  "And what happened next was simply unbelievable!"

  by Terry in

  i always sit in the same spot, just outside starbucks in a vestibule area with a table in the air-conditioned space.

  i say "always," but not today.. somebody with two laptops and a table filled with business ledgers was in "my" favorite spot!.

  so, i took a tiny wooden table inside the coffee shop on a long padded bench next to 3 other identical tables.. as the clickbait banner ads like to say: "and what happened next was simply unbelievable!".

  I've been around the witnesses since the mid 80's and I can think of only 1 or 2 people who have become witnesses through straight up cold calling in the door to door work

  Geoffrey Jackson. Seems he will be compelled to front up.

  pray for brother jackson of the governing body!.

  in todays news from australia it appears that, despite his previous declination to appear when invited, justice mcclellan from the australian royal commission on child sex abuse will officially summon brother geoffrey jackson to the stand after all.. ..... the commission was due to conclude its hearings into the jehovahs witnesses on wednesday but justice mcclellan said he will now call geoffrey jackson, a senior member of the churchs governing body in new york who is currently in australia, to appear next week.. .

  JW.ORG on “uncleanness” that displeases God

  by opusdei1972 in

  i have been recently reading in jw.org the following absurdities on their black and white world: .

  do jehovahs witnesses have rules about dating?......christians who want to marry are commanded to choose only a fellow believer.

  (1 corinthians 7:39) jehovahs witnesses view this command as referring not merely to a person who respects our beliefs but to one who shares and practices those beliefs as a baptized witness.

  Direction the elders rarely follow.

  by notoneoftheboys in

  2. child-abuse

  here is a quote from a w/t article a few years ago.

  in all the 8 kh i attended [work locations changed] not one body of elders followed this direction, so if they are not minding the sheep who is?

  it galls me that they will quickly act if you grow a beard, or voice an opinion, or ask a question, but when your family fall foul of abuse where are the elders then?.

  Yes like the one girl that I can't remember the abbreviation for. Several elders related how much they loved and cared for her. When asked about her suicide attempt, they were all clueless.

  'Parents' magazine cover with JW.org cartoon kids

  by undercover in

  making the rounds on facebook among jws is a photo of a 'parents' magazine cover that shows the cgi jw.org kids on the cover, and an article headline about how wonderful the teaching tools on jw.org are.

  (i don't have the time or the desire to hunt the photo and post it - sorry).

  i immediately suspected some bored and naive jw doing some photoshopping.

  that's an absolutely terrible photoshop job. I could do a better job using MS Paint.

  Won't get fooled again ...Moon Landing.

  by The Rebel in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so i was fooled by the witnesses.

  what can i learn from that?

  not to accept things at face value but to seek out opinion and different view points.. hence my question " do you believe man landed on the moon?.

  How the fuck are there 17 pages on this topic. Here, I'll make it short and sweet: Man landed on the moon. End of story. If you don't believe that you are a fucking idiot and should probably place a bullet in the back of your brain.

  Jehovah Witness Wikapedia written by the same people who write the publications?

  by thedepressedsoul in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i took a look at the jehovah's witnesses wikipedia page for the first time and i couldn't help but notice it was worded very closely to how jw's publications are.

  the good stuff seems to be very positive while the negative items seem to be very downplayed.

  the talk of persecution is enough to get your average jw wet.

  Didn't some people figure out that IP addresses based in NYC were editing JW pages?

  Hey Petragplyph, is there a video of that Herd video? It sounds like there's some weird hiccups in the audio . Almost like cuts or edits. I'd love to have the video of it for authenticity.

  Yeah Stewart is baller as fuck and knows JW rules and 'rules' better than any elder I've come across.
