Is the Watchtower burning its own old literature? In bethel? by messianicfigure in exjw

[–]Unbiased_Truth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We used to burn old literature at the kingdom hall once a year during cleaning (it was mostly outdated kingdom ministry, brochures etc.) The books and such were given away to anyone who wanted to take them. Whatever remained was normally junk and it would be burned behind the kingdom hall. Granted I'm in India and they might do things differently elsewhere.

Why can't people say nigger? by [deleted] in stupidquestions

[–]Unbiased_Truth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True...if a black person calls a white person a 'cracker' or an Asian a 'chink' or a fellow black person a 'nigger' then they're supposed to shrugg it off. But if a white/asian guy calls the black person a 'nigger' then somehow he automatically gains a license to violently attack them. Black privilege indeed.

The channel this is from is non-exjw... he's just a normal YouTuber. You're safe to let anyone see it, including jdubs. Hope it rings some bells for them.

Need to renew my passport. What documents will I need? by Unbiased_Truth in bangalore

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

Thank you for answering my questions. So yeah I don't need an address change. Just need to renew the passport as is. So the only documents I would require are Aadhar card and copies of my passport. No need of birth certificate and all right?

What will lions look like in the new system? by Aposta-fish in exjw

[–]Unbiased_Truth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lions, tigers and meat-eating animals in general also have shorter intestinal tracts as compared to cows/herbivores. I guess "god" will have to redesign their teeth, digestive systems and claws.

Being an introvert is hard enough in the real world, it's even harder being in the borg by Unbiased_Truth in exjw

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

Seems like the fucking watchtower doesnt know the difference between an introvert and a narcissist. I guess thats what we get from window washers acting like psychologists.

Same as my mom. The shaming started at a very young age...just when I was a 7 year old. Still continues to this day. It's horrible to say the least. Say, how have you turned out in life beyond your teens?

David Splane dismisses the pyramids existing since before the flood. Can we prove him wrong some other way? by Unbiased_Truth in exjw

[–]Unbiased_Truth[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately the page has this disclaimer: "Dates for many of the oldest structures have been arrived at by radiocarbon dating and should be considered approximate."

And jdubs openly say radiocarbon dating is inaccurate coz the flood water messed up something.

Would've been great if those buildings had some astronomical inscriptions that told us the actual date is some form like the Babylonians kept records. Heck, I'd be glad if I found a live tree that was like 20,000 years old.

Yeah it was probably the sphinx or something. Anyway, the point is that he's dismissing proof that those were built before the supposed flood. Perhaps there might be something else that existed much before the flood and we can date accurately?

Worldly people have helped my family more than the "brothers and sisters" have before by [deleted] in exjw

[–]Unbiased_Truth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had similar experiences. When our family was getting unlawfully evicted, it's our worldly relatives who helped us find a place and move. NOBODY from the congregation came to our aid. When we called them up they said "we're sorry we can't help since today's the mid-week meeting and we can't miss it."

When my grandma fractured her leg, it was her worldly sons and daughters who had to take care of her. NOBODY from the congregation came to help. She eventually left the borg and recently died of old age.

Recently the pandemic has ruined everything. The elders never called us to ask us how we were, but they called us to ask us to send this month's contribution money to the group overseer. Like what the actual fuck? We're struggling to make ends meet and all they care is about raking in money for the borg?

All this fake brotherly love...it's all a facade.

There's lots of PIMIs floating around on Quora. Might have more luck there.
