You smoke ? ......................Sorry but I have my standards and principles and this is simply not acceptable in my books as a faithful ex-JW.

And you vote ?....................but you covering that up right.......so much for your respect for the good and faithful ol men leading the cult !

Look you a tosser trying to play game here and pull the piss with people on the forum -

Why don't you switch from smoking Cigars to something more............"enlightening" ?

And then you are boastful too................Lissen ....****-off !

Jared Kushner's Company Removes Famous New York City Jehovah's Witness Sign

by pleaseresearch in

the famous sign is now officially down.

is that something you would ever want in your house or garden as memorabilia?.

https://uk.news.yahoo.com/jared-kushner-apos-company-removes-044830389.html.

With a mighty voice he shouted: "'Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great!' She has become a dwelling for demons and a haunt for every impure spirit, a haunt for every unclean bird, a haunt for every unclean and detestable animal.

Counting time calling on inactive ones?

by stillin in

had a couple of witnesses stop by yesterday to say the usual "we miss you, missed you at the meeting, just checking in on you, etc.

" i've always liked this guy so we spoke for a few minutes.

my wife said that they could count their time since i am inactive.

AFRIKANMAN

There are obscure "rules" like that ~

eg A Public Speaker could count the time spent delivering the talk as it was a Public talk ~

You can always tell them that they are welcome to chat to you but that your don't think they should count the time - the visit will be brief after that .

Matthews 24:14 And Watchower Corporation's Cart Witness To The World And Then The End Will Come

by Brokeback Watchtower in

the speaker fishing for a young child's to comment asks: "where is the scripture found that forms the basis for our preaching/witnessing work?

" a ton of hands from the older ones of this vastly aged crowd, and finally at some hesitation a hand goes up from the recently baptized 8 year old with the correct answer and proudly exclaims when the microphone gets to him:"matt.

" to which all the old timers smile with approval as he sets a fine example for the 2 or 3 remaining young ones forced to go to these indoctrination sessions by their parents.. matt.

What is the benifits to living forever?

by Jayk in

can anyone give me a valid reason for it?

growing old is a drag.

the witnesses idea of ever lasting life, that you will come back to your most youthful state is such a bs answer..

I am a violinist - and the constant striving to improve / move and evolve my playing ability along with angst and frustration is what keeps me coming back for more. So the thought of JoeDoe my Artist friend learning and perfecting the violin in the Paradise ...the same as me .....is scary in its vanity! wtf? Does this imply a plateau point eventually ? I find the thought boring !

WTBTS and the CCJW ?

by Crazyguy in

apparently they made this new corporation called the christian congregation of jehovah’s witnesses in the year 2001. this is the religious side of the cult and wtbts is the printing side and probably the money side.

since the gb think they are of the ccjw and have even stated their non affiliation with the wt is their a way that jws can use this to their advantage, maybe during a jc etc.?

i for example was baptized before 2000 so with the new corporation formed and the gb going to that side what could be argued during a jc?

AFRIKANMAN

Its a legal co-out ploy as well as seen by the Loesch bullshit

Jehovah uses the government to discipline his people

by StephaneLaliberte in

i had a conversation with my dad concerning the legal cases the jws are loosing and how their policies are still lacking.

he answered that he has confidence that jehovah will give his people the wisdom and discernment necessary to make the changes.

i then explained that most of the improvements were made as a result of various court cases, including the australian commission.. my dad: well, than, jehovah uses the governments to discipline his people just like he did with the jews.
