wanted - young, healthy, unmarried brothers that do not look at pornography.
of course they should not masturbate too, though we do not mention this requirement specifically.
and they should be honest about it.
2015 Annual Meeting
Samuel Herd's announcement about finances and Bethel reductions. Now we have in the May 2019 broadcasting an appeal to the worldwide brotherhood to consider a full-time career at Bethel. Seriously, which is it we must conserve and reduce personnel to save money or not? It’s like the old joke.
“How can you tell when the GB is lying?”
“Their lips are moving.”
hilarious,enjoy.found on reddit.
this should set the mood for the weekend !.
zing.
Brilliant well done.
i never post on here.
i am sanchy's wife.
i posted my coming out story about 3 yrs ago.
Great WT references, thanks for the research corruptgirl. I think “Top Shelf Tight Pants” will survive
this and be more prudent next time. It will soon become a story from the
distant past.
i was doing some reminiscing and remember the days back in the late 80s and early 90s where i truly could say the meetings were so encouraging and that i felt the holy spirit present and operating on all of us.
today when i attend, there is nothing of the sort.
is it because jehovah has withheld it?
The Holy Spirit was neither active nor inactive in the congregation. The Holy Spirit has never guided a group of imperfect men to appoint anyone. The Holy Spirit never had a direct connection or influence on any JW doctrine or interpretation ever printed. The idea of the Holy Spirit being present in a JW congregation was just another narcissistic insular view from the WTS leadership to make its members feel special, important and that they were in an elite and only true religion. Successes and failures come and go in any group whether they are secular or religious.
Once we wake-up, we quickly discover this was just another “man made”
religion from DAY ONE. It was all a patchwork of senseless and even
life-threatening doctrines (vaccines, transplants, blood). When we fact check
this man made religion, then all that we heard and felt in the past no longer
has any substance or reality.
i was howling watching cedars latest video of tm111 buying a dozen bottles of scotch ((maccallans scotch).
you can't write this stuff.
right, i'm now off to buy a bottle of maccallans 😂..
LongHairGal said… “I feel that IF the JW religion were not excessively intrusive and high controlling about the lives of their followers - and IF they did not have crazy policies against higher education - and IF they did not insist their followers pursue poverty and give money to the religion ad nauseam (even children’s ice cream money) and not enjoy life and spend every spare moment they are awake preaching, etc... then MAYBE it is nobody’s damn business if this high profile man spends a fortune in a liquor store. But, that’s not the case.”
Many posters on this video and subject have made similar observations and comments. The reason for the backlash and vitriol reaction towards Tony Morris is a simple as LongHairGal stated. This religion micromanages to the extreme, and hasn’t made one predication or speculation that has ever come true thus far. While GB Morris indeed DID NOT do anything unscriptural and buying alcohol is up to each individual, his high ranking status as a demigod to 8 million followers places him in a position that will be readily scrutinized and evaluated by observers.
He himself saw the need to not stumble others or create gossip so he travelled out of state on a Sunday morning. I would guess this was NOT his FIRST booze run and he had been successful on numerous occasions before. This time though things would turn out differently. Again I say that he did nothing wrong and in my opinion he used his own money even if it was obtained through “green handshakes.” However, this religion is relentless on not giving even the mere “appearance” of aberrant or uncharacteristic behavior. It tells members that while what you WANT to do might be proper & allowed, if “our actions” could possibly stumble or weaken another’s faith, maybe, we should think of our fellow brothers & sisters first.
The hostile response is happening because Tony Morris is a condescending,
arrogant, pompous, demeaning individual. He spews venom in his talks and is one
of the LEAST Christlike men, I’ve ever listened to or observed. He’s the first
to criticize and obviously has personal pet peeves about clothing, higher
education etc. His obnoxious unappealing personality is the basis for all the
comments here. As they say, “What goes around comes around.”
we all know the society would love to get rid of all the problems caused by clinging to 1914 and all they claimed it meant for the last 100+ years.. it looks like they are laying the groundwork for easing away from the whole concept of 1914. this would also let them do away with the ridiculous "overlapping generation" bullcrap.
what a diaper load that has been.... anyway, the following is from their super secret marching orders for april, 2019. draw your own conclusions.... "3.
“100 years of faithfulness”: the coordinator of the body of elders, or another elder, should be invited to read the following special announcement.
I'll go along with many here that it's an April fools joke.
today my wife and i went to college.
although not allowed to go to college as jws we got to lead a class today and it was really special to be able to do that.
the class was an honors class on social media and psychology and i created a presentation around the propaganda and manipulation used against us as jws.
Thanks for sharing that dubstepped. Was interesting to hear the questions from the students. You both handled yourselves very well. The discussion & explanation was easy to follow and thorough. Now that I’m out many years, it really sounds absurd to listen to someone explain our teachings and doctrines in detail like you did. I sit here and wonder what in blazes were we thinking and how nonsensical so much of our theology and expectations are.
Thanks to you both and keep
up the good work.
watctower has posted a $40,000,000 bond following montana's upholding of the nunez v watchtower verdict of 2018. punitive damages have been upheld, and wt has purchased the bond from travelers insurance (35m+ interest)-montana sc will rule later this year on the appeal.. .
Thank
you Solzhenitsyn. If your comment, “Of course the money he was talking about
flowed out of a $40-50 billion USD worldwide asset pool” is accurate, I’m
afraid this micromanaging, life damaging religion will be around longer than
many of us here had hoped for.
new dubtown episode.
poor melch cant take part in anything in high school.

same time.
