Bizarre statement in April 2012 Awake
by dozy inas books go, it is tiny, but it is immeasurably great in its essence.
it can be carried in ones pocket,but if it were found in a library of 90,000 different books, it would probably turn out to be the most important one of them all.. wow a strong endorsement of the bible?
er no this is the wtbts we are talking about here.

Hmm.... are they really touting a 20-year old book? Are they so incapable of writing anything new of spiritual interest they have to recycle it? Or maybe they just discovered large numbers of the book languishing somewhere in a corner of their storehouse....

" they had a couple of brothers do a demonstration. Mocha break (!) out in service'."... don't tell me they're institutionalizing the door-to-door mid-morning coffee break cop-out!

and on and on it goes, study article after study article, foisting a totally unnatural, unappealing lifestyle on the flock, behavior manipulation via guilt, fear, mind-numbing repetition and bogus uber-phony "real-life examples" of JWs turning their backs on a normal life ... it seems they've all but abandoned the publishing of study articles on doctrinal issues and/or prophecy that were so frequent 30 or do years ago..

Gave 5 JW's Something to Think About at a Starbucks Today
by flipper ini was having coffee at a starbucks located in a supermarket chain in one of the towns i work in my business .
while sitting there doing paperwork , what looked like 3 elders on their field service break sat at a table no more than 4 feet from me .
after eavesdropping it was obvious they were elders as they were talking about the c.o.

You gotta love how the practice of copping out of door-to-door in favor of coffee time -- while counting through it all -- has become so ingrained in current JW culture.

GB Stridency: Nudge, Nudge, Wink, Wink Doesn't Work Anymore
by metatron incurrently, it often seems like everything that comes from the glorious masters of time and space (aka 'the governing body that couldn't shoot straight') sounds like it would be printed in capital letters if it was part of an email (very annoying).. which tells you that:.
the old 'nudge, nudge, wink, wink' style of watchtower command and control ain't working anymore.
wha' happened?

I can just picture the bulging eyeballs and veins on the neck of a GB as stands over a WT writer, dictating this blather.

Room 215
I attended the WT study yesterday; it was amusing that the elder conducting the meeting, being an affluent sort -- married, both with careers, no kids, huge house, luxury cars, all the "boy toys" imaginable -- world travellers (a regular on all the Society's overseas junkets), etc. etc. found it necessary to say "there's nothing wrong with higher education; we just have to be .... balanced "(whatever that means)...
At this point several of his type in the audience -- also elders -- raised their hands to endorse his view, making similar comments. During some post-meeting chit-chat, I said I couldn't help wondering -- aloud -- to one of those who commented, whether they would have made those remarks if the Circuit Overseer were in attendance!

First and foremost, consider the uber-phoniness of another of the purported "real-life" examples cited in the paragraph 17; it ranks right up there with the recent one in which an affluent JW couple divested themselves of two (or was it three?) homes, a luxury automobile or two jewelry, etc. and are now deliriously happy as regular pioneer door-bangers.....
