    HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMANDA AND WELCOME TO THE FORUM!

    You're preaching to the choir! Most all of us are familiar w/their teachings.

    You won't get booted off because you're expressing yourself as long as you read the guidelines for posting.

    Hope to hear more from you.

    Ok, so I then went online to find out more about JW's.

    Wow, that’s very encouraging! Good research and reasoning!

    Amanda - we are mostly former Jehovah's witnesses here. You know, the ones that get shunned and kicked out for thinking for ourselves?

    This forum is all about all the wrongs you mention and much more. Stick around though, I like your spunk. If ya' wanta spout to the witnesses, you can find the address on your tract, and send them a nice letter. Then post it here if you like and we will all gather around the campfire and read it together.

    Welcome to the thinking side of the Witness [former] minds.

    Hi Amanda, and welcome. I'm glad you started this topic. Perfect timing!

    Just moments ago, I sent the tract to my friend who's entering the priesthood, and asked for his response.
    My "bad association" with him was one of the reasons the Jehovah's Witnesses ended my study with them.

    Here's what I said:

    "I've attached Kingdom News #37, THE END OF FALSE RELIGION IS NEAR. Each JW "publisher" gets 50 ?tracts to distribute, which is supposed to cover the entire globe, even China somehow. The campaign ?officially started this week, and the Witnesses are out in full force. It's appears to be a rehash of a tract ?I remember as a kid, almost 30 years ago!??BTW, False Religion is YOU. You will die die die at Armageddon if you reject this tract. Don't say nobody ?warned ya', buddy! There is almost no time left to repent and become a magazine salesman, just like some ?"widely respected religious figure" stated. Yes, they have reduced our Lord and Savior to a "figure," like a GI Joe ?doll. Maybe he'll use his kung-fu grip at the Big A. Ya' think?"?
    With his permission, I'll post his comments here later.

    Hello, and WELCOME to the forum, Amanda001!!!

    Yes, your comment is published as you can see, and much appreciated, in fact... I don't know if you realize it yet, but this site is mostly populated with EX-Jehovah's Witnesses, who left for many reasons, including those you have enumerated.

    I hope you stick around, Amanda001... you will have lots more to say to the Witnesses the next time they knock at your door!

    Cheers!

    Welcome to the forum, Amanda!!!

    Most of us here agree whole-heartedly with you.

    You see, we were at one time brain-washed Jehovah's Witnesses but we escaped the cult.

    And I guess I am going to be 1 of the 5 billion people that perish when God decides we have no more right to live.

    Make that over 6 billion who must die at the hands of Jehovah in order for the Watchtower to have their Paradise. Welcome to the board, you've come to the right place.
