  Careers in the org? Let's see!!!!!!!!

  What about pioneering? That's the best career in the whole wide world.

  Then there is international work. What better career than this. You get to learn how to build kingdom halls and imagine the asset you will be in paradise when you can help restore the earth.

  Gilead ( that was the career I was striving for)

  Bethel service (what a great career this is--you get to be at the forefront of god's eartly organization)

  Imagine you can be a career girl or guy and you don't have to go to school. You only need to go and knock on people's doors and offer the watchtowe and awake. How easy is that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  1. allergy to the wall paper (I know someone who stays away from meeting because of this)

  2. sensitive to mould and perfume

  3. getting a call from overseas and didin't feel it would be mannerly to cut them off.

  4. play the health card. (Depression, fiber myalgia, migraines, flu, etc.)

  I find that if you play it right and don't miss all of them no one will miss you.

  Also it helps to be in a big congregation and if someone says I didn't see you , you can say I didin't see you either brother where were you sitting?

  What is the REAL cost of the Watchtower?

  by iiz2cool in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm just guesstimating with my figures here, but if they're even close it shows what a tremendous waste of life the watchtower is.

  some non jw friends tried to point this out to me many years ago.

  i wish i listened then.. .

  How sad that so many lives are being wasted.

  Just this morning when I was taking my kids to school , I saw a couple of young pioneers standing at the corner. I got a knot in the pit of my stomach thinking just as you say. What a waste of resources, money, youth. I really felt sorry for them.

  Bizarre Assembly Seating

  by metatron in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  once again, brothers try to strangely compensate for reduced attendance by roping.

  off sections and compressing everybody into a smaller area.

  is this nuts or what?.

  At the local hall they put "reserved" on the last 3 back rows. But it doesn't matter. People come in and take the papers off and sit where they want.

  Funny, If you go to a concert or play people want those front seats. They will pay more to sit in the front.

  At the halls the opposite occurs. The majority tries to steer away from the front. It shows how much most "love" the meetings.

  It sounds like he has executive function disorders.

  If he has good grades the school will not test him but a private child psycologist might be able to give a lot of information.

  The brochure is entitled: "Stay on the Watch!"

  This is a tactic to keep the masses of jw thinking the end is around the corner. Also this is the brochure that makes one vague mention to 1914.

  The campaign is supposed to last one month BUT you just can't leave this precious piece to just anybody. It has to be left only to ones that show real interest.

  The C.O. visiting local congragation said this brochure is more the for jw who are sitting on the fence.

  Two faced lying hypocrites

  2. scandals

  i just came across this link advertising an award dinner by the canadian bar association.. http://www.cba.org/cba/news/2004_releases/2004-08-17_probono.asp.

  it announces shane brady of georgetown (bethelite) as the winner of the probone award for 2004. i'll let the announcement speak for itself.. .

  what burns me is that the brady is on a vow of poverty, and gets his marching orders from bethel.

  Hard to get over: No New System

  by confusedjw in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i have to tell you something.. i really find it hard getting over the idea of no new system and all that it meant to me.

  to be with my children and their children forever in perfect health.. too many days it just leaves me empty.

  i just wish i could shake it and enjoy life, but the idea that we just live for 70 years and die kills me.

  I also grapple with this from time to time. I try not to think about it.
