Prediction: no more changes for a long while

by slimboyfat in

i’ve noticed a pattern where things don’t go the way i expect them to go and/or whenever i realise there is a trend and, i mentally adjust for the idea that the trend will continue, the trend stops in its tracks.

so on that basis, and given many people, including myself, and active jws, have been asking ‘what changes will the governing body make next?’ perhaps the (disappointing) answer is: ‘nothing much for a while to come’.

maybe they’ve made the changes they want for now, and will wait a while and see how it’s received.

Thank you Phizzy.

The finances and contributions interest me.

Do young ones today contribute much as a group to the watchtower?

When I was a young regular pioneer in the 1980's I donated nothing.

I figured that I was already giving them 90 hrs plus month free labour as a pioneer, working on numerous quick builds for free and working on my own kingdom hall's maintenance for nothing.

All this while holding down a low paid part time job while many of my friends worked full time and had lots more money for cars, clothes, holidays, meals etc..

So I would be interested today to know how much young ones give to the borg?

Sorry if it's already been posted, but can you say what caused redsetter to wake up?

Lloyd Evans Patreoff May 2024

by DerekMoors in

time for this month's patreoff!

the fat one's numbers seem to be leveling off a bit, but we all know someone with his gravitational pull can't keep up momentum for long.. i made up another chart and used 356 for april because that's where he was on the 2nd.

also, this time last year was when he put out his "things are bad and i don't just mean what i look like naked" video and got a +187 bump.

338 please!

Microphones reminded of when I did the sound and handed them out to the sound team as a servant.

A young hot shot former bethelite elder comes up to me on the sound booth after the watchower study had started and said 'Go and take the microphone off brother Ian and give it to someone else.'

I said 'Why?' He said 'Ian has grown a beard since last sunday.'

I said 'You're the elder, you tell him - and totally embarrassing him by taking it off him during the watchtower is not going to win him over!'

He went off disgruntled, muttering and angry and proceeded to snatch the mike off him during the meeting and handed it to brother clean shaven..

I wonder now what 'brother Ian' makes of the new beard policy...

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!
