so it's not enough that i'm dealing with post traumatic stress/anxiety and panic attacks all related to my life as a jw (50 years baptized -- i stopped going a couple of months ago) at 3 a.m. i get an email from the other side of the world.
'you have to go to the convention.
bro sanderson says we must watch the news, things are happening.
...global attack on witnesses..."
These idiots don't need anyone to attack them.
THEY ARE CANNIBALLISTIC. THEY DEVOUR EACH OTHER.
The Living Dead!!!
Jealousy, Spying on each other and reporting to elders, critical of everything the other person does, doomsday intepretation for everything , lazy, unreliable workers,love to shun their own without bothering to find out whether the person deserves it, holier -than - thou attitude , obey blindly, never educated, the list goes on.

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... .
Lol darkspilver.
Yes.

There's a lot of information here that's vital; if compiled together disproving the Watctowers take on it and placing the blame on them solely, would go a long way in enlightening the dubs if Nothing else.
If all this can be printed onto a two or three page foldover and be handed over to the dubs as they go to the convention or when they exit, it would be a purposeful move by all of us on this forum
FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO PROTEST AT THE LOS ANGELES CONVENTION AT LONG BEACH,THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO BE MORE EFFECTIVE IN SPREADING THE TRUTH ABOUT THE BORG THAN STANDING OUTSIDE THE CONVENTION HALL WITH PLACARDS,POSTERS AND SHOUTING INTO MICROPHONES.
JUST MY SUGGESTION
i think the finished mystery book probably contains the stupidest beliefs ever recorded!
almost any prophecy publication but especially anything to do with revelation, is unbelievable!
.
All of them vie for the crazy crown! Take your pick! But the craziest ones are the unwritten ones. Here's one heard from a -window cleaning elder- "The resurrection of those found worthy will take place at conventions. Since all were baptized in water all will emerge from water!"
Beat that for a watchtarded prophesy! And this guy all but trumpets this from the Sunday public talk.. So deeply entrenched is his belief, that he once asked a CO if his thinking was correct. The CO looked at him incredulously and said it was a perceptive thought but not to get carried away by it!
what i'm saying is the white race is the only one that has a verity of eye and hair colors , so what gives?
is it that this race was influenced genetically by a group of pre humans that didn't mix with other races?
.
Why are all creationists escape artists? They can't make a rationale argument.Won't give you any facts to back up what they assert with such authority - and when challenged ..run. And yell "persecution !"
Take any JDub. Yulll see this played out time and again. And now the same trend with an ex. Can't for the world of me figure this out!!

Etude
I was a baptized JW for 7years although associated with them for twenty. While out on field service we'd begin at 10 break for coffee at about 11 knock on a few doors by 1200 and were done by 1. On a full day of service, begin at 10 break for coffee at 11, for lunch at 1 and fool around till 2 30 then go knock on a few not at homes till 3 30 and call it a day. This was on weekends only. I would go out on Saturdays only ; rarely Sundays too. On the cooksheet I would put down two hours for half a day and 3 for a full . At the end of the month I barely made 10hours .most times it was 8. Guess how much the elders had who worked with me? 60hrs! I shit yu not.60hrs. And just before year end I had a few elders work from 6 in the the morning till 2 the next morning. Yup witnessing in 7 11s and gas station and bus stations . They would have over 70hrs to make up by the end of the two days but it was made! All regular pioneers! Even a close friend of mine...an elder...did it on many occasions. That's how I got to know. I found this happening in 3 congregations ...yea I changed 3 in 7years....and figured this was the norm. Bullshit and bill shit .Way to kingdom kinsgship!
I had a female elderette tell me..."Hairtrigger why do yu cheat youself. By cheating yourself you are cheating Hobogod. You should count every minute you speak about the truth even on the phone as time. Thisbitch would chalk up over 120hours a month by grabbing All the bible studies in the cong. She went out from 9 till 1 yet had 120hrs every month.Wife of an elder . This guy wouldn't give water to a dying man in a desert! Come CO visit he'd be salivating while puckering his lips, waiting in line, to kiss the holy ass.

Almost all JDubs cook up the hours anyway so what's the big deal in signing up for 840 hrs. All Jdubs , in every congregation, should sign up. And post 1040 hrs. Then the GB can say prophesy is being fulfilled. End time HAS turned the corner. Preaching work's been speeded up just like Jesus said.
whether atheist, such as myself, agnostic or a strong believer in a god, i'd like to share something with you all about karma.
it relates back to my post about marcus aurelius and a quote often accredited to him on the best way to live.
i think this will benefit those who are just waking up from the jw cult and wondering, what's next?.
This sounds like the Jewish commandments. The Jews made that up and the Vedic pundits made this one up.
The lowest caste on the ladder had a hard time of it because of poverty ,untouhability , exploitation and violence against them . And Karma was used as the excuse to keep them servile and subservient to the upper three castes.
They were told that they suffered because of past misdeeds in their previous lives for which they had the misfortune to be born in the Sudhra caste. So going back to point one it had this Ryder attached.
Agreed that there are idealistic lessons to be learned from it. Just as in the commandments. But Karma was attached to Mokhsha...the relief from the cycle of birth and death. Punishment and reward!
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..
Dog and Pony show to ramp up fear and awe of the approaching end. And to imprint in the minds of Jdubs that indeed the persecusion is being ramped up by the world. "WE are being targeted...blahblah boohoo".
SOMEONE THERE IN WARWICK-maybe one of the seven or SOMEONE else- is a damn good herd psychologist. In the wake of the Russian collapse this will indeed rivit the belief that the end is near, compelling them to do more and give up more time,and, most of all, DONATE MORE. YUP some SOB has hit on the correct formula to get the money flowing again.
