Nonbelieving mates
by road to nowhere ina couple of my wife's friends are married to non witnesses.
they say jehovah must have special plans for them.
and that it is a special exception not destruction, alas, they are not attractive so my special idea about polygamy won't cut it.

Was you or your family ever a local needs talk subject?
by Foolednomore inour family was always a topic on a local needs talk.
but it was funny when the brothers needed money they would come with their hands out.
this is when we lived in the states.

For some of us the threat to withhold privileges doesn't work
Awakening to realise JW "privileges" are not privileges, but a scheme which allows WT to:
- acquire free labour
- control by obligation
- wield fear of loss
WT invents all sorts of fake privileges...
commenting
microphone handling
project food handling
ranks of hourly "pioneering"
cleaning overseer
hospital patient visitation group
fulltime servant
special fulltime servant
There must be hundreds more of such phony privileges in the JW cult world, with mass numbers of JWs pandering to pursue those fake privileges, even making them their lifetime "goal".
WT manipulatively offers these fake privileges, and threatens to revoke said "privileges" as punishment for even petty noncompliance...
This, of course, is exactly what one would expect from "the modern day brothers of Christ"

in 1972, i was 25 years old following a strong impulse carrying me 1,500 miles.. i intended to find him - my dad.
he’d left when i was about half a year old.. his home in detroit, michigan had been the first house i lived in at age zero.. i knocked on his door and he answered.

Booster shots required for Bethelites and special full time servants?
by PimoElder init’s a shame the gov body did a big u turn on vaccines .
if they continue with the rule that only fully vaxed can go back to the hall then i could have stayed on zoom.
but the term fully vaxed is a moving target, if it’s been like six months since your last shot you are just the same as those of us who are unvaxed .

If such mass harm eventually befalls JWs as a result of jabs, WT will spin it as "persecution"... a Haman-like scheme... and thus further evidence JWs are the one and only true religion, in the universe.

Investment departments in Bethel
by Mikejw ini was a bethelite in london for many years then got reassigned to the field and then went on brd from the start of chelmsford right upto covid.. during my years at the branch i was sometimes asked to be on a team who went to homes donated to the branch when some older one died.. this happenes an awful lot, everything is left to the branch in the will.
the unbelieving family is furious they didn’t get left anything and sometimes they tried to get their elderly relatives possessions and there was a legal battle .
but in the end a team of us would go and empty the property and another team would clean it up and put it on the market to sell it for the worldwide work.. all the possessions were sorted into trash or possibly valuable .

"Medical studies have shown..."
- Which medical studies?
- Why does WT omit citations to these "medical studies" ?
