yeah so got invited this year and just thought what a waste of my time no one partakes in the wine or bread the talk has been the same for 20 years i would rather stay home.
I think I might have been spoiled.
In every hall I have attended from the 1960's to the 2000's there was at least 2 or 3 'anointed'..
The serious older ones from my youth gave the impression they were somehow different and on a higher spiritual plane to the rest of us, without appearing condescending or superior...
Not sure how the current partakers come across?
is the sunday special talk prior to the memorial just an introduction of a new outline for the sunday public talks?.
is it an attempt to get the faders back to the meetings?
they present in a way like some new light is going to be presented at the special talk..
Is this the 'special' talk?
Is there anything 'special' about it that has not been regurgitated ad infinitum in jw land for eons of time already??

i’m still an elder and i consider myself jw light.
as my fellow elders are.
we don’t throw our weight around like elders used to in the past, it’s all very easy going these days.
Stan, I think you've cracked it!👍👍👍
If only we could report him to his congregation for visiting here.

Why not tell your elder body you post here - who knows if they're as full of jw lite shite like yourself they may just join us here...

Yes!
Let 'ElderBerry' tell his fellow 'lite' elders and fellow jdubs he posts here regularly and see how fast his jw lite ass is swiftly kicked into touch...

This post sounds like a jw recruitment drive -🤦♂️
ALL my family and friends of family who are in are just as brainwashed and intolerant as they ever were...
this image is from "the watchtower" july 2024 (study edition):i can't figure out what that object is that is between the sleeping apostles.wath is it?
a stick, a scroll of the scriptures?
....
I've looked and looked and looked and I can't seem to see anything unusual in this image? 😉😉
Reminds me of when in the wt study a few of us would have a secret theme every week to try and include in our answers - one week it was parts of the body, another, it was anything to do with cars and driving..
We'd tell one goofy brother the wrong secret theme and try to suppress our laughter as he manfully tried to weave 'girls names' into his wt answers!!
I wonder whether the wt artists do the same thing for fun and to stave off boredom in their illustrations?
since i faded i've told a few people at work about having been raised in this organization but i found that most people don't really get what it is like at all.
they just focus on not celebrating holidays as if that is the worst thing about growing up jw.
i didn't explain much because it's too much for most people to handle.
