  Did you ever actually believe the JW fantasy version of "Paradise"?

  by Darth Fader The Sequel in

  i am sure this topic has probably been discussed many times before but,......... i would like reassurance that i am not the only one who gagged every time i heard a jw pontificating on their fantasy version of what "paradise" will be like.

  particularly when it comes to the animals.

  more specifically, that the animals will all become vegetarians.

  I never believed in the JW's story of paradise. I studied for so many years and got baptized because I guess I needed a sense of belonging. I wanted to believe I could meet my father again after his death. But, paradise... it is still very strange to me.

  All appointed men are being told they have to pioneer now!

  yes, you read correctly..... all appointed men have been told in a new letter that they have to pioneer to "set the lead" whenever there is a "special" campaign month.

  they use some scripture saying that these ones have to show by example.... so for any of us who are appointed and have learned ttatt, it is going to be very hard to fade during this time!.

  circuit overseer worship

  by Magnum in

  for over thirty years i observed among jws the phenomenon of co worship/idolatry.

  i, myself, was somewhat guilty of it even though i rather quickly caught on and detected something wrong.. think about the week of the co visit.

  during that week most attention is given to and most thought is about the co. the supposed sovereign of the universe takes a backseat.

  I've never cared about CO visits. Always felt like they were extremely pampered and spoiled. Field circus was a joke. The last CO was a sweaty pompous guy who did not have finesse.. was quite rude and goofy.

  New CO visited last week, I heard. Of course, I never showed up during the entire week.

  All that "upbuilding" stuff is fake.

  Do GB members poop?

  do gb members poop?.

  the question arises because of the great similarities i see between jw land and n korea.

  for one thing, the information flow is the same in the two realms; its one way from the top down.

  Of course, they do. More often than us.

  That's why they keep publishing those magazines because they already ran out of toilet paper.

  Lol. You have quite some time on your hands, Focus (just like the rest of us).

  Would you mind sharing what made you come back to the site after several / many years?

  I have a few Filipino friends, and I know too well what many go through in that country. This week and the previous week's articles only irritates me. The nerve. Many Filipino experience calamities and have to endure corruption from the government, crimes, etc. Even people earning regularly would be broke instantly if they get sick and need hospitalization. A month's treatment for cancer is already half a year's pay for many Filipinos.

  WT is very callous and ends up denigrating these people who have no other choice.

  And by the way, not all Filipinos work abroad as domestic helpers. One of my friends is working as a physician in the US; the other, a chemical engineer.

  easy... skip it!.

  but already i had people calling me asking where i was yesterday!!!!

  the system the jw's have in place can be compared to a communist regime , where everyone keeps a check on each other.
