Counting tracts as placements on reports now?!

by stuckinarut2 in

ahhhhhh......man....... .

so now we have to count all tracts / leaflets / meeting invitations etc as placements on the monthly report slip???.

is this just another method of control or accountability!

I agree that it's all about numbers. The news out of Brooklyn will be "All time peak in number of pieces of Bible literature placed by JW's in 2014!"

i've been visiting here for about a year or so, but didn't really feel compelled to participate other than reading the various posts that interested me.. there's been that uncomfortable feeling of being disloyal to god, the organization, many friends and relatives.. i've been associated since birth.

after 65 + years of service within this organization and actually enjoying that time, it troubled me to find myself wanting to express feelings that were contrary to all that time of "faithfulness".

those years were filled with progressive "privileges and responsibilities" even at a high level, and there was considerable success in our evangelizing activity.

stirred but noit shaken

I spent 60+ years also as a dub before I got ttatt. 20 years as an elder. Too many things that didn't add up. My wife is still in but will not give up on her. Many on this site are much younger than us and saw ttatt before we did, but us "old dogs" can learn new tricks!

BOE Letter Regarding Branch Visit

by pixel in

to all bodies of elders in the united states branch territory re: branch visit in november 2014. dear brothers:.

in our letter dated february 19, 2014, to all congregations in the united states branch ter- ritory, you were informed of a special weekend program to be held on saturday, november 8, 2014, and sunday, november 9, 2014. this program is in connection with the branch visit scheduled for the united states and will be broadcast to locations throughout the branch territory.

we are pleased to inform you of some of these arrangements.. since the goal is to allow as many as possible the opportunity to benefit from this branch visit program, provision will be made to allow any kingdom hall properly equipped to receive the broadcast.

OMG! Another highly hyped big EVENT! In November no less. So a "biggie" in October, the AGM, followed by another "biggie" in November. Armagedon must really be close now. Soooooooon! Smoke screens to divert our attention or maybe the gb will have made up a reason why nothing has happened in the past 100 years or even the past 2000 years for that matter.

This seems like the precurser to having many "special" meetings at the kh's. The gb will be piped into the local kh's and everybody can hear firsthand the latest prattle. The circuit assemblies have been 'phased out' and they will now be replaced with all day internet events at the local kh. The latest wtbts videos and "cableb" cartoons will be aired to the dubs at local kh's, featuring gb members. The latest 'nu-lite' and catastrophy news can be transmitted immediately to all kh's with internet access. The new movie studio that the are setting up in Warwick can now be used to produce full length "G" rated movies for all dubs. What a wonderful provision from the gb.

WOW! Praise Jah!

"Only if you get a court order." wink, wink

by rebel8 in

recently had a discussion with a surgeon who said jw parents "usually" (her word, not mine) privately say they will take blood if the provider gets a court order.. yet another person, with no connection to dubs and no motive to make this up, saying this same thing.

interesting.. i'm surprised the thought police have not come out with an article saying jehoopla reads the hearts and judges as bloodguilty those who are relieved when forced to take blood..

eyeuse2badub

Take the friggin blood transfusion and at least give yourself or your loved one a fighting chance to live. Then claim that you were "under pressure" and stumbled, you know kinda like old Peter did when he denied Christ.

JW's were wrong about many strongly held "Truths" suchas: 1914, 1925, 1975, "this generation", who the "fds" really is, who the "superior authorities" are, etc., etc., then they got "nu-lite" and changed their doctrine. Those false teachings and subsequent changes didn't cost anyone their life. They're wrong about "no blood" and hopefully, but it's not very likely that they will someday also change that stupid doctrine. Getting the 'blood' doctrine wrong kills people.

It's always easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

My Experience and how I finally let myself see the truth

by OneEyedJoe in

first off - for those lurkers who feel guilty just for being on this site and reading this (even if you don't read any further, as it is your right to choose that course) i want you to know that you're not alone in what you're going through or in what you are feeling.

if you read on, i hope my experience may be of some small help to you.. this may be long, but i'll try to organize it in a way that doesn't make it painful to read.

to start, i feel it is most beneficial if i'm upfront and honest with my goals from posting this, which are (in order of the degree to which they motivated me):.

Knowing the truth will ultimately be the best thing you will ever have. It hurts like h*ll at first but healing cannot begin until the wound is cleaned.

420/Marijuana/Mary Jane - What Is The Society's Stance Now That It's Legal In Two States?

by Sam Whiskey in

jw
friends

sorry if it's already been discussed (i did do a search and did not see anything recent) here on the board.

now that 420 has been legalized in washington and colorado, what is the society's stance on this?

is it viewed the same as alcohol, taken in moderation?

eyeuse2badub

When "the judge" Rutherford wanted to drink booze, it was ok. When NH Knorr wanted to marry, it was ok. When Loushe and Morris wanted to be THE FDS it was ok. If any of the current or future gb members 'need' medical mj, it will be ok. Okay?

A Text Message Exchange

by Emery in

jw
friends

i have been in the fading process for over a year now.

nobody has really bothered my wife and me since we've stopped, which i am thankful for.

recently, i've had an old jw friend send me a few text messages relating to business.

This sounds so much like a discussion between me and my life-long-best friend. He is so determined to make me see the wtbts view of the bible that he thinks that I am a total idiot. He has many doubts but he always uses the"wait on jehovah" theme to get me to rethink. The rethinkis what got me to to wake up to ttatt.

If it's too good to be true; if it's too good to be believed, it probably isn't true or believable!
