  It's All About Tablets

  by metatron in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  well, that seems to be the latest hot thing amoung witnesses.

  everybody buys a tablet.

  even the poor families that eat carb heavy meals are gettin' em.. maybe they can't afford the latest apple product like the maxi/mini pad or whatever they're calling it these days so a trip to ebay or overstock.com fills the bill.. use it instead of a songbook.

  @newdawnfades that's what I think about all the time. One contradictary statement after another and JWs just can't see it.

  weird: passing around literature fragments in prison

  by Magnum in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i dont have any specific references, but over the years i remember reading in the mags and hearing in talks stories of imprisoned jws who would somehow get a piece of a page of a jw magazine or an article or something like that and pass it around and get spiritually nourished by it as if it almost had a magical or supernatural nature.

  does anybody else remember such?.

  i always thought it just didnt make sense.

  What the f**k?????????????????????????????????????? This is the most blatant attempt at fearmongering that I've seen the Watchtower engage in during my lifetime.

  What I find wrong with this peice of propaganda:

  1. They're too fleshy, come on...during hard times people will be starving and thin as hell.

  2. Clothes and skin too clean: these are supposedly the worst times that humans have ever been through, who says there will be water.

  3. If times are that rough won't it be common to be sporting a beard ranging from rough stubble to Taliban level facial hair? Being clean shaven may be much harder, and being clean shaven will probably alert onlookers that you have access to resources that could make their lives easier. In other words you will become a target.

  4. Where are the ak-47s? Praying won't stop robberies, shootings, and rapes when SHTF.

  5. Electricity as evidenced by the light bulbs. It's the damn great tribulation. What's to guarantee that there will be electricity in homes. If not diesel generators are noisey, solar panels will be visible from outside, not much hiding there.

  6. Meetings = infection risk centers. In times of societal collapse; disaster zones, war zones (see the polio outbreak in Syria) there is often outbreak of disease and gatherings are discouraged / prohibted.

  PS: Are they appealing to preppers now?

  Controversial Opinion: Why the web site campaign is actually brilliant

  by Apognophos in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  there's a lot of talk right now about how stupid it is to have jws hand out leaflets with urls on them.

  "why go to someone's door to tell them they can visit a web site that lets them ask for someone to come to their door?

  " well, i'm sorry, but i have to weigh in with a contrary opinion here on how clever the society is.

  Work of hackers? (I wish that too )

  Was it pulled offline on purpose so that they can brag "hey we had so much traffic on the 12th of August 2014 that the site was offline for a short while!" ?

  It started around 3 years ago. As a born-in I got curious and decided to Google "Jehovah's Witnesses" after years of being told not to Google "Jehovah's Witnesses". This was one of the first sites I visited, saw that many of the people posting here had allot of the same doubts I had and were viewing things the way I did. I felt very guilty at first, still believed in demunz and was sweating the whole time thinking that they would come out of the screen and grab me. After a while I began to think more rationally and logically about life, got a renewed interest in science and propaganda, and realised that the Watchtower is just making educated guesses like everyone else, and enforces dependency through the use of disfellowshipping and shunning etc. I got the courage to sign up around 2 years ago and visit this site every day!
