  sorry to be so blunt, but you only have yourself to blame if you realize something is wrong but allow your cognitive dissonance to kick in.

  if you are confronted with facts which are reported by reliable sources which are hard to dispute and deny, and you choose to dismiss these as "apostate lies" rather than looking at these from an objective point of view, it's your fault and you deserve the consequences of willful ignorance!.

  Dubstepped, if you are a battered wife who could seek help but chooses not to do anything about it, wouldn't it be true?

  He "became a Jehovah’s Witness after door-knocking “missionaries” visited his Byford home months before his death."

  Wait... any proof that he actually became a JW? As in becoming a publisher & getting baptized. Merely being a return visit or a bible study DOESN'T COUNT. Just sayin'...

  My thoughts on the last WT study. Keep in Expectation

  by StarTrekAngel in

  so i sat thru another brain mushing session for the sake of family.

  it is no myth by now that the more time you spend awake the harder it is the accept that people just take all of this in without asking.

  a computer has more reasoning abilities than your average jw at this point.

  2 Pet 3: 9 is another similar scripture - "Jehovah is not slow concerning his promise, as some people consider slowness, but he is patient with you because he does not desire anyone to be destroyed but desires all to attain to repentance.

  
  

  Wait... so Jehovah supposedly DOES NOT WANT ANY TO BE DESTROYED, but he intentionally wants to make things hard for people to discern so that they will be destroyed???

  
  If Jehovah really didn't want any to be destroyed, he would have made "the truth" MORE CONVINCING, and made the broad road lead to everlasting life & the narrow road lead to eternal destruction. BUT nooooo... he made it the complete opposite!!!

  
  

  This is exactly why I can't believe that this is the truth. It just doesn't make sense!!!

  Kids these days are smart. We have statistics showing that 2/3 of JW children leave "the truth" eventually. Hope this would go up to 3/4 or 4/5 in future!

  "Imitate Jehovah" CA Actually Didn't Have That Theme At All

  by JW_Rogue in

  2. experiences

  just got back from "imitate jehovah" ca and noticed that the theme was never really used at all.

  all the talks were about family, preaching and getting along with others in the hall.

  they didn't once go over an account of how jehovah acted in the past and how we should imitate that action.

  I don't like Daniel Craig either. I prefer Pierce Brosnan as Bond, or someone like Jason Statham
