  Psychoanalyzing the Governing Body as a Collective Body by what they cause to be written in literature and private letters:

  by frankiespeakin in

  2. beliefs

  now would any "psychologist" on the board and i use the term loosely as i am not one professionally , and have a very rudimentary hazy knowledge of analysis.. but one of the things jung had to do with the subject is the shadow to be properly analyzed one needs to recognize the shadow we all have we all have one.

  and what happens when we repress a lot of things and stuff them into ones personal shadow, they get stronger and cause projection on the outside world that make one respond certain ways that might be termed as phobias or neurosis and even psychosis.. im sure we can spot a lot of denial and repression surfacing in what they cause to be published either publicly and in private correspondence.

  perhaps even some phobias or out right neurosis.. i bett you a really skilled psychologist could have a fruit picking holiday with the stuff they find on the net already published far and wide for all to see.

  Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word For The WTBTS To Say!

  by JW GoneBad in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  sorry to raymond and cynthia franz for expelling them on trumped-up charges and forcing them from there bethel home.. sorry for demonizing many of raymond's accomplishmets, such as 'the aid to bible understanding' (the blue book) that he had a hand in putting together and that too many old timers remember who grew fond of reading to expand their bible knowledge.. sorry to oompa for disfellowshipping him and causing him to be shunned to the point where he couldn't take it any longer and wound up taking his own life.

  .

  sorry seems to be the hardest word for the wtbts to say!.

  The Problem With The Organization Exposing Their Former Beliefs To Their Current Ones

  by minimus in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i realize some witnesses will say how wonderful it is that the governing body has put into print how their understanding has changed over the years.. the sheep and goats, the faithful and discreet slave, the evil slave class, etc.

  are all viewed differently then originally understood.. the sad thing is that if you questioned any current understanding, as explained through the watchtower, or if you disagreed with it, you would be disfellowshipped!.

  even if their understanding was totally in error, if anyone ever pointed it out, they were out!.

  To me it all seems really petty. At some point you get tired of beating a dead horse.

  It's just a failed social experiment.

  after being a witness for 40 years, i now find myself disfellowshipped.. i have had a number of doubts for a few years now, but still feel as if i'm living my life in the "t minus " to armageddon spector.. my parents are in their 80's and my dear mother is in very bad health.

  i was allowed to pop through - about once a month to make sure my parents were ok and for them to see their grandchildren.

  this all ended after the july watchtower article and especially since the district convention - with all the "counsel" on associating with disfellowshipped family members.. around 6 weeks ago, my dad asked me point blank why i wasn't trying to get reinstated.

  Long Time Bethelites Facing Job Insecurity, Old Age, And Poverty, As Watchtower Corporation Downsizes Due To Years Of Wishful Thinking, Failed Predictions And False Hopes

  by frankiespeakin in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i think many older ones at bethel have a nagging feeling that these new guys that make up the governing body now at bethel don't really give a rats ass what happens to them and that because of all the failed predictions their future is very bleak as the corporation trims all the fat and sends them on their merry way with little hope of material benifits for all years of slaving for the corporation.. the scenario or fantacy cycle for wishful thinking is: a pattern that recurs in personal lives, in politics, in history and in storytelling.

  when we embark on a course of action which is unconsciously driven by wishful thinking, all may seem to go well for a time, in what may be called the dream stage(1874-1914, 1916-1925, 1925-1975).

  but because this make-believe can never be reconciled with reality, it leads to a frustration stage(1975-2014) as things start to go wrong, prompting a more determined effort to keep the fantasy in being.

  On The Way Out.

  Couldn't agree more. Some people have to get to that point of being so Angry and Fed up. Some people will go off on the drop of a hat. I'm one of those people. I could care less what people think. I could care less what people say. I could care less. I don't have to have anyone's approval. And if a JW comes in to my space i will let them have it full on. No holding back brother. I think some people have to get to that point. After all i spent 7 years trying to hold my marriage together and having 2 jw's stand on my throat 24/7. My favorite saying now is Pound Sand! ...... "we just love this idea."

  Why do the GB need a new Bethel compound if the end is so close? Here is the "official" answer

  by sir82 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as most of us know, the society is spending 10's of millions of dollars on a giant, state of the art, secluded bunker country club headquarters in very remote, isolated warwick ny.. the question that "some" have is, why?

  if armageddon is coming "very soon", why go to all that time & effort & expense?

  why have thousands of jws dedicating their time to this massive effort instead of the "lifesaving ministry"?.

  Viva La Vida Lyrics

  from Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends

  I used to rule the world

  Seas would rise when I gave the word
  Now in the morning I sleep alone
  Sweep the streets I used to own

  I used to roll the dice
  Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
  Listen as the crowd would sing
  "Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

  One minute I held the key
  Next the walls were closed on me
  And I discovered that my castles stand
  Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

  I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
  Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
  Be my mirror, my sword and shield
  My missionaries in a foreign field

  For some reason I can't explain
  Once you go there was never
  Never an honest word
  And that was when I ruled the world

  It was the wicked and wild wind
  Blew down the doors to let me in
  Shattered windows and the sound of drums
  People couldn't believe what I'd become

  Revolutionaries wait
  For my head on a silver plate
  I'm just a puppet on a lonely string
  Oh who would ever want to be king?

  I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
  Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
  Be my mirror, my sword and shield
  My missionaries in a foreign field

  For some reason I can't explain
  I know Saint Peter won't call my name
  Never an honest word
  But that was when I ruled the world

  I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
  Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
  Be my mirror, my sword and shield
  My missionaries in a foreign field

  For some reason I can't explain
  I know Saint Peter won't call my name
  Never an honest word
  But that was when I ruled the world
