something is happening because clearly nothing really is in relation to “fulfillment of Bible Prophecy.”
How else could they maintain the fiction that “Jehovah’s chariot is on the move” when the scenery never changes?
