  I haven't been to a convention since waking up. It must be a whole different experience fully awake and ready to play ball with all your mental faculties.

  Using Illegal Means for Righteous Activism

  i wanted to get people's opinion on something.

  how do you feel when people use illegal means while performing their activism to shed light on the watchtower.

  there have been people who have illegally recorded conversations with elders and with branch offices or at meetings.

  JD - You keep saying you want opinions and you are getting opinions, but why do want them and what are you doing with them??? TBH It seems more than just idle curiosity driving you.

  JD - Yeah, you're right, the guy with the girly-man voice actually says "...with Jehovah's erection" strange use of the word.

  Jehovah the God of Websites, the only true website, he will crush and put an end to all other false websites by increasing the number of views with the help of his money, free labour, and assistance from God Google of the Internet.

  Listener said "...the whole motive behind your post is to scare individuals off from recording their JC."

  Personally I feel that JD/RO is a WT shill.

  That's a great idea letting your daughter you are there, letting the witnesses know you are not afraid of them.

  Good for you PE you're not fading away into the sunset.

  Rookie exJW Question

  by Phoebe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was wondering if someone could help me with a question.. i am a rookie exjw, i only left the organization 4 months ago and everything i've discovered (un/arc/malawi/mexico etc) i've only discovered in the last few months so you can image it's been a huge shock to me especially after after 50 yrs!.

  every time i think i've heard everything, something else pops up.. now i've come across a youtube video that mention tv evangelizer jimmy swaggart and the watchtower.

  i remember jimmy swaggart from the time i lived in the u.s.a and i remember the scandals with him and prostitutes etc.

  The most successful teaching of Jehovah's Witnesses and an amazing new book on the divine name

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  jehovah's witnesses have had to revise their chronology and various doctrinal interpretations due to events and scholarly corrections.

  but the one teaching where they have been consistently ahead of the curve is the importance of jehovah's name.. .

  i'm going to run through a (necessarily selective) timeline of jw events and scholarly publications that demonstrate the phenomenal success of this teaching in the last days.

  I had an aversion to the word Jehovah - even when I was in. Couldn't explain it at the time apart from, yes, as Cofty said, it is an ugly word. I would avoid using it whenever I could, especially when speaking to householders. The way JWs use it like a lucky charm verbal talisman is silly and creepy IMO. Can you imagine talking to a person in everyday life and dropping their name every third word like that - they would slap you and tell you to stop it.

  Subliminal images - why and who are the individuals behind it?

  by UnshackleTheChains in

  2. scandals

  i remember about 5 years ago reading on another site about subliminal images in wt literature.

  i honestly thought it a load of bs until i checked out one glaringly obvious image of a creepy skull in clouds within the knowledge book.

  i was shocked and even showed my wife at the time who thought it was creepy.. so my question is why?

  Wow, that pic from the 91 awake, when the photo is enlarged, the man is actually grabbing the boys jeans between his thumb and forefinger - very strange, why would an art director direct that.

  Why not just acknowledge the responses then, if people go to the trouble of commenting just say thankyou for the comments. You know, just like in a WT study.
