i’ve been hearing from several very reliable sources that there will be an exclusive elite gala entertainment event hosted by the watch tower organization, featuring specially chosen jehovah’s witnesses of outstanding talent as well as spiritual reputation, at the sony centre (formerly called the o’keefe centre) in toronto, ontario (canada) as a special “after hours” addition to the 2017 special international convention.. those chosen have to meet very strict criteria, including, not so much technical and popular talents, but, rather, their spiritual maturity which can be easily and practically related to by the audience (i.e., degree of conformity – you know what i mean!).

a notable and very well-known professional “super star” from some other country (i don’t know which one) who has achieved highly recognized and popular talent was surprisingly not chosen to participate in the extra entertainment program, whereas other performers with rather ho-hum musical abilities ended up being selected, ostensibly for their altruistic and “theocratic” qualities.

(something tells me that there is going to be some jealousy and indignant, hard feelings over this rather authoritarian, arbitrary selection process.

Genuinely would rather put my balls in a food blender than listen to that shit.

What is the biggest sexual scandal to hit the top of JW tree ?

by Chook in

elders ,co ,do ,branch overseers ,gb ,missionaries has "sinful" lust got the better of them..

Always bewildered me that the holly spirit appointed me who were often at the time of appointment wife beaters, child abusers or adulterers.

Jehovahs spirit is more interested in moving piles of sand for construction projects.

Priorities man.

Jehovah's Witnesses denial of what they are supposed to believe from Watchtower

by jambon1 in

one of the most frustrating things.

when you confront jw's about what they believe they will often deny it.

such as "if your child is disfellowshipped then you can't have contact with them ever again".

One of the most frustrating things.

When you confront JW's about what they believe they will often deny it. Such as "if your child is disfellowshipped then you can't have contact with them ever again". The reply you get will be a denial of that along the lines of "well there are circumstances where we can have contact". Yet, they've all seen the videos from last years conventions where a mother wasn't to pick up the phone up her long term disfellowshipped daughter.

Other denials come in the shape of the blood issue, god slaughtering everyone at Armageddon, factual cases of covering over paedophilia & the mistakes of the governing body.

But why?

Why can't they just own what they are? Why can't they take pride in what they're supposed to be, thus watering down what the commandments are from Watchtower?

It says it all to me. They're actually embarrassed by their own beliefs, so much so that most will deny or water them down.

Thoughts?

Do JWs Ever Do Anything Meaningful For Others?

i know they never gave a helping hand to anyone but their own in the past.

do jehovah's witnesses do anything useful for the community??

?.

Community responsibility and charity are a waste of time to them as Jehovah will sort it soon, imminently, etc, etc.

Worship of Men?

by HereIgo in

i remember when i was in as a teenager, some time around 2006, samuel herd of the governing body came to dedicate our newly built hall.

i remember bumping into him accidentally and a brother pulled me aside and half jokingly and half seriously telling me that i should be more careful around jehovah's anointed ones.

it was quite comical to say the least.

Saw some repugnant fawning over Daniel Sydlik at a convention here.

These days I find it incredible that anyone would fawn over the governing body members. Guys like Lett & Morris are clearly mentally ill, imbalanced weirdos.
