If mankind needed to be redeemed from sin and death, why didn't the redemption happen as soon as Jesus successfully lived his entire life without sin and sacrificed his life? If he was successful, the price was paid and we'd all be living forever. It's all bullshit, or Jesus fucked up and sinned, so it nullified his sacrifice. No way would that mother fucker wait 2000 years and still not do anything to end all the suffering. Any decent mother fucker would have done it immediately. Fuck all that bullshit.

US Letter Read Sunday 4/26 at Meeting - No KH Use and No Field Service Indefinitely
by JWTom inthere was a letter read sunday at our meeting that mentioned some parts of us are starting to open back up.
however, regardless of things opening up that no kingdom halls should be used for any meetings of any kind.
also, no door-to-door ministry or any form of in-person ministry is allowed.

Elders given immunity for sins in the past???
by Kingdavid41 inappointment and deletion of elders and ministerial servants.
situations that require a review of an appointed brother's qualifications.
25. committed a disfellowshipping offense years in the past and the matter was never addressed: the body of elders may de- termine he can continue to serve if the following is true: the im- morality or other serious wrongdoing occurred more than a few years ago, and he is genuinely repentant, recognizing that he should have come forward immediately when he sinned.

To add to HappyDad comment, I believe it’s a big reason they’re merging KHs. Not only to make them look fuller because attendance is down, but also due to brothers not wanting to serve. They are also creating more and more videos to deal with this lack of brothers that can give parts.

Besides Everlasting Life What Do Jehovah’s Witnesses Offer To Anyone?
by minimus ini have been thinking... why would anyone want to join the religion or actually stay in the organization.
i understand that people don’t want to lose their loving family and dear friends so some stay in.
but what does anyone really ever get because they are jehovah’s witnesses??.

They only offer the promise of everlasting life, that is a long way short of actually getting it.
I would rephrase this as:
They only offer the hope of everlasting life, that is a long way short of actually getting it.

If I was still PIMI, I'd be terrified
by neat blue dog injust looking at the pictures in tomorrow's wt study makes me think of the nightmares i used to have as a child.
and nowadays the pictures are sometimes more realistic, so for any who are truly mentally in, this has a terrible effect on them and even their life choices.
looking in as a pimo or pomo it seems almost comical that adults would believe in this sci-fi bible fan-fiction, but it's not funny when we remember that all ages of the r&f are being manipulated by the gb by these cheap and evil means.. .

The Great Tribulation must be at least 3 years away
by BourneIdentity insince they’ve announced the dates for the next 3 memorials, no talk about this “may be our last one!”.
since they’ve announced the patterson construction project will take 3 years to complete.
let’s also not forget when they designed warwick, they spent money on expensive energy saving technology to save millions in the long run, years and decades in the future.

Why build Warwick and now take on a large project such as Patterson if the GT could happen at any moment and the authorities repossess WTs property like they have in Russia?
Our KH announced there will be a local needs part next week in regard to the Patterson Project. I’m sure it will be “loving reminders” to travel there and give of your time for free or if your unable to, give as much $$$ as you can.

JW Broadcast For August
by APieceOfShitNamedTate inokay i'll admit that what i'm about to ask is a little silly.
this is the kind of stuff that crosses over into tinfoil hat territory, but you can't help but notice it.. did anyone else see gary breaux in this month's broadcast doing that weird "hand diamond" thing over his bible?
he was also wearing a pinky ring.

I only watched a few minutes, but never noticed him doing the diamond with 2 hands. The things I did notice are 1) he always had his right hand on the Bible. It seemed really odd. 2) he spoke much too slowly, felt like it was in slow motion or he was trying to make it clear to a deaf person so they could read his lips.
I’ve noticed most of the speakers on JW Broadcasting speak much too slowly, it drives me fucking crazy and I have to turn it off after 2 minutes.

JW .org now want children's monthly allowance and create own 'donation box" ! 🗳💵
by Nathan R. Koppe inthis video represents the latest specimen in a relentless stream of propaganda material targeting children,.
the “become jehovah’s friend” series first launched in 2012 with a video aimed at guilt-tripping kids into believing that plastic wizard toys are satanic.. then, another cartoon has shown caleb and sophia essentially being threatened with death if they don’t pay attention at meetings.. in lesson 19, sophia was reminded of the importance of being generous by donating her 'ice cream money'!
to the jw .org 'worldwide work'.. (https://www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/children/become-jehovahs-friend/videos/be-generous).

When you say the Watchtower will be obsolete, you just mean it won’t be in printed form any longer? I can’t imagine Sunday meetings not having a Watchtower study. It would make sense if it still was written, but only in online format.
