that no one on the earth gets to see God and Christ. They're such liars.
But it is true. No one on earth gets to see God and Christ. If you see it differently, it does not make you a liar but someone who believes differently.

What "message" does the J.W Org. have to offer that will attract new members ?
by Phizzy inthe message they have been pushing for 150 years or so is "the end is near !"..
in the educated, civilised world, people think " yea ?
maybe because of economic meltdown exacerbated by climate change, but not from some intervention by a non-existent god".. "would you like a free bible study ?

They are a real estate company now, but to keep the system going they need a base of volunteers.
I expect them to open a new specific date to have some short-term momentum and would assume 2034, 120 years from 1914.
Especially, in times of crisis, people are vulnerable for conspiracies and strange cults. We see it all around, also in the western world.

I heard that McDonald's is not making their main profit from burgers and fries but from real estate. It seems the Watchtower has copied their business model. As far as I know they also charge license fees from the branch offices to transfer money.

The song „Forward, You Witnesses“ contains the chorus:
„Then, forward, you Witnesses, ever strong of heart!
Rejoice that in God’s work you too may have a part!
Go tell far and wide God’s new order is near,
That e’er long its rich blessings will be here!“
In the German version the last line reads (translated):
„ Soon comes blessing through the new order.“

Telling People You Used To Be A JW
by JW_Rogue insince 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.

I used to tell people I was raised in this cult as fourth generation and left when I felt that it is just a bucket of bullshit with too high a price for me and my family. Usually, they show some respect for that. But I have stopped telling people.

It seems to be automatically translated to German. Wording and form of adress is not coherent with standard JW style.

Conversion Therapy for Gay Bethelites in Poland (?)
by Jensus inrecently, there was a rather accurate report on jw on german tv station "sat1".
you find it on their streaming service joyn.. https://www.joyn.de/serien/jenseits-des-glaubens-zwischen-religion-und-verblendung/1-2-die-zeugen-jehovas.
there was one piece of information that was new for me: a former bethelite explained that he realized that he was gay.

Since Alex states that these individuals took the costs, I doubt it was paid by Bethel. Also, no health insurance would pay for this. But I also doubt that a Bethel Elder would give such an advice without the knowledge of the higher-ups. And it was an international approach that led to the US.
However, I posted this because I assumed there might be others here who know about any details. It was the first time, I heard about this and the rest of the broadcast was quite accurate.
