Who Picks The Governing Body?

by millie210 in

hey everyone,.

just a simple straight forward question on exactly what the process is.

if a gb member died tomorrow, do the remaining ones choose who gets to be next?.

Skedaddle

If one dies, the replacement would most likely be a Governing Body helper. Many "annointed" among these ones...

Oh really? No shaking heads of disgust for them then, no?!

So, they have to be already saying they're anointed then?! Wow, very slim pickings... and only from crazy people who think they'll rule from the heavens. Kinda explains why they have seven dumbasses onboard!

I wonder how many get to a position in New York and suddenly decide they are anointed...

Back with another article are Reveal news and a link to a BBC page that shows Jehovah's Witnesses have over 23,000 paedophiles on their records. Just showing these two articles together should wake a few up you'd have thought. We live in hope... That pious remark at the end of the BBC article arghhh!

@Diogenesister "..its really hard to find a therapist who understands in the UK at least. ( not to derail the thread)Do you really think there's a possibility idiots may get heavy with JWs?? I know vigilante stuff has happened in the past."

The best therapists are the ones who've been through it themselves. Any ex-jdub who's gone into psychology is quids-in! Unfortunately, they're rare as hens teeth. Maybe more will start advertising if dubland explodes!

"Idiots getting heavy?" Yes! It's a possibility. If the amount of child abuse cases gone unreported is in it's thousands which it's sure to be, gets into the main news which it sure will do, expect the worst! Media frenzy!!!! It won't be like anything else we've seen regarding jdubs. Uk is now a very different kettle of fish to what it was twenty years ago. The anger at unrelated goings on of the country are at a peak and every scandal that's outed is being jumped on by vigilantes who don't even know what they're fighting against - or who. It might be a blessing in disguise that there are so many kingdom halls to spread the thugs thin on the ground but if any of our loved ones live alone in a not so idyllic community that knows they're a dub... well, i'll be taking my mum from her home. It depends how accurate the media is in getting over the correct information but if derek o'hare's tube channel is seen as an example on how to deal with it by people who don't know anything about the witnesses... heaven help us! It will frighten my mum to death! Expect the worst at kingdom halls! And i doubt those f@ckers, the GB will turn up this time. They'll send a minion, if that. Stand up for Jehovah? Yeah, right!

WTS buys £1,000,000 luxury sea-front property in Wales, UK

by Simon in

shower room.

office.

games room.

Don't know what the law states about charity status organizations flipping property is... i'm guessing they have to have the property for a certain amount of years before they can sell it to qualify non payment of tax on the profit but when you've got a property portfolio the size of watchtower, you can afford to sit on them for however many years in order to wait. Your investment's only going one way and that's up! Buying prime property wreaks of flipping for profit to me. Every little helps.

lf you had the opportunity to ask the GB a question what would it be?

by atomant in

l thought this would be an interesting exercise to read the different responses.

my question is what makes you think your gods chosen medium?and prove it.

Skedaddle

Are the Watchtower investing in medical companies to find a cure for death?

Are jw rest homes now owned by watchtower and do you take tax payers money from the government to pay for each residents stay?

Do you know you're a bunch of c@nts?

I've got too angry again so better go and cool off again...

Just a simple question.

by Sabin in

jw
friends

do you think it is easier for an elder to wake up to the wtbts because of the position he is in which gives him access to info that the rank & file would not be privy to, or do you think it would be harder for him to wake up because of all the prestige/power/admiration he receives as a result of being an elder, or does it come down to something else entirely?.

Skedaddle

This is off topic but i don't want to open a thread about it. Is anyone on here an ex london bethelite from the last 10 years? I just have a simple question to ask. Cheers.

@ sabin - I know but I got angry lol. Sorry, but if i got the chance i'd elbow you all out of the way anyway! Haha

@ esse - Finally a question that makes perfect sense! Yes, it's just a theory at this stage and i know it's out there but putting lots of pieces together it does make perfect sense. Well, now i've said it. It's out. I haven't found this theory anywhere it's just a scenario that's bugging me, fits the agenda for multiple parties and the various technologies are being tested. I think i'd better shut up now. I hope the brakes will continue to work on my car arghhh lol!

How many of you are awake and how many are just dumb?

Who's really in charge of the business?

Which one of you is a mason?

How do you sleep at night knowing you've killed children and adults through the blood doctrine and caused hundreds of suicides through tearing families apart and caused thousands of children to be raped by not reporting to police the paedophiles?

How much money do you launder through the donations and how much money do you hide by falsifying building costs?

Your long-term strategy sucks in the age of information so what huge changes are you planning?

Just how friendly are you with the zionist jewish leaders and do you have a combined strategy to bring about the descending of jesus to earth using modern technology?

I could go on... but it's making me angry.
