Actually a generation is about 25-30 years by definition. So it was the 3rd to 4th Governing Body generation to see the Cubs win it all. I'm totally happy for Cubs fans and the Cubs ! But I don't think the GB gives a damn unless the Cubs owners donated their winnings to WT " kingdom interests " . Peace out, Mr. Flipper

by OneGenTwoGroups infor the first time in 108 years, the chicago cubs won the mlb 2016 world series, which is not news to too many of us.
but the volunteers at warwick bethel have an interesting opportunity today.

The circle or wheel of life is now complete ! The sacred tree lives . Congratulations JRK and On The Way Out on the Cubs winning the championship ! Cherish it, relish in it . Really happy for you guys and all you Cubs fans back east. You deserve it.
Makes me feel a little better about my Giants losing to the team who ended up becoming World Champions. Puts things in a little better complexion now. Softens the blow so to speak for me as a Giants fan
P.S. If we ( Giants ) had lost to the Dodgers- now THAT would have burned me up all winter. But this is bearable. Congrats ! Peace out, Mr. Flipper

Major Doctrinal Changes Must Be On The Way
by notsurewheretogo inthe statement in the article "who is leading gods people today?
" in the feb 17th study edition of the wt is very interesting.. it states: ""the g.b.
is neither inspired nor infallible" ..we can err .in doctrinal matters....".

" The GB is neither inspired nor infallible " . It might also be a " saving face " move or statement covering the GB's ass if any of them got indicted on criminal charges concerning child abuse issues, no blood transfusion issues, or financial finagling issues that gets them breaking the law. You know- a way of preparing the " flock " that they are just imperfect men doing their " best " in this wicked world.
The GB are so constipated in whatever BS they put out there- they are about to explode

I think they DEFINITELY deserve it. If my S.F. Giants won 3 World Series in the last 7 years- your Cubs DEFINITELY deserve to win their 1st World series since 1908. Even in spite of the Cubs knocking S.F. out of the playoffs. I want my friends team to win !
I know, I know Cleveland fans you guys haven't won one since 1948 - your time will come too ( perhaps sooner than we think ) - but hey - we weren't even in the imaginary " last days of this system of things " in 1908 ! Jesus wasn't even " ruling in heaven " in an imaginary, fictitious way ! There have been about 3 to 4 overlapping generations of 30 years each since the Cubs last won a World Series. If ANYTHING fulfills Bible prophecy - it HAS to be the Chicago Cubs finally winning a World series ! Then I might truly believe we are near the end - or not. ( Just a joke ) Peace out, Mr. Flipper

Go Cubs ! They need to bring out a goat onto the field before tonight's game and sacrifice it . A dead goat of course. Burn the mother-f-er ' . Roast that baby and serve it to the Cubs players before they play. At this point it might really help.
Cubs need to start scoring some of these runners they put on base. Damned Cleveland pitching is tough stuff man. They still have a shot. Numbers of teams have come back from a 3-1 deficit. I truly believe this Cubs team can do it too ! Keep the faith bro- don't give up yet ! I'll be doing my native American chants for a win while watching it at a restaurant tonight on the road working. Hang in there brother, don't jump off the cliff just yet ! Help is on the way

Were you or someone you know sexually molested by a Jehovah's Witness ?
by flipper indue to the fact there are about 27,000 members of this religion that are known pedophiles, and the information about it is kept in a secret database file, i wonder how many lurking jw's as well as others are aware of the severity of this problem?
remember, it's 27,000 pedophiles that they know about.
what about the thousands that don't get caught?

TAMI- My heart truly goes out to you for what your daughters suffered. It's disgusting how criminal and insensitive WT leaders are and the apple doesn't fall far from the tree because they train JW elders to be just as criminal and insensitive. I do hope you get justice in Manitoba as the investigation unfolds. I wish you and your daughters the best and please be aware of our care and support and friendship to you. Hang in there, sincerely, mr. Flipper

Let's Be Honest - You or One of Your Ancestors Was an Idiot
by Simon inwhy were we ever a jw?
were we mad?
we must have been .... well, my excuse is that i knew nothing else.

Interesting thread, thanks for posting. I'm an offspring of " idiots " actually. I was born into the JW's also. Got out 13 years ago at age 44. Although my parents did well providing materially for the family- my dad was a legend in his own mind for years- very well known elder who reveled in being looked at in our town as the " Big Kahuna " .
I feel that the WT uses flattery and love bombing to turn people's minds off to the doubts screaming inside. Then once a person like my dad gets " used " by the WT Society which is considered " progressing in position " in the JW organization it goes to their head and through 60 years of being in the cult he got SO invested he believed all the false promises and delusions, plus his ego was stroked turning off his mind to reality.
I think the WT Society appeals to people who are lacking self esteem or lacking any real fulfilling accomplishments in their lives , also the JW organization actually LOOKS for people who are insecure or searching for comfort in their lives. ANY kind of comfort. Even the " illusionary paradise " which will make them forget loss of loved ones in death, going through a divorce, a broken family- anybody who is needy is very susceptible to being drawn in by a cult.
I remember as a former JW I'd hear others say out in field service about a return visit using this expression " they were searching for something, looking for the truth " .
So of course the WT Society is right there to offer their scam of imaginary " eternal Life " and imaginary " you'll never die or be sick again " - and people just eat this shit up- I swear. So I think that's what happened to my dad and mom . Now in their early 90's and late 80's they are too invested with my older adult siblings still in the JW cult- they feel they can't leave. And like you I look at my folks situation with pity. Like all of us- they will die eventually , sooner than later - and they were promised they'd never die. One reason I'm constantly calling the WT Society a criminal organization that uses people's lives up, then spits them out and just moves on as a corporate monster. Pretty disturbing. Mind control is powerful. As well as false promises. Lots of JW's and other cults alive and well due to these facts
