by Kosonen in

jw
friends

i found an article at zerohedge explaining how a state sponsored microchip will be redy for use in the spring for detecting corona virus infections before people feel symptoms.. the article expect that majority of the people will line up to take it.. i think this will become the mark of the beast revelation 13 speaks about.. hereis the article: .

What good does it do me to know I have coronavirus? It is just a cold--my system treats it as a stupid cold, just like the other 4 coronaviruses that just cause colds.

Im guessing you are American. If you are i think this comment is very revealing of the American mindset, and perhaps the root cause of the problems this country is facing.

I heard a joke the other day that kind of sums this up. (Q) How many Americans dose it take to change a light bulb. (A) None because they think the world revolves around them.

I think the mindset of 1st amendment. I’m loud I’m proud and to Hell with anyone else, has led to root cause of ,not only the spread of ,corona virus but also the issues they are having guns. I recently went on a tour with some Americans and to be honest I was ashamed I had the same skin colour and spoke the same language as them. Telling comment indeed and it might very well be the undoing of this country.

I noticed that a lot if not all JWs I watch on FB now have private Freinds and photos

by mickbobcat in

some have done it for a while but in the last couple of years most all of the jws from my old congregation and others i know have privatized the fb and other social pages.

i wonder if its just happenstance or if its come down from on high to shut this off to further keep them isolated from the apostates?.

joe134cd

I belonged to a closed jw face book group when I was PIMI. To be honest I found it pretty lethargic and a waste of time. Other than how wonderful it is to be in Jehovah’s organisation, it didn’t really seem to go past that. Btw the moderators certainly kept their finger on the pulse and anything negative got you blocked.

Another example of. Brotherly love you can only find in jehovahs organization

by nowwhat? in

so my 88 mil died and was the epitome of a faithful sister.

my wife and her sister are members of the congregation for 40+ years.

to be fair it was short notice but we had the showing and visitation and only about 12 out of 120 of the congregation showed up and only 1 elder!

joe134cd

3rdgen - coincidentally I can relate a similar experience to what you described. I currently have a great aunt who literally breathed the religion. Her husband was an elder for decades, and also died as an elder. She now sits in a rest home with dementia. I enquired, with the facility, about the visitors she gets. Sadly she is largely forgotten by the JWs.

KH flying Chilean Flags??

by Vanderhoven7 in

i saw a headline saying chile is demanding religious organizations fly the nations flag.. is this accurate?

is the society complying?.

It was funny when news of that was first breaking. It was so outrageous that even the apostates thought that it was apostate driven lies.

"JW Box" $30 Logo Markup Scam!!!! Huge!!!

by thedepressedsoul in

so get this, wt has something they're calling a "jw box" that gives people in africa "spiritual food".

the best part, they want donations of $75 for it!

so they don't provide any physical food to people in africa but they can send them "spiritual food" for $75.

joe134cd

I’m sorry but I can’t seem to find where they are asking for $75.

Where have the NWT Bible changed verses to fit their theology ?

by smiddy3 in

i can think of two to start off with .

john 1:1 and luke 23:43 ,what others can you come up with ?.

joe134cd

May 24;3 gets chance from coming / end of world to presence / conclusion of the system of things.

Unbelievable Freddie Franz Admissions

by Vanderhoven7 in

unbelievable admissions.. freddie confesses he fell for his own propaganda.. https://youtu.be/fkjw-r9oitk.

joe134cd

Freddy was certainly a smart man. I remember seeing an unofficial video recording someone had taken of him just before he died. Mentally he was as sharp as a razor, as he went off quoting bible passages, even though his body had wasted away. I was PIMI at the time and was impressed with his mental alertness.

another reason pandemic benefits org

by Magnum in

i've already posted in an earlier thread how the pandemic benefits the org in that it presents it an excuse to go completely electronic and sell all buildings (if that's what it wants).

however, there is another way the pandemic benefits the org; it presents it an excuse for declining numbers.. many of us have wondered just how much of a downturn there's been in jw land in recent years.

we've wondered whether the org was playing with the numbers to make the situation appear better than it was.

joe134cd

IWant2Leave - Well if that be true the JW wouldn’t be the only organisation doing it. I not only would suggest that Wt is been honest with its counting methods, but I would also go so far to say, that the preaching work has been so successful that it would make apple computers proud to have a customer base like that.

Meanwhile over at exjw reddit

by nowwhat? in

it has no value at all.

it consists of 99% dumb, confused kids asking stupid hypothetical questions.

joe134cd

Yes I tend to agree with the poster here. It mainly consisting of young kids wanting out, so they can hook up with the BF or go party. I find the conversation here to be of a much higher standard. Also, if I am after deep meaningful replies it will be here that I post first. To be honest I find reddit to be a place of silly ness from kids.

joe134cd

I’ve always argued, by extension of , LDS statistics that WT isn’t playing with numbers. I believe wt numbers to be totally transparent and if anything underestimates membership growth.
