  Elder Arrest Scaremongering

  by jw07 in

  last week there was a meeting with all the elders and ministerial servants about responsibility in the kingdom hall and blah blah blah.. one elder brought up a scenario where all the elders were arrested, and we were asked if the meeting would still go on, and how.. this is the second time within a month that i've heard that scenario posed by an elder in my congregation.. does anyone have any idea of the trash being fed to them in letters recently?.

  is this a scenario that hq is putting out there, or are the fear mongering convention videos driving their imaginations wild?.

  Convention Distances: Jamaica

  by jw07 in

  for the past few years conventions in eastern jamaica have been held at a cricket stadium, in the capital city, known as sabina park.

  this venue is a central location for the bulk of the attendees who make it there from the capital kingston, as well as the adjoining areas of portmore and spanish town.

  yeah, that's where jws are concentrated, as well as their non-jw friends, work mates and family who they coerce into attendance.

  Scientology Documentary on ABC

  by jw07 in

  2. beliefs

  right now two jws in my family are watching a documentary about scientology and laughing at the 'crazy things that people believe'.

  isn't it ironic?

  on the other hand i've never seen them watch something like this before.. i'm making sure to laugh loudly at things that parallel jw beliefs and behaviours in order to bring attention to them.. i hope they are curious enough to watch a similar expose on jws should it air on network tv.. yeah right, wishful thinking..

  TV / Movie Clips That Summarize JW.org Life

  by jw07 in

  this is just meant to be a fun topic.. what are some tv and movie snippets that summarize the conformity and extremism of watchtower life in general?.

  i found this trailer for the giver to be dead on :-).

  it shows what happens when you start to openly question the organization and its policies.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etspwr5deek&feature=youtu.be.

  New Field Service Format?

  by jw07 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it seems that hype is the only thing keeping jw.org alive and well these days (that and the money of suckers who continue to fall for it).. at meeting on monday, an elder announced "the faithful slave has seen it fit to change the format of our ministry in 2016, and more information will come".

  i guess the desired reaction is to get jws preoccupied with what those changes could possibly be, and if it means that the end is nearer or some crap.. with that said, i've been suckered into wanting to know what these 'changes' will be.

  does anyone know?

  Elder On Tablet During Prayer

  by jw07 in

  2. beliefs

  during a prayer in the kh all our eyes are supposed to be closed, right?

  i've never been one to fully my eyes during prayers.

  i'll close them down, but just enough that i can still peep around at what's happening without being noticed.. there's something i've noticed a certain elder doing for the second time now.

  Disfellowshipping Spree In My Congregation

  by jw07 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i just was looking back at a group photo on social media from exactly one year ago.. there are 12 persons in it, and since last year 3 of those persons in that photo have been disfellowshipped, plus one more not in the photo.

  so that's a total of 4 persons from my congregation of a little over 100 publishers.. unfortunately 3 are back at the meetings and taking the shunning, but one seems to be fully awake and has disappeared completely.. that's the most persons i recall being disfellowshipped in my congregation in such a short while.

  usually it's like 1 every 2 or 3 years.. i wouldn't mind seeing more people leaving.. there are currently 3 persons who i wonder about.

  1. will jw.org implement all / some of the recommended changes?.

  2. will jw.org proudly refuse citing that they will "obey god as ruler rather than men"?.

  3. will news about the rc goes viral, and how will the world at large respond?.
