  What is hard is, you have to know what would spark them. Some would be curious about the facts about the date of the fall of Jerusalem (which is supposed to be the basis of 1914) Others would leave over the pedophile cover up. But another group wouldn't care about either.

  Others have commented here on how they just treat their spouse with love and plan things to do that will weaken the hold the WT has on them. Because the WT really doesn't give people love - love for them just because they exist - but instead always judges and holds back approval.

  Waton - Bears are omnivores. Hey, it's the New Order and if God tells them to one, they will.

  Literature Carts are Really a Vast Spy Network

  i am not sure if this is getting into the tin foil hat arena, but what if one of the reasons for the carts is to spy out who is leading a double life and to catch the pimo's?

  they are everywhere in common public areas.

  like the stasi of e. germany.. i know i may be reaching, but we all know the way zealous j dubs love to rat out anyone who steps out of line.. they can't be there to place literature, because no one is taking it.

  It's a plot from Starbucks and weightwatchers. Drink plenty of high calorie coffee from Starbucks and the next stop is Weight watchers.

  How Do They Chose Someone To Be A Member Of The Illustrious Governing Body?

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  1. watchtower

  i'm mean were talking making someone a policy maker for the corporation that can have serious financial consequences.

  i'm sure intelligence is not high on the priority list for this noble office being they hate higher education and consider it a waste of time.. i'm sure they would thoroughly know the party line as any self respecting mind control would never choose an original thinker.

  i'm also sure a lot of ass kissing happens before one gets chosen as a ass wiping helper which seem to be a sort of initiation into governing body corporate politics and a sort of proving ground to show your determination protect the organization from the enemy be they what ever source.

  Appreciating a glass or two of fine scotch whisky would be a requirement I suppose.

  Then they would spin the bottle using it like the Urim and Thummim.

  I always imagined it this way. People would choose to be kind and thoughtful. No one would hurt the earth because they didn't want to. Dead animals would be cleaned up by omnivores that didn't hunt but scavenged. Each one could contribute their own talents.

  The WT sees it this way.

  They are up above everyone and tell others what to do.

  The earthly ones go to meetings and make sure that all of the resurrected shave their beards and wear what everyone else is wearing. They study because there are "new" scrolls that the anointed (the ones that never got a chance to lord it over others while on earth) make sure the earthly ones excruciatingly go over point by point.

  "I don't want to hear any negative comments about the truth"

  by days of future passed in

  today the "anointed" sister that drops off tracts at my house, did a little i'll just stop by and show her a website about furniture and then offer the memorial tract visit.. her exhusband is a jw that did terrible things to her by taking property, didn't want to pay adequate child support and had the elders on his side.

  she was telling me all about how, because he felt so guilty, now he had intestinal problems.

  eventually the conversation ended and she offered the memorial tract to me.. "did you get an invitation?

  Ahh complicated truths. This "sister" and I go back to childhood. There are many things about her that would fill a book. But at this point, I wish she would never come again. As with most JW's, they are allowed to say whatever they want, but if you bring up a "truth", they immediately act as if they have all the authority to shut you up.

  She also made up the excuse of showing me a website when in reality, she wanted to give me a tract. She wants to count time and "help" me. Nothing says the truth like having a hidden agenda.

  What Does the WTS say is the mark for survival of Armaggeddon--Baptism

  if you have not yet come to know and to accept as a way of life the righteous decrees of jehovah, you have no time to lose.

  you must act quickly if you are to stand before jehovah’s executional forces with the mark of true christian identification.

  Jehovah examines all the billions of human hearts and knows how rare such individuals are.

  1. This makes a JW feel special.

  2. I'm not good at math so I won't even try but.....if people are so rare that want to worship Jehovah, why is he waiting around for so long? The odds must be really small of more of these "rare" individuals coming along.

  3. Jehovah isn't good at making quality products and so you only get a "good" one now and again.

  4. Jehovah's way of life isn't much of a draw for most humans.

  Throw the question back. How is it better than Christendom?

  I got a flier for some church. They offer music, singing, children's jump houses and free donuts! Free donuts. When did the WT ever give out free food?
