saw two of them today outside a superstore I sometimes go to, I thought I'll walk over to them grab a WT and exchange a few pleasantries , took the WT and said " I see your lot have been in the news a lot lately ( In was just about to mention the ARC) one of the ladies said "sorry we dont speak any English" they were obviously Eastern European but the were distributing English WT/Awakes, just goes to show what an utter waste of time it really all is, needless to say the WT was binned when I got home

good grief how many more congs can me squeezed into the existing KH's it tells me that meeting attendances are dwindling which is strange because for decades the congs in South East London have boomed and there was enormous growth, clearly not the case anymore, I see some of those congs disbanding , the Pekham KH surely cant take any more they have seven already which is lunacy, real estate prices in these areas are obscene, the WTS obviously realise it, the sales of KH's in Forest Hill and Deptord surprises me, not so much Erith and Sevenoaks

The God of The Bible Must be Stupid
by AnonVet ini don't mean to be blasphemous to the real god.
i just don't think the god of the bible is our actual god.
and i think the god of the bible is not very bright.. i was thinking about the flood the other day.

I dont think I've ever met a bigger group of gutter sniping, malicious good for nothing gossips than one will ever meet in any environment outside the jw's, they thrive on it.

Your feelings for the former travelling overseers
by Hecce induring our wt life we met a good number of friends involved in the circuit and district work.
i am sure that we share the same experience and that we remember fondly some that we caring, loving and generally interested in the brothers.
at the same time we might remember others that were arrogant, selfish, abusive and oppressive.

to think I haven't spoke or crossed paths with a CO for almost 25 years, my feelings remain the same, Freddos words capture the feelings about them perfectly, "nondescript, predicable drones with unpleasant,unhelpful petty demeanour's" classic.

Here's a morbid thought...
by Rainbow_Troll init probably will never happen but... imagine the gb recieved some new light that told them the great tribulation was imminent.
the world is going to hell and all jws can expect until armageddon is terrible persecution the likes of which no christian has ever experienced in two thousand years.
but jehovah has a solution: put yourself and your family 'to sleep' and after armageddon's over, jehovah will 'wake his people up' at the resurrection.

the suggestion wouldn't surprise me at all, would the millions of R&F do it? no they wouldn't especially in the wealthy developed first world, firstly deep down a vast percentage of them are extremely secretly materialistic, many enjoy comfortable lifestyles, have nice houses, nice cars,good careers, have nice holidays,have kids in collage, mortgages etc, would they throw those trappings away to drink the Kool Aid? not in a million years, we would would see schisms and offshoots of the WTS formed almost immediately, plus the authorities would not want another WACO siege on their hands, the HQ and their other important properties would be seized, we know how the anonymous decision makers behind the curtain view the value of their assets,how many times do we hear that being a jw is just like a membership of a "country club?"

GB Gerrit Losch and his questionable article in the 7/14 WT study edition!!!
by ADJUSTMENTS inin this article gerrit talks about his father in the first and last paragraphs, what he says about him and his hope for him goes against all that witnesses have preached about the worldly for the last 100 years... as i recall aren't all the worldly supposed to be destroyed and never have a hope of everlasting life like jw's are, and isn't that the purpose of the preaching work to baptize and warn the worldly of this???
if not why do jws even preach, or even become jws in the first place if all have a hope of everlasting life, jw and non-jw, are they releasing a little hint at new light to come???
or am i just missing or over analyzing something?.

good work PE, thats the general tone I try to use when I speak with them, the cart in my local town centre isnt out much at all these days, not that they will speak to me other than just basic pleasantries

Despite their false predictions aren't the JWs right? Won't the world eventually end & Paradise come?
by deegee inaren't there christian denominations who do not make false end of the world predictions but who nevertheless believe that the world will eventually end and paradise (whether in heaven or on earth) will come?.
it seems the watchtower was just jumping the gun when they made false end of the world predictions but they are nevertheless the right: the world will eventually end and paradise will come..
