so it's official, i am happy to report that we merged with another congregation having the same problem.
why is it good news???
because people are either waking up, fading or just not buying into this organization any longer or walking away.... i think many young ones are just not buying into it as much, i see many in the congregation i go to very depressed and some i know personally going thru major depression especially the young "sisters" in their early 20s.... .
Well now, I'm confused, truly confused!! According to a JW broadcast last year (May was it?), why, growth and expansion was outpacing the congregations! New LDC that replaced RBC, was to create something like 1,000 new Kingdom Halls!!! So.....what happened? I mean, WT sure pushed & guilted the masses to fork over even more money, including all the Congregation funds? (except for $5K).
Sounds fishy to me!
hey ya'll!
i have been lurking for years on this site and others but never had the courage to post anything.
actually i was afraid of posting on an apostate site in the event i was wrong.
Let the other assholes on the Body of Elders remove him once, that should REALLY show him how they "love" him!!!!! Hahahahaha!! It will also free up his time to actually be a HUSBAND and FATHER!! He might actually enjoy the free time, that is, if he isn't a power hungry phony two-faced narcissist who gets off on the power trip like so many others do.
Imagine, they are threatening to "delete" him as an Elder, from a VOLUNTARY position that pays ZERO, all because you don't kiss their asses and fall in line! How ludicrous and controlling. F' those clowns.
Good for you on doing the fade, and having your daughter join you! If your husband doesn't like it, too bad! It's a free country, and you have the RIGHT to worship how you see fit. If he doesn't like it, let him file for divorce. Either way, YOU WIN!!! Congrats on your right to freedom of choice, religion, and THOUGHT.
>>the bible reveals that jehovah issaddened when people pursue a wick-ed course and ‘the inclination of theirthoughts is only bad all the time.’ (readgenesis 6:5, 6.
) from this we can per-ceive that sexual fantasizing is wrongbecause it can lead to serious sin that isforbidden in the scriptures and is out ofharmony with jehovah’s way of think-ing.the disciple james wrote: “the wis-dom from above is first of all pure, thenpeaceable, reasonable, ready to obey,full of mercy and good fruits, impar-tial, not hypocritical.” (jas.
3:17) beingaware of this, we should be moved toreject entertainment that fuels impurethoughts and inclinations.
OMG, all the bullshit and guilt I was force-fed as a child about masturbation being "self-abuse", immoral thoughts being from Demons, no sex till marriage, masturbation turning you GAY, etc. Where do I begin?
I remember as a small child a small, thin, green book. I think it was the Family book. It actually talked about masturbation and how it was wrong, turned guys gay, etc. Then, as if THAT shit wasn't bad enough, the WT decided to bring out a book just for kids called, "Young People Ask." That was awkward, cringe-worthy, and embarrassing to say the least.
Now, WT has decided to guilt people some more? Surprise, surprise. Is THIS how they think they are going to stop pedo's from molesting children, by telling them to merely stop thinking about committing heinous crimes? SAD.
if anyone had to guess, what do you think the average age of the community actually is?.
are more millennials actually waking up or is it pretty even amongst previous generations as well?

last night, during our "christian life and ministry" meeting, we had a session on local needs.
elder opened the talk with a disclaimer saying that this was a reminder (cited psalms about how david loved jehovahs reminders).
he reminded us of how bless we are of having our own local assembly hall.
I would have asked that asshole to go pull it from the funds that Mother Org so lovingly wiped out from all the local congregations bank accounts a while back!! Pull it from there, ass-clowns!!!
What a money-grubbing farce this cult has become. Wow, just WOW!
he had a strange look on his face.
in fact, one physic reading put many of the pieces of the puzzle together for me.
“i think about the war all the time, why is that?” she said.
does that sh*t eating grin and that middlefinger have any message for the friends ?.

as a young witness married couple in the 1990's we knew "this generation" of 1914 did not have long to go!
oh how cute a young pioneer couple we were.
we wont have kids till "afew more years pass" and we are in the new system.
I met my wife when I was 21, and she was 37. By 24 and 40, we were married. She had her tubes "re-tied" at 39 so that we could try. My wife went off the Pill a few months before our wedding, and got pregnant on our Honeymoon. Had our son at 41, then went back on the Pill. Point is, it CAN happen. I wish you all the luck. Our son is now 11, and a great blessing. He's never once stepped foot into a Kingdom Hall.
Good Luck!

On the contrary:
Nearly every video from KIm and Mikey start with "the nails in the coffin" CELEBRATING more and more people who have freed themselves from the evil WatchTower Cult. If that doesn't show EMPATHY for people, than I'm not sure what does? And as for "mocking" old WT beliefs; uhh......what of it? I myself, have to sit back and have a hearty laugh at the crazy, convoluted BS that the WT Cult has spewed of the last 100+ years. If you didn't laugh at this horsesh*t, you'd have to cry, it's that ludicrous. This is the point they are at. I've been out long enough now that I can share in it. Building your new HQ on top of an old toxic dump (American Nickel) all the while claiming it's "God's Direction"? Laughable and absurd. Claiming that a generation is now composed of "overlapping generations"? Whack-a-do! WT Cult is quickly becoming as absurd and laughable as Scientology with Xenu flying over volcanoes in DC-10's. What part isn't funny, besides the blood policy and shunning?
I will say that I find JWFacts.com website to be the very best, as all it does is provide information from the WT's own literature, and then asks people to make up their own minds. No slant either way. In this respect, Paul Grundy's site is the very best. I haven't looked at Kim & Mikey's "website". I only know of their YouTube video's. If they have some other site, I'm not aware of it.
