  The End of Circuit Overseers

  by wisdomfrombelow in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i am sure that the term "circuit overseer" will be gone soon.

  they seem to be changing vocabulary and the presiding overseer is now the "coordinator of the body of elders" and all "district overseers" will be gone in a few months.

  they used to be called "circuit servants" but they will never re-hash an old term so they will make a new term.

  Avoid Going back to the JW's - Educate Yourself about Mind Control

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've talked with some good friends on the board about this before and we seem to be in agreement : one reason ( among many ) that some disfellowshipped jw's go back and return to the wt organization is because they are full of uneeded guilt or uneeded fear because they haven't educated themselves about how the wt society uses mind control tactics to deceive them into thinking they have " nowhere else to go " .

  i understand that some dfed ones may go back to the organization for family and friends- however- it's an exrecise in futility because once you learn the truth about the truth you cannot undo what you heard.

  so some may just go back and live a fake jw life to appease family- but just think of how that can damage a person's emotional and mental health playing the fake jw game the rest of their lives !

  I love my brother!

  Yes it is complicated! You end up having a push-pull situation. But once you know about TTATT, you can never go back. So you have to deal with it as best you can. Either temporarily or permanently.

  Every situation is different, but I can accomplish quite a few things in the situation I am in. I cannot be overtly apostate, but I can work things as needed.

  I guess I am an undercover apostate, but that is okay for now.

  If you actually believe in the Bible and all that shit, then Adam and Methuselah prove that it was just one overlapping generation from the start of humankind until the flood. Adam died the year Methuselah was born, and he died the year of the supposed flood.

  Food for thought!

  DJS may have left the religion, but you can't take the "self-righteous elder" out of him.

  Miss.Fit,

  And then DJS showed his true colors on his second response. Not only was he totally off-base calling me a uneducated chimpanzee, but he pissed me off by accusing me of being a BELIEVER! I would much rather be an uneducated chimpanzee.

  And both sides are a bunch of pompous twits trying to impress each other. I am not impressed.
