  Beards

  so i started growing a beard 2 weeks ago and i am making some nice progress.

  it has been noticed by many in my workplace and they give me great compliments.

  my skin would get all bumpy from the constant shaving and i am so glad to be done with that form of cult control.. last year (i was pimo then) i worked in the video department at the regional convention.

  When I was undergoing Bible study in India, I went to the convention for the first time with a one day beard. At the convention my BS conductor asked me why I wasn’t clean shaven. Hell... I should have recognized this is a tight control cult. But no knowledge about cults then

  When I arrived in USA, I went to the FS without wearing a tie. Immediately the FS conductor gave his spare tie to me and told to wear it.

  Actually in India, nobody wears a tie out in FS and most JW men wont even tuck in their shirts for the meetings, FS and assemblies. It’s a culture thing and also due to poor economic conditions.

  Satan Hurled Out in 1914 - Will They Say It Was Never Taught?

  by Anna Marina in

  1. watchtower

  wbts rewrites/carefully edits their own history.

  since 2005, i have been through a lot with with wbts.

  recently i came across a suggestions that they will start denying that they ever said satan was hurled out of heaven in 1914.. in my experience, it is one doctrine many ordinary members are clear about - you ask them what supposedly took place in 1914 and they'll say, "satan was hurled out of heaven, therefore world war i started.".

  Seems Satan was cast out of heaven who started WW1

  And then his comrades were cast out of heaven, in an order that started WW2, Vietnam war, gulf war and so on....

  As if there hadnt been war at all before the first cast out.

  And what a loving god - who casts out the devils to earth - instead of confining them in the billions of un inhabited stars and planets out there, or destroying them totally.

  Jehovah, Jehovah, Jehovah

  my pimi wife listens to a lot of the meetings on the phone with the speaker on.

  when i am watching tv i hear the meetings in the background.

  i just cringe with how a witless can't give a comment without having said jehovah at least two times.

  How can you have a personal relationship with someone you can't see and doesn't talk to you?

  That is why some neuro experts call religion as a severe neurological Disorder.

  Governing Body - Time in Ministry

  by Peeringin in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  is there any transparency in how many hours on the ministry the governing body members do on the ministry?

  by this i mean the physical act of going door to door in their area.

  i guess it is plausible that they would count overseas trips and working on publications as part of their ministry, but this is not what they encourage from the jw on the street.. is it possible for a gb member to be reproved or otherwise for not going out in service?

  Most of the GB know its a scam they are running and FS is utter non-sense. So they would have their own excuses not to go door to door. Like pretending to be terribly busy…

  Everyone in a Cult, Doesn't Know They Are in a Cult

  by The Bethelite in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  that's the one thing they all have in common.

  because as soon as you are aware that you are in one, you would of course leave it,.

  so millions of people all over the world are in them and but of course are ignorant of this fact.. i was asked many times over the years in field service, the question.

  No cult member would believe they are in a cult. They don’t know the real attributes of a cult, else why would they be entrapped in a cult.

  All cults have a basic common thread. Us verse them. Meaning, we are special and god protected. The world is evil. If you leave, you would be destroyed.

  What is the inside info on "Reasoning From the Scriptures?"

  by stillin in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i understand why the witnesses won't actually "reason" from the scriptures; because they will have to come to grips with the fact that others have their own reasons, scripture-based, for believing differently than the jw's.. the "reasoning" book was supposed to arm the r&f with solid scriptural backing that could withstand most in-depth conversations.

  so, why is it gathering dust now?

  was there some doctrinal issue specifically?.

  I understand why the Witnesses won't actually "reason" from the scriptures

  Even if they reason out from the 'scriptures', how would they (or anyone) reason out about...

  Stoning to death a man who picked stciks on the Sabbath

  Stoning a rebellious Son to death...

  Genocide for silly reasons.....

  Bible is a book written mostly by psychopaths and trying to reason out would make us one.

  When a person gets to the stage of Baptism, I don’t think he/she would ever mind about any questions asked in the Baptism talk. Because they are totally brainwashed and ready to accept anything from "Gods Organization" at that point.

  Baptism Question: Would you stone to death any person, including your close relatives, that disagrees with Gods organization.

  I am affirmative that the answer would be yes for the above

  They wont bother, even if that man is their disfellowshipped father.

  Even if they had tried to help him they would have placed him a magazine. Thats what HELP means in the JW world.
