Well now, the GB can't have witnesses getting an education...they might just "think themselves out of The Truth"!

We just realised that everyone has had it wrong! The bible even got it wrong.
Noah didn't build an ark that stopped in one place. No my friends, it was actually more of a shuttle ferry that had multiple stops on its journey.
That is why we have such animal varieties around the world don't you know?
Now, as rare as it is, we managed to find a summary of the trip:
"Welcome aboard all You animals...now please find your seats and make yourselves comfortable...it's going to be a long journey...please keep your feet, trunks, fins, tails and paws inside the ark at all times, and please refrain from eating your fellow passengers"
(several months go by)
"Hello passengers, this is your captain Noah speaking. We appreciate you choosing to travel with us. We know you have a choice in ark travel, and we appreciate you choosing 'Noah's ark' service"
"now our first stop will be the island continent of Australia. All kangaroos, wallabies, echidnas, koalas, platypus, and red back spiders will be disembarking via the forward gangplank."
" Next stop is Africa. All wild cats, merekats, elephants, zebras and giraffes are encouraged to leave in an orderly fashion."
"Next stop, the Galápagos Islands...all misfits and oddballs are welcome to leave us here"

Low hanging fruit.....easy pickings.....
The society openly acknowledges this behaviour by encouraging going after those "who are sighing and groaning over the world" etc... people who feel weighed down...people who can't get themselves out of a paper bag...

Well done.
The real problem is that you dared to ask questions!
You dared to THINK for yourself along non approved lines.....

note to the circuit overseer:.
use this outline for the tuesday service talk from september 2017 through february 2018. you will need to prepare your own 30-minute service talk for use after the watchtower study.

Hello from Illinois
by Rob206 ini come from a catholic background, but most recently had been with the churches of christ.
i have contacted my local congregation and will be talking with someone tomorrow, hopefully setting a study up for next week.
i want to study scripture, but also want to immerse myself in everything jw publishes.

The JW.org religion does an amazing job of turning people AWAY from any form of faith in a divine entity (God)

Hahahaha!
The very notion of "dobbing" or "ratting" on a "friend" is proof it is a cult.
Anyway, that idea the outline says about "reporting them if they don't do so themselves in a reasonable amount of time" did NOT happen in my case.
The "rat" that reported me for being on "apostate sites" didn't even talk to me! I found out only AFTER the elders all held an "emergency meeting" about me!.
When I questioned the elder as to why "scriptural procedures were not applied in my case, he replied "Those steps of Matthew do not apply for Apostasy"
Yep...right...so the Society's procedures trump the Bible's?

After being in the so-called "Truth" makes me despise all religions.
by Fader812 inafter being a jw made me lose trust in religion, from the lies, hypocrisy and greed of this organization made me lose faith completely.
what does one do after this mind f$%@, what is there to look forward to?
do i make up my own agnostic theory in head and hope for the best?

Great thread.
"Faith" should not replace LOGIC, FACTS and EVIDENCE.
It is for that reason that I no longer subscribe to any religious system.
I thank the WT society in part for helping me to see that all "faiths" are based on FOG (Fear Obligation Guilt) and NOT on evidence.
