This is embarrassing on both sides. this guy needs to get a life. However I'm also happy to see the wannabe cop elders get shut down. They musr be frustrated to see that they have no real authority. They can only intimidate those in their congregation. I know a few elders like the black guy and the old fart. neither are spiritial men, but are usually self righteous jerks who revel in having power over others and giving orders. They have such fragile egos that they couldn't just ignore some loser with a camera and a ridiculous looking hat.

As I've been saying it's being promoted to cover up the fact that Jesus's invisible presence or second coming is a future event. though Russell and Rutherford taught Jesus came in 1914 we are rebranding it as the birth of the kingdom, which happens to have as much real significance as a truckload of nothing. sometime soon we will be informed that Jesus did not have an invisible presence in 1914. But JWs won't care that we've been teaching falsehood for 80 yearS or so. They will be too busy spreading the new teaching of Jesus rule beginning in 1914.

Too much control over personal choices the bible doesn't discuss like career and college
Sprituality determined by how devoted you are to the organization, time spent is service, meeting attendance
social isolation, no outside friends allowed
M ost importantly shunning if you don't agree with every word breathed by the governing body or if you're not a fully committed JW. You cannot leave with dignity, even if you just happened to be born into it.

The most interesting thing to me is the money figures that show the WT suffering a loss of nearly 1 million pounds.

A few thoughts on the District, um, Regional... sigh....
by Apognophos ini don't even know what the bloody event is called anymore.
i think it's still a district convention until it goes to two days, isn't it?
my convention program leaflet just says "convention of jehovah's witnesses", seemingly intentionally avoiding the change in wording.

I think I made a post months ago asking if the GB is just trolling us. Their teachings are getting weirder. Plus some statements in the magazines are almost admissions that they are frauds. Brother losch life story was blatant. Plus them making fun of Harold camping. each day I become more certain they're trolling us.

Expect more Crazy as JW.ORG trims the fat and fills the coffers.
by donuthole inwhen rutherford assumed the presidency of the watchtower society he instituted series of sweeping changes to the teachings and practices of the bible students.
some of these changes were at complete odds with what had been taught previously.
a key example was the elevation of the watchtower society as "god's visible organization on earth".

Here's a shot from the Detroit convention jumbotron. The speakers were all shown on the jumbotron/scoreboard so everyone could see them. On both sides JW.org was plastered.

This is upsetting. Of course the branch will do nothing to compensate the families. one woman and 4 children. this is the result of blind obedience. Crossing the river at flood stage? It's too dangerous to even search for the bodies. They never stood a chance.

Maybe that's the reason for the cash and property grab. They are about to do a massive rebranding that will cost them tons of followers short term, with the hope that they can have long term growth. New bible, last memorial nonsense, shorter conventions, no more DO, less meetings, rapture for the 144k, FDS teaching revision, 16 page wt and awakes. All in a 2 year period. What's next? Hopefully something that makes my family and friends leave.
