When I was handing out invitations for the memorial, one guy who opened the door , took it and flung in on my face. I convinced myself it was persecution.

WT considers anyone who rebels against WT as Gods enemies rather than those who sinned and were disfellowshipped.

"Even if their are no original texts still available Jehovah will have made sure that the texts that are available will be the same as the originals. He will make sure of that .After all he is GOD."
An Almighty god cannot preserve his holy writings through out the ages ? And this god also remains silent when his name is taken out of his own book. A "Jealous" god who wipes out millions of people (As said in the Bible) remains silent when his holy book's originals are lost and/or tampered
If I write a book I would preserve the originality and copyrights, at least until I am alive.

The Bible a wierd book.
by James Mixon insome events in the bible can be questionable but there are some stories the rings of truth, and why do i say that because they are so descriptive.
judges 3:22 "ehud an israelite judge, goes to the king of the moabites to pay annual tribute.
instead, he pulls out a dagger and stabs the sh--t out of the king while he is bathing, he literal caused the sh--t to flow and the dagger disappeared in the folds of the king's skin.

The Bible Writers would have laughed their heads off , had they known that their writings would be believed and revered by millions in the future.

Are JWs the most corporate religion?
by cookiemaster ini find it pretty shocking how corporate the jw religion is.
i never saw it this way when i was in but now that i look at it from a different perspective, it seems quite clear.
much of the terminology used by jws is corporate inspired.

True, the JW religion exhibits more of a Corporate culture than a religion. Haven't seen this in any other religion, I know of.
- Calling preaching as "Field Service"
- Turning in time for field service. (American Corporate style of submitting time sheets for the hours worked)
- Ponzi Scheme to add members.
- Privileges (promotions in job) according to time worked.
- They boast that they don't take donations but have contribution boxes in all their facilities as well as ask for it in local needs.
- Dress Code. No beard for men.
- All revenue from the bottom are channeled to the top(Governing Body) for a luxurious life style.
- Claiming tax exempt, posing as a charitable Org, whereas hardly doing any charity at all.
- False advertising about themselves, that are wholly contrary to the truth.
- Hiding their real history to new converts. Like a car company that hides its faulty designs and related accidents in the past, to a new customer.
- Requiring unquestionable faith from its members. Shunning Ex members (This is more than a Corporate culture)
- Dangerous and lethal policies that kill their own members.(Blood ban and Organ ban in the past) Yet, shamelessly and without any guilt they carry on their own business without any hesitation
- Hiding child abuse cases, with corporate growth as their only agenda.

Hello Eddie, Sorry I am suspicious that you are even a Baptized JW as you claim. I say this because you might have been very well brainwashed by the JWs that you shouldn't have any blog posting activities.
A new dedicated JW convert would be quite busy and enthralled in his JW activities, like a kid opening presents on a Christmas day - and not posting anything like this. And if this is your post-baptism picture, I don't think your elders would allow for a beard.

Today's Text - Justifying The Increase Of Annointed Ones!
by Divergent inthursday, august 31. jehovah knows those who belong to him.—2 tim.
2:19.. in recent years, we have seen an increase in the number of those partaking at the memorial of christ’s death.
that trend contrasts with the decrease in the number of partakers that we saw for many decades.

As per their own reasoning, why cant any or all of the GB be mentally ill or mistakenly think that they are anointed

1 John 5:13-20 Jesus is the true God?
by NikL inone of the main things i am trying to wrap my head around after waking up to the nonsense of jw.org is the deity of christ.. jws go out of their way to ignore him, it seems to me.
they make him out to be an angel or something.
yet, if one simply reads the scriptures, you get an entirely different picture.. doing some bible reading this morning i accidentally (long story) read the latter part of 1 john 5 and it's good stuff.. after reading it in the niv i read it in nwt and it is still pretty amazing even in that abomination of a translation.. it says.... 13 i write you these things so that you may know that you have life everlasting, you who put your faith in the name of the son of god.

Jesus didn't write a single word in the Bible. Did he ? No historical evidence of his existence and his supposed miracles. Are there any ? Nothing that he promised happened so far. Then why to "Search for a black cat in a dark room where there is no cat at all"

Your View Of Death How Much Does It Effect The Way You Look At The World Around You?
by Brokeback Watchtower inlets face it the watchtower's indoctrinations effect the way we look at the world we see governments as tool of the devil.
we look at our relatives different, we will not speak to our own children if disfellowshipped.. a better world is what christians promise believers, or hell for those condemned by the deity.
kiss the ass of the deity and go to a better world, and don't forget to put something in the collection plate on sunday.. to face death with out the crutch of a future better world for beleivers, is better, as you can cherish the life you are living and be more in the present while facing what ever life throws at you.

Hurricane Harvey JW Victims - Keep trusting in Jehovah’s loving arm of support.
by Funchback innot a peep about all victims, not even a prayer for them.
only pray for jws.
and who or what is jehovah's loving arm of support?

EverApostate
So Jehovah doesn't prevent the mounting disaster, but offers his arm of support. True that only Zombies can swallow such reasoning.
