And your Bible Study conductor will be concerned if you miss one meeting. Doesn’t sound like a big deal, but for the indoctrination process to work, you must not have any breaks or downtime to think things through.

I’m surprised this couple studying with you never warned you not to read any website about JWs other than jw.org. They know once a person does that, they quit studying. If you tell them you’ve done any of this research, they’ll tell you Satan is like a roaring lion and he’s sunk his teeth into you already.

Brain Teaser
by BourneIdentity ini’ve always wondered about this one.
if the bible says there will be a resurrection of the righteous and the unrighteous, does that mean all mankind that have died will come back to life?
if so, what’s the incentive for jws to have an urgency to preach and save people?

If so, what’s the incentive for JWs to have an urgency to preach and save people? They’re going to die and be resurrected whether they follow the WT or not.
What if they learn “the truth” and then fall away, does that mean they don’t get resurrected? And if not, wouldn’t it have been better if they never became a JW? If that’s the case, then all JWs converting people are actually decreasing their studies chances of living forever.

It’s pure speculation on my part, I don’t believe I worded it in a way to make it sound like it was fact or truth. However, if the WT can pass along all their teachings as truth, then change many of them and still say it is truth and they weren’t lying or wrong prior to that, can’t I do the same?
I usually have a 6th sense towards these things. I would bet I’m about 80% correct on all my assumptions.
You know how the Slave tells us all never to drink alcohol at dinner time on a meeting night? They don’t want us under any type of influence when we attend the meeting later that evening, because it would be disrespectful to Jehovah. I could see them ignoring their own counsel and sipping those scotches at any hour of the day. The rules don’t apply to them.
If I’m not dead on right about my assumptions, the other alternative is this was all for Tony. But I have a strong feeling all 8 of those brothers really enjoy this drink, so I’m sticking with my initial idea.

I would bet dollars to donuts that this expensive scotch is the preferred drink of the entire Governing Body. They are all sipping on this stuff during all their scriptural discussions of what New Light to introduce to the flock. This type of alcohol run is most likely done every 2 weeks. 8 men that are self medicating can go through a dozen bottles of this in no time. It was Tony’s turn to get it and he got caught with his pants down. The next Governing Body member that has to make the run, you can rest assured he will have a change of plans. They probably are paranoid and feel all the apostates have staked out every liquor store in a 30 mile radius from the Warwick compound.

The everyday fears of a JW
by days of future passed inremember how much your life revolved around fears?
fears of how going to a new place, might put you in harms way?
how bad the world was and how even talking to people, might find you robbed etc?.

This is why the religion has such a problem with depression, anxiety and suicide. Constant fear and extreme low self esteem of not being able to measure up to expectations. Husbands stay busy providing for their family, have a home and cars to maintain, kids to care for and then everyone in the congregation, including their spouse rides them because they aren’t reaching out and doing enough. It ends many marriages.
While they tell you to think the worst of worldly people, they tell you to think the best of the brothers and sisters. That is all lip service, because when anyone sees someone doing something, like Tony buying all that scotch, were trained to think the worst. We have to assume he’s an alcoholic and we need to keep the congregation clean, so off to the elders we rat him out.
It’s such a toxic environment. So many people are cured of their mental issues shortly after they leave.

Too damn funny! Parents pleading for their kids to return to Jehovah because the 8 Pharisees will now permit you to receive a blowjob, how priceless!

I know others have woke up due to huge things like the ARC, UN, blood issue, shunning, but mine was due to how Pharisaical the leaders are, how much absolute control they exercise over the members.
Any practicing JW needs to give it some serious thought. These psychotic, power hungry men want to set rules for what you and your wife can do sexually behind closed doors. It’s not enough that you remained a virgin and did everything by the book staying morally clean before marriage. It doesn’t matter if he is an elder and the wife is a pioneer. You both can get disfellowshipped for doing certain acts in the privacy of your own bedroom. I’m not talking snorting cocaine or getting drunk, I’m talking typical foreplay things leading up to sex that any couple would do.
When we had the Annual Meeting several years ago when Tony went off telling sisters they shouldn’t wear spandex when jogging in the neighborhood and no brother should wear Tailor fitting dress pants, that was the last straw, I was fed up with their domination and control. They are truly offspring of vipers!

Thanks for clarifying. I mean no harm or ill will, it’s just great to discuss things with differing opinions and not get taken into a back room for it. :-)

You know what blows my mind in all of this? All of the apostates, PIMOs, inactive ones, disfellowshipped, disassociated or even ones that have never been a JW on this discussion, are referencing scriptures and articles from the Watchtowers showing how what Tony did wasn't right. Then the WT apologists, at least that's what they appear to be, are leaning more towards their own human reasonings to defend him, rather than sticking to God's Word and the Watchtower. Oh the irony!! Be warned, when you have to close the Bible and the WTs and use your own reasoning, you have abandoned your faith! If you have abandoned your faith, then why defend Big Tony? Are you close buddies with him?
