    the truth is the bible hasnt been changed by JW organisation, i have read a lot of books from the world,,lots of history, etc etc

    Hey Albie,

    I'm glad you weren't scared away....

    Since you like history and you have read many books from the world, have you read up on your NeoBabilonian kings? Can you tell me about any books from the world that you have read that indicates that Nebuchanezzar ruled from 625BCE onward? Or do the history books that you have read indicate 605BCE as the beginning of his reign?

    I am very happy to be an ExJW, thank you. You can post all you want here, but please respond to the questions that we ask and don't make unfounded accusations.

    I don't even know where all this is coming from or going.

    But to the above question: WHY? WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?

    A@G is a human being, not needing JW labels.

    PureAlb:

    i meant that in a friendshipway, i did not mean that in a religion way, its like if u my friend and i let u down in something then you wont be very happy will u

    In spite of the language barrier here, I think you've changed what you originally stated.

    You originally said:

    when i let u down then i pay for it

    Now you're saying:

    i let u down in something then you wont be very happy

    ( I added Bold, Italics & Underscore for clarity)

    There's a key difference in those two statements. When you "let me down", who is it that's going to "pay for it" or be "unhappy"? Just you? or Both of us?

    Here's where I thought you might be heading with this statement. Please let me know if I'm misinterpreting what you meant.

    "when i let u down"

    By this you mean that if you don't at least attempt to reach out to someone like me who has been misled by apostates, that you would be letting me down. It's the least you can do.

    "i pay for it"

    Jehovah will hold you responsible if you don't at least try to warn us.

    Is that even close to what you were thinking?

    Or was I way off?

    Also, just so you know where I'm trying to go with this: The Watchtower's explanation of "bloodguilt" has at least one huge logical flaw in it. (Probably several, but one BIG ONE for sure.) But it still doesn't stop them from using inappropriate & illogical doses of guilt and fear to get people to do what they say. If you'd like to hear more, let me know.

    Are you asking me or all ExJWs? If you read through my posts you will know that I am definitely not disfellowed. I am a former Gilead trained Missionary, if that helps. Why do you ask? A@G

    Hi People,,,what i mean about Personal Decision is that, if someone wants to believe what they really want, what will the problem be, so why do some people have to question their beliefs and their type of life. wouldn't it be better if we try to respect everyones life, no meter how they do it. hope that you all get my point... Enjoy

    I'm not sure where this is going either.

    If this is truly your belief, then you are indeed a unique JW. The GB has relentlessly put up an effort to build walls around JWs in order to separate them from the rest of 'the world.' And by doing so, they have created labels for those people, including "wordly", "apostate", "unbeliever", "opposer", "satan's follower", etc. Don't you think this does much harm in personal and family relationships?

    If the GB eliminated this, along with a few other harmful doctrines, then I would have no problems with them. We could all just "get along" fine.

    well i see so everybody its against something, so u still dt accept what i meant by personal decission,so if someone is still in the truth why do u for example say to them oh thats rong etc etc,,,,, i would respect someone that encourage someone even if that person its not doing what they doing,,, so if someone of you works as coach, do i have to tell u oh change job i dt like it,,,,,, why not im happy what u are, and maybe hard for me to do what u doing, being against something doesnt lead u anywhere anyway,,
