Yes, that "Judah Ben Schroeder" thing literally means Judah son of Schroeder... how cute.

But the name selection could also indicate delusions of grandeur, as if god almighty would somehow use this son-of-a-GB in some lofty prophetic significance.

That delusional grandeur seems to align with the profile of the father, Albert Schroeder of the GB, who personally contributed enormous volumes of now obsolete interpretive content within the original edition of "Revelation - Its Grand Climax at Hand!" which included many references to "spiritual Israel" and the "anti-typical" "modern day" 12 tribes...

Perhaps in the mind of GB member Albert Schroeder, his son Judah Ben Schroeder, might somehow, with a WT funded legal degree, become part of a modern day, anti-typical, spiritual Lion-out-of-tribe-of-Judah "class"... "by extension"...

Is WT Influencing Dubs To Check On Other Dubs' Activities Via ZOOM And Otherwise?

by HiddlesWife in

the reason for my question is because one pimo has noticed that there are some pimis--particularly spimis--who have remarked that they "are not going to contact nor associate with the friends who are delinquent on zoom and/or at in-person kh meetings, conventions, and assemblies".

i've noticed this as well: a few ppimis and pimqs who were very close to me and my exdub family members are hearing from them less and less lately than before last year's rc and this year's rc.

so, is the above a thing nowadays?

Sounds like localized JW vigilantes, nothing more.

Elders hounding members to quit their jobs due to missing too many meetings

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

how many times did you see elders hounding congregation members to quit their jobs due to missing meetings?.

my brother worked at a grocery store at 16 years old.

he would miss tuesday's ministry school due to his work schedule.

Do we have to sign a vow of poverty first?

No fundraisers for Judah Ben Schroeder nor any other WT elites benefiting from nepotism and cronyism.

The real intent is to reexpose these little WT secrets for lurking readers and those that have forfeited prospects of gainful personal success in order to slave away for the WT machine only to be left at the curb uncompensated and disadvantaged.

At best, one might receive hospice care at the WT infirmary unit in Fishkill NY; but more likely "reassigned" to scrape out a living elsewhere, trusting that their "vow of poverty" will be miraculously rewarded.

Should a Christian celebrate Christmas?

by Samsie in

hello, i'm new here and have woken up to the real truth concerning the org.

i'm sort of fading away at the moment.... i need help with something, i used to as a child celebrate christmas and have always had amazing memories of it (my husband hasn't as he was born into the org) but i gave it up when i learnt the "truth".

my interest was only in pleasing god and still is.
