Hey El Kato,
That is pretty much what we need. I would, however, think that a better format would make it more attractive.
i have been pondering about this for a while.
i wrote to cedars at some point an offered to help translate his articles into spanish but the answer was that they had all of their efforts committed.
i wrote to paul grundy and never got an answer.

Well, everyone can help by spreading the word. We can give you a prepared spanish paragraph to share. LOL
@John Aquila... you spelled like it sounds and as long as people can relate, it would have the desired effect.

it seems most of the us growth is in spanish-speaking territory, and of course, there is growth in the nations where spanish is the predominant language.
most sites oriented around ttatt, are english-speaking.
there seems then to be a great need for translators...for instance, imagine if there was a spanish version of www.jwfacts.com.. unfortunately, i dont speak this language.

I have been pondering about this for a while. I wrote to Cedars at some point an offered to help translate his articles into Spanish but the answer was that they had all of their efforts committed. I wrote to Paul Grundy and never got an answer. I am not mad or anything. I understand they are busy and so am I. However, I've been lurking more and more into Spanish language forums and facebook pages. I am noticing a similar trend as the one I notice in my circuit. The Spanish crowd is generally unaware, not just of TTATT, but of many of the other seemingly more trivial things that go on in the JW world. I believe so is happening to a degree much larger than you would imagine, with people left in the blind because of their lack of access to information resources.
Just to give an example, last night in our book study the question in the paragraph was... who is the faithful and discrete slave?
Sister A- Just like the book mentions, a small group of anointed brothers around the world.
Elder A- Thank you sister, very good answer
Sister B- We learned from the publications that the faithful slave as Jesus predicted, is all of the anointed brothers from around the world.
Elder A- Thank you very much sister for your answer... now movin....(elder A gets interrupted by elder B)
Elder B- Now there is an interesting tidbit to be added here, brothers. This book was released several years ago and that is why it says the FD&S is all of the anointed brothers. We know, however, as it was published in 2013, that the FD&S is only the members of the GB of JWs. Not all of the anointed.
Elder A- Thank you Elder B for that clarification.
So as you can see, elder A was going to move on with confirming the old teaching. There are instances in which even the elders are either clueless or so out of focus that they answer "good" to anything the R&F says.
I have been thinking for a while about starting my own blog. I am just afraid that other life commitments would not allow me to give it the attention it deserves. I am about to start working with a therapist too and I am wondering what he would think about me putting an effort into activism. So I believe I am going to wait just a little longer to see what he recommends.
Would love to hear your thoughts. Constructive criticism is welcome and appreciated. Haters are not.
essex chronicle october 1st as quoted.
link below.. jehovah's witnesses have quashed rumours that the bid to bring their headquarters to chelmsford could collapse due to financial turmoil.. the international bible students' association (ibsa), the organisation which circulates the christian group's literature, said on monday that the construction in temple farm in west hanningfield will continue.. an anonymous source contacted the chronicle on friday claiming a woman in the ibsa's construction department confirmed the project would terminate.. the man, a current jehovah's witness member, said: "something major is going on with the organisation financially.".
the ibsa did however confirm it was pulling the plug on other construction projects worldwide.. stephen morris, ibsa's personnel support manager at its branch relocation department, said: "in order to make best use of contributed funds, some construction projects worldwide will be delayed or cancelled.. "however, we are pleased to confirm that the temple farm project will continue.
i'm not jw, so i see this all standing up and very clear from an outsider perspective (i am still seeking my path).
i joined the blog a few weeks ago.
i dated a divorced jw (jw from birth) for a couple of years recently.
Mind control is the answer as others have pointed. There are many JWs out there who don't really understand what they believe in and those are even harder to show the truth. I am noticing for example, that the hispanic JWs are more indoctrinated than the English ones. Just last night in our book study the question was asked "Who is the FD&S?". Two sisters answered "all of the anointed" and the elder conducting the study commended them for their good answer and never corrected them. Finally one of the other elders probably could not stand this inaccuracy and raised his hand to clarify that since 2013 the FD&S is the GB.
The more dramatic the attack, the more they will attach to their belief and loyalty. Is how mind control works and that is why is such a powerful tool. The mass exodus could be a great idea but it could get out of hand if we don't take the right approach.
There is also a bunch of those who faded for other reasons but they have no idea about TTATT. There is quite a few in my family. They don't attend meeting, they celebrate Christmas and birthdays and all of that. Yet, they keep posting the daily text to facebook and refuse to take a surgery because of the risk of a blood transfusion.
http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/491270004/mass-disassociation-pact?size=10&page=15.
the topic above got me thinking.
everyone here can't send a disassociation letter due to family or other reasons.
In a personal note, I think this is a good idea but it may be getting out of hand. Wether we like it or not, from the minute that we have no other recourse but be anonymous, we are playing by their rules. An excess of such would simply compel them to label us as cowards and confirm their fears.
In my case even an anonymous letter could rat me out. I've observing more and more into Spanish forums and there is such blind obedience and I realize the trend is pretty much everywhere in the Spanish circuits. If a letter of DA came to my hall, even anonymously, I could easily be pinned to me. I am pretty much the only active publisher that has quit FS for good and has denied participating in the MS any further.
Just my honest opinion.
