perhaps a teaching, doctrine, an article, a talk, a news report about child abuse handling, or a jwdubdotorg broadcast, a video, a cartoon for the kids....you know....?.

Well, its been several years since attending anything 'witnessy', and yet my die-hard extended family have not asked for any reasons.

It is as if they just dont want to know...or are scared to know the real reasons! I told them I have a list of issues that I am happy to share if they wish, but I would not force that knowledge on them.

They have chosen to remain ignorant of those reasons.

Will the UN turn on Religion?

by no-zombie in

as all witnesses know, the opening gambit of the great tribulation will occur when the united nations turns on organized religion to devastate them and leave them naked of people and resources.

however, as jehovah's judgement day has been spoken of as being "imminent", the question that can be fairly asked ... 'is the united nations organization actually in a position to act as god's destroyer of false religion?

while i have no doubt that most within that organization had in the past tried to make the lives of the desperate better, the united nations has unfortunately now become a weak and underfunded political eunuch.

The society likes to think that everything revolves around them...as if the whole world is out to get them.

Newsflash! The world in general does not even notice or care about the WT society

A Must-Watch video for all those trying to break free or fade!

by stuckinarut2 in

for any who may be fading, or trying to break free from the society, or those who fear how things will transpire , please do yourself a favour and watch this video!.

it is long, but worth the investment in time, for it will help in many ways.. its called "coming out" by theramin trees, and for those who "come out" about recognising the truth of the society, it will help.. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mj-8ocmtb_8.

Is remaining ignorant a choice?

by stuckinarut2 in

is remaining ignorant about the society a choice?.

surely every witness has a moment in time when "something just doesn't seem right"?

perhaps a teaching, doctrine, an article, a talk, a news report about child abuse handling, or a jwdubdotorg broadcast, a video, a cartoon for the kids....you know....?.

Nicolaou: However, it's hard to sympathize with persons who choose not to investigate the central tenets of their faith or, even worse, perform the investigation and ignore the plain facts

You make a great point here nicolaou! Especially as witnesses try and make everyone in the community evaluate and research their religious faith and background! But that same deep investigation is NOT encouraged into the society's past!

The insanity continues

by FedUpJW in

as if anymore proof were needed that what used to be the religion i was baptized into has ceased to exist i was asked this insane question, when i mentioned to a jdub that someone i knew was celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary.

are they witnesses?".

i didn't used to really think about that insane question in the past, but now that i have woke up to ttatt it is glaringly obvious that they think there can be no chance of actually knowing and getting along with anyone outside their tiny circle of conditional friends.

stuckinarut2

Yes, the classic way to speak about ones we know (friends) who are not witnesses is to say "an aquaintance I know" rather than "a good friend of mine"

Witnesses cant say they have friend unless that friend is a witness...

an hour ago i went to bid good bye my two brothers in law and their wives (all elders/elderettes).

So if it now OK to use a blatantly worldly / pagan song as long as the words are changed, then how about these options?

"We wish you a merry convention"

"Dude looks like a pioneer"

"My lovely lady pioneer shoes"

Counterfeit Christians

by Chook in

counterfeit christian beliefs can only be discovered with a close look.

the problem with anything counterfeit is that it looks genuine even under close scrutiny.

us 100 dollar bill is the most counterfeit currency, some of the best bank staff have trouble sorting genuine from real.

stuckinarut2

The watchtower society, or JW.org is not a counterfeit Christian religion! Just ask them, and they will tell you that they alone are the TRUE Christians...
