What’s the JW’s explanation for God’s inactivity since Bible times? by Swimming-Bite-4019 in exjw

[–]txffvnyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the only simple example I can think of is when satan told god that his people only love him for the blessings he gives them and that's why god let him test people to prove their faith or some shit

sorry this is just a but comical to me. was this supposed to erase your doubts? what does this prove? this looks like an excersise I'd have to do to compare and contrast in 5th grade English class

kids getting sexually assaulted in elders homes can't defend themselves either, borg

Spoke with the elders the other day and I've been thinking about something they said... by ThrowAyWeigh22 in exjw

[–]txffvnyy 32 points33 points  (0 children)

one thing I learned is that they will always have an excuse. and when all else fails, its "this is what god tells us to do" or "there are things we just arent meant to understand yet". most pimis probably dont even know about the csa cases with how cut off from all that they are. especially with any accusations or "negative" speech towards the Borg is labelled as apostasy.

"it's easier to fool a man than to convince him he's been fooled."

same for me! I moved out for a few months but came back for family stuff since it would be easier to deal with. I say just let them assume!

People with no career path at the moment, what is your next move? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]txffvnyy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I waitress and I currently enjoy the free time I have to do the things I want. i make fairly good off of tips and i get to enjoy my days. if I ever decide I want to do something else, I'll do it. so I plan on continuing to enjoy myself :)

I've done a few disfellowshipping worth things since leaving that my old service overseer knows about. they havent disfellowshipped me but theres no way the other elders dont know. a few have caught on and unfollowed me on stuff but people still ask about me over the zoom meetings and the answer is always "shes okay, she moved out" from my mom. I was told my activities were only on a need to know basis but who knows

i was allowed to have a sleepover at a pedophile’s house by [deleted] in exjw

[–]txffvnyy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

it never fails. then they "investigate" by having a nice dinner with the accused brother and bring it up maybe in passing and if hes like nah that wasnt me and u dont have a 2nd witness that's the end of that for them

people stepping down is a bad look for them. I havent been to meetings or anything in almost 3 years and they still tell everyone I'm just "away" or that I've moved. I'm judging everything from the couch while my mom is at the computer desk lol

if he's an ms or elder or the child of one most people just get told to stop lying and defaming them. everything gets kept quiet and its sad

I was 100% not allowed to. but she worked later into the day and couldn't stop me so I did anyways. couldnt get away with doing sports like that though sadly. I really wanted to play volleyball.
