  Do not concern yourself with what the WT god cares about. The WT's God is not a nice person.

  You need to care.

  Care about and for yourself also, believe - believe your life has meaning regardless of what any God thinks.

  Underneath, many JWs are afraid they will hear something that will challenge their view, of God's holy people.

  What is their official explanation for not allowing beards?

  by keyser soze in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i ask because my gf, who knows all about my jw upbringing, convinced me to grow a goatee, just to see how it looks.

  we both decided it looked good so i decided to keep it.

  i tried to explain to her that as a jw, i wasn't allowed to grow one, but then drew a blank when she asked me why.

  When I was studying I was told it was because news readers didn't have beards. 😮

  We are not thinking folks. What is the best way to get JW's to check out the events in Australia.

  by James Mixon in

  tell our jw family members, door knockers, and stand sitters that you were very impressed.

  by the branch overseer and other elders in australia, they gave a fine witness.. so what will happen, they will tell their friends the brothers in australia gave a fine.

  witness.

  I for one am sick of feeling muzzled by these self-righteous twats.

  If they drop in on me unnanounced again, they will hear the truth about their precious organization.

  "And what happened next was simply unbelievable!"

  by Terry in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i always sit in the same spot, just outside starbucks in a vestibule area with a table in the air-conditioned space.

  i say "always," but not today.. somebody with two laptops and a table filled with business ledgers was in "my" favorite spot!.

  so, i took a tiny wooden table inside the coffee shop on a long padded bench next to 3 other identical tables.. as the clickbait banner ads like to say: "and what happened next was simply unbelievable!".

  "Of course, I don't want to talk to you about that....."

  by Phizzy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the thread title refers to a number of times i have heard those words, or "substance thereof" lol, from jw's.. they are referring to my/our reasons for leaving.. it occurs to me that the correct response is not a "respectful", " i understand", but rather should be :.

  " why ever not ?".

  if they have "the truth" why should they not discuss and defend it ?.

  JWs love to put their fingers in their ears and say la la la at the first wiff of an honest exchange of thoughts and feelings.
