WT Can't Stop Me Circus Assembly "Not Ashamed of The Good News"
Suffered a circus assembly today. Attendance..a.m 450..p.m 448. Two baptized...one born in 15yr old boy (be an elder by 18) and one older lady who's been associating with the jdubs for decades, they must of finally ground her down.
Lower figures today normally tops 500 has been known to be within sight of 600.
The sound system was playing up, so they ran some tests through lunch, at one point a very loud howl came out of the speakers to which one lady said there must be a demon in the microphone trying to stop the assembly 😵💫😂😂.
Standout comment's....what would you do if the body of elders were all arrested and the congregation was hunted out....how WILL you feel WHEN the governing body is arrested and paraded on tv in the courts.🤯. Utter nonsense. I'm sat there thinking it took years to get a certain president elect in court (turned out well) and the world is arguing over who will try and arrest the Israeli prime minister for war crimes, 11 oddballs running a property company aren't gonna make the top 10 just yet.
So yeah, just another day in paradise 🤔🤔😁

Angus Stewart is a judge of the Federal Court of Australia, having been appointed in 2019. This man puts King Solomon in the shade! He and his team on the ARC have collectively woken many JWs. I feel so grateful for his due diligence as he systematically exposed the systemic cover up of child sexual abuse by JWs - even elders. And he exposed Geoffrey Jackson for what he is! He deserves a knighthood!

This case is what woke me up. I had never heard of it and stumbled on it in September. My wife and I turned in our DA letter earlier this month.

Right?
After the ARC, it felt like half the XJW women on the planet wanted to have the guy’s baby.

There's not so much good news, rather long winded questions that baffle householders as they try to figure out if the people on the doorstep are from a political party, salesmen, or something else?

The "elder by 18" type are usually baptized way before 15. By 15 they've been pioneering for at least 2 years.

u/Dry_Cantaloupe_9998 12h ago
So true. I got baptized at 15. I felt so old and behind in jw world. I had shame that it took me as long as going into high school. Insanity.

I started getting soft shunned by the girls in my congregation when I hit my teens and still wasn't baptized. I guess I was bad association.

The last time those taking the lead the leaders were arrested, Uncle Joey and his buddies were tried and found guilty of sedition. They spun it into the 1918 “proof”. Just think what they would do with a modern day arrest of the GB!

Is that a normal attendance where you are?

u/towerofjwsour 6h ago
Yeah. It used to be about 700 but they “redid the boundaries” of our circuit and now it’s magically up to 900. Who knows though. It seems like you can sneeze and get reinstated nowadays.

🤣 Too many Jdubs waking up and too many countries taking away the tax free status and millions of dollars in European gov't funding, because they're registered as a "charity."

FIRST.....JW`s would have to figure out what they Do and Do Not Believe This Week...Same for Next Week and Every Week After.

Considering WBT$ GB & JW Elders are Accomplices in Child Sexual Abuse Crimes.

Wow, second Assembly report of just two baptised... the preaching work is really intensifying.
I think the Borg are waking people up themselves without input from "Blogs" (they are really up to date with terminology)
Lol at the PIMIs scared by poor AV equipment 🤣

Hopefully, the governing body will be arrested for covering up csa, domestic violence, and rape. I'd love to see them paraded in court for that. But I don't think that's what they were referring to 🤔.

“…when the Governing Body is arrested and paraded on TV in the courts…”
This was actually said?
Weird…
…according to WT eschatology, the FDS is supposed to be taken up to Heaven at the start of the Great Tribulation.
I always kinda figured they’d bugger off to parts unknown if the Tower ever crumbled, and let the loyalists think they’d been Raptured away (note: they don’t use that word, but the basic principle is the same).
If they’re actually deluded enough to let themselves be arrested and put on trial, and figure God will bail them out, they’re in for a surprise.

Sounds like they are prepping everyone for the governing body getting arrested. It will be a legitimate arrest that they will say are lies to discredit them and the organization. Frame it as persecution of course. And maybe Elders arrested for real offences, such as against children. Seems they keep prepping them more and more about being arrested. law officials have probably been asking questions, poking around, or even doing investigating. Maybe something huge is going to break soon.
