  Are JW's inflating their numbers?

  by thedepressedsoul in

  2. bible

  it can be anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes!

  as long as you've had a literature discussion three times, you can start counting it as a study.

  first, they say you can now count only 15 minutes a month.

  i was discussing this topic with two friends of mine, ex jws, a few nights ago.

  i think it would be boring after a while.

  you can't smoke, have to drink with moderation (difficult in europe with all the wines).

  An experience at Bethel

  by joe134cd in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i was just thinking of something i observed on a visit to bethel some years back, that at the time struck me as odd, but now that i look back on it, it might be revealing about their financial situation.

  please feel free to agree/disagree with me and also bear in mind this is some years back so my memory may be sketchey.

  i remember walking into the front entrance of the bethel to do a tour.

  If the Watchtower truly collapsed, how would you deal with your JW relatives?

  by nicolaou in

  imagine the best case scenario.

  the watchtower society implodes from within even making final printed admissions that it is voluntarily dismantling it's mission and legally dissolving the corporations.

  oh happy day!

  Book Burning and other burning of materials done by JW. Any experiences Please post

  by adjusted knowledge in

  2. friends

  as a very young child i have memories of several book burnings done by jw families.

  it wasn't something arranged by the congregation, but elders did participate in it.

  it was actually scary for me as a child of only about 8 years old.

  If They Stopped Shunning Tomorrow?

  by cofty in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  imagine that the cult decided to stop shunning family members on the proviso that the dfd person was not actively trying to attack the cult.. (please don't debate whether or not this is likely - it's hypothetical).

  how would you respond to your family?.

  personally i think i would be less than cooperative.

  Excuses to miss the meeting that won't raise suspicion of a fade

  by kairos in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the first step to fading is to begin missing the meetings.. "if" anyone misses you, a quality excuse must be at the ready.

  this will produce empathy toward you as opposed to suspicion.. 1. car problems ( don't mention that you caused them ).

  2. stuck on the phone resolving insurance, billing, etc issues.. 3. sick ( of the meetings ).

  Does Tithing at Church Count as a Charitable Donation?

  by OrphanCrow in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it has been interesting to see the shift in financial strategies that the wts is implementing recently.

  from reading recent threads, it appears like 'they' are adopting a tithing donation system, similar to what is practised in "those wicked churches of christendoom".

  i am curious as to who it is that stands to benefit the most tax wise in this recent shift.
