do you guys think that the gb actually believes the garbage that they print?
how could they actually believe their new "overlapping generation" doctrine?
wouldn't they have access to anything ever printed and have knowledge of all the false prophecy?
"Are they the dumbf...s or were we?"
I don't think it is a case of either or Simon. I think it is a case of dumbf...s following other dumbf...s. After all at one time weren't they just like us? Dumbf...s following the orders of other dumbf...s. The difference is they just worked harder at being a dumbf and eventually they got to become the head dumbf...s.

I think it is all about power and ego wth them. A some point they lose touch with reality and decieve themselves into believing that they have all the answers and what they are doing is all important. Maintaining control is the most important thing to them. Freddie Franz said it himself. Unity was more important than truth.
i watch cops tv show(usa) from time to time.
i noticed that some cops intitated traffic stops of people that went to the well known drug houses and they take the buyers to jail because of possession of drugs, but i was wondering why they leave the well known drug houses alone?
.
"It boosts their 'arrest' stats, thus making the "war on drugs" appear to be successful, and feeds the prison industry (one of the fastest-growing in the US and Canada)."
The privatisation of prisons or "prisons for profit" will insure that the practice of arresting and imprisoning on questionable grounds will continue.
Ya gotta make a buck somehow.
48but if ever that evil slave should say in his heart, my master is delaying,49and should start to beat his fellow slaves and should eat and drink with the confirmed drunkards,50the master of that slave will come on a day that he does not expect and in an hour that he does not know,51and will punish him with the greatest severity and will assign him his part with the hypocrites.
there is where [his] weeping and the gnashing of [his] teeth will be.. who is the master of the "evil slave"?
jesus christ is not evil therefore it has to be satan.
Cults can be very egotistical. They don't distiguish between history, poetry, stories and parables in the Bible. To a cult it is all one big prophecy being fulfilled in them.
i was cleaning my bookshelf earlier this week and got rid of all the wts magazines.
as for the books i haven't decided yet.
what about you?.
No. But it's still around because my wife is still a JW. If she ever wake up an gets out I'll take great pleasure in burning the lot.
i did for a year.
i falsified reports, had fake rv's, told groups i was meeting up with other groups and went home just to show a presense.
i wasn't fading though, because of my situation i had to play like everything was fine.
No. I couldn't even go out in service once I started doubting. It was too painful to go around trying to get others to believe in things I wasn't sure about myself. Once I was sure it was a load of crap I made a hasty exit out of the cult.
tomorrow the 22nd i will be 85 years old .
