"No Apologies is no longer one of Jehovah's Witnesses"

by No Apologies in

jw
friends

sometimes i just don't know when to keep my big mouth shut.

today i think finally said enough to get da'd.. for those of you just tuning in, a recap: about 2-3 years i came to realize everything i had been taught as a jw was a load of steaming turds.

since then i have managed to fade away more or less, without incident.

(((No Apologies)))

Yes, you're absolutely correct: JWs are not to be trusted. Their loyalty is only for the WBTS.

Do you think that Armaggeddon is "near" or many, many years away?

by booker-t in

jw
friends

i am 40 years old and i have been hearing the same old song by jw's "armaggeddon is around the corner" since i was a toddler.

it has to come to their minds that how long are they going to keep saying that armaggeddon is "near" or "around the corner"?

or they eventually going to quit believing in this fantasy and look at reality?

Doubtfully Yours

I truly believe, in my heart of hearts, that even if I live to 100, I still will not see armageddon.

The longer I live the less I believe in the concept.

How many more years do you think you have left to live?

by JH in

jw
friends

.

since i'm relatively healthy, don't smoke, hardly drink (2 beers a day), and if i base myself on my grandparents and parents age, i think that i should live up to anywhere between 85 and 95. which means i should have another 40 to 50 years of posting here.

Doubtfully Yours

Based on my health wise habits, and my family blood line, I should live 'til I'm 90. Of course, accidents do happen in the way there. May I be fortunate enough to live 'til 90, or 'til my goal... 100!

Which aspect of JWs would you like to see a documentary about?

by Gadget in

jw
friends

if you had a chance to make a documentary about some aspect of the jws, what would ou choose?

would you talk about shunning, the blood issue, explain how its a cult, or what?

unfortunately this would only be for an 8 minute segment on a current affairs programme so i need something that'll get peoples attention and make them think without having to go too deep into the subject.. what would you choose to talk about?.

Doubtfully Yours

I'd love to compile the myriad of cases where they've swept the incriminating evidence about a fellow JW and hidden it from the authorities at all cost in the name of "not bringing reproach to the name of Jehovah and His organization on earth".

What a large encyclopedia that would be!!! I mean, truth be told and they could make many seasons of that drama "Law & Order".

It'd be called "Law & Order: Swept Under The Rug In The Name Of Jehovah".

Keep Your Eye Simple - Special Assembly Day

by truthseeker in

jw
friends

apparently, many of the dubs can't keep their eye simple, so they need an assembly to tell them how to do it.. youths, are you pursuing spiritual goals?

is one talk for the afternoon.

(education, careers).

Doubtfully Yours

Assemblies are so repetitive, so much of the same thing!!!!!!!!!!!

leaving

by Lo-ru-hamah in

jw
friends

to those of you that have been jw's for many years... i would like to know how it is that you have transferred to your new life.

my family and i are in the process, actually, we have left because of many of the issues brought up on this forum.

this, being jw's, is all that we have ever known.

Doubtfully Yours

I've left emotionally and mentally for 10 years now.

It took me a good 8 years to deprogram myself. I feel so much better now about my decision. The first 5 years was such a struggle, I'd keep going back and forth on my decision.
