  2017 Convention Video To Be Shown Regarding The 1975 Failure

  no mention whatsoever that it was watchtower themselves that strongly hinted towards this date.

  instead they blame those who "put their trust in a date, not jehovah".. let's recap... .

  The WTBTS is deceitful regarding its previous practices and dogma.

  Intelligent JWs are onto their crap and just continue to live their lives regardless. Take for example their silliness that JWs should arrive at hotels they are staying at fo the assembly in formal JW attire r that afterwards when going to dinner staying in JWish garb and clip of the Assembly as a walking billboard. The vast majority of us ignore that dogmatic bullshit. 💩

  There is an increasingly large number of us inside that can easily now identify their 'man-made' ideas elevated to 'Divine status'.🤔

  THEIR GIG IS UP!!!😠

  In the Spanish cong, we are big on bridal showers, weddings, wedding anniversaries, baby showers, graduations, a couple of times a year kids parties, and we do quite a bit of gatherings at our homes 'just because'.

  We have no shortage of partying at all in the Spanish side.😎

  Major changes to convention security beginning in 2017

  by Edison Trent in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  short info on interesting changes to the major conventions this year: there will be a new security concept that will be implemented at all regional conventions in 2017.. similar to other major events (e.g.

  festivals, concerts), there will be admittance controls in stadiums.. - at each entrance, there will be a massive presence of attendants that look at each visitor.. - there will be pocket checks at the entrance.. - suspicious persons are no longer left on the convention grounds.. - suppliers to the stadium will be intensively inspected by attendants.. - there will be a special sign for attendants that must enter the stadium before 7.30 am.

  all others (even all attendants) can only enter after 7.30 am..

  JWs keep their own alternative reality. Many are quite happy, law abiding people.

  Leave them alone as it could always be worse. If you don't believe it, check out the series 'Believer' with Reza Aslan on CNN (YouTube it).

  After checking out said series, no complaints having JW as a religion. Nope!

  The Ultimate Conversion

  by Etude in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  one thing that surprised me shortly after joining this site was the number of individuals who, after experiencing the deception of being a jw and the hypocrisy of the “truth”, switched to being catholic or “born-again” evangelists.

  it seemed to me like jumping from the hot pan into the fire.. i don’t want to piss anyone off for his or her choices.

  i feel everyone is free to believe what they may.

  Then there is also the vast group that decided to throw out the baby with the diry bath water.

  You know, the ones that left the Org 'cause it was so bad, so wrong, so crazy, and now their lives are soooo crappy! They would've done so much better following the JW life.

  There is this cat in a suburb of Tampa, FL, that is currently homeless and heavily drug/alcohol addicted. He was doing so well inside, but decided to start hanging out with a childhood buddy that just happened to use drugs recreationally and gave him a taste of it.

  Dude lost his marriage, got kicked out of the Org, is a total mess.

  There are so many like him too. For some, remaining a JW helps them to have a better life.

  Want to read a surprising comment/complaint posted on my website about JW's encouraged not to have kids. Who would have thought!

  here's the short article found in the "did you know?

  " series found on watchtower documents, and, underneath it, is the unusual comment:.

  They say a lot of stuff, then the normal, reasonable JW person picks and chooses carefully according to the life they want for themselves.

  As much as the WTBTS opposes higher education, all in our family and many others in the cong are all either attending college or making arrangements to attend once they graduate high school.

  As much as they rant on not attending prom, our graduates in my family are attending.

  Times are changing. The WTBTS is not as relevant, not many 'orthodox' JWs inside anymore. People are tired of nonsense.

  The book we study currently is pretty crazy: The Kingdom is ruling, but... invisibly.

  That is some pretty crazy shit! 🤔
