Money woes show it ain't the truth
by OnTheWayOut injehovahs people do not beg for money.
[...] we have never considered it proper to solicit money for the lords cause, after the common custom .
it is our judgment that money raised by the various begging devices in the name of our lord is offensive, unacceptable to him, and does not bring his blessing either upon the givers or the work accomplished.

Well, with faith being such an exact science and all, if they go under it shows they are chosen because they are being "persecuted for my sake" and if their shameless "show me the money" stunt works then they are chosen because Jehovah saved their asses from the fiscal abyss. -

Have you heard the one about "Back to the Future" Predicting 911??
by EndofMysteries inwhen somebody posted this on fb, i was anxious to see how ridiculous it would be, probably worse then the gb prophecies, etc.
after watching the clip, i honestly don't know what to believe.
at the very least it's very entertaining and interesting.

The glass on my oven door exploded as you describe, a thousand pieces of safety glass all over the place.
I had just checked whatever was cooking shut the door and as I turned and walked away pshhh.
I felt like I was in a Bruce Willis movie walking away calmly from a house as it explodes behind him.lol, ok so I have a flair for the dramatic.
I wish the WT was an oven door 😇

Blatant apostates did they ever rescue anyone from the cult?
by Crazyguy inwe have all heard about ones who have left and became seriously opposed.
did they have any success in getting anyone out like thier families or is going full appostate a waste of time when it comes to rescuing family and friend's?

It depends on the personality of the individual and where they come from as well.
Some countries and cultures are more used to people that protest than others. That can influence how you view protest in general.

I never met a truly angry apostate, only some that were very much in pain and it did cause me to wonder why, how and what happened to them.
It also caused me to inwardly acknowledge that the congregation could be a very cold place.
So in that sense, all these little incidents, with a variety of people, contributed (I feel) to me waking up.

IMO what happens on forums usually isn't a fair debate so I try not to take them too seriously.
If on the other hand, bullying somone into not posting, or pushing someones buttons on a hot-button issue is "winning" a forum debate then there are so many threads, not enough time to pick a favorite.
