hi guys & gals,.
have you really ever thought about the term "unconditional love"?.
it's one of those terms that we as witnesses get to hear banded about quite a bit, but have you ever truly sat (or stood) and thought about what it implies?.
JWs make a lot of noise about having unconditional love. Their acceptance is all conditional. It's contingent upon going along with their delusional beliefs (or at least pretending to) without ever criticizing the organization and its leaders, never questioning doctrines and practices and never pointing out flaws.
If it's conditional, it ain't love!
i recently had a discussion with a witness in which we were talking about the catholic church.
i led them out with talk about the fraud and child abuse scandals and everyone was agreeing and making comments about how terrible it is and how obviously wrong they are.
after about 30 minutes of solid rapport building in this manner, even incorporating scriptures regarding some doctrinal errors in their doctrine (catholic), i said this:.

OTWO, could you please provide the citation for the Watchtower that has this quote:
"A religion that teaches lies cannot be true."
I can only make out that it's December 1st, but can't tell which year.
alert..............alert.....breaking news .......... john cedars of jwsurvey has pranked called governing body member anthony morris iii at bethel .
over 2 minutes of pranking .
as i type he is editing the recording into a video .
Cedars really missed an opportunity here. I mean, he had an actual GB member on the phone! He should at least have asked him if his refrigerator was running or if he had Prince Albert in a can?
Dumb.
All this will do is make life miserable for a few low-level drones at Bethel that let this call through.
i just came across this photo regarding the 'happy at bethel' video.
seems like confirmation of co-ordination by higher ups.
link - happy at bethel email photo.
On another note, why would they care?
The unauthorized use of copyright music (the song) is a real problem.
Other than that, the video makes them look more normal than they really are. So why would the GB object to people thinking workers at Bethel are normal? One can only wonder!

Well what did they expect? Seriously!

you must see the musical video at the end of this month program (aprox.
at 1:04:30).... i don't like to use "must" but this is wow... if you think they couldn't get any lower... just be prepared...
WGO: The cart song was normal to them ... I cannot believe that they are not bothered about it
It's really disturbing that seemingly normal people can think this drivel is good. It's not.
The emperor is not only naked, he's ugly too!
so, i have been badgered recently to do some kind of family study by my wife.
thanks to tv.jw.org i now have a really easy tool to use that not only passes this time but actually makes them question the organisation.. our sessions skipping through the delights of the monthly broadcast have been very interesting.
derision at the wooden delivery of the gb.
Stirred: GB opinions are still just opinions.
They don't think so.
well if you check the new pay attention at the meeting video their hall is one of the 1st.
flat roof, lots of glass and a jw.org logo.
lucky them
Simon: Now they are planning ahead for resale for when they are finished with the buildings.
Which tells me that the leaders of this organization (the real leaders, whoever they are) know that they've got a cash-cow money machine here and that they're just going to milk it for all it's worth.
They're clearly not worried about any fictional "Armageddon" coming anytime soon.
