i am surprised no one has mentioned what is going on in canada.. maybe they have but i missed it.
so here are some of the facts as i know them.
ontario only.. sault st. marie had their six congregations whittled down to two.
It's gotta have some kind of negative psychological effect on those jw's who contributed their cash, labor, and supplies to build "their" local kh or assembly hall and then see it sold off and not even a proper 'thank you"!
I'd be thinkin', "is god really that broke?"

i'm going to be the first and throw this out there for others but, from careful study of the scriptures i've found a loophole that even adam who was perfect at the time missed!
i'm sure everyone has heard the conundrum about ,"can god create a rock he can't lift?
" and if he can't create one he can't lift, then god cannot do everything" well that doesn't really matter since we know jehovah says himself he cannot lie right?
Really hard to swallow that what one man supposedly did in the garden of eden thousands and thousands of years ago could possibly effect the entire universe!
dubstepped said it right!

hi , would someone help me please with some info about the nwt .
during my study time l have been reading john 1:1-14 and colossians 1:15-17 .
both these passages indicate that jesus was not created as the wt asserts .
Of course the bible writings are ambiguous as are all works of myth and fantasy!
"Let the reader use discernment" so sayth the bible.

There seems to be a near unanimous unwillingness among the faithful to say anything about what they are seeing happening right in front of their eyes. It's a very apparent downsizing of the organization. Shhhhhh if we don't say it out-loud or admit it, it may not be true! This organization no longer has a viable product to sell (magazines, books, bibles) any longer in this digital age. So they are running out of money! The burn rate on their funds will soon catch up and it will be a matter of going to a tithe per person. IMHO!

i notice the friends are in an anne frank attic instead of a boarded up basement this time.. the giving to ones in need pic shows literature and bible, but no food or money.
ToesUp--------They would all kill each other over who is the "most spiritual in the land." lol
I can imagine them posting a Watchtower on the wall of the bunker and then standing in front of it chanting, "watchtower, watchtower on the wall, who of us is the most righteous of all".

good move or bad?

The middle east is consistently the most radical war torn area on earth and has been since the beginning of history. It is astounding how much governments are willing to pay for oil!
The Iranians and Iraqis are born into a radical society with no choice of how to believe just like many of us jw's were born in's. We don't have to agree with their way of life or beliefs but at least we understand why they are like they are. Willing to give up their life for some invisible shy daddy.

Lately the gb has been showing jw's how and where to hide during the 'great tribulation'. The attic, the bunker, or running through the forest to avoid the storm troopers.
What happened the the bible admonition to 'raise yourselves erect and to lift up your heads because your deliverance is getting near'?
Me thinks that deliverance is not getting near!

...with monkey shoulder whisky as the "faithful slave's" whisky of choice... the governing body wants to associate the whisky's logo with jw judicial committees.. .
When I was a PIMO elder for several years before my successful fade, I had to self medicate BEFORE meetings! Truth. I would take a few shots of vodka and then put another shot in my water bottle that I took to the meeting just to keep the glow going! No liquor breath with vodka and I'm certain that no one ever suspected that I was feeling good. It made the situation tolerable until it didn't!

i was just wondering this morning about all the kingdom halls and branches being sold to "babylon the great" and other businesses.
every single kingdom hall and bethel branch that has been sold was "dedicated to jehovah" by the watchtower corporation.
a special meeting with a guest speaker gives a talk and then offers a prayer dedicating the building to yhwh.
When they need the money, all bets are off!
