  Satan is coming for us. Destroy all the evidence! Saying, "Satan is coming after us" is the same as WT leaders saying they are right and all of today's governmental agencies are all wrong including the countless victims coming forward.

  This religion really needs to learn a hard lesson. It is clear that money is their primary motivator.

  The internet has become a logistical nightmare for this micromanaging and secretive religion, which has as its primary concern appearance over substance.

  The WT leaders are keenly aware that the “genie is out of the bottle” forever. Expect more spin and damage control from now on!

  Drop Off in Mentioning 1914

  by steve2 in

  2. bible

  videos from the summer jw conventions ("be courageous) show the "urgency" about the end racheted up several notches.

  paranoia rules supreme!.

  curiously, though, very few, if any, statements in the convention program about 1914 and the overlapping generations.

  Excellent comments and observations by everyone on this subject.
  

  How this lame religion can still have over 8 million members, I'll never understand it.

  in a new "must read" article, a former jw hlc committee chairman explains why blood components are the real issue, and the terrible price paid to learn this important lesson.. http://ajwrb.org/components-of-blood-are-the-issue.

  Many members here including myself were hoping that by now the entire blood doctrine would have become a personal conscience matter. Sadly, it appears that this will never happen.

  Why are they planning for years ahead when Armageddon is any day now? They cover and protect themselves by admitting to having a 5-year real estate forecast and a 5-year construction forecast. They also state that the treasurer’s office does a 5-year available cash forecast.

  Meanwhile they tell their followers if they worry about saving money for their old age, or investing, or wanting a higher education, it demonstrates an obvious lack of faith in the ability or power of God to provide and sustain us. It also shows that we have lost our sense of urgency as to the nearness of the end.

  This religion is truly rife with deceit, lies and harmful advice that have negatively affected innumerable kind and sincere individuals over many decades. This religion has to go!

  A&E - Cults and Extreme Belief - Jehovah's Witnesses

  The A&E program was very well done and accurate. It was done with respect without bashing anyone or maligning any particular person. This will give it a more general appeal especially active JWs that might watch it.

  I would imagine all of this is very unsettling for the leadership. They value their appearance and reputation so much.

  One thing from all of this is that it will warn non-JWs in the territory that this religion is not some innocuous group of people coming to your front door.

  Leah Remini to tackle JWs in new special

  by betterdaze in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  the star has a previous first-look production deal with the network to produce unscripted series following the success of her emmy-winning show “leah remini: scientology and the aftermath.” according to the hollywood reporter, remini will produce a special for the network during the break following season 3 of the acclaimed docuseries.. it notes that jehovah’s witnesses, while based on biblical teachings, have come under fire over the years for similar practices to the church remini left years ago.

  for example, practices of ousting or shunning members who have dissenting views, a blanket refusal to participate in politics and government as well as not celebrating christmas or birthdays are all things that the special will reportedly cover.

  additionally, the religion has predicted the literal end of the world several times, obviously to no avail.. .

  In recent episodes of JW broadcasting, the GB appears tired, drained and stressed out.

  It’s no wonder with all that is happening… ARC… Russia… UK… Canadian lawsuit… Netherlands… W5… unrelenting activism on YouTube etc., etc. They’re constantly under attack from all levels.

  I’m still waiting for that watershed event that will finally expose this religion’s harmful policies for all to see.

  i am shaking all over right now.

  i think it's worse that the bunker video.. i used to think there was no way that these people would actually "drink the cool aid" if you get my drift, but seeing this video i am now not sure it could never happen.. having a wife who i love dearly trapped in this cult is really freaking me out right now...

  While it is quite disturbing and very emotionally manipulative, it underscores that the WT leaders are having extreme difficulty in keeping members engaged and active anymore.

  Desperate times call for desperate measures.

  Scary Effectiveness of Assembly Videos

  well, i got to see the final day of this years regional convention.and i saw something that disturbs me.. the final, "summing up review" video.

  it disturbs me because it was so well done.

  (i wish i could remember the title of the song), to the strains of a solo vocalist singing in a fine "irish tenor", we see the actors from the previous videos of the last few days all assembling together in a clearing.
