  We had a sister in our old hall that was notorious for beating her kids with a wooden spoon for some of the most ridiculous things. I think I was in my early 20's when one time, she took her 6 month old baby back and beat it with the spoon. When my mom found out she walked up to that sister, asked her for her spoon and proceeded to slap her right across her face! It was glorious! My mom then told her if she ever sees her with that spoon she would and I quote, "beat the living shit out of her." Not a single elder tried to interfere

  How Can You Recognize True Worship?

  2. bible

  had to laugh when i read this in the good news from god publication on the website.. https://www.jw.org/en/publications/books/good-news-from-god/recognize-true-worshippers/.

  basically, watchtower just rattling of a list of things they (claim) to do when trying to identify "true" worship.. the closing question though, "which religion bases all its teachings on god’s word, honors god’s name, and proclaims god’s kingdom as mankind’s only hope?

  which group practices love and shuns war?

  Magic

  the april 2019 study edition page 20 has an article on resisting wicked spirits.

  it says "magic refers to practices associated with the occult, or the supernatural.

  it can include curses and the casting or breaking of spells.

  I can relate pale.emperor. I had an overzealous elder once go batshit crazy because I did a card trick at a get together. Simple trick a 5 year old could do, but the dumbass was yelling I was inviting demons into our congregation. I was 18 at the time and not baptized. Should have been a HUGE warning sign.

  Do You For The Most Part Trust The News Media?

  the media is very powerful.

  many news people just want to get a scoop even if their breaking story isn’t checked out for accuracy.

  some journalists are precise and double check whatever they are reporting.

  Do You See "The Elephant In The Room" At This JW Regional Convention?

  by JW GoneBad in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  someone posted this image on their facebook page of a recent jw rc showing a rather petite group of baptismal candidates.

  notice there are nearly 75 seats (5 rows) reserved for the occasion.

  by my count...it looks like between 17 to 19 were baptized...with total attendance of 6,000. the youngest among them looks like between 9 and 11 years old.

  That's an older video. I remember that was from around 2012 or 13? I believe in California. She was definitely mentally ill. I remember it was posted all over Facebook at the time.

  kingdom halls

  this weeks meeting features a video about maintaining kingdom halls.

  it mentions a few times, how kh belong to jehovah, and are dedicated to him.. anybody ever wondered, if they belong to jehovah, how come, they are being sold all the time?

  can you give something to jehovah and then take it back?

  I think it becomes undedicated when an apostate enters the front door, or maybe when a sister wearing pants enters the building?

  • My sister stated that at an April Assembly she visited, they stated the money they were asking for included helping those in foreign lands building KH's and AH's.

    I would like comments please on the lack of transparency regarding funds collected at circuit assemblies. A elder who I worked for said he doesn't go to the lunch time elders meeting as they aren't given full details either and just a waste of time.

    Do they have a budget that is set. I mean at last weekends one day assembly on "being bold " They were saying it will cost £6000 and so keep giving. Work that out if there are 2 assemblies a weekend. The assembly hall is their own.

  Ladies First

  by snugglebunny in

  i know a lady who says she feels demeaned if a man walks on the outside or opens a door for her or stands aside to let her pass.

  i just think it's good manners.

  being a gentleman has nothing to do with equality in my opinion..

  Just my 2 cents...stop trying to compare who has it worse, JW males or females. It's like comparing apples to oranges. They are BOTH in a fucken cult that in every situation it can, makes you feel like shit. Being a male, I have no idea how the sisters made it thru each day. And as a brother, I wanted to just say "fuck it, or fuck you" at almost every meeting because of the endless bullshit they put me thru. It's an organization that beats you down relentlessly and then asks you to do more.
