I do not think they will change anything that reduces the total time spent on the JW activities, thats part of keeping control, just keep everybody busy so they have no time to think about anything or research anything. The house to house work stays, even-though it makes no sense.

What other Shenanigans can we expect to see in the next 2 years?
by John Aquila inits been a little over 2 years since i left the watchtower.
in that time the magazines have been cut, the birth of jwtv, jw-org.
carts for preaching, removed district overseers, cut assemblies, demand all the money from the congregations, stop construction and layoff bethelites, change the format of the tmschool .

Super JW Cart

a strange urge is building in my brain... each time i see a jw literature cart on the street it builds.
it is becoming a stronger and stronger thought in my mind.

Go up to cart, have a nice chat with the brothers, then offer to buy them a coffee. Go get the coffee and put in some very strong laxative. Then wait and watch them run with the cart. -

knock knock
by Sabin inif jw`s come knocking at your door, do you open it & engage in conversation, tell them to sod off, or just not answer the door?.
my husband`s has asked me not to answer the door to them if he isn't here?
he hate`s the fact that they make a point of calling when they know he will be at work.

What I have decided to do, is just ask them to wait, and wait, and wait, and wait ......, but never actually get back to them, leave the door ajar, to keep them in expectation of my return, keeps them from pestering others for a short while.
After all this organization wasted a lot of my time.

Does anybody know if the WTS, invests in the 2 companys of Lockheed Martin & Grumman Northrop, which are 2 of the biggest weapons suppliers?
by Dunedain ini read in another thread, where it said that the wts, has investments from stocks, with the companys of lockheed martin and grumman northrop.
these are some of the biggest weapons suppliers to the us,uk, and israel.
i would think it would be very hypocritical for a christian organisation, that claims to be nuetral, and to "learn war no more", to invest money in companys that produce weapons, that are used in wars.. is this true, though?

Candace Conti
by Pubsinger inso we know that wt settled out of court for an undisclosed sum and that presumably there was a 'gagging order' attached to the settlement.. not having really thought about what a 'confidentiality clause' meant before, i assumed in the past that it meant that you weren't allowed to disclose the amount of the settlement or any details about it.
but from the total and absolute silence once the settlement was made, i can only assume that it is a total gagging order.. how can the courts allow such a restriction to be put on a victim?
protecting the abusers and allowing the institution to cover up the lengths they go to to avoid admitting their guilt?

To be honest I am very thankful to Candace, this case made me sit back and think, "Wo, whats going on here". This was one of the factors that made me wake up.
I hope she has peace now in her life now.

For those of you who is contemplating leaving the Borg, consider...
by James Mixon ini know it's not easy for you to walk it's a big decision, family and etc.. if you are afraid consider this.
i have been here for a few years and i can count on one hand from posters who made the statement, i can't take it anymore, i'm going back.. what is it that members here have given up their family and friends to be free.
is it so we can have sinful fun, we are our own person and no one will tell us what to do?.

You end up hearing the absurdity of that 'stuff' that was once upon a time your life and future compass!
That is the way I feel now, how absurd it was, what I believed, and true it is embarrassing having to admit you once believed it!

Last Saturday was a beutifull day in this part of Germany, so I spent the day in Cologne. I saw some JWs doing their Trolley Service. I thought about baiting them a little, but then I did not, I was having a great day and did not want to spoil my day. But GodZoo I find it great that you did what you did.
