Hello,
Funny thing about your emails and mistakes from the past. I think about the past. And the mistakes that I have made. And you. And my feelings. And my feelings about you.
Maybe one of this days I will call you. Maybe you are the one who I need to talk to. I will call you soon.
(and then wait for his answer)

Yep... I was there, just next to you.
By far the most manipulative convention that I can recall.
And the agony of walking around!!!
I was expecting somebody to explode a bomb there, and send us all to the heaven. A lot of people will be grateful (me included)

WT advices to not becomes an immigrant (sort of advice, in this DC)
Why?
When you are an inmigrant and you go to an economical supperior country it means that:
1) you went there to make money, not to work half time to do the minimum money and pionering
2) you are not where they need you most: the preaching work is doing nothing in the developed countries, they grow in the poor countries. So they need people to stay in the poor countries.
3) when you are in a developed countries, most of the problems that you saw and suffer everyday are gone, so the hope for paradise are less strong (and less needed)
4) when you move to another country, you lose your ties to the congregation (your friends) and they have less control over you (remember, they use your friends as blackmail)
5) you will find out in developed countries that you need education. And problably you will have the opportunity (and that can affect your cult training)
6) in developed countries are far more ways to spend the weekend and have fun!
7) in developed countries the people have better education, so they can make yourself dumb in the doors (and, after a while, you awake to the fact that you are not the bible expert that you think you are)
8) if you go to another country and sucess, it seems that you have any talent that they need to use (for free) where is needed (in the poor territories).
So, yes... It's easy to see why the want that nobody moves to improve their situation. It's an increased risk to lose a member, maybe a productive one.
Yes? No?

Gerrit Loesch was at our DC today!
by goatshapeddemon inso, unexpectedly, the final talk was announced today and to my surprise and evil glee, they announced gerrit loesch as the speaker!
first off, at the beginning of his talk, he interrupted himself in the middle of his sentence to scold the microphone brother to lower my mike it's right in my face.. anyway, it was the talk on inspired truth, vs. inspired falsehoods.
he went through 6 expressions inspired by the demons.

The antidote to the myth that JWs are declining
by slimboyfat inone of the most persistent myths on this website is that jws are already in decline, the rot has set in, and the descent of the watchtower is inevitable from here on in.
unfortunately the facts do not bear this out.
jws are still increasing even in most developing countries, and they are still growing worldwide at a faster rate than the general population.

Crisis of Conscience and the preaching work with WT literature
by losingit in"it is interesting to contrast the deliberate elimination of prayers andsongs at witness meetings in mexico with the action of the watchtower society in the united states, where they were willing to fightcase after case all the way up to the supreme court of the countryrather than give up certain practices, such as offering literature fromdoor to door without a license and without having to register withthe police, the right to use sound cars, distribute literature on streetcorners, and many other such practices which are covered byconstitutional rights.
the organization did not want to relinquish anyof these things.
it fought to hold on to them, even though theseparticular practices are certainly not things that were done by earlychristians in the first century and hence cannot be counted as amongprimary christian practices.".
