  i’m an elder who is pima, i’m amazed how much info is available to all elders.

  you can see all private details of every member of the congregation.

  i wonder how these sisters feel about their private details being available to these creepy elders?.

  The leaked video's are hard to find. It came from the IT or service department.

  Every witness has an unique number and record.

  They can make 3D query's about the ups and downs of a publisher.

  It came around +/- 2016.

  There is a leaked jw.org video about Watchtower Information Service, a data collection with unique number for every publisher.

  The application contains all information about every individual witness.

  Where is Tony?

  by Athanasius in

  on february 22, 2023, anthony morris iii was officially removed from the governing body of jehovah's witnesses.

  a few months later it was revealed that the watchtower bought him a house in lumberton, north carolina.. however, and correct me if i am wrong, since leaving the gb nobody has reported seeing tony attending jw meetings or participating in field service.

  in fact nobody has reported seeing him anywhere, not even at a local liquor store.

  It's still a mysterie why jw.org made the leave public by BREAKING NEWS, Anthony Morris no longer part of the GB, and one day later the news was removed from the website. It still smells.

  Half hearted JWs compared to past generations

  by JohnR1975 in

  2. beliefs

  is it just me or has there been a massive change in jws of late?.

  when i grew up in the cult they had a real sense of urgency and would do an hour minimum, these days it’s not even ten mins before coffee break.. same goes for everything else, it’s half hearted .

  My brother in law is the local cart coordinator.

  I asked him, how succesfull the cart work is, because nobody is interested and walk by.

  He told me with big eyeballs and an irritated voice: "It's a great succes, because Jehovah sees what we do".

  Last months I don't see the carts anymore here.

  Do you recognize this?

  by Gorb in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  thinking sometimes about my youth days and the stories my grandfather told me about our jw congregation.

  do you recognize that your congregation was full of somehowe strange folks, very low educated, poor and simple?.

  the po was an elder with some distance, with some personality acting intelligent and following the rules strict.. there was always a kind of scandal.

  Many of us made the same rollercoaster ride in the 90's and 2000's.

  I can write a book about these years.

  Rumour 144,000 literal number teaching to be abandoned at Annual Meeting

  by slimboyfat in

  say it ain’t so!

  .

  in one sense it’s a no brainer because the figures just don’t add up any more.. in another (negative) sense it’s a no brainer because it’s been fundamental to jws since year dot and might undermine the whole thing?

  It was a hard core doctrine. Why change it? It creates only problems. It is not an issue to be solved.

  My forecast:

  They stir the King of the North situation up.

  Russia will attack the holy place, Armageddon is imminent.

  Stay alert, keep on the watch, prepare for the great tribulation.

  And the new watchtower studio will open in 2028, if it has Jehovahs blessing! Isn't that great? Aplause!

  The society will plan a dramatic video serie "How to protect your children". What a provision from the Governing Body, isn't it? Big applause.

  The international conventions for 2032 are planned. Make plans to attend them. Locations are Hawai, Sydney and Vancouver. The contracted hotels will be a wonderful provision.

  There will be a part by a Governing body member "Brothers, stand firn in your congregation". It will be about stay in your congregation and in your country and not leave it because of war, or because of the political situation. Be prepared to take your part of persecution.

  A Jehovah's Witness family's excellent Letter of Resignation trending on exjw Reddit today

  i got an email notice today on this excellent letter of resignation from a german family that is trending on reddit.

  i thought i would share it here if anyone is so inclined to write one.

  for those with pimi jw family and jw business connections, it may not be wise to share such a letter, but i imagine it must be very freeing to send such a letter.

  NO SUPPORT FOR EXJWS DRAFTED IN UKRAINE

  by raymond frantz in

  2. bible

  https://youtu.be/ulan2hhagz8?si=jpedzunzb5o_6axd.

  here’s a cautionary tale for anyone counting on past ties with jehovah’s witnesses to dodge conscription: they’ll throw you under the bus faster than you can say “conscientious objector.” a man in ukraine learned this the hard way after refusing military service and hoping his old religious connections would save him.

  spoiler alert—they didn’t.

  Ukraine started war in 2014, that's the true story.

  An internal Sovjet conflict.

  Not my war.
