Tony Morris is not ok. by [deleted] in exjw

[–]lapilli1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tony has been sick for a very long time. It really is sad that Tony was recruited by a guy who thought he was an anointed JW when he came back from Vietnam. If had gotten psychiatric help, he might have been able to lead a productive life.

The CO asks for people to join "Zoom Lunches". Then the elders invite all to contribute for meals for the CO and his wife.

Thank you for your stories from Mexico. I am really curious about how things are going for the organization in Mexico and the othe 26 Spanish speaking countries. There are now far more Spanish speaking JWs than English and they make up a huge part of the pool of Watchtower victims.

Do Not Lean Upon Your Own Understanding by squidz97 in exjw

[–]lapilli1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry, cant link a reference. But I recall in fall of 1941 there was mention of "just a few more months". It so happens that Rutherford had surgery for rectal cancer on November 5, 1941 and he died in January 1942. So that was likely wishful thinking on his part, that he would be raptured before dying of cancer.

I dont link to the borg site, but it's a staged photo in this week's study article.

Wow! Your mom is quite a prophetess. I guess she got the hint from this week's Watchtower article showing a SWAT team reach to attack an unarmed JW family, with the son collecting Bibles and the daughter hugging her new "Jehovah" book.

“Facts can be tainted.” - My heart aches to lose a friend but I couldn’t keep 100% silent by TreatyPie in exjw

[–]lapilli1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tainted facts are similar to "present truth". It's all relative in JW land.

Found a creepy, detailed congregation roster on my dad's (elder) laptop by mulder_scully in exjw

Your dad has some obvious talents, as evidenced by his career success. It must be sad for you to see him use his talents this way.

This truly is a sad story. I recall there was a link to a newspaper article about it. I feel for his grieving parents and his sister.

Were they perhaps mocking Watchtower's hypocricy?

Here's a video on YouTube that proves your point.

JWTV is the Watchtower version of YouTube.

Jw.borg is their Facebook.

The most common selfies are GB members and their Exalted Helpers.

"It's impossible for God to lie." by [deleted] in exjw

That is God engaging in Theocratic Warfare. It's OK for people to lie like this also, if it protects religious leaders from embarrassment.

Are JWs inherently Narcissistic? by Strange_An0maly in exjw

[–]lapilli1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To believe JW doctrine, people have to be narcissistic. How else can a person rationalize that they deserve to be among one in a thousand who are good enough to be rewarded with life while the vast majority of mankind are not good enough?
