Were the elders informed about the construction shutdown?

by LevelThePlayingField in

anybody know?

So changes were made, but who cares because were so deep into the end, nothing the Organization does, really matters—does it?

by John Aquila in

so i called a few jwdubs that still talk to me, not to try to convince them of anything or wake them up but to try to get a feedback on how they took the big meeting change and other announcements.

generally speaking, all the ones i talked to were not even fazed by the changes.

many of them still didnt even realize the meeting format had changed and thought the layoffs were a normal thing that happens all the time.

You said it John, they just won't wake up. Just close your eyes and obey. Never mind the elephant in the room. Never mind the governing body member that told lies upon lies at the Royal Commission, never mind, never mind, just obey.

You have to admit, the carrot is pretty alluring.

by John Aquila in

there were several families that were visiting my mom today and i was sitting in and just listening to all of them talk..

they started talking about the recent shooting at the university.

and its so easy for them because all they have to say is;.

John - you are so right. For people that are that blind, it wouldn't matter how much TTATT you showed them, they would just say, "yeah, but Jehovah knows what's going on...". and they would just keep on 'serving Jah' so to speak. They really just don't get it.

On a need to know basis - The Letter

by no-zombie in

we've just had our sunday meeting and the letter was read out to the congregation.. however, there was no mention of the bethel lay-offs or the building program shut-downs.. looks like we are on a need to know basis, here in australia..

Figures, the GB will not tell anyone about anything negative. That's why the Royal Commission never made the news section of JW.ORG.

EVERYBODY HOLD UP A MINUTE!!! The GB Lawyers may see this thread and know all about this plan and send out a letter in advance of 8/8 to let the BOE know of this and foil the whole plan! This site is still public you know. What are your thoughts on this??

The End Is Near...

by freemindfade in

so we all know and are seeing that as the org is taking some kind of financial beating it is being interpreted, either by design or not, that armageddon is coming any second now.

well from our vantage point we can see the only end that may be near is for the publishing company itself, wtbts, and not the world.

its sickening to hear loved ones and friends say this, that this means the desert god is coming to wipe out most of humanity.

I say bring down the house. Have a drink on me, all that. WT is has made its bed and now it's time to lay in it.

Template to dump Special Pioneers

by avaddohn94 in

"downsizing" has reached special pioneers.. this is the template mexico is using to get rid of many of its special pioneers.

see how cold and unloving is the language they use.

a translation attempt is as follows:.

Maybe Simon's right. Maybe they're not really broke. Maybe they really are just evil.
