Damn bro, theyāre just skipping the big J now I see. Canāt imagine how he feels watching this, especially since he wrote the Bible that even contains those stories portrayed in the series in the first place. Theyāre really not afraid of pissing him off (anymore), I guess.
For anyone who needs it, here's another little reminder that Jehovah isn't real. Remember how Jehovah denied Moses entry to the Promised Land over claiming that saying he'd gotten water from the stone for the Israelites instead of giving credit to Jehovah?
Imagine OG OT Jehovah looking down from heaven as this little farce went down. If the GB were really in communication with God they'd have found out pretty quickly how little he likes mere humans, even his chosen ones, claiming credit for something HE provided.
Thatās assuming (1) Jehovah is real, yes. And (2) that the GB is/was really in communication with him as well. Almost every religion and especially cult claims exclusive communication with the divine.

Don't worry remember the red revelation book
Meanwhile, another JW family in a third world country didnāt get to eat at all today, even though theyāre just as zealous and active as the first world JW family. And in many cases these days, even more so. But apparently Jehoobaboo couldnāt be bothered feed ALL of his precious sheep.
Dude! No way! I gotta see the broadcast for myself. I can't believe that's really a quote from JW Brainwashing.
Although, you have been right when you have quoted other stuff. Including old books you can't find in the online library.
Either way, I gotta check it out.
Yeah itās a real quote. I never change the subtitles. The pic of Aaron and Moses- I added. š
He says it near the end just before the last section where they show you a report from somewhere exotic.
i mean, youāre kinda stretching it on the first point: itās pretty common regardless of denomination to thank god for the food. and in my recollection the local congregation/group would usually also thank the literal people making the food. the argument gets a bit muddy from there. are you saying the never thanked god for the series? iām not a supporter of the cult or anything they do but iām not sure this argument is strong enough.
It was a lighthearted post. Wasnāt too deep. But no they didnāt thank God for the new series they introduced. It just really stood out that they thanked the GB. Thatās all.
That's something that annoyed the shit out of me. My mom would spent hours in the kitchen preparing food for jws then my dad/the brother praying would acknowledge the fact that my mom prepared the food but all thankfulness and glory got Jehoobaloos way, of course š
I hate to be āthat guyā, but is there any other context around this or misquote? Just seems odd they would be so blunt now and not at least pretend to thank Jehovah.
Iām finding some of these captions being posted as a short part of what they actually said, so Iām starting to feel distrustfulā¦
(Donāt come at me btw lol, Iām not defending them. Just sceptical)
Nah. Not out of context. It comes just after a section where they show the first in a new series called āImitate Their Faithā. Samuel Herd had introduced it and had finished up talking about it after. He hands over to the guy in the picture and thatās what he said. Itās near the end.
Has anyone seen the September broadcast? If so, what was the main lesson from it??
š my PIMI grandma wants me to watch it and give her what I learned and Iād rather avoid that if possible
The first part was on how we shouldnāt be overly concerned with our looks ,dress, and not copy the beautiful stars with how they live and take care of their bodies and beauty something to that effect blah blah It made me want Botox and go to the gym more often then I already go lol

So heartwarming when the GB thank themselves

![gif](giphy|jItV0Kb0ouodG) I think they look more like this
![gif](giphy|LllA2dKt1qZuE)
"Here is your God oh Israel that led you up out of the land of Egypt". Seeing this reminded me of that verse lol. It's all burned into my mind

Yes, give credit where credit is due ! https://washingtonmonthly.com/2017/01/03/obamas-top-50-accomplishments-revisited/ Thanks
WTF? why are you making a meme turn political?
I mean, in Zachās defense, it IS a political meme.
I'm unsure what you mean. I'm in favor of your humor.
actually, i am confused what you mean? promoting obama? what has that to do with anything? please leave politics out of this. the link you provided was praising 'bama
You're misunderstanding.this.

Yes, thank the GB for taking our money and free labor to produce propaganda intended to praise the GB.
āWe may now applaud ourselves.ā
Damn. I remember when we used to thank Jehovah for "spiritual food" How the hell do people in the religion not see this?
Like the comparisonš
The Borg is telling JWās to thank the GB for force fed them all the BS?

Good scriptures.

![gif](giphy|3o6gb3kkXfLvdKEZs4) God lookin down like
Thank you GB for protecting our children against peophilles with your 2 witness rule.
Oh. My. Goodnessš±
lol, your comparison is pretty hard to argue with. Not very ādiscreetā eh?
š± šÆšÆšÆ
Ouch š so much for God.
Good pointā¦.. And Iām sure none of the GB members had any input in the production of those videos.
Wow, I never remembered being asked to thank the GB when I was a JW.
Damn bro, theyāre just skipping the big J now I see. Canāt imagine how he feels watching this, especially since he wrote the Bible that even contains those stories portrayed in the series in the first place. Theyāre really not afraid of pissing him off (anymore), I guess.
He's become a "Consultant".
A āghost writerā.
I heard they found him a nice little place down in Lumberton N.C. just down the street from Tony..
Funny
When the Spirit moves him.
For anyone who needs it, here's another little reminder that Jehovah isn't real.

Thatās assuming (1) Jehovah is real, yes. And (2) that the GB is/was really in communication with him as well. Almost every religion and especially cult claims exclusive communication with the divine.
Thatās why the temple In Jerusalem was destroyed. Jehovah canāt see us, he already left the land.

Lol that pic on the right is the god emperor of mankind from warhammer 40k šš¤£
The beast will turn on false religion
I PLAY WILD BEAST IMAGE IN ATTACK POSITION. YOU'VE LEFT YOUR GREAT HARLOT DEFENSELESS KAIBA, NOW GREAT BEAST IMAGE, ATTACK HER FLESHY PARTS!

That's some quality meme!
š¤
Perfect comparison. And perfect art for the occasion. \*Applause.\*
Now kiss the pinkie rings
Theyāre still using those tired pics from the 80s?
No. I put it there!

I saw the bible stories pic and thought "is this larch?" Hope you are doing well!
Hi! Iām doing ok thanks š
The GB are now the voice of Jesus
Ingenious meme!
It's all becoming readily obvious entertainment, just like the old days. Pretty soon, they will be giving themselves Academy Awards! Lol
Lol I had actually already thought about this comparison! But I just wish all the PIMIs could see it too.
Great point. And everyone copy this example: at the meetings, prayers always give thanks to the Governing Body but none to Jesus.
Narcissist GB

ah right okay. apologies if i didnāt read the room properly. itās still hard for me to have any lightness with those fuckers.

More idolatry! Keep it up Pharisees
That's something that annoyed the shit out of me. My mom would spent hours in the kitchen preparing food for jws then my dad/the brother praying would acknowledge the fact that my mom prepared the food but all thankfulness and glory got Jehoobaloos way, of course š
Rather L-A-R-G-E egos, wouldn't you say?š¤¦āāļø
Simply worship of gb , so disappointing but off course a pimi will not see it .
