My development with the opposite sex was greatly stunted. Then I decided to do what the skilled brothers were doing. Date girls in different cities. Then you can visit them and nobody knows your business. Also I discovered sexting. Now I've developed more fully. The WT advice works against young brothers. They don't learn how to talk to girls abd what really turns women on. Women don't get wet from hearing that you're a nice MS with spiritual goals. Many brothers (myself included) get frustrated because sisters don't seem attracted to"spiritual men." There are lots of bitter angry emasculated young JW brothers. I was once one. Then I discovered how to enjoy women. There are many sisters just waiting for someone to come and unlock their wild fun side. Life is much better and I've avoided trouble for the most part.

Problems of Dating the Watchtower Way
by enigma1863 ini wanted to know what problems you have learned about dating in the "truth" acording to there policy.

May the undeserved kindness of The Lord Jesus Christ be with you!
by kneehighmiah innearly every letter written in the new testament concludes with a variation of that phrase.
since the gb is supposed to imitate the apostles why don't they conclude their letters by wishing the grace of jesus be upon us?
i think nearly every of the books written by peter paul and john concludes in this manner.

I bet if I wished the undeserved kindness of our lord Jesus upon the congregation during a prayer I would be disfellowshipped before I could even walk off the stage.

Any New Light(TM) for 2014?
by punkofnice ini know there has been some real nauseating rubbish in the publications recently.
the governing body(r) are god it would seem.. each year the wbt$ trots out some real hilarious nonsense to make the drones feel as if they have special knowledge.
like the 'toes are not significant(tm)' from a couple of years ago.. ....and......my all time fave 'overlapping generations(tm)'.

i expect the 144,000 will be made symbolic soon. The new FDS teaching was the setup man for making the 144,000 symbolic. now even if every witness began to partake the GB still has the ultimate trump card as the FDS. Many witnesses believe everyone should partake, and they cant really defend their teaching scripturally.

On a Scale of 1 to 10---How Devoted Were You To Being One of Jehovah's Witnesses?
by minimus inas i grew up in the religion, i was a 10. i wanted to be made a "servant" because that was instilled in me from infancy.
i diligently studied ever piece of watchtower literature and defended my religion intensely.. when i got into my 30's, i started to see little cracks in the watchtower's surface but decided to "wait on jehovah".
then i started to research a little more critically and realized i couldn't defend the prophecies, the treatment of people and the hypocrisy that was becoming more obvious, that especially an elder can see.. it was a gradual thing---from a 10 to a zero!.

I was an 8 at my peak. Even though I had priveleges I secretly did whatever I wanted. Then after having my life constantly micromanaged as an MS and seeing that "the truth" actually caused the most stress and that people were super judgemental I decided to do research. Now I'm a 0, even though I'm still MS (just to keep the peace). I do whatever I can to help those still in, and help them to stop chasing the dangling guilt carrot and live happier lives.

BOE Letter: New Adjustments

Expect regional conventions to be huge. Just like this year. Rent fewer venues. Cram more brothers into venues. Hold less conventions. Spend less cash. I think they were not breaking even at some smaller venues. I used to attend at a venue locally. Now we are to travel 3 hours. This makes the tract campaign of invitations even more useless.

Is there going to be a 2014 district convention?
by booker-t ini have heard rumors for over a year now that the wt is not going to have a 2014 dc.
i know they are having a circuit assembly and special day talk assembly but what about their yearly dc.
has anybody heard anything?.

The OP is partly correct. They are getting rid of District conventions in 2015. See the post on the new regional conventions. This will save the branch money.

Child Abuse or Apostasy...which is worse?
by kneehighmiah ini believe that apostasy is the ultimate jw sin.
only apostates are mentally diseased.
it's hilarious how a child predator or psychopath has never been called mentally diseased.

I believe that Apostasy is the ultimate JW sin. Only apostates are mentally diseased. It's hilarious how a child predator or psychopath has never been called mentally diseased. Child molseters cannot be disfellowshipped over the testimony of one witness, but elders will use entrapment to convict "apostates." I never knew that 1914 was an essential Christian doctrine. How ludicrous.

New May WT continuing to beat persecution/organization drum

The WT has quietly divorced any Biblical events of significance from this 1914 date. Most people are too dumb to notice. I haven't seen any recent references to Jesus' presence beginning in this year in a long while. Please let me know if there has been info relating 1914 to Christs presence recently published.

Check out the new May WT. The article "Are You Moving Ahead With Jehovah's Organization?" is nauseating.
http://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/w20140515/moving-ahead-jehovahs-organization/
List of awful quotes from this article (in no particular order):
1. " God wants us to maintain good spiritual health by sticking to him and supporting his organization in its various activities."
2. " Brother Pryce Hughes, who resolutely stuck to God and kept in step with His organization, once wrote: “I am so thankful that I have lived in the knowledge of Jehovah’s purposes from those early days just prior to 1914 . . . If one thing has been most important to me, it has been the matter of keeping close to Jehovah’s visible organization. My early experience taught me how unsound it is to rely on human reasoning. Once my mind had been resolved on that point, I determined to stay by the faithful organization. How else can one get Jehovah’s favor and blessing?”
3. " We too need to study diligently and be open-minded when there are adjustments in the understanding of God’s Word or in our preaching work."
4. " All who remain loyal to Jehovah and his organization will have his continued blessing."
5. " The earthly part of Jehovah’s organization is moving ahead in various ways. For instance, our understanding of Bible truth is constantly becoming clearer."
6. " We do not boast in numbers, for it is ‘God who keeps making things grow.’ ( 1 Cor. 3:5-7 ) Nevertheless, it is evident that the great crowd is growing and becoming greater with each passing year... There has been remarkable growth in the number of God’s servants because Jehovah himself is backing his Witnesses."
7. " This unparalleled tribulation will start when Jehovah brings destruction on “Babylon the Great,” the world empire of false religion, by using the political powers." (Apparently the UN teaching is dead as so many here have already mentioned.)
