raymond frantz, I hope everyone was listening when you gave that answer. Hopefully some, including the conductor, gave it a thought even for a while...

For those who are still IN and attending meetings, do you still study the WT & other books?

by ohnightdivine in

for those of you who are still attending meetings due to various reasons, how do you prepare yourself for each program?.

do you still read and study the wt?.

do you still read and study the okm, jeremiah, etc?.

ohnightdivine

Thank you all.

70wks.. you're right. And what you said about doing the best for myself without hurting others tugged at my heartstrings.

No matter how angry I am after learning TTATT, the last thing I'd want is to be hurtful to others, even to those I considered as friends.

If I become a worse person than I was, then it would be proving them that they are right.

I didn't attend today--so I guess they will think that I am enraged against God??

I don't care what they think now.

I still believe in the honest, kind and loving God, who I hope really knows what is in my heart.

paragraph 4.

I just finished re-reading today's WT article and I just wanted to cry after each paragraph. Oh, how cunning they are. I wonder how long they've been planning on releasing these articles--from the New Light, to this one? It just fits their own gloves perfectly.

Everything is just so cleverly laid out...

Notice, also, how each paragraph almost always has that question at the end. Questions to make the reader not ONLY think, but to make them doubt themselves, lower their self-esteem, and tell themselves that "yes, I agree with the WT. I should not do this, this is bad. I must really exert more effort. It's my fault." The question-technique being effectively used in Bible "studies" are also working on them, without their knowledge.

I feel sorry for those who become more depressed or feel more guilty because of the way this article was written.

The article can be summarized into:

1) "Never doubt Jehovah." = How dare you doubt the Watch Tower? The very discreet organization that has been feeding you all this ***p.

2) "Remember that Jevovah does not cause our problems."= We don't care really. It's either your fault or Satan's. The GB is here to let you know that.

3) "Do not allow negative speech to affect you." = Do not listen to those who think.

4) "Do not neglect your relationship with Jehovah." = Never stop attending meetings and field service, or else..

5) "Do not become self-centered." = Do not think. Just obey us; that is your obligation.

I almost attended today's meeting but due to some circumstances I ended up not going. Well, if I did go, I would have rolled down my seat or gone out the entire session because of this drivel. How they blatantly use God's name to fit their delusion is just very sad. And I was a part of it.

Mark Sanderson - Why Is the Newest GB Member Suddenly So Prominent?

by Oubliette in

i've noticed something that is very odd even by wt/gb standards.

why is mark sanderson suddenly so prominent in all things wt/jw?.

others have commented on the obvious narcissism of the gb pushing themselves to the fore recently, in particular after their huge doctrinal change at proclaiming themselves and only themselves as the faithful and discreet slave.. this is clearly true as evidenced at the agm, not only throughout the agm, but also in the video that was featured as part of that meeting.

I never liked that guy. Saw him a few times in the past up close.
