news report.
man found dead at jehovah's witness facility.
the daytona beach news-journal.
Well said DD. Y wood jehober protect King David the murderer, or Lot the incest monger or Solomon the the apostate and not poor old Seante?
Maybe cause there ain't no jehober? Or if there is he don't give a sh*t bout translating the bible into sign language. Maybe jehober is pissed that the wtbts has change the bible to meet their own needs and don't want anymore of the "blind leading the blind"?

the c.o has visited.
what gems did he have for the sheeple?
he gave a talk that was entitled "rejoice in the truth!
What i REALLY loved was last summer's DC or RC what ever, talk entitled, "100 years of Kingdumb Rule". What a friggin' joke! How did the speaker keep a straight face? I snickered through the whole talk much to the chagrin of my wife. She knew why I was snickering and I truly believe that she had a hard time keeping a straight face at some of the ridiculous crap the speaker said.

how many were baptized in your area, last assembly?.
santa paula, ca..........17..
So sad that parents are allowing their pre-teen and/or young teenage kids to make "the most important decision of your life" . They haven't even lived any of their life! I wonder if those same kids told their jw parents that they wanted to get married right away, which is only the second most important decision of your life, how many would start planning a wedding! LOL

the internet is the archive for civilization.. watchtower cannot hide it's history.. are we seeing the beginning of a mass exodus out of her?.
As the growth slows down, the gb will find a scripture to twist about how it was prophesied that as the end approached (TM) there would be a slowing down of the growth in jehobers organization. After all there are over 35,000 scriptures that they can twist.

long time lurker here.
i don't want hate in our hearts - jw are wrong oh so wrong - and i want to blame this religion for making me cold and distant to the world.
but i believe everything is meant to be, we all have purpose in this world.

Are you really a spy for the wtbts trying to get us all to reveal who we really are? LOL
Just kidding. It's part of the paranoia i grew up with being a dub. You know--never trust anyone unless they are a jw because satan is out there trying to snatch us all. LOL

growing up, i never ever even saw these guys faces, or even knew their names.
all of a sudden they're on my computer screen, tv, and on every other magazine coming out of the watchtower machine.
why all the glamour now?
It was better when we didn't know them. At least then we THOGHT that they had jehober guiding them----maybe. Now that we know them, we know how truly stupid and self absorbed they are. It's like seeing a very stately older lady---naked. Not a pretty sight.

.........................as soon as any fellow witness can -.
a) provide just one bible verse that proves jesus personally selected anyone in 1919 - let alone j.f.
rutherford & co. - as his "faithful slave".
Me 2 I want to pioneer again! Hell, I'll settle for any proof that jw's are the only true religion.

this topic has been on my mind lately.
i have been looking around at jws and wondering how many truly believe the end is as near as they are told.
from my personal experience, i know that my parents fully believe the end is imminent and may come any time now.
Deep down in their hearts, probably no jw really believes anymore. It's extremely difficult to admit their lack of belief but reality has set in for most. And of course all they need to do is look at their leaders and see that the gb is NOT preparing for the end, they are preparing to expand jehober's earthly possessions. The only urgency today in the wtbts is survival.

every active jw that stays in hiding their knowledge about ttatt is a hole in the watchtower wall.
i propose those who can stay in, should, especially if they have high positions.
how else can we know what they are up to?
Although, I'm in the no service, donation, participation, kh cleaning, nor go to any 'special meetings' group, I don't see any point in making a hasty disassociation from the borg. My family is still in but I can see them weakening each passing month. I get to spread a little of ttatt nearly every week or meeting that I go to. Damn this is so much fun to know everything that goes on 'behind closed doors' so to speak. i love it when just last week an elder friend of mine started telling me about the 'elders only' meeting regarding the new kh building arrangement. Holy s**t, I knew more about it than he did and I let him know it in a round about way. Man it was fun!

the borg seem to prepare for changes by missing explanations out for a while then presenting a "new understanding" which doesn't contradict the most recent discussion.check out the most recent references to gog - no identification as satan.. in today's wt study, paragraph 15 concerning benefitting from the prodigal son stated "if we meet a person who has strayed from the congregation, will we offer loving and practical help to assist him to return?
" there is no footnote or other qualifier saying not to go to disfellowshipped ones (who are definitely the ones being talked about) which is still the official policy.
i know this isn't an ending to shunning, but it may signal the start of the preparation for a change.
I also noticed a sort of 'change' in the shunning policy being alluded to in the wt yesterday. i think that someone at Brooklyn is assigned to monitor this and other 'apostate sites' in order to get some real life understanding of the bible in the proper context. The 'prodigal son' certainly does not properly illustrate the current df'ing policy by the borg.
What I saw being intimated was a sort of 'nu-lite', a difference between df'ing and shunning. in other words, if someone is coming to meetings, then dubs can greet them at the kh only. No socializing. That was the buzz at our kh yesterday.
Is it possible that the gb has heard enough from the r and f regarding the inhumane practice of shunning, and/or that they know that many are not following the shunning bs when it comes to close friends and family?
