there's a "tipping point" phenomenon on the internet, where people and organizations that nobody knew about before, (like martin shkreli, for example) suddenly become the butt of every joke in the 30 and under crowd.

Great!

The more this information becomes public knowledge, the better!

In need of your advice. November broadcasting 2017

by pleaseresearch in

so my mum asked me to watch the broadcast and to my astonishment i got through it without smashing my screen haha.. so i let her know what liars they are for saying they would never deliberately distort a quotation.. she is ok for me to give her some printouts of watchtower material where this has in fact happened, contry to what they say.. where should i start and what would be your best link, or way to approach this.

i think this is a good opportunity of waking her up, if she can see that the broadcast has lied to her, she won't be happy.. any advice is you can give is so appreciated.. thanks everyone..

"we would never deliberately distort a quotation"

by ttdtt in

omg my head exploded!in this months broadcast - splian goes off on how much care the wt in making sure its facts are correct, and how they make sure their quotes are not taking from people who have a bad reputation or have an agenda.

and that the make sure its always in context!.

they are such liars!.

The best method a hypocrite uses is to raise the topic first in an attempt to make it look like they own the higher ground.

Then they can accuse anyone else of the VERY thing they THEMSELVES are doing.

It is a classic diversionary tactic.

The thing is, WE SEE THROUGH this attempt to whitewash the facts.

I never used to buy into the idea that the GB / Society were deliberately deceptive. I thought they were simply deluded. NOW though, I see that they are indeed hypocritical and deliberately deceptive!

I am grateful for leaving the watchtower corporation. Innit!

by punkofnice in

i dislike long topics......so here it is.. i suffered for my religion, now it's your turn.. when i first left the corporation my life exploded into a suicidal chaos.. my family broke up.

i lost my so called friends.. luckily, i had worldly friends from all walks of life that supported me, even though they had no idea why i was so suicidal.

in as much as they hadn't left cults.. i went from the corporation to a baptist church.

Amen brother Punky! Amen!

Hoping I can stay

by allyson in

i started studying with witnesses about 21 months ago.

started going to meetings in march 2017, went to the memorial and attended my first convention.

i love it.

Why would you want to be a part of an organisation that views you as unclean, mutilated, and plain wrong?

They will show you no respect. They will not accept you for who you are.

Leave now while you still have your dignity. DO NOT discuss these matters with Elders. They have no right imposing themselves into your privacy.

Biblical incidents that bothered me.

by EverApostate in

i wanted to discuss the (supposed) biblical events that disturbed me a lot when i was a jw.

these incidents were just read and discussed in the kingdom hall as if these are normal and justified, which clearly weren't.

perhaps this led to my awakening.

Parents killing their own children with huge rocks.....

Yup, now that proves how "loving" our "creator" is....

Or thousands of women being kept as sex slaves "wives" by the kings who were "Jehovah's friends"....

Yup, that sounds loving....
