this just in from the 2017 annual meeting:.
1. watchtowers and awakes won't be released regularly, at least three watchtower and awakes per year.
6 magazines a year.. 2. a new book is being released: remain in god's love, more of an update like how they did for the what does the bible really teach book.
I think the thing that kinda surprised me the most was they won't be printing any more yearbooks. We all thought the the org was in decline and those partaking would be really up there, especially this year. And I think we are all right. So the GB just said f*ck it! Fine, no more year books.
Just shows how non transparent they really are. Really this is great news for us in the vast apostate army.
i'm inactive here to the local jw's as i have faded.
i've been slandered and all that, shunned by some but not all, but the elders basically leave me alone.
i still run into to people all over though.
My mouth is still hanging open. :)
expect a day of fluff, more bells and whistles and boasting.
they are not going to throw shade on their glorious day.
but shortly thereafter when everyone's feeling good about themselves expect the hammer to come down during a morning worship broadcast..
Data Dog, gotta love it. Really funny!
I will be recording it. If any type of Tony Tight Pants comes around again, you can bet it will be on YouTube.
jwvictims.org has another breaking news article out of canada: https://jwvictims.org/2017/10/02/breaking-news-66-million-class-action-suit-request-filed-against-jws-in-canada/.
IF the org is truly fat with money then:
$1 billion - $66 million equals $944 million left.
BUT, if the org is NOT truly fat with money... ha ha suckers!

"Give the Watchtower yet another black eye". I love that. Perhaps the victims will get something out of this, I hope they do.
jw wedding early 1980s and where they are now.... .
According to the photo, 10 people woke up. That's great. If that's any indication about witnesses in general, then many are and will be waking up.
i know we have all talked about this topic before, but for some new ones on the forum, or to refresh ourselves, i wanted to start this thread.. the society likes to go on about the sacredness of blood, and how it should not be transfused etc.. they liken it to a symbol of life itself.
something that should be respected and therefore not transfused.. but, what is more important: real life, or a symbol of life?.
an illustration came to mind.. if we give a bunch of flowers to a loved one as a symbol of our love for them, are those flowers more important than the love itself?
I am completely convinced that if a WT article came out tomorrow saying, that it's now ok to accept blood transfusions if a person's conscience allows it, then 99% of all witnesses would do so. No doubt about it.
Same thing about blood fractions. While you were still in, how many DPA's did you come across that said NO to everything? I only know of one. And she was 80 years old at the time.
i remember like it was yesterday.
my dad pounding his fist on the kitchen table and gritting his teeth as he tells me to get out!
he kicked me out of his house.
so, now that some time has passed, i’d like some input/thoughts/analysis/etc.
on the jw construction situation in the last few years.. first, why did they discontinue the rbc arrangement and institute the ldc arrangement?
was it for more and/or better control?
I smell a rat.
