Last Saturday I sat through the one day assembly and I waited for the anticipated accounts report. For one day the costs were $10,000. Even my wife questioned why the costs are so high and why don't they give a break down on the costs?

Fudging The Numbers JW Style
by pale.emperor ini know most of us have probably figured this out already, but remember the good old days where you could only count full hours in the ministry?.
then one of the gb get some "new light" from their ass and proclaim that they lovingly will allow people to report 30mins, then even 15mins of time.
this was, supposedly, so that the old and infirm could have a joy in the ministry and report what little they could do.

etc etc - What is "etc. etc."? - are you suggesting dogs?......TheOldHippie
JW`s would be happy to count hours preaching to their dogs..

1000 Years is Like 1 Day?
by Sorry inanyone else hear about this.
as all j-dubs know, whenever someone complains about how long the "new system" is taking too arrive, they use the excuse that jehovah works on his own time.
quite a few times during the public talks, i've heard speakers say the phrase "1000 years to us is only one day to jehovah" (my parents never stop talking about this).

I've heard speakers say the phrase "1000 years to us is only one day to Jehovah" 1000 Years is Like 1 Day
Watchtower could say any stupid thing to JW`s...They`d believe it..

Learn To Speak Like A Jehovah's Witness
by pale.emperor infor those who were never a jw, here's a fun guide to passing yourself as one:.
privilege [priv-lij] - a duty nobody would volunteer to do which is assigned to you without your say so.
such as cleaning the toilets, picking up other brats candy wrappers in the back row and being stuck on locking up duty for the 7th time in a row.. df'd [dee-eff'd] - disfellowshipped.

FINE..
That was a FINE talk Brother Boring gave!..
Everything is FINE in Watchtower World..
THE FRIENDS..
You can`t have a "real friend" outside the WBT$.....It`s frowned upon..
Your Only Real Friends Are..

What Comes After the Watchtower Collapse?
by schnell ini was going to put this in my thread about pyramid schemes, but i thought it's discreet enough to warrant its own.
1) there are many faithful jws.
2) there are many men and women who could take control and fill the void if the watchtower collapses.

Also, this very year, they've made promises that they cannot take back about the great tribulation.
Watchtower has an explanation for everything..
...............................................................A)..We never said that.
B)..We have New Light..
C)..Your causing division in the congregation..
YOU COULD BE DISFELLOWSHIPPED..

Pyramid Schemes
by schnell inseveral years ago, i was introduced to a "wonderful" company called fortune hi tech marketing by a brother and his wife.
they had been introduced by a former sheriff who claims he had researched the company and found no leins or judgments, and that former sheriff had been brought in by a pastor.
you can read what happened with fhtm on wikipedia if you so desire.. this whole new idea of multilevel marketing had my brain reeling, though, and soon enough, i actually signed up with none other than prepaid legal.

Pyramid schemes were very common among JW`s when I was growing up..
One would die,another would pop up..
There was always a new way for JW`s..
To Financially Screw their Spiritual Bothers and Sisters..
It was part of JW CULTure..

Why are JWs so sensitive to criticism?
by Half banana ini remember a roman catholic priest acknowledging on the bbc that the outrageously anti-clerical tv comedy father ted was a humorous mocking of his church but an acceptable thing.. try mocking the jw religion to a believer and the result is so very different.. just why is it that jehovah's witnesses can never take even the faintest hint of criticism of their religion?.

It would mean WatchTower is Wrong..
If WatchTower is Wrong,JW`s are Wrong..

i really hate all these "what if" posts
by nowwhat? inall these hypothetical questions about the organization's demise or what if god did this or that don't do anyone any good.
personal experiences.
info and insight about your congregation, circuit, area and the watchtower itself is what we need.
