Hitler, the Nazis and the GB/WT, the similarities thread.
by Phizzy inlast night i watched a docco on the telly, which i think was done by the good old paedophile hiding bbc, about the "dark charisma" of hitler.. it pointed out that within the worship offered to hitler, there was an element , quite pronounced, that affected most of the populace, that he was not to blame for the short-comings of the nazi regime.. "if only herr hitler could do everything himself, all would be well" was the attitude.. i see a similarity with the attitude of jw's about the gb , despite the grandiose, bloated, and yet baseless claims of that body of arrogant frauds, the average jw simply will not lay any blame at their door for all the cock-ups.. the often heard "they are only imperfect men" claim is really the same one made about friend adolf, and it holds just about the same amount of water.. do you see other similarities between the nazis, hitler et al, and the gb/wt ???
and with the attitude of the german nation and the r&f jw's ?.

Do you ever make a toast (raise your glass, I mean, not put bread in a toaster)?
by sd-7 ini had quite the fun time at my wedding reception with the jw family so worried that my non-jw aunt was going to do a toast.
unlike them, i do have regard for not offending the conscience of others, so of course i wasn't going to allow that under the circumstances.
i mean, if they really thought i was going to let them do that, why did they even come in the first place?

Apostates and the Holy Spirit
by iamwhoiam ini've heard elders say more than once that if the congregation isn't productive, there is probably an apostate in the midst; since the holy spirit doesn't seem to be upon the congregation.
anyone ever hear similar claims before?.

Did you feel guilty for not pioneering?
by brokethechain ini started pioneering the month i finished high school, and never stopped until i awakened, 17 years later.
it seems like the entire time, there was so much emphasis on pioneering.
every field service meeting seemed to have a part that communicated the message that jehovah would zap us at the big a. or people would die because of us if we didn't have extenuating circumstances (i always translated as bad health or kids, but even then, there were always "examples" of the mom with 5 kids that was pioneering).
