Why are there two Watchtowers published? The real reason
by exjehovah inso i talked to my dear aunt who is disfellowshipped but still has to interact with my elderly jw witness and masquerading jw aunt (really doesn't agree with the jw doctrine, but lives with my grandmother to take care of her) and she told me that there are now two watchtowers published, one that they use for congregation and the other for their "field service".. why do you suppose they are really doing that?
is it because they are trying to keep things from the public eyes?
i was really surprised to hear that..

I have a question regarding" free" magazines
by smiddy insince they no longer charge for mags at the doors do the publishers carry this cost ?i used to be a literature servant and you never gave away mags unless they were old and out of date to be left at doctors waiting rooms etc.
not at peoples homes ,otherwise householders would expect to get them for free.
in other words do the publishers pay for the mags and give them away for free?

Why the hell do I feel like this suddenly?!?!
by freshstart intoday i saw a friend that is still a hardcore jw.
she knows we're not going to meetings, but seemed pretty cool with it and was willing to have lunch with me, so i thought why not?
she mentioned something about the convention coming up in a couple of weeks, and all of the sudden i got so nostalgic and felt like maybe i wanted to go.

Why Do Some People Who Know Better Remain "In The Truth"?
by minimus inover the years, i would wonder why brother smarter than most would stay in a false religion.
i've spoken to many jws who have confided in me their doubts.
you would think, that they would be eager to get out, knowing what they know....but for some reason they stay and suck it up and continue the charade.. i can understand if a person decides to stay for family and because of not wanting to be shunned.....but how do they still, in good conscience, promote the "truth", when in fact they know it's all bullshit?.

Brother with "Apostate Leaning" not kicked out yet?...
by RagingBull ina few sundays ago, i noticed a brother who rarely comes to the hall anymore (my attendance is sketchy anyway) even though his wife still does.
he had a full on goatee, and his wife has expressed to other sisters that he's just "trusting in the bible and not the organization so much".
the elders must know of this b/c his father-n-law is an elder in our congregation.

The JWs in the crowd gasped in Australian court..
by koolaid-man inshocking information near the bottom of this report from a watchtower lawyer definding the organization in australian courts.focus on the information under the heading: "the faithful and discreet slave".
quite the shocker... the society's lawyer statesthere is no true physical body of people, but only a theological arrangement.
the jws in the crowd gasped.

GB Member Rejects Nuremberg Morality
by metatron ini have been told that samuel herd gave a talk at the annual meeting that continues a specific rejection of the nuremberg standard within the organization.
by citing the example of gideon, he taught that if we obey a foolish or wrong command in jehovah's organization, we are not blamed by jehovah.
this continues and intensifies the arrogant (and yes, satanic) idea that 'we can't be wrong'.
