  ...to drop by and say, 'ayup, mates', to you all, my old friends.. i am so totally over the jobo thing i have surprised myself.. if anyone asks, 'what do you think of the jobos?

  ' my reply would be, 'i don't think of them.'.

  all my rage, anger and sadness have dissipated over time.

  I do agree with her as to why they have to put up a guard so to speak around such protesters which seems to be the normal procedure for JW`s .

  It only emphasises the cult nature of the JW`s

  They would do better just to ignore them .

  But then again the more they advertise themselves as a cult religion all the better.

  One of the points of conventions: obedience training

  by john.prestor in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i think a lot these days about people who train you to be obedient without telling you that's what they're doing.

  the thought occurred to me that that could be part of the idea of regional conventions.

  it's not like they present much of anything new to the audience, it's the same old talks year after year, the same old information, yeah, repackaged a little, different themes, different illustrations, but the same information, obey the faithful slave, armageddon is imminent, go door-to-door, the usual.

  Lets face it the GB do not rely on Holy Spirit

  ,They rely on Psychology Of The Human Mind , also on Successful Salesmen Pitch and How to Manipulate Your Audience .

  Caboolture Kingdom Hall sold in 2009 for $1,650,00 Australian dollars. Now owned by Salvation Army.

  If you or I had any dealings in any way that would be a benefit to one of Babylon The Greats Churches ,you or I would face a JC and be dealt with accordingly .

  Apparently the same rules do not apply to the WT Organization when money is involved.

  i have been in crisis regarding the international problem of the way child abuse has been handled in the wt organization.

  i have been dealing with serious health issues that made it necessary for me to go on permanent disability since 2015. since then my health has gotten worse making it nearly impossible to attend meetings.

  in this period i have received no spiritual or other help of any kind.

  With any questions you might have apart from this site I would recommend jwfacts .

  You could also use the search option at the top of this screen

  Getting an education about the WTB&TS / Jehovah`s Witness religion from people who have gone through similar things as yourself has done wonders for them .

  I wish you well in the journey you have started

  Take care.

  Does It Bother You That Christian Churches and Christian People Are Being Persecuted and Killed?

  The media have a big role to play in this.

  They seem to highlight offenders that persecute Muslims and identify them and their causes with no problem that are more often than not fellow Muslims of a different sect. Never a Christian religion.

  However when extremist Muslim Religions attack and bomb Christian Churches they are rarely if ever identified as Muslims and the churches they attack are not identified as christian churches but only as religious people engaged in prayers. Or some other such ambiguity .

  Maybe the doctrines and messages that the GB of Jehovah`s Witnesses publish on line & in print invite such a reaction from certain countries .

  Just think of what JW`s say and print worldwide about Russia is it any wonder they are not happy with it ?

  Of course Russia would class them as an extremist organization not knowing what they may be capable of .

  The GB bring this persecution upon their members themselves just as they did in Malawi while excusing the same conduct in Mexico .

  I think ANZAC day today was attended by a record number of people all over the country. And I think that so many young people who were involved either as participants in the services or just observers in the crowds is a great testimony to the respect and gratitude they have for those who served in those wars and conflicts so that we may have and enjoy the lucky land that we live in .

  Thanks for starting this post zeb on this day.

  All Australians and new Zealanders should be proud of this day.

  An uncle of mine was a P.O.W. of the Japanese in WW2
