i thought paradise was supposed to be a delight?
not according to the august study wt, on page 20 paragraphs 4-12 it outlines how much paradise will be exactly like being in the org today.
still following rules, waiting on jehovah and obeying those taking the lead.
If they keep up this idea of the new system actually being a police state, this whole religion will lose any last hints of luster. What the heck will anyone have to look forward to?
Bring it on, WT!! Show them your dark hopes and dreams, your desire for world domination!! 'Vee are going to rule zee VORLD!!'
Sounds like an Austin Powers plot.
i remember this time of year when jw's desend en mass on one area.
a fun game to play is "spot the..." whatever jw walking stereotype you choose.. so i thought i would play it with you guys, starting with how to spot a single jw sister.. i say, she will be dressed up to the nines, probably over dressed in fact, have hair immaculately coffied, make up plastered on, towering heels and be smiling at every brother in site.
all they need is a sign saying "pioneer, virgin, available for marriage!".
A very attractive young sister in our old hall just got engaged to a brother that looks literally like a russet potato.
Slim pickings for witness girls indeed!!

report).

If their motive is to find out WHY, they can just come to places like this and see threads like 'what woke you up?' I think it's more about control than research.
interesting that it's Poland. They've been free to worship there only since The early 90's.
well, here i am.. hello world, mrs. eden sending regards to everyone.
:).
my english is limited, so please go easy on me.. mrs. eden.
tough to watch this whole video, the way he talks gets pretty annoying, especially after the rc hearings:.
http://tv.jw.org/#video/vodstudio/pub-jwban_201506_1_video.
go to around 8:20 where he gets into the pronunciation of jehovah.
Lol COH, I really wonder what exactly would happen!
They would freak out, for sure...because it's loyalty to the org they really care about, and the org's name starts with 'Jehovah'!
Wouldn't want to be a rebel now, would you? No, the real rebel was Russell, scorning the religious establishment. Luther was a rebel too, starting a Chrisitianity that wasn't part of the Catholic Church. And way before him, was the rebel Jesus, who heartily disagreed with the religious leaders of his time.
But rebels at the Kingdom Hall, not allowed. They might stop talking to you if you said Yahweh.

How I WISH I was never in any sort of file with this organization!!! It's like having your identity stolen, you see the effects years later. Or it's like unwittingly joining the mafia, having to go in the 'witness protection program' (ironic name). Or it's like the CIA or living in McCarthyism, and they've got a file on you somewhere.
If you are lurking and considering joining this religion, heed my words. Want to lose your sense of privacy? Want big brother watching you? Then go ahead.
what would make a man throw away all his earthly riches to expose the cult?
what did ray franz have to gain by leaving in total poverty?
if ray franz had stayed in place, he could have lived like a god, why did he leave?
