JW Cart encounter

by Listener in

i've seen very few carts in western australia.

the only one i have seen is near the front entrance of the perth royal hospital and on the several occasions that i have seen it, they are there all day, at least during the week.

i've stopped and had long conversations twice now and both times when i have approached them they've told me to take whatever publications interest me and then we've started talking.this last visit i brought up the royal commission.

The outpouring of community support from people of all backgrounds, races, religions etc is wonderful!

How all these "worldly" people can be so loving is mind blowing! Witnesses tell us that no one in the world is selfless.

I bet the only thing witnesses will do is set up a literature cart nearby!

We have now heard several witnesses, including parents say that line about how "the witnesses were the best there at the ARC"

We simply act shocked and say "what? Where on earth did you hear that? They were categorically condemned as being far from that!"

But, as usual, the society has done a great job of re-writing history and the facts to all witnesses!

The little things that made you feel guilty as a JW?

by HereIgo in

watching rated r movies?

maybe a little gambling in vegas?

when i was in high school i went to the mall with my friend at the time, who happened to be a female.

@wake me, thanks for sharing your story.

I have to ask, HOW did that Brother get to keep his "privileges" even to the point of being interviewed at an assembly?

Did you keep his name quiet?

The god of love and his most loving son Jesus Christ

by Crazyguy in

so their the very essence of love so we are taught so then why at luke 14:26 jesus says in order to be his follower you must hate your mother, father, wife, brothers and sisters.

then you must renounce everything you have.

wow just plain wow, and they call me crazy!

stuckinarut2

Great thread!

Yes supposedly "God is Love", and the bible is "his word" and the way we get to know him and his personality right?

Well, he seems like a crazy psycho who kills everyone when he doesn't get his own way! Hardly a nice guy.

If humans acted this way, we would lock them up and call them crazy.

Eagerly anticipating the death of billions!

by stuckinarut2 in

surely someone who eagerly looks forward to the death of billions of people (including babies and children) is not emotionally healthy?.

yet, that is the key belief "happily" anticipated by witnesses.... food for thought?.

stuckinarut2

Yes 'All or nothing', I agree! It simply defies logic that most witnesses don't see this for what it is - sick...

A child can see that is wrong, but somehow as adults manipulated by the teachings of the WT Society, we not only thought it perfectly ok, but also "loving of God"!

weird....
