  Whole Study Article on Commenting at Meetings

  by JW_Rogue in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i guess less people are commenting now.

  last week's whole wt study was dedicating to the issue of commenting.

  people were literally making comments about how to comment, it was very meta (not that most there would get that), anyway the main reason that wt gave to explain away people's lack of commenting?

  'This point from the Faithful Slave in paragraph 12 ties in well with the pedophile problem that is costing the Watchtower and Bible Tract Society 100's of millions of dollars because they keep insisting offenders should not be turned into the proper authorities and try to keep it secret."

  I might try to find this later, but does anyone remember a YouTube video of a scenario very similar to this? Someone had gotten the mic and started talking about the pedophile problem, and the brother sitting next to them kept trying to take the mic away. When he couldn't get the mic away, he started telling the young brother carrying the mic to take it away, but the brother wouldn't listen. He just let the person talk with a little smirk on his face. He looked around 16 or 17. Maybe he knew TTATT. I'll probably never be able to find that video again.

  I'm PIMO, and I was telling someone recently about all of the Watchtower properties being sold, and this person actually got a little upset with me. It's as if they know that something is wrong, and they want to avoid any little thing that might burst their bubble. I'm surprised the person I was talking to didn't just plug their ears and go, "La la la la la, I don't hear you, la la la la la."

  I completely agree with it. Anyone who is terminally ill should be in complete control if they choose to end it before their sickness does.

  that's biologically impossible.

  Fearmongering : The greatest ploy the Watchtower Society uses against its faithful members

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  "shortly, within our twentieth century*, the "battle in the day of jehovah" will begin against the modern antitype of jerusalem, christendom.

  " (the nations shall know that i am jehovah; 1971; 2nd ed.

  fearmongering or scaremongering is the spreading of frightening and exaggerated rumors of impending danger or the habit or tactic of purposely and needlessly arousing public fear about an issue.

  There's one point that I disagree with Lloyd on, and that's the idea that Tony Morris actually believes in this religion. While there may be other members of the governing body who truly believe what they teach, Tony absolutely does not strike me as one of those people. In his case it seems to be the exact opposite. That man knows EXACTLY what he is doing. Why else would he stand in front of thousands talking about how Armageddon will be like the Vietnam war, with humans "blackened and splitting open"? He comes across as a bully, a manipulator, a control freak, and a narcissist who wants to scare the living daylights out of anyone who will let him.

  Do you think its stupid that JWs can't date regular people?

  by nowawake14 in

  that is absolutely the number one rule that i resent.. i feel sorry for some of those poor dependent minded jws who can't find anyone to marry.

  all because they were only allowed to be with witnesses.

  what a bunch of boloney!

  Yet another reason to be depressed, hearing a member of the opposite sex talk about how dorky and weird JW guys are. I just wish they could cut us some slack, especially those of us that were born in. It's not our fault that our parents chose to raise us in a cult. Maybe if we could have been raised in the real world, and allowed to experience normal developmental milestones, then maybe we wouldn't be so weird and dorky. I struggle every single day to just feel and act normal. I try not to think about all the things I missed out on, even at my age. When I think about the man I could've been without the brainwashing, it's a struggle to even get out of bed.

  Does anybody else still have an obsession about Saturday morning weather?

  by Exelder in

  2. friends

  i am still enjoying the luxury of weekends to do whatever i want....but....out of habit i am still obsessed with looking at the weather for saturday mornings.

  rain on a saturday morning was a very rare treat and we got the morning off, although as group leader, i still had to go to the group just in case somebody turned up.. does anybody else still watch the weekend forecast with interest?

  (i am aware that this is probably a uk thing as we are obsessed with the weather ha ha).

  Sometimes I take it personally when the weatherman says that it's going to rain on Saturday morning, and then nothing happens. And sometimes they'll say it's going to rain, but it will be in the afternoon. What good will afternoon rain do me? I know that they don't control the weather, but I have to catch myself when the silly idea pops into my head that they somehow had something to do with me having to knock on doors. Today was one of those days.
