by HiddenPimo in

just wondering if anyone has ever posted their personal information and have proof that the borg is watching and sent the gestapo to get them?.

i will be announcing my resignation and da myself - and i am objectively looking at either doing it bud dwyer (not really like him but by extension) style at a meeting or an email blast or just giving a letter to the boe?.

any advice is appreciated.

Palm Coast Facility Shut down

by loneranger in

jw
friends

i understand the teaching facility in palm coast florida usa has been shut down now for about three months or so already.

this is the facility the wts purchased from embrey riddle univ.

a few years ago.

HiddenPimo

I wonder why this hasn't been posted on the JW.BORG latest news section? It is always sunshine and rainbows and nothing bad ever. Their news service is worse than state run TV in North Korea.

Buzz Words Used In Watchtower Publications

The next time that you read a book or magazine published by the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, see how many of these buzz words and phrases you come across.

This Clearly Shows . . .
Obviously . . .
The Bible plainly says . . . (Even if the Bible plainly says something, the Watchtower is expert in twisting that scripture to mean something else.)
Logically . . . (I love this one. It means that "we are guessing here". We're probably wrong, but for now we'll take a chance.")
Has clearly shown . . .
Justifiably . . .
We have clearly seen . . .
Surly this is reasonable . . .
The evidence shows . . .
We might reasonable assume. . . (This is another good one. Reasonable to whom?)
The evidence should be clear . . .
Most/Many Scholars . . . (What scholars? Name them. Who are these scholars. I am beginning to think that it is a family named "Scholars.")
Reasonably, then . . .
Surely then . . .
Thus the facts make clear . . . (The Watchtower made up the facts.)
Truly . . .
What must one do . . .
Apparently...
Most certainly...
Of course...
Isn't it reasonable to conclude... (We don't really know, we're guessing.)
Possibly...
Fine examples...
Probably...
Thus, we can see
A mature christian...... (Who doesn't want to be a mature christian. After this phrase we are all apt to agree with what is being said.)

How many would leave the organization right now if the shunning rule was removed?

by HiddenPimo in

dream scenario: everyone is made aware of all the wrongs, the false prophecies / csa problem / double standards - .

and they would not shun, how many would jump ship?.

my parents are fully aware of the sins of the org.

HiddenPimo

10% -20% - 30% More?

Dream scenario: Everyone is made aware of all the wrongs, the false prophecies / CSA problem / Double Standards -

and they would not shun, how many would jump ship?

My parents are fully aware of the sins of the Org. yet they insist on it being a choice of lesser of the the evils and echoing the sentiments of Peter who said ' Lord who else shall we go to'

So maybe not many..

What say you....?

What woke you up?

by HappyBlessedFree in

i’m fairly new so i don’t know everyone’s backstory.

HiddenPimo

For me it was many things -

12. Being appointed as Pioneer while having premarital sex / getting appointed as an MS while having looked at porn, getting appointed as an Elder while not stopping looking at porn. Getting removed and reappointed for looking at porn (see point 3. I should have not admitted it until some time had passed :-))

13. Higher education frowned upon and yet all the heavy's at the conventions including Chairman/Overseer of various departments all of the speakers ere college degree persons

14. Beards not being allowed in the USA and yet see them on many brothers in USA as rule depends on opinion of the CO and BOE

15. Asking for Money to get many hall built in 2015 and then turning around and consolidating halls (The great sell off)

16. Lying at annual meetings about why the reduction in Bethelites and Literature - (The Leaked 2016 Budget Meeting says it all

17. The convention accounting scam (I worked in accounting at circuit and regional) to see the videos on the web about it confirmed that the apostates were not lying but telling the truth

18. Reading the Book Crisis of Conscience

19. Giving awesome talks and doing phenomenal jobs on meeting parts and being told by the CO you are the most organized Secretary ever! (Meanwhile I'm masturbating to porn in my free time) This showed me there is no such thing as Holy Spirit hence my question of God being who I was taught he is versus who he may or may not be

20. Seeing all the real skulls and fossils at the Museum of History in Washington DC

21. Seeing how 'worldly' people are not that bad. And yes there are terrible people but for every bad thing in the news that a person does, I can name several JW's who have done those things as well. There are good people in every corner of the earth and there are terrible people in every corner of the earth.

22. Seeing my worldly relatives happy and enjoying their families and being good people

23. AtM III / AKA TPT - and his shopping spree at the local Liquor store (Nothing wrong with buying the Scotch - it's the principle of hypocrisy that was violated

24. No transparency on the CSA and no apology for the wrongs committed

25. Not releasing the dirt on the database of CS offenders the Headquarters keeps

26. The ARC videos

27. The Canadian courts testimony on Disfellowshipping - the JW lawyer testifying that normal family relations continue. OMG what a load of bull$hit

28. The 3 times I studied the Revelation book and tore my hair out trying to grasp the prophecies only to see the book get kicked to the curb as old light -

29. The blood fractions policy is total BS - I would rather them say no blood whatsoever / a compromise is as as good as blood and they can't man up and fix the unscriptural rule

30. Overlapping Generations and the Millions Now living will never die Magazine

31. Order to throw away all old literature to cover the tracts of old light

32. Sleeping Better than I ever have when doing less theocratically and not being under the mental stranglehold the JW cult has on people

33. See the cognitive dissonance from friends and relatives when i try to mention anything in passing

34. seeing the rampant alcohol abuse by Elders/Pioneer/Servants but because they are on the LDC and other Good Old Boys club areas they get a pass

35. No birthdays but wedding anniversaries and baby showers are ok (What about Job's children birthdays - there was no be-headings there)

36. God killing women and children and animals cause they were either in the way of his peoples land or because Adam and Eve screwed up so your child has to die and Bambi does to!

37. Visiting the bethel facilities in other countries and seeing that Alcohol is ok for lunch and dinner even on meeting nights
