anyone who has awakened to ttatt and conscientiously left the organization--especially a once-prominent individual from a prominent multi-generational tribe of jws-- after decades of devout, high-profile "serve-us," who continues to put in an annual appearance at the memorial thoroughly subverts and undermines, by this one act, any hope s/he may entertain that his/her departure will stir family or former friends to question the whole watchtower bamboozle.
by this one concession s/he assigns him-/herself by every single jw to their handy and dimissive purgatory: the "spiritually-weak.".
nothing blasts a louder, clearer, and more deliberate message to the jws who personally knew you and those familiar with your jw bona fides that you are not merely "not making the meetings" or "spiritually-weak" but that there is a conscientious reason you have rejected the entire watchtower society life than choosing to forego what they know you know to be their one-and-only holy and sacred event of the year, the lord's evening meal.
ironically, as "observers" there is zero necessity for "us" to be there anyway. But the R&F would never really be able to fathom that
at the extj.com forum, a very serious scandal is being discussed regarding a potential misappropriation of funds by mexico's branch.. http://www.extj.com/showthread.php?24740-denuncia--quot-proyecto-fantasma-quot-salon-de-asambleas-de-guadalajara-o-robo-de-fondos.
though the situation may not be quite uncommon, below you will find an overview:.
a member of mexico's branch committee went to guadalajara to inform the brothers that a plot of land had been donated for the construction of an assembly hall.
the largest donation I have ever made was $20 and I have not donated a single penny for at least 10 years.
whenever they hand out papers to donate funds privately I never hand them in. One time I wrote down $400 but then I never donated it... and I was a believer back then! but I still didn't care. Even then I felt like our cong. was misusing the money
is it correct that the words "governing body" now appear in the nwt??.
woah!!
!.
its not in the verse, its in the foreword to one of the bible books I understand
in the july 2014 study wt article titled "jehovah's people "renouce unrighteousness".
par 9 and 10 .
9. how did foolish and ignorant debates affect the early christian congregation?.
look at all those apostates... woman wearing dress pants, jeans with ties, handle bar mustaches, 5 o'clock shadow, sheeeesh!!
apostates never wear dresses or suits or clean shaven.
one question: where are the bandana's
i noticed that, especially for men, that they are required to dress in drab colors for boasting sessions and in field circus.
men are supposed to wear dirty colored suits--dark gray, muddy brown, black, and off-shades of maroon, forest green, and navy/midnight blue seem to be most common.
they get hounded if they wear something in a "loud" color--meaning anything that is near one of the major points in the rainbow and near saturation (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, or violet is most likely to result in a major hounding).
I disagree completely with everything you claim. You sound very depressed.
new guidelines for field service coming this summer.
new publication to be released giving new ways of counting time, conducting studies, group activities, etc..

...you smoke a cigar and its delicious!
...you have no idea who or what to vote for
...you get to the casino and you have no idea what to do with your money
... you clink your glass (cheers) at EVERY opportunity
my mom has been a jw since 1968...never brought anyone into the "truth.
" what are your experiences?
what was your "closing ratio?
unfortunately, yes
one thing i have learned over the years is there is a clear, distinct purpose to everything the wts does.
everything is done to accomplish a defined purpose.. did they really print millions of new bibles just to be more accurate?
after decades of toughting how much better the nwt was than any other bible?.
All the reasons make some sense to me
but I honestly believe there is more to it than money or a sudden desire to be more accurate
that is not the WTS M.O.
yes money is. But not this way. I actually think it would take years to fully cover such an immense cost, hundreds of thousands of JWs will not be able to contribute or simply wont
I truly believe the WTS has a doctrinal change coming that is aligned with the new grey goose
