  The Great Leap err Sideways

  by Slidin Fast in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  one of the most disturbing aspects of the recent cut backs is the big brother communist undemocratic aspect to it..

  in china in the fifties untold millions died of starvation when on a whim the great leap forward made the economy do a u turn.

  anyone who objected even slightly was in big deep trouble.

  SLIDIN, you just need to learn how to obey so you can have Jehovah's blessing.

  For your review:

  What makes WT think they can reassign Bethel volunteers to be Regular Pioneers.

  by Zoos in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  when the gb cuts loose 1600 volunteers, what makes them think they can continue telling them how they will spend their time?

  i've read on many of these threads that the 1600 will be reassigned.

  what, are they still under some sort of contract?.

  Thanks for the responses. It makes sense now to view the rhetoric as wishful thinking on the part of WT... or good 'ole fashioned spin and marketing.

  I know the GB feels it OWNS Christ's belongings, but to presume to dictate such an assignment after you fire someone is a bit much even for those egomaniacs.

  Presumably these 1600 will go home to the congregations from which they came, probably live with friends or relatives for starters, get jobs, eventually a home of their own, take on the responsibilities of everyday life. Most of them will probably not have the time available for field service any more than J.Q. Publisher.

  Or are the threads only assuming these ex-Bethlites will be regular pioneers?

  a good source just just told me that at morning worship today that the governing body announced that a total of 1600 bethelites will be let get go and not transferred to warwich when the last property is sold in brooklyn and all kingdom hall building projects are on hold for at least a year so that all the focus will be on the preaching work.

  Excerpts from "The Book that Jesus Approved"

  by clarity in

  2. beliefs

  funny how the catholics see jesus outline on a sheet or on a piece of toast & revere it, but jw's just throw away books that they say jesus looked at and accepted as the only truth !

  bumping a very interesting thread from a few years back...... .

  Impression of Leaked Letter Regarding Annual Meeting

  by freemindfade in

  1. watchtower

  the letter that watchtower free put up was very interesting.

  here is my impression.. the watchtower is becoming more and more geared towards idiots.

  the midweek meeting has a stupid name, and the parts sound equally dumb.

  First time unwitnessing to a stranger

  by C0ntr013r in

  2. experiences

  i was sitting on a train, across from me was a middle-aged man reading: "knowledge that leads to everlasting life" .

  it was in english which is not the native language here.

  it was underlined so i figured he was either a foreign jw or a study.

  Like we were always taught in the service meetings, "You never know what kind of seeds you may have planted."

  Good job!

  OP... You should capitalize on this by ramping up the vomit factor.

  Find a pic of the GB and tag it with a line that expresses how seeing the sons of God on JW broadcasting every month make you feel even close to Jehovah.

  Really get the man-worship rolling. It might wake up some more minds.
