Believe me, there are plenty that know the facts but, for whatever reason, mainly fear of losing all social contacts and along with that one's sanity, we have just decided to go along with playing the WTBTS game.

Oh, we know.... We definitely know.😕

Stephen Lett at our assembly today

by StarTrekAngel in

he delivered the most cultic piece of propaganda i've ever seen in an assembly.

wife typed up the whole thing.

i will be posting when i get a chance.

Doubtfully Yours

This fat cat Lett is going around Spanish assembly halls saying crap like "let us not be discouraged because the end has not come as we expected to have happened by now", without recognizing that our expectations have been fed and encouraged by the WTBTS. So infuriating!!!😡

Infant baptism in the JW religion, why is it harmful to young ones

by oppostate in

baptism for young jw's is not the same as that practiced by other denominations, and it carries a lot of potential for harm.

getting baptized as a young person in association with the jw organization is harmful to young ones who as they are maturing, wish to exit from the clutches of this captive religion.. when you see young ones, such as the one in the photo below, get baptized, doesn't your heart just sink, knowing the jw religion has caught another victim in its web of deception and abuse?.

Baptism without full knowledge and understanding is the same as infant baptism.

We are to follow on Jesus Christ's steps. At what age did he baptized? Alright then! Even though the Bible mentions that time when he was in the synagogue questioning the clerics, which meant he had love and appreciation for God, still he did not get baptized. He was a CHILD.

Yet JWs have baptized kids as young as 7 years old!!! It is shameful!!!😡

One of my big pet peeves of this religion.

My boyfriend is thinking of becoming reinstated

by gypsyvine in

i'm not really sure where to post this.. i've been with my boyfriend for 4 months now and i've really never been happier.

i was brought up in the church of christ with an elder father and i really believe in my religion, although i will admit to being a lousy christian at times due to sheer laziness (not wanting to get out of bed on sunday).

my boyfriend essentially lives with me.

Doubtfully Yours

If he is reinstated, unless you want to convert to JWism, you are in for a rude awakening. Start planning for the many times he will be awol from your life.

As in love as you are, start to imagine him GONE.🙁

how do most of you now feel about the military?

by sowhatnow in

was not sure where to post this, but i was curious, how do some of you now feel about the military?

would any of you let your children enlist, or would you yourselves join any military field?

how do you feel about the idea of women in the military?

Doubtfully Yours

Have never supported it; Do not think ever will, although my taxes are used towards it.

US military has done such criminal harm in the Middle East that I cannot bring myself to ever be interested.

Poor members believe they are agents of good. In reality, nothing more than sacrificial lambs to the God of greed and war.

For sure my deep JW indoctrination plays a part in my feelings about all things.

Do You Remember The First Time You Looked At "Apostate" Material?

by minimus in

jw
friends

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.

Once I stumbled into this forum years ago, forgettabout it, I knew it would never be the same. I have left mentally and never looked back. It is good for my psyque to know I am not alone.

Thanks Simon!!! 😊

Wait until it long passes before being baptized.

Best wishes. Puberty is rough no matter what. Hormonal craziness is the worst!

Why would anyone choose to support Jehovah’s Witnesses?

by Half banana in

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?.

.

Doubtfully Yours

One has to fight it constantly. Being a JW does make you a homophobe. I intentionally make a conscious effort to deprogram in this regard.

Is one of my many complaints to a God creator. How dare you create or allow the existence of certain types and then require them to act against nature? How dare you, you unjust evil jerk?!!!

I digress from the main topic. Sorry. Complicated being I am.

If there is a hell, I will be there with friends.

Did I mention the WTBTS does not look at American football favorably? Our click does not care about that view point.

And remember... Buffet style, take the good while skipping the non-sense.🏈
