not really, it could anyone of those guys who shows a sign of humaness/compassion and regret and go on exposing them all to the media worse than ray franz ever could have.
yes i know this may be wishful thinking/computing on my part but i feel it is a harmless indugence or may be it is just my deep unconscious foretelling a likely scenerio.. and it is good to create a distrust among these guys each one trying to beat the other to jump ship because thier unconscious is giving them fits to get the hell out when the getting is good.
maybe even report their fellow gbs to the authorities to be granted clemency or something.
I have some interesting insight on Sam Herd.....and believe me, I agree with you.
He finds the way elders treat each other to be disgusting.
He isn't a 'dumb' guy perse...... you just have to wonder if he is going to have that 'moment' that wakes him up......
If anyone...him...but I think they are all too scared anymore.
i apologize if this has already been covered, maybe someone can post the link.. what is the real reason for the society forgiving all loans for kingdom halls and just giving the money for new ones?.
Irony......money given to them as donations, then being used as loans for them to collect interest on.
Yeah....irony.
i must admit i can at times be a little "egotistical" when it comes to knowledge and the bible.
i have studied the bible for so long and have always had a passion for the bible as a jw and as an ex-jw.
i guess that is all i have left when it comes to religion and as humans we do tend to stroke our egos.
I'm still waiting for someone to answer my question....it goes well with the original post:
If everyone that dies before Armageddon get a ressurection, why aren't JW's just out killing people to ensure they get to the Millinial Reign....why bother with field service??
i'm not talking about a individual, but a congregation as a whole.. i'm talking about a brother or sister that really hit hard times.. have there ever been an occasion where the brothers (elders).
decided to dip into the kh funds and help one in need????.
example, brother loose his job, get evicted, family of four or.
Kind individuals? Yes
Congregation? No

It was this sort of thing that led me to a bigger question:
If everyone killed before Armageddon is guaranteed a resurrection.....why aren't JW's commanded to buy a good gun and go around shooting everyone they see....screaming "you can thank me in Paradise"......instead of drudging from door to door making it all optional? If you were really "loving" wouldn't you just kill people and let Jehovah sort it out in Paradise?????
Otherwise, they may not read a Watchtower......which would cost them eternal life.
Yeah.....
.......the absurdity is truly infinite.......
at the meeting the other night, the elder who had to read the announcements, which included the $$ info for the new donation arrangement seemed downright disgusted as he read the announcements and asked for the vote.
he said, "well, here is another organizational change" as he read the letter about the discontinuation of the 2nd meeting during co visit.
then after they voted, he said if you have any questions ask this other elder as if he wanted nothing to do with it.
It was being an elder for over 11 years that woke me up..... if the 'publishers' only knew what was going on behind closed doors. ....however, the fact that they don't know what is going on is also THEIR fault, as it was mine......
it's happened before.
how much crap can any rational human being take before they just snap & walk away disgusted?.
Wow......well said wallsofjericho.....
The vast majority of JW's couldn't tell you a damn thing about doctrine, where to find a scripture or the difference between Noah and Moses.
They will always be around in some form. One thing is for certain, if this 1914 'generations' garbage doesn't wake someone up...nothing will.
this site is probably one of the most informative jw sites on the internet.
if you want to keep abreast of the watchtower, this is a great place to find out the latest in jw land.
kudos to simon for keeping it going all these years!!!
FANTASTIC site.....fantastic information.....but I would update the forum.....the ads drive me nuts...particularly in the first post
what is the(or what was your) main motivation for serving god as a jw(or any christian)?.
a) love for god and genuinely trying to learn more about him and bible truths?.
b) to escape punishment/death at armegddon?.
he would love to see you.
i would tell them please come out anyway he would just love to see you.
i saw the lack of love and could not believe it.
I've seen, heard and read this story a thousand times.
They couldn't give two s**ts about anyone.
The most arrogant people I've ever known.
