Maybe if the law starts punishing the elders personally it might help speed up change

Two lies all Jehovah’s Witnesses are told

lie 1).

when you leave the jws you will be unhappy and will have a hole inside you that only the ‘truth’ will fill.

only when you return to the jws will you feel complete again.. utter nonsense!

My thoughts mimic yours.

When i was first Df those wicked worldy folk took me in. Both literally put a roof over my head and emotionally supported me.

And point 3. Lived in my current house 5 years neither me nor my neighbours have had a jw visit. But just the other day i heard the letter flap go and it was a memorial invite being put thru the door. They dont even knock! They act like the kebab house and just drop a menu!

to my suprise there was a large 'for sale' sign hanging off it!.

Lazy field service

by Addison0998 in

did anyone else have really lazy people in their congregation when it came to the field circus.

people where i live are shamelessly lazy, they drive door to door even when the houses are 3 feet apart!

yes even in town houses they drive door to door.

Me and another pioneer (also now df) used to get territory cards off the elder who looker after that stuff.

We would pick the areas furthest from where we lived and walk there. Count the time and then walk back as it was now too late to do any knocking "street witness" there and back.

But mostly we ate mars bars and put the world to rights.
