I think even Charles Taze Russell would turn over in his grave if he heard those songs sung at meetings.
In fact i think he would be turning over so fast he would be doing cartwheels in his grave .
then new and improved purple song books that came out in 1966. then there was the brown song book and a even newer one in 2006. .
thousands of hours wasted singing those stupid songs and their stupid lyrics.. song 106 "watch how we walk and watch we talk.
i remember inserting different works in the lyrics to relive the boredom.

thanks to atlantis, this statement is mentioned on chapter 1 paragraph 1 in the middle.
but i like how the statement says members but the sentence right before has the governing body dudes in a collective whole like voltron here is the paragraph in whole.
1. governing body: the governing body of jehovah's witnesses is made up of brothers who are anointed servants of jehovah god.
I agree with what you state john.prestor 100% they, the governing body are religious charlatans
The Governing Body is organized to take the lead as Jehovah directs it by holy spirit.
Then how is it they can never get anything right ?
It either means Jehovah/Holy Spirit is a complete imbecile
or
The Governing Body are outright liars and fraudsters .
they have a very big child abuse enabler international reputation in the courts can these things be a reason for banning these stupid ass carts that claims to have all the answers to mans hardest questions.. why should every library have to permit them to plant their lame ass carts close to the entrance.. i'm thinking that soon due to all the bad publicity surrounding the jehovah witness cult leaders that cart witnessing will come to be seen as a very big waste of time by all it's members that have become hall less thus missing a shit load of meeting and a beginning to start thinking for themselves.. i'm sure many jws hate this type of work even now, even though it's an easy way to get your time in and not be labeled inactive or keep the elders off your back.
have you noticed that a lot of carts don't have a jw near by?
i never see anybody at the carts where i live, i've even asked people nearby and nobody knew who put the cart there.
While the QR codes sound like a great idea ,seriously how many people do you really think stop & take any literature ? I don`t think anybody does nowadays .
Except maybe ex JW`s who throw it away or PIMI JW who wants some freebies .
I just wish their was a cart in my area so I could dump their stuff on a regular basis. I never see one around here .
well my son (he's pimi) came to me the other day and asked if i could make a bookcase with hidden spaces built into it.
i asked him what for?
he said that they were encouraged to start thinking of and preparing for persecution and hide literature.

??? What the frigging hell for ? What`s the literature going to do for them ?
How about some literature moments from the past off the top of my head.
Don`t get your child vaccinated
Don`t have children in this system of things as they won`t even get to high school before the big A
" Life everlasting In freedom Of The Son Of God" Six thousand years of human existence in 1975 and it would be appropriate for Christ Jesus to begin his 1000 year reign.
This wicked system of things will end before the end of the 20th Century
Faithful men of old will be resurrected in 1925 such as Abraham Issac and Jacob to be princes in all of the world after the big A
The front page WT edition showing elderly people as the generation that would not pass away before the big A { sad to say they have all passed away }
The generation that witnessed 1914 would not pass away before the end of the system took place ,the Bible gives a generation as no more than 50 years Matt.1 17 ,Luke 3:23-38, Matt.24:34
Example :Abraham 2018 BC ---Jesus 2 BC = 2016 years , 42 generations = 48 years for 1 generation .
That`s 3 witness rules from the Bible ,god`s word according to believers yet the GB/WT comes up with a ludicrous unscriptural overlapping generations excuse to cover up their failed prophecy .
And the gulible have lapped it up.
And their is heaps much more than what my failing memory can recall
Looking at all of these past failures in literature provided by the obviously unfaithful and not so discreet slave class ,how can you trust anything they say ?
So why hide literature that is new light today and old light tomorrow ?What benefit is that to you ?
do we all remember that expression when we were jws?.
someone new would "come into the truth", and be so enthusiastic and keen, that we would all joke about "locking them up for the first 6 months because they would preach to everyone".
jws thought that the passion for "learning the truth" was the issue.
What you say is true stuckinarut2 the emotions can sometimes get the better of us.
asia for the asians, africa for the africans, white countries for everybody!.
everybody says there is this race problem.
everybody says this race problem will be solved when the third world pours into every white country and only into white countries.. the netherlands and belgium are just as crowded as japan or taiwan, but nobody says japan or taiwan will solve this race problem by bringing in millions of third worlders and quote assimilating unquote with them.. everybody says the final solution to this race problem is for every white country and only white countries to “assimilate,” i.e., intermarry, with all those non-whites.. what if i said there was this race problem and this race problem would be solved only if hundreds of millions of non-blacks were brought into every black country and only into black countries?.
I`m a bit lost ,I know I`m a bit thick at times, what do anti whites hate that we love ? After watching that u-tube .
well my son (he's pimi) came to me the other day and asked if i could make a bookcase with hidden spaces built into it.
i asked him what for?

I wonder what will be the first choice of publications to stash, the bible? I think not.
Good point blondie, shouldn`t the only piece of literature they need, be the Bible ? Jehovah`s word is supposed to be infallible ,whereas the GB members have admitted they are not infallible they make mistakes and they are not inspired .
So why the need to stash and hide their literature above the Bible ?
Its statements like this OP that convinces me that the GB/WT know full well their is no GOD and they are religious charlatans exploiting the gullible for their own advantage.
i have been introduced to this site by my new friends that are helping me navigate through the reality of waking up and finding out that i have been lied to my whole life.
i grew up in the truth and have given over thirty years to this organization and the few years i wasn’t there my mind was certainly trapped.
the more i think about it i am really not that surprised there was a lot along the way that should have woken me up but it took till recently.
Welcome leopold .... it took me 33 years before I woke up and their are some on this board who took longer to wake up .So don`t beat yourself up about that .
At least WE did wake up to the bullshit.
Take care buddy .
lego animation about the prodigal son with a twist... includes part of a recorded elders reinstatement meeting.
jw wolves at their best.

Glad to have you on this site .
Take care

let's go out to dinner to celebrate the spring festival.
i should explain that my friend had just arrived that morning from china, had slept for a few hours and then called me.
That was fascinating to watch,thanks for sharing FTS
