  It's a scam they'll probably start reducing the number of CO's once the scheme is established.

  Too cynical?

  So what, how to piss off a JW is to give zero f***s - they can't stand it, remember, they expect you to become "triggered" by their lurking.

  Just saw the film, "Apostasy"

  by Bad_Wolf in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it was a very good film but not fully what i was expecting.

  a jw could even watch it, i don't think the title fit the movie.

  there was absolutely nothing about apostasy, nor do i recall the word even being mentioned.

  Yes I'm sure the cringe factor that exjws feel on watching it is only felt because we have been there, done/said that, I see it as over-identifying with the characters and story.

  The normies that watch it may find some scenes awkward but would just think "what weirdos" JWs are.

  DFed talking to other DFed

  by blownaway in

  i don't know if they do this any longer but back in the day they had a special section at an assembly sectioned off for dfed people who would have to wear a ribbon that said disfellowshipped.

  do they still do this and what was the rules on dfed talking to dfed at the assembly?

  Never ever seen or heard of the ribbon thing.

  I always thought that D-effed people could be identified by a big D on their forhead just like in the show Red Dwarf the hologram was identified by a big H on his fro.

  Maybe we should send Sacha Baron Cohen to interview one of the GB about various forms of identification for the D-effed we might get some interesting candid answers. Lol.

  A film about Jonah

  by Sergey Antonov in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  who has any thoughts about the new film about the prophet jonah?

  how could they divide the entire period into days, if the bible does not say so?

  the king ordered them to fast 20 days before the destruction ???!

  I know WT likes to call allegories "the account of Jonah and the big fish" "the account of this and that" etc, but, shhh guess what it's a story, it's not real and was never meant to be real.

  Apostasy Reviews on Rotten Tomatoes ... Spot the JW LOL!

  by Exelder in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  on rotten tomatoes, apostasy has 100% success from critics (very rarely that critics are unanimous in their approval of a film) and 97% from the audience.

  i have loved reading the reviews as they are almost all ex jw's but there is one glaring review that is almost certainly from one active jw who is pleading that the film be banned, even though they haven't actually seen it (typical) and it made me laugh:.

  If You Told A JW That His Religion Was “False Religion “ What Would Be His Response?

  by minimus in

  witnesses are used to saying that every other religion but their own makes up “false religion “....how would a devout witness handle being labeled as a member of a false religion??
