"ordinarily, i wouldn't be here, but this is one our 13,000 congregations in the united states.

watchtower bait & switch?

today i uploaded a new article to my blog addressing a discrepancy between what watchtower tells potential converts prior to baptism compared with what watchtower tells converts after baptism.

in each case watchtower tells the individual something in straightforward terms.

Conversation I overheard this morning...

so this morning i decided to go see if i could find some interesting used books for my flight in a couple of weeks and i saw a jw from one of the local congregations...she didn't see me, even though she was directly behind me looking at the same section of books.

i'm not exactly easy to miss, but i digress.. she was on the phone and was talking about a few things that i found incredibly interesting.

firstly, i guess a woman that just got baptized last year is absolutely fed up with the org!
