The old folks already have the wills ready for the WTBTS.. who needs them anymore when the younger, longer lasting members are leaving and telling others what they find on sites like this.

Have not seen one myself, but plenty of the other ways of pinning a symbol to a person or child. The biggest statement of blind obedience I've seen in my life.

Get Out. Get Away. Free Yourself. This is a Dangerous Cult. Nobody can help you but yourself.
by Jehovanomics inyou can measure the degree of passive aggressive control the jw's have over you by the degree to which you feel guilty when you stand up for yourself.
it's a multi billion dollar real estate corporation.
it's all about the money.

I wish simple and powerful statements like these will make anyone review their beliefs. Worst things hit them and yet they shield themselves from looking outside the hole.
I remember some years ago, my brother-in-law, who still very much in, was in parking lot duty, during an assembly. Some higher up from bethel was going to give a talk that day. He drove in and parked on the handicap space but my brother in law clearly noticed he could not really park there. He followed the orgs advice on lovingly and respectuflly pointing out that this parking space was reserved for people with disabilities. Without any regards the man responded "You are not going to tell me what to do" and walked away to give his talk.
I asked him what he did. Did he report his behavior. HE said no, Jehovah will take care of it.

TROUBLED MAN EXPOSES ELDERS CULT MENTALITY IN DOVER UK
by raymond frantz introubled man exposes elders cult mentality in dover uk.
(watch the video till the end).
breaking in to kingdom halls and disturbing peaceful meetings is hardly the way to go when it comes to positive activism .nevertheless these incidents seem to become more frequent recently as the watchtower vehemently refuses to engage in a meaningful way with the problems of policy and doctrine that seem to trouble many jehovahs witnesses .that, coupled with the ever extending ex- jehovahs witnesses community and their harsh disfellowshiping practises is creating a new era where disturbances of that short will only become more frequent.

Defeinitely this does nothing to help the cause, however, I would point out to the brother (on that video) who wanted to come up and fight with this guy and then his wife tries to stop him and he very disrespectuflly pushes her away. If anything, that should be highlighted.

I think others have explained it for me. But some people will never understand. I hope this never happens to you. May the WTBTS burn on the ashes of its own policies.

does the wt always carefully phrase sentences so as to never take blame?
by sowhatnow inim recalling a time when i sat and circled words in a watchtower article, indicating strongly the fact that it is in fact the writters opinion.. however just the suggestion in the sentence these words are ignored.. for example.
it is our understanding.
we believe this to be the case.

"Our members are free to leave if they so desire" (omitting that they will not be able to take their families with them)
The funny thing is that they continue to claim Jehovah is not a legalistic or dogmatic God. That people are free to choose to worship him or not. Consider the following paragraph where they use "weasel words" to justify their mistakes. Is there a bigger exampe of blame put on the holy spirit?. WT 2002 Dec 1, page 17, par 17-18. Bolds mine
The Ethiopian eunuch was a convert to Judaism. He was a sincere believer in God, and he studied the Scriptures. Traveling in his chariot, he was reading the text of Isaiah when Philip ran alongside him and asked: “Do you actually know what you are reading?” How did the eunuch answer? “‘Really, how could I ever do so, unless someone guided me?’ And he entreated Philip to get on and sit down with him.” Then Philip, directed by holy spirit, helped the eunuch to understand the prophecy of Isaiah. (Acts 8:27-35) What does this illustrate? That our private reading of the Bible is not enough. Jehovah, by his spirit, uses the faithful and discreet slave class to help us to understand his Word at the right time. How is this done?—Matthew 24:45-47; Luke 12:42.
18 Although the slave class is defined as “faithful and discreet,” Jesus did not say that it would be infallible. This group of faithful anointed brothers still consists of imperfect Christians. Even with the best of intentions, they can be mistaken, as such men sometimes were in the first century. (Acts 10:9-15; Galatians 2:8, 11-14) However, their motive is pure, and Jehovah is using them to supply us with Bible study aids to build up our faith in God’s Word and promises. The basic provision for personal study that the slave has given us is the New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures. It is now available, in whole or in part, in 42 languages, and 114 million copies in several editions have been printed. How can we use it effectively in our personal study?—2 Timothy 3:14-17.
