KoolJo,this is interesting. There is a definite trend in the borg for more money.
Out of curiousity, where is this?
If you don't want to be specific, I understand. Maybe you could just say the county/state/province or general geographic region.

Meeting for not paying assembly fees???!!!!
by Kool Jo inhey folks......has anyone else heard of, or experienced this before?.
i visited by parents over the weekend and accompanied them to their assembly....same rubbish spoken about since ive been born....obey the gb, donate your last penny, no education and be a pushover.. anyways, our assembly hall has lush vegetation and scenery, so i was more focused on that....i started dozing off after lunch, so got up and went walking, saw some older folks from the congregation i grew up with.. upon the conclusion of the assembly, wed normally leave out right after the prayer ends so as to avoid the traffic.
however, for this assembly he told me that hes gonna be a few minutes with the elders and branch representatives...so a few minutes turned into an hour..

Cofty: Do they not have enough faith in Jesus' promise?
Apparently not. They don't have much faith in their lawyers either.

Cofty: How much would you love to see a member of the GB on the stand being grilled by a tenacious lawyer?
I'd pay to see that!
I'd love to see him grilled just like the roasted hot-dog illustration Tony Morris the Turd used in one of his talks. That'd be a bit o' the ol' Divine Justice. It might even get me believin' in God again!

Oh, the irony.
by disposable hero of hypocrisy intoday i was sat in a car full of jaydubs on the way home from the circuit assembly, and the discussion turned to halloween and how to avoid trick or treaters!.
seriously, there was talk of pulling curtains shut across front doors and how disgusting it was that parents let their children knock on doors , and how annoying it is to get a knock on the door knowing it's an uninvited person!
had to bite my tongue... .

One evening of the year they get a taste of their own medicine and they can't handle it. Wimpy little hypocrites.
It's really pretty effin' funny!

GB No Show = Cowardice
All the heroes of the Bible showed up for their court trials, even when the verdict was a foregone conclusion.
Jesus didn't run away and hide from the Sanhedrin. Why did Lösch? Because he's a coward. They're all cowards, every last one of them. - Revelation 21:8

Rocky Copley, Esq. (To the Court): "These are just men who get together and discuss spirìtual concepts. That is it. It's like the Dalai Lama. The Dalai Lama, for their religion.
Wow, did he REALLY say that?!? WTF!!!
So in the Conti case they WT lawyers said the organization is just like the Catholic Church, now they're saying the leaders are just like the head of Tibetan Buddhism!
So much for not being anything like false religion.
If we can just get them to compare the WT leaders to a rabbi and an imam we'll have a homerun of false religion!

AnnOMaly: How can Copley brazenly lie like that, in court, and still believe he has the God of Truth's approval?
The answer to the first part of the question is easy: This is what JW/WTBTS leadership do. They lie. They have a long history of doing this.
The answer to the second part of the question is speculative. My answer is, I don't know. They're either delusional or they don't believe any of it, it's all a scam and their charlatans and they know it.

From paragraph 14:
Thousands have repented of their unchristian actions and have been welcomed back into the congregation.
How many of us here went through the humiliating process of getting reinstated just to be "welcomed back" and found they were never treated the same?
I am one!

More from paragraph 13:
- Thus, during the modern-day history of Jehovah’s Witnesses, relatively few have had to be expelled from the Christian fellowship because they would not conform to God’s standards.
What a complete, bald-faced lie!!!
- "In recent years disfellowshippings worldwide have been approximately 1 percent of publishers." Watchtower 1992 Jul 1 p.19
I know this reference is a little stale, but even if it was only true then (we all know it is still is true), that's about 70,000 people a year!
This means that about 1.5 million people or more have been disfellowshipped from 1992 until now! (Never mind all the millions before 1992).
That sure as hell is NOT "relatively few."
What liars the WTBTS writers are.
Seriously.
