I think the situation is very grave for the corporation and the 15% increase in funds for the last 2 months a out right lie or produced by some creative book keeping.

Also I wouldn't trust the organization figures about growth because they are in serious denial of anything negative happening to the corporation. Their tract record of lying and misinterpretation of situations needs to be brought to the table when analyzing anything they put in print or say. The fact that they are putting a halt to all these project should be a very real indicator that they are in serious trouble, which is no doubt exacerbated by their own denial to face the facts and a deep retreat into their delusional appointment by a supreme Deity(believing their own bullshit hype).

General health after learning TTATT

by Darkknight757 in

4 months ago i was conducting the watchtower study along with a long list of responsibilities that come with being an elder in a very goofy congregation.

during this time my health was going down hill.

i've always had a low blood pressure,(102/65 or abouts) but for the past year it had creeped up to 135/90 range.. so 2 months ago after learning ttatt, i'm still considered an elder because the brothers won't let me step down, but i haven't done anything in that time except comment once at a meeting a few weeks ago.

I'll have to say that the day-to-day stress of life has been much relieved since knowing what is really going on though.

Could be that your cognitive dissonance has been lessened which creates discomfort. I'm sure it is a multiplication of things having a good effect once you learn TTAT . I'm sure results can vary depending on set and setting when one learns TTAT.

.....Over decades, thousands of studies funded by hundreds of millions of National Institutes of Health dollars have been performed. It is long past time to ask: What has this enormous body of research taught us regarding the understanding or treatment of hypertension? Should further money be poured into mind/body research in hypertension? In this two-part blog, I will address these questions, based on what research tells us, and based on my own research and clinical experience.
It is clear that in most cases, genetic factors and health habits (diet, weight, salt intake, lack of exercise) are the major contributors to hypertension. In my professional estimation, about 40 percent of hypertension is attributable to genetic factors, and another 40-50 percent to health habits. Healthy diet and exercise have been consistently shown to lower blood pressure. In some they normalize blood pressure, but in many they don't, either because of genetic factors that don't respond to these measures, or because of inadequate adherence to healthy habits. Here, medications will usually do the job, and, in fact, 50 of the 75 million Americans with hypertension are taking medication.
What, then, is the role of psychological factors? Psychological studies in hypertension focus on identifying psychological causes, but not on the proportion of hypertension that is attributable to psychological factors. My research and experience suggest that psychological factors do not play a major role in most cases, but are very relevant in about 10-15 percent, and that research attention should be focused on that 10-15 percent and not on everyone with hypertension. ........

Geoffrey Jackson and the Australian Royal Commission's timing of events

by Tenacious in

i'm not sure why i was thinking this but does anyone else find it an incredibly rare coincidence that geoffrey jackson just so happened to be in australia attending to his father when the arc happen to be at the exact stage for him to be deposed as a witness?

what are the chances of him being in the country at that precise moment?.

divine intervention?

Don't forget bad Karma and Synchronicity

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsKz1FBPTxc

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronicity

Synchronicity is a concept first explained by psychiatrist Carl Jung, which holds that events are "meaningful coincidences" if they occur with no causal relationship, yet seem to be meaningfully related.[1] During his career, Jung furnished several slightly different definitions of it.[2]
Jung variously defined synchronicity as an "acausal connecting (togetherness) principle," "meaningful coincidence", and "acausal parallelism." He introduced the concept as early as the 1920s but gave a full statement of it only in 1951 in an Eranos lecture.[3]
In 1952, he published a paper "Synchronizität als ein Prinzip akausaler Zusammenhänge" (Synchronicity – An Acausal Connecting Principle)[4] in a volume which also contained a related study by the physicist and Nobel laureate Wolfgang Pauli.[5]
Jung's belief was that, just as events may be connected by causality, they may also be connected by meaning. Events connected by meaning need not have an explanation in terms of causality. This contradicts the Axiom of Causality in specific cases but not generally.
Jung used the concept to try to justify the paranormal.[6]
A believer in the paranormal, Arthur Koestler wrote extensively on synchronicity in his 1972 book The Roots of Coincidence.[7]

Have we become what we despise so much?

by Tenacious in

the majority of members who tend to join this forum have been hurt possibly even traumatized sometimes to the point of wanting to end their lives.

upon joining the forum, new members are welcomed with open arms, welcome messages start pouring in, "likes" are freely given, a false sense of security is promoted where a member is free to speak his mind without having to worry about the wt gestapo.

again, similar to how potential converts are welcomed and "love bombed" upon entering a kh for the first time.

I think it is unrealistic to feel that every ones comments should be so kind and helpful. The forum has a multitude of personalities that you can't control so arguments will arise and some will write things we don't agree with, which a very healthy IMO. If we are over sensitive perhaps a thicker skin is need so as not to be overly hurt by another's comments.

"You guys think the WTS is gonna hang Toole out to dry?"

I don't think so but I do think that he will lose his license to practice putting the WT in a bind and force them to seek outside help with their legal problems. Thus the urgent call for lawyers and accountants among the R&F that have been sufficiently indoctrinated to handle their legal woes which will shortly increase exposnetially.
