The first time I looked at "apostate" material it felt like looking at a sort of religious "porn."
Naughty but exciting, scary but fun and left me with an appetite for more.
i was always fascinated by it.
as a kid, i used to go to the local library and secretly read books by so called apostates.
later, i would sneak into christian book stores and quickly buy a book or two.

i don't know if any thread has already been posted regarding this or not.
(if it has, then just disregard this posting!
) but, i thought about something with regards to the new, 6-episode stint of the famous show on fox, the x-files.
The WT's tag-line would be " Do not go out there, there is no truth out there, the truth is in here. If you go out there we will shun you"
Wordy I know, but, WT always makes things wordy.
with the ending of large scale catering at all bethels what has happened to the farms?.
i may have missed this but cannot find any reference to them.
or are they producing delicacies for the private kitchens serving the elite?.
WT farms are still operating. They are called Kingdom Halls and they produce a crop of brain-dead WT slaves.
what is the point of supporting a belief which began as a bronze age ox-headed idol called yahweh... in a religion designed for illiterate peasants now appropriated by a money-driven cult with a one hundred and forty six year unbroken record of total failure of its bible based predictions?.

Some people just don't care if their religion is true or stupid, or if their policies are right or wrong, or even if their policies are just plain cruel. They just don't care if their religion's policies cause suffering and death. They just don't care if their religious leaders lie or what they do with donated money. They don't care if abuse victims are treated like sinners and abusers are protected by the silence of the elders. They just don't care. They're happy, so that makes it all ok.

re: magazine requests .
dear brothers: in our letter to all congregations dated october 20, 2015, regarding making wise use of printed magazines, publishers are encouraged to use good judgment to determine an individual’s interest before offering magazines.
What's all this then, JWfacts doing jokes?
Good one, Paul, funny visual there.
something that gets little attention or not enough is the what kind of social behavioral people were the ones who started the watchtower corporation ?
c t russell was someone who got divorced from it would appear a lack of love and attention to his wife and the supposed attention he gave to a younger woman who had lived at his home together with his wife .. j rutherford built a lavish home in sunny and warm san diego and lived with his mistress and personal assistant, separated from his wife.
apparently hoarding and drinking alcohol as well when it was illegal by law to do so.. would either of these men qualify to be even elders in today's standards ?
In my opinion many of the WT's evil roads lead back to "judge" Boozerford.
Russell sounds like he cherry picked all the things he liked about freemasonry and all the things he like about christianity added a little bit of his own wacky theories with a dash or two pyramidology and formed his own frankenreligion.
No, I don't think he does define what constitutes sinning against the Org...huhum...sorry, I mean holy spirit.
I'm sure the application will be revealed in a future broadcast....I can feel it in my buns.

This religion was NOT the immaculate conception we were all led to believe it was.
Nor, is it it any way pure and unadulterated by the pagan/ "false" religious practices of the world and era it was concieved in.
