hey there, .
i have an apologetics website, and i've recently posted three articles on jw doctrine.
i was wondering if you all could make suggestions to improve them, or for new content.
Why are you interested in targeting JWs?
Also, don't be too flattered by the two witnesses you know "commending you for your Bible knowledge" they say that to everyone. They flatter people in the hopes of recruiting them, funny that you fell for it - just a heads up btw.
so i was scrolling through the latest morning worship videos and found our good friend tony m. explaining why the gb is not dogmatic.

you can find hirs reasoning at around the 3:30 mark here..
Introducing Dogmatic he only raps about dogma.
it's been a long time since i attended, but i understand that many of you still go to the kingdom hall for your various reasons.. a huge thing that helped me in my mentally breaking from their beliefs was to stop using their terms that put you, virtually automatically, into their thought mode.. using terms like "the truth," jw's feel special about themselves and this helps them separate themselves from "the world.
" by incorporating loaded language, jw's learn not to think, but merely to memorize words and phrases instead of analyzing a situation.. the reasons someone misses meetings is because they are "spiritually weak.
" they might be involved in "worldly thinking.".
The loaded language is how you tell a true believer from a weak christian. I remember getting counseled by a group of older sisters at the KH becuse I greeted them as "ladies" rather than "sisters" WTH!
My reply " ok, ok you're not ladies then." Lol.

ToMo using the Witness dictionary where words mean whatever Jehovah wants them to mean.
don't normally waste time watching these but this one caught my eye as it was obvious what the subject matter would be about..... http://tv.jw.org/#en/video/vodprogramsevents/pub-jwbmw_201604_2_video.
mark sanderson: accept change with faith and confidence (heb.
basically sanderson is giving a pep talk to all those that have new assignments changed.
Yet, they are still selling the idea of Bethel as a career to the very young children.
Shameless, these men are shameless.

going to make this short and sweet but i need some advise again and i kinda need to vent a bit so sorry.😢.
so it has been weeks since the wife and i have been to meetings.
it has been nothing short of wonderful!!!
"hey brother wasa, come on back to the meetings.
" (after 10 years) so i respond that the situation with pedophiles is out of hand.
they tell me "we" elders have received tons of training on the subject, its not like it was 10 years ago.
anyhow i got to thinking today about my days in the borg and the resolutions that would intermittently be made in the announcements for co visit expenses, sending a donation to society www fund etc.
my point is that while i was in (almost thirty two years) i never once saw anyone put up their hand to vote against a resolution that the body of elders proposed.
on a couple of occasions i heard a few hushed murmurs but i never saw one person vote against.
