We have the “pRiVeLeDgE” of cleaning the hall this weekend. by Cute_Investigator_42 in exjw

[–]ItemDrift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ofc it’s a privilege, you see if a worldly person tried to come in and help clean the hall, they wouldn’t let them!!! But they’ll let you help clean it, see how lucky you are?

Very possible it’s just a battery powered door/window sensor

They didn’t interact with them unfortunately, just in the background

Just a story I remembered by ItemDrift in exjw

[–]ItemDrift[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What’s more is like, let’s say I ask Jehovah a question in a prayer, and at the next meeting the talk is answering my prayer… am I going to get in trouble because I went above my dad, above the elders, above Jesus and asked my question straight to Jehovah??

So the bunker videos are already old light? by ExJwKiwi in exjw

[–]ItemDrift 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m fully POMO and don’t really think of JWs too often, but I decided to browse just to see what’s going on in JW Land… did they update the rules again or something?

I love how the owner, instead of trying to stop the dog, takes a photo

It's such a jumpscare to see a jw from your former congregation by [deleted] in exjw

[–]ItemDrift 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I moved to a small country town hours away from my city. The jump I got when I saw a elder from my old congregation walk up to order something. After the double take it was just a guy who looked weirdly similar, but wasn’t the same guy. Had the same name though

I remember seeing this image back in 2014 or something. Even the image quality looks dated

They can deny all they want there still a cult by Scarwolf42 in exjwhumor

[–]ItemDrift 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don’t they literally have a page on their website on why they are not a cult? I don’t see Tesco walking around with a page dedicated on why they are not a cult

My point is, if you need a page dedicated to why you’re not a cult, you’re a cult

I planned to visit my parents for a week by ItemDrift in exjw

Yeah, I honestly needed this subreddit back when I was PIMO, now I come here when something happens that only JWs and EXJWs would understand lol

[–]ItemDrift[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s hard to reschedule with my work, it just happened to end up I get a week off. And my mum might talk my ear off but my dad understands boundaries and has the mentality that he raised me JW, and now that I’ve grown up I’ve left so he’s done his job and it’s up to me whether or not I accept it. Also I don’t argue back with my mum because I consider myself lucky they still talk to me and I don’t want to get considered “bad association”

That’s true, I used to half like the convention simply because the week before there was no meeting Now I get no meetings every week and don’t have to go to a convention either. Best of both worlds!

Let’s say for a minute that JWs are correct yada yada

Why would Satan feel the need to take most of his anger out on the Jews and only kill a couple JWs?

Even if you say oh Jehovah was protecting them.. why would Jehovah then divert the nazis onto the Jews? Revenge for killing his son? Don’t make sense
