Lines you would never hear from a Jehovah's Witness

by Ron.W. in

a slightly tongue in cheek, but also serious roundup of jw speak and why trying to reason with them is like trying to chip through concrete with a plastic spoon.. how many can you think of??.

elder: 'yes.

i read through the material you asked me to at your judicial meeting - you're right we're both in a cult!

The Dickslinger chases the Magnificent Seven - (albeit glacially slowly) through the flames of hell..

The epicenter of Friday’s metro-area quake was around Watchtower's former Mountain Farm in Lebanon, NJ

by was a new boy in

'the epicenter of friday’s metro-area quake was around the sleepy, tiny, agricultural town of lebanon, nj — where the temblor sent residents running home from work to check their houses and loved ones.. the us geological survey confirmed that the rare historic 4.8 earthquake struck around 10.23 a.m. near the small borough in hunterdon county — just a stone’s throw from donald trump’s national golf club in bedminster, where a 2.0 magnitude aftershock was felt shortly after.. the incident caused buildings to shake everywhere from the big apple to pennsylvania, connecticut and delaware.. “i was working from my home office in town, and everything started falling off the shelves,” lebanon mayor james pittinger told the post.

“i felt a shake like i’ve never felt in the 30 years i’ve lived here.. “it was one of the craziest things i’ve ever experienced.”.

Advice on fade?

by NotNorwich in

jw
friends

hello, i’ve just joined here and am hoping for some advice.

i was baptised a long time ago but left soon after (da).. i recently returned and have a bible study.

was reinstated about a year ago.

Ron.W.

👍

Really good advice.

You sometimes don't really see the full extent of jw brainwashing until you've had time away from it.

I bumped into a person from another cong who doesn't know I have long faded.

I asked "How's your sister doing. I used to work with her some time ago?"

They answered. "SHE'S NOT IN THE TRUTH ANYMORE!"

I said, "Sorry to hear that, but how is she, is she ok?"

They then answered even more aggressively and dogmatically "I've just told you, SHE'S NOT IN THE TRUTH!"

I said, "Oh, sorry. Is there a family problem, is she giving you all a hard time spiritually?"

They said "No, not at all - SHE'S JUST NOT IN THE TRUTH SO WE HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH HER!"

I was tempted to mention the recent advice to reach out to those who had left 'The Truth', but I thought, what's the point, as soon as they realise I no longer go to the hall I will be cut off too.

The point is, I could not see it when I was in - I had to leave to see how utterly odd the jw's are.

by redsetter2 in

you read this correctly.

as i explained in an earlier post, i am a "ghostwriter" for the original resetter.

i'm a woman, a pimo regular pioneer working for my friend who was redsetter1 on reddit.

Ron.W.

Haven't we seen the same with the title of 'Auxiliary Pioneer'? Basically anyone with a heart beat, now qualifies. And of course, now we have the totally bogus tick box publisher reporting slip.

👍👍

🤣🤣🤣

Im hearing some say that the Org is about to reverse the No Blood policy - about to change...

by BeaverEater in

uh, i wonder if that is true... hearing this from friends within bethel... gonna laugh my ass of if they change this....

Ron.W.

👍👍

Yes good points.

Perhaps they could only pull that off in the future by having a total rebrand and name change??

How the Society can change anything they want

by HowTheBibleWasCreated in

it's been a long time since i last posted here.

however in light of recent changes i have thought a bit about things and have come to the conclusion that the society might.

.. use the "evil slave" argument.

Ron.W.

Yes. I've noticed recently that they introduce a scripture perhaps not used before in a certain context.

Then they take an element of the verse they like, and apply it to a new light teaching.

They seem to realise that if they just use even a smidgeon of a verse from the bible, even totally out of context the jw droids will accept their change of thought as Jehovah progressively revealing truth to them
