If we are further away from perfection, why are we more moral?
by stuckinarut2 inas we know, witnesses teach that adam and eve were perfect and then committed the first act of sin and rebellion.. they in turn were cursed,and we all declined as their offspring.
humans supposedly lived shorter and shorter lives, and became more imperfect and sinful.. the further away in time humans go then, they should be getting worse.
so why is it then that as a society, humans have actually improved in so many ways?.

It has also well been asked, "If this time period is so bad, when would we rather live? The middle ages where plague abounded? The 1600's when the average life span was 35 years old?"
Witness teachings say we are the "furthest point from perfection" now, and yet the quality of life is better now than at most points in human history.

JW Double Standards and Hypocrisy in the Congregation!!!
by Christian Gutierrez ini am sure you have stories as well of elders being a hard ass on many, yet turning a blind eye to the 'sins' of their own family or close connections.
cheers everyone!

Yup...seen it often!
In our last cong, (the one we faded from), the secretary was the typical alpha-male bully.
His word was gospel! He would be so quick to find fault with everyone else and make sure congregation action (by elders) was taken. (over some of the smallest things ever!)
BUT when his own daughter lost her licence for drink-driving, he made sure it was hushed up around the cong! NO-one who knew of it was to speak of it ever again!
Hypocrite!

A purposeful life can conflict with "truth"
by The Rebel inthat life needs a purpose, in my opinion is why many remain witnesses.. yet it occurs to me, if only witnesses could simplify their life, they would regain their sight, look at themselves and see the " miraculous " organisation and the unforseeable future is not as important as enjoying the spring day of today.
this is why i have simplified my life.
my purpose in life today is simply to play a little football with my son, and appreciate the spring day.. but of this i am sure, today will be a good day, better than the " purposeful" days i spent in the " miraculous " organisation, living on the a hope of an unforseeable future..

Well said!
The sad reality is that witnesses "outsource" their life goals and plans to the "society.
If they were asked to honestly plan their own lives, they would not know where to start!

while on the your tour group , ask tough questions about the organization's policies on pedophiles and shunning.

Ask them if Armageddon came right in that moment, would all babies that were born to non believers be killed?

Thanks for your comment Perry.
However, if we as a society truly base ourselves on ancient judeo ethics, we should be treating women as property, and keeping slaves. We should punish people (including children) by throwing rocks at them until they die....

If you are a male, wear a tight fitting stylish suit, bright socks and a man-bag.
If you are a woman, wear spanx (spandex)
Ask if ToMo3 is available to sign an autograph!

Cirencester Congregation UK: My story
by erbie indear all,.
i have been a member here for some years although mostly in the background.
many of you have bravely shared your own experiences and i am very grateful for that but i have never been open about my own experience.. nevertheless, i would be very grateful to those of you who would now take the time to read about my own personal journey from the jw religion and the circumstances that caused me to abandon that way of life and how i landed up where i am.

Wow! So sorry for the things you have had to go through in life!
Well done in maintaining your dignity, poise and grace throughout it all though.
Now you have a chance to take control of your own happiness and the direction your life takes. Only you can now decide to regain happiness.
Much love!

New "paradise" video preview? "Will you be there?"
by stuckinarut2 inmy wife (unstuck) just saw a new 2-3 min video in her ex jw facebook feed, depicting a "paradise" scene preview.. it was complete with aerial shots and slow motion montages, with moving music.. scriptures were quoted across the screen, such as rev 21:3,4. i shazamed the music, and it came from another "worldly" album called "world of dreams.future world music" (you should see the song titles from that album!).
is it an official wt video, or some private persons production?.
if it is official, they seem to have once again resorted to desperate emotional manipulation tactics..... anyone else know?
