i just got a call from a friend who said that something in last weeks watchtower caused a number of people in various congregations to start questioning things, and several long time elders left.
i am totally out of the loop but i do read things here and i heard of no such thing.. something to the effect that jw's and governing boobies are not inspired or something along those lines?.
This blatant attempt to make insignificant any human hardship as compared to the vindication of a worshipped Deity name and honor restored.
You can't anymore narcissistic than that! This WT must have blasted into the conscious mind of many a member that the GB are a bunch of narcissistic psychos and tell them to go fuck themselves. It is blatant Narcissism too obvious to hide these guys are clearly unfucking hinged nuts. Religious fucking fanatics in true form.

I think it only fair that we take a look at the next 2 paragraphs about was Jehovah a bit harsh on Job? The GB don't think so and here's why:
12 Was Jehovah harsh in giving such straightforward counsel after Job had endured so severe a trial? God was not, and Job did not think so. Despite his ordeal, Job finally began to speak appreciatively. He even stated: “I take back what I said, and I repent in dust and ashes.” Such was the effect of Jehovah’s pointed but refreshing counsel. (Job 42:1-6) Earlier, Job had also received corrective counsel from young Elihu. (Job 32:5-10) After Job responded to God’s reproof and corrected his view, Jehovah expressed to others his approval of Job’s faithfulness under trial.—Job 42:7, 8.
So once Jehovah scared the shit out of Job he began speaking "appreciatively" of Jehovah and repented by covering himself with dust and ashes and stopped asking question about Jehovah and took it on the chin. And now that Job had been corrected by God then Jehovah gave him a new family to make it up to him over his bet with Satan which he technically lost.
13. How would Jehovah’s counsel benefit Job long after his trials?
13 Jehovah’s counsel would continue to benefit Job even after his trials were over. How so? Well, though “Jehovah blessed the last part of Job’s life more than the beginning,” restoration and recovery must have taken time. He later “came to have seven more sons and three more daughters.” (Job 42:12-14) Surely Job missed his children who died earlier at Satan’s hand. For some time, he likely experienced vivid memories of his suffering. Even if he eventually better understood the reason for his trials, he may on occasion have thought about why it was necessary for him to suffer to such an extent. Whatever his thoughts, he could reflect on God’s counsel. Doing so would help him maintain the proper perspective and, in turn, provide comfort.—Ps. 94:19, ftn.
Yes his reflection on God's scare tactic had work so well that if Job had terrible flash backs or PTSD he could just reflect on more trauma inducing stuff like God speaking out of a storm wind and he will be all better. So back to work you sniveling slaves.
I think I can see why a lot of people may be jumping ship after a WT study of this one exposing the serious lack of concern for human hardships of the Governing Body/writing department/Watchtower Corporation has for it's members when compare to the issue of Jehovah's praise.

And this quote btw shows clearly that is the narcissistic attitude the Governing Body have toward their followers that they are just little pieces of shit on their royal shoes. Jehovah is so great that everybody's problems are nothing compared to Jehovah's Almightiness being besmirched by Satan challenging God's truthfulness to his Adam and causing him to eat some forbidden fruit send mankind in to a headlong spin of death and violence.
Making Jehovah's issue of His sovereignty of the Universe as thee most important thing shows just how egocentric their narcissism has gotten or how extreme their thinking is in the narcissistic direction? Look at all the lives lost because of their forbidding blood transfusions to their dying members. Russians are right they are some seriously fucked up extremist that need all their assets liquidated and thrown in prison.

Spoken like a true Naarcissist: It's all about Jehovah and You are an insignificant piece of on Jehovah's boot/shoes/sandals.
11 God’s words to Job fill four chapters in the book of Job—chapters 38 through 41. Nowhere do we read of God’s telling Job specifically the reason behind his suffering. The main point of Jehovah’s words was not to explain to Job why he was suffering, as if God had to justify himself. Rather, Jehovah wanted to help Job recognize his insignificance in comparison with God’s greatness. And he helped Job to see that there were greater issues with which to be concerned. (Read Job 38:18-21.) This helped Job regain the proper perspective.
first off to go would be information deemed unfit for heavily indoctrinated subjects.
no rival governments less freedom granted by existing ruler, just cogs in a huge fucking wheel would humans become.. no appealing to the masses of the benefits of their government and the horrors of the opposition.
they are all this generation knows.
War Pigs video depicts man's course of war and profits.
While we have different government there are wars and fights, but this also causes governments to back off in enslaving their citizens as this leads to less productivity, and has granted a measure of freedom for the human condition to use their brains they way evolution intended to exploit the environment and find solutions complex problems. How about a super Buddha Quantum Computer reading all human minds and truly understanding the human condition and offering a download on the internet for free to correct some faulty programming and ending suffering and offering great potential mental growth to use one's talents to the full or selfactualized.
Self-actualization is a term that has been used in various psychology theories, often in slightly different ways. The term was originally introduced by the organismic theorist Kurt Goldstein for the motive to realize one's full potential. Expressing one's creativity, quest for spiritual enlightenment, pursuit of knowledge, and the desire to give to and/or positively transform society are examples of self-actualization. In Goldstein's view, it is the organism's master motive, the only real motive: "the tendency to actualize itself as fully as possible is the basic drive... the drive of self-actualization."[1] Carl Rogers similarly wrote of "the curative force in psychotherapy – man's tendency to actualize himself, to become his potentialities... to express and activate all the capacities of the organism."[2] The concept was brought most fully to prominence in Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory as the final level of psychological development that can be achieved when all basic and mental needs are essentially fulfilled and the "actualization" of the full personal potential takes place,[3] although he adapted this viewpoint later on in life, and saw it more flexibly.[4]
Self-actualization can be seen as similar to words and concepts such as self-discovery, self-reflection, self-realization and self-exploration.

I think while just one government to rule the world might have its advantages, its disadvantages would tip the scales as more.
No need for vast army so good bye military industrial complex, but the downside is a clamp on human intelligence for problem solving tighter censorship of the internet and so forth man's survival skills get turned off and less freedom of thought and many other things like no one allowed to speak against the government or expect severe penalties.
lets face it the watchtower's indoctrinations effect the way we look at the world we see governments as tool of the devil.
we look at our relatives different, we will not speak to our own children if disfellowshipped.. a better world is what christians promise believers, or hell for those condemned by the deity.
kiss the ass of the deity and go to a better world, and don't forget to put something in the collection plate on sunday.. to face death with out the crutch of a future better world for beleivers, is better, as you can cherish the life you are living and be more in the present while facing what ever life throws at you.
