  The toxic JW Worldview

  by TD in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  sometimes i forget how small-minded, petty, provincial, mean-spirited ignorant and judgemental it was and still is.... then i sit down with a jw relative, hoping to have a normal conversation and realize there is literally nothing to talk about.. nothing..... current events?

  hobbies?

  your job?

  Since I have been away from such toxic people as JW's. I see more joy and happenings in my life. I say let them soak in their misery. Is Jeehober really going to make it better!?! Waiting for something that will never come.

  I worked for an elder who was a tight ass cheapskate but the fellow elder son he had always got a raise and bonus. No matter how hard I worked I got shifted on. Even discouraged from taking classes. Made a killing at retirement from serving Jeehober.

  I Pioneered after High School for a short period but came to the conclusion that this was a dead end and the all mighty Jeehober was a bunch of bullshit.

  New Disfellowshipping Procedure

  by Anna Marina in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  disfellowship but never, ever announce it.. this new procedure is to be confirmed - anyone else come across it?.

  for this record these are jesus' actual instructions in relation to this matter:-.

  (matthew 18:15-17) 15 “moreover, if your brother commits a sin, go lay bare his fault between you and him alone.

  i've never thought about it before, but isn't it some sort of blasphemy and extremism to use a god's name in the official name of your religion?.

  Seem like the the god of the old testament and new testament has some sort of personality disorder!?! In the first part of the bible wants to destroy everything and in second part loves everyone. Which one is it?

  How about the supper righteous where everytime they speak, every other word is Jehovber. If someone keeps saying my name I would think they are some sort of retard.

  Watching Watchtower decrease instead of grow is pretty entertaining. Yep Jeehober is really directing his organization. I hope they continue to sell off halls and become on online cult. Will show that they have no power at all and their true reason in this world $$$.

  Zoom meetings, how long ?

  by Phizzy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was wondering two things, 1: how long in total are the zoom meetings, i presume the sunday one is the longest ?.

  and 2: if you use zoom for free, the session only lasts 40 minutes, so do they have an intermission so people can log back in, or are all jw's expected to pay for the "privilege" ?.

  I would make those zoom meetings fun. I would dress the way I would want to and have interesting backgrounds on my screen. I call that entertainment.
