i have spent 45 years of my life sacrificing my soul to the watchtower.
twenty-five of those years as a ms/elder.
i gave every moment to them.
So when he found out about how I have quickly abandoned the organization, he seemed upset with me. He would start to defend the Watchtower. He tried to question my motives about leaving. I explained to him that he has ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA of what it means to be a witness.
Some of the most Rabid Defenders of the Watchtower..

ld love to be a fly on the wall when the gb have a round the table conference.l can only imagine .l wonder which one came up with the idea of the overlapping generation and how the others reacted to it.the light was shining brightly that day.
Are the Governing Baboons master manipulators or are they just doing their job?
Does anybody outside the JW`s ..
Really believe people like Stephen Lett are in Charge of the Watchtower??!!..

i thank one of my former lecturers for drawing my attention to this overview.. after some 100 years, living out its "manifest destiny" dream, as the hegemon of the world, what has this 'dream' done to/for the usa?
the approaching presidential election provides an opportunity to examine this question.. and what of all the appendage organisations (like the wts) that rode across the world on the hegemon's coattails?.
the answer may be here: http://www.vox.com/2016/3/1/11127424/trump-authoritarianism.
What does the rise of Donald Trump tell us about the USA?
Americans love American TV Celebrities..
Millions of Americans watched Donald Trump on The Apprentice..

i ran into an older sister who has always been very sweet.. it was a friendly chat...yet she pushed for a reason why my family have been missing from meetings for some time.
the question was deflected, until it just had to be said: "well, there have been some troubling and disturbing issues about the society especially the way things were handled during the royal commission, as well as many other issues".. she quickly cut in and said "but why would you want to know these things?
its best not to research and look at those sort of things - so we don't get upset!".
She quickly cut in and said "But why would you want to know these things? Its best not to research and look at those sort of things - so we don't get upset!"
It struck me how the average witness lives in ignorance...WILLFUL ignorance....

What about Watchtower Society's holy money?
Imagine if Watchtower is in there somewhere.
If the Watchtower was Responsible for all of it....."Everything!"
It Wouldn`t Matter..
Watchtower would STILL be "God`s Organization",to Jehovah`s Witnesses..

any cheaper ways of getting a copy?
i won't want to steal.
a thought occurred that there is a danger in thinking we know everything, or have it all figured out in life.
especially when it comes to matters of doctrine or faith.. witnesses (or at least the society as a whole) are so self-confident, so proud to be the only ones who know "the truth" about everything to do with the universe, the earth, our past and our future, that pride kicks in.
and pride is dangerous...(.and before a fall).
May I add, that posters who are dogmatic, and choose to plague every thread that could be remotely connected to the topic about which they are dogmatic, can be disruptive, and purposely have derailed many a thread. It's akin to a dog, snapping at everyone who comes within reach of its leash.
Oh, the term dogma need not refer to religion......Talesin

If a proposed bill in Mexico passes, new law will mean jailtime for JW´s
"Next 25th of may in the Senate of the Republic a law will be debated to protect the home that will impose fines or charges of up to 6 weeks in jail to those that preach the word of God at inappropriate hours.
Oh the Horror!..
JW`s will be Forced to Behave like Civilized Human Beings..
Enforced Common Courtesy will Erode the JW Way of Life..
It`s Persecution of "Jehovah`s People" at it`s Worst!..
