  Congregation Pledge Disgusted Elder

  by rrb2016 in

  1. forum
  2. suggestions

  at the meeting the other night, the elder who had to read the announcements, which included the $$ info for the new donation arrangement seemed downright disgusted as he read the announcements and asked for the vote.

  he said, "well, here is another organizational change" as he read the letter about the discontinuation of the 2nd meeting during co visit.

  then after they voted, he said if you have any questions ask this other elder as if he wanted nothing to do with it.

  anyone else get the distinct impression that jws are being worked up into a frenzy with all the changes and activity nowadays?

  by the end of august, there will have been four campaigns inside of a year.

  one last november, a memorial campaign, a convention campaign and an advertise jw.org campaign.. then there's the conventions with all the hooplah around that with all the video, and the aggrandizement of synchronized gb talks.

  oh my goodness, i'm so angry i can't even speak!

  "women who complained that former jehovahs witness elder jonathan rose, 40, had molested them as children relived their nightmares in front of him after he was released from jail".

  I was thinking the new assembly program may be another nail in the coffin.

  by Crazyguy in

  when i was young and wanted to meet other young ones and girls we would look forward to the district assemblies, even the 2 day circuit assemblies weren't to bad and we would go to other ones we were not assigned to in order to meet new ones.

  with this new program of one days and the district assemblies possibly going to 1days this looks to me like it will be much harder for kids looking for mates to find any.

  i hope this means that many will mary outside the truff and be another nail in their coffin.

  Maybe they aren't thinking they will be around for another (overlapping) generation. So, who cares if they find mates? Remember, it's all about the $$$$$$

  AWAKE! May 22, 1969 Page 30

  Watching the World: Blasts Vatican “Hypocrisy”

  ”Professor Harvey Cox of the Harvard University Divinity School told some 4,000 prelates, priests, students and scholars from more than 9 countries that the Roman Catholic Church is helping foster unbelief. Cox Said “Perhaps the major reason for the unbelief in our times is not that people find the Gospel incredible but that they find the Church incredible.“ He also stated “A Church that is not able to take a firm stand against war….a Church that preaches poverty but continue to accumulate real estate is not a Church which deserves to be believed.“

  Final post I can't come to this forum anymore!

  by hoser in

  i have come to the conclusion that posting here and visiting this site is not healthy for me anymore.

  i just get angry and upset when i read all the stories of injustice and corruption that go on in the jehovahs witness religion.

  they are true no doubt, as i have personally experienced many injustices and abuses in my life from being a witness.
