How Long Before They Introduce Tithing?

by pale.emperor in

when i was a full-on believing jw i had an obsessive fascination with mormonism.

i read, studied and watched their propaganda with strange interest as well as their apostate mormon books.

i have to say, they have a good scam going claiming that "the lord reintroduced tithing" in the modern age.

Lol, he thinks he's making points to lurkers. No wonder he's in a cult, he's delusional as can be, not to mention a coward incapable of honest discussion on anything. Ducker avoids any questions he can and any lurker could see through your garbage. You've been doing it for years under different names. Out of curiosity, how many lurkers have you saved over that time?

When will you just fuck off? Your arguments are so stupid.

Other religions help people with their programs. I know this is a novel concept to someone so captive to their cult, but just as a wild and crazy idea, JWs could actually do good in their communities with programs to help those in need. I know that's beyond you. If you do good to only those called a brother, of what benefit is it?

Add to that the number of dubs on the government dole and that struggle week to week to make ends meet that receive zero help from the congregation. I personally knew of those instances.

I know this is yet another concept your feeble mind can't grasp, but just because you help someone doesn't mean that they're indebted to you. Of course, as someone whose mind is clearly controlled by the cult, you couldn't fathom that help A.) could be offered to people outside of your own cult and B.) could be offered without the concept of control.

Don't you get tired of getting punked on here? Do you have any self-worth?

Now kindly fuck off, the adults here were having a conversation. You can use me being mean to you as a reason to tuck your tail, avoid my earlier questions that show even your username to be untruthful, and hide out again and come back later, as you do. It's okay buddy.

Good point Incognito, they do pass around slips and pressure people to make promises as to future donations and then to pay what they vow. They already have congregations on that everlasting mortgage plan.

I don't see them ever going to a straight tithe model of a certain percentage, but they'll just do what they do and be underhanded in the process the whole way. When you have 8,000,000 brain dead followers that you've manipulated into following your direction, you can get what you want.

At least we agreed on one thing Ducker, the JWs don't actually help anyone, it's just not what they do.

So let me ask you while I've got you, how long have you been out now, since you seem interested in the length of time people have been out?

What woke you up?

Care to share some of your doubts with us?

So talking of things being "alleged" (though I'm not sure where any here alleged such but you like to make things up so do you), be sure to be honest and open.

Hey, at least he admitted being wrong. The great 8 up in New York could learn something from him. Nice.

Come on Sanchy, give the guy a break. He's just doing the same thing the 8 gods he worships do in using words like "it stands to reason", "evidently", "likely", when spinning their latest tall tale. I'm not really sure why he tries, though he did tell me he's here to "hold us accountable", lmao.

Oh, I know the answer Sanchy, I just wanted to hear Ducker's amusing response.

What prevents JWs from getting that same federal money and actually helping people?

Does Disfellowshipping only prohibit spiritual contact with a DF family member or friend?

by Isambard Crater in

all through my life, now in my 40's, i've seen df people get completely shunned by family and friends, but an ex elder showed me the stfog book that says it's just spiritual contact that stops.

so what's the crack?

i'm mega confused, as i want to go p.o.m.o or ideally da but don't want to loose family..

They know they shun totally. They know it looks bad. They lie. Call it "theocraptic warfare", they lie.

This is a great example of the way Watchtower Corporation muddied the waters and weasels around things. It's like how a person is automatically disassociated for doing certain things instead of being disfellowshipped because to DF them for those actions (taking blood, military service) would look bad on them. It's all about keeping up appearances with them and the culture they create through talks and such is often just different enough from the written word because they know what to put in writing and what to then tell you in person.

These things show that they are manipulative and not to be trusted.

What would you do or say?

by Butyoucanneverleave in

a brother who is not baptized ( so there's still hope for him ) had a sister recently run into him at a store.

show wanted to know if he's going to the kingdom hall.

she asked him to write a letter for her to give to his mother ( who's deceased) in the paradise explaining why he didn't make it.

dubstepped

I'd write two letters for her. F U
