This one is the most disturbing, showing the full cult mode, reminds me of the Jim Jones cult movie made 25 yrs ago. If they start passing out kook-aid at the KH, its time to go full fade...

How do you deal with depression?

by BlackWolf in

friends

i'm currently going through a bout of depression and my eating disorder has gotten worse.

ever since my parents actually told me that they are going to kick me out when i turn 18 i've felt kind of hopeless about my life.

my parents won't take me to the doctor because the psychiatrists won't have my "best interests" aka jw crap in mind, because really that's the root of all my problems.. i'm wondering if any of you guys have any advice with dealing with depression?

If you really want to meet friends immediately, look into joining the military or Peace Corp.

the organization really has some talented people in it.

Notice how the mormons singing all wear the same uniform and don't move except for their mouths. It is amazing to watch though, how a large group of grown ups can be controlled to this degree...and seem to enjoy it.

The mormons have run circles around anything the witnesses can produce...

Cart "Witnessing"

by Funchback in

besides being a waste of time for those doing it, and being an easy way for the society to inflate its reports of time spent in the ministry, cart witnessing is also taking up space.

i live in a hot city in brazil.

today, the jws decided to set up their cart in the shady spot of the bus stop, where people going to work have to wait for the bus.. ugh!.

It has been reported that publishers from neighboring congregations sometimes engage in public witnessing on the same street, in the same parking lot, and in front of the same businesses or transportation hubs. Publishers from different congregations have left magazines in the same lobby, waiting room, or laundromat and have preached to the same businesses. This has caused businesspeople and neighborhood residents to feel overwhelmed on occasion, even when publishers are not preaching at the same time. Therefore, it is generally best to stay within the congregation’s assigned territory when witnessing publicly.

If publishers wish to witness publicly in a neighboring congregation’s territory, they should talk to their service overseer. He can then contact the service overseer of the other congregation to obtain permission before those in his congregation proceed. Where different-language congregations are assigned to preach in the same area, the service overseers should communicate with each other so as to avoid irritating people in the neighborhood unnecessarily. By means of good cooperation, all things can take place “decently and by arrangement.”—1 Cor. 14:40.

If I was the one putting forth any effort at all, after reading this cut from the top, I would quit completely...
