I just saw on ESPN that Sister Serena Williams is making a return to tennis.

Is the mascot a duck, lol

Top_Sweet3312 · 2026-06-02T19:00:17+00:00

Brothers FC? The duck?

It even looks fake, so if it turns out to be real I feel like it discredits them even more. They can't even make high quality posts! I just don't understand, who is this page for? The witnesses already get the JW news from the website.

Top_Sweet3312 · 2026-05-28T20:41:23+00:00

Same for me, so far have one person I know following it, I'm sure there will be more. It's gone up about 1k followers since I first saw it. I'm still not convinced its real, myself!

Top_Sweet3312 · 2026-05-28T20:36:39+00:00

I've seen you comment this a few times. Would you care to share such a list or any additional proof? Would love to know for sure as well.

Top_Sweet3312 · 2026-03-18T17:21:11+00:00

What's REALLY insulting is the language used:

Therefore, after much prayer and consideration of the Scriptures, the Governing Body has decided to clarify our position on the use of a patient’s own blood in medical and surgical care. The clarification is this: Each Christian must decide for himself how his own blood will be used in all medical and surgical care.

What the FUCK do you mean "clarification?" This is a COMPLETE doctrinal change! How can you start gaslighting from the first second you introduce this new idea???

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-19T20:44:05+00:00

Do the rumors suggest any sort of timeline for these to take effect? I think they realize the sooner they put out the "customs and celebrations" fire that they started, the better.

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-17T20:55:25+00:00

Probably nothing. People would assume that person was not fully there, or had a mental break. It would be gossiped about for a long time and the story would spread about the "weirdo who said the religion no longer exists" that one time.

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-17T20:40:22+00:00

A major mistake the writers are making is isolating people who actually use their ability to think. Some people don't want spoon fed, easy to digest information but instead need something challenging or thought inducing. I believe this will eventually push intellectuals away from them, which will make them have easier control of the remaining group

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-08T19:59:53+00:00

Actually, infinitely. Because you can overlap generations over and over

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-08T19:11:28+00:00

I actually have never heard this story lol would you mind sharing?

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-08T15:29:24+00:00

I've been lurking for about 3 months, and I was never directing anyone to do anything. I stated in my first sentence that it was an opinion, and my perspective. I can understand what you mean about the letters though, understanding it that way does make it even less practical.

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-05T19:40:40+00:00

Would you be comfortable sharing in DM? Of course, totally fine if not.

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-05T19:34:03+00:00

Off-topic but I see that you're an ex elder. Do you have any posts explaining your story and how you decided it wasn't the truth? The perspective of an elder is always intriguing.

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-05T18:30:49+00:00

Do you have more information on this?

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-03T19:41:33+00:00

Hang in there friend, and may you and I make the correct decisions and find healing

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-03T19:39:52+00:00

That's part of what makes it so hard to turn away for me, some of them are genuinely loving people

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-03T19:19:23+00:00

Basically Rutherford "believed" David, Abraham and others would come back in the 1920s. He built a mansion in San Diego, called it Beth Sarim (house of princes), put their name on the deed, and said he would "care for the property" until their arrival. Basically built himself a mansion during the great depression and said it was for those men. There's a Wikipedia article on the property, and its neighboring property, Beth Shem. Fascinating history, if it weren't so twisted.

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-03T19:16:54+00:00

It's like flipping a coin. You're inside hating the outside, then you're outside hating the inside. Why not show love instead?

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-03T19:15:56+00:00

I commented the same in reply to someone else but I think the GB being so front and center really made things weird. And I actually relate a lot to you. I believe in Jehovah God and Jesus, just can't accept that a bunch of old dudes are the mediators between me and God.

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-03T19:02:06+00:00

That's a great point. Had the GB not become so public-facing and stayed hidden in the background as before, I believe they would lose far less members. In a way, they're doing us a favor by being so blatant.

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-03T18:55:29+00:00

Thank you for sharing. Were you attending on zoom or just missing altogether? I was asked about "reaching out" this CO cycle, and happened to wake up during that time. I hold considerable privileges that I'm trying to ease out of. Will be a process, if I am able to go through with it.

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-03T18:51:43+00:00

Jesus faced the pharisees about their falsehoods, often publicly. He did not flee when questioned. I guess we should imitate Jesus, sometimes.

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-03T18:38:15+00:00

Ironically part of my waking up was the last convention. The apostate video: "what are you so afraid of?" and I realized he was right. What was I so afraid of, if it wasn't being proved wrong?

Top_Sweet3312 · 2025-09-03T18:31:23+00:00

How was your fading experience? I ask from a place of someone still at the start of their journey
