The friends in the 60's and 70's that became JW's, teachers, doctor, salesmen, city supervisor,
professional athlete yes professional people in my congregation. What is interesting most
of those folks are still JW's today and struggling financially.

Quality of newer membership
by Lostandfound inon a previous post mamacita29 pointed up the low quality of new jw converts.. is the quality falling even more as the society use lower than low meeting, talks, broadcasts etc.. when i was active initially the organisation and standards seemed totally different today.
i have seen hard working intelligent elders fall by death or exhaustion.
the younger generation that came along never really grasped responsibility hence shortage of good elders, never mind the watered down to almost nothing quality of meetings.

That's what I realized the mind set. Even though I had walked a way I still had the
JW mind set. I defended the shunning policy for years, it was a act of love I told
people. I was one who believe it was the best religion out there, but not for me.
OH boy , when I saw the light I became the true Apostate, ISIS in reverse.

That is what separate Jehovah's organization from all others, the GB are possessed
by something, what I don't know.

Who did you believe the scriptures were describing when you were a JW?
by James Mixon init never hit me until i was out.

on other people shoulders".

cumbersome Loads=alcoholism,over the counter drugs, stress,anxiety and
other fun stuff. I don't think this is what Jesus had in mind.
But if you want to become a JW, you will have a great time.

I detest the GB the head of the snake, and I would tell that to each GB member to his face.
You can not say, they know not what they do.

What were those heavy burdens?
They were numerous, expensive, requiring much time, much property and free labor.
The Pharisees were rigid in requiring that all the people should pay the taxes, give
of their property, comply with every part of the law with the utmost rigor, yet they
indulged themselves and bore as little of the expense and trouble as possible,
so that, where they could avoid it, they would not lend the least aid to the
people in the toils and expense of their religious rites.
Will the real Pharisee of today stand up please.

Proof of Jehovah's fast moving chariot!
by Sour Grapes inat the meeting sunday, the brother giving the "public talk" (no one from the public is ever there) was talking about how the organization is moving so fast.
as proof of this he held up the new field service time slip.
yep, that was plenty of proof for me, a smaller time slip to guilt the congregation to use their tablets in service to show video's.

My brother told my sister, great things are happening. The young people are having a great times,
the organization is on the move. I wonder is this a last ditch attempt to put a positive spin
on the organization. Maybe a letter was sent to the elders, " We are in deep sh---t..."

I cannot believe this in still being taught today. So they can not be in the same place but they
can do the nasty with earthly women.
I'am sorry, I try to believe but it's very difficult.

Kinda Sad Re: Cart "Witnessing"
by Captain Schmideo2 inslightly redacted for privacy of those involved.. so, this is "park witnessing" in oklahoma.. the parks in this community are basically walking trails and some tatty playground equipment.
most of the time, sparsely used, and today was a very blustery day.. notice the justifying comment- "quite a few" checking out the cart.
i am sure they were..... .

Do they realize how silly they look. Oh yes, that's a religion I would love to join.
Have there been one assembly part on how great the cart work is doing.
You know something like, I was working the cart work and a guy had just mugged this little old
lady in the park and he ran by my cart and the angel tripped him right in front of my cart. I placed
a WT with him while he was down. He is now my bible study. We are still working on returning
the little old lady purse. But Jehovah is great, sorry I mean the GB is great.
