Upcoming Surgery and Blood
by HeyThere ini am a newly unbaptised publisher.
recently i found out i need to have major surgery and the jw's tried to rush a blood card in my hand.
i was so relieved when the elders said i could not have one until i was baptised.. but they rushed to get me copies of the blood videos.

Gypsy Sam - They are horrendous videos, aren't they!?! And not good to watch right before surgery. I was almost mad the sisters didnt warn me about the graphic surgery shown- I do not want to watch things like that before surgery as it adds to my nervousness. I wish I would have recorded the frenzy they were in making sure I watched the videos - I mean, they came over to my house to watch them with me!!! With popcorn!
Thank you for the kind words. I am so glad I woke up before baptism as it should make it a bit easier on my family.

Abraham Still Considered part of Great Crowd? Not being found worthy of Everlasting Life?
by objectivetruth indoes anyone know of a wt or wt book, that states abraham will be tested again and then judged based on his deeds during the millenium?.
essentiallly claiming that, after god testing abraham, with the sacrifice of isaac, he will tell him that he has to pass the same test that the resurrcted unrighteous have to pass.
i know that this is a teaching that is required by holding to the 2 class belief, but i haven't found any artocles on it.. any ideas?.

eyeuse2badub: lmao! I told my very dub husband about the mansion and he looked disturbed. He said "I didnt know about that." and then changed the subject. It really does make the dubs sounds like looney toons.

Bible Atrocities
by Trapped in JW land ini really can't wrap my head around how people can still consider god loving with such atrocious biblical accounts such as, 1 samuel 15, (god ordering the slaughter of amelikite baby's and children) 2nd kings 2, forgot the verses (god sending bears to maul 42 children) and many others.have you ever asked a witness or anyone elsewhat they think about these accounts?
what was their response?
i'd love to ask one, but unfortunately i'm still physically in the cult and i wouldn't want to raise any suspicions.

I agree...some of the stories in the bible are horrendously appalling. Since we have begun reading the bible again from Genesis and my mind is now clearly seeing ttatt, it just bothers me. And we have family study led by my husband 3 days a week - one of those is for the bible reading, which we read with our 10 year old son. I have told my husband that I dont think the content is okay for a child...his response "Its the bible!"
I am not going to win that argument yet...but I am working on it.
Also, thanks for sharing the Old Testament - Lewis Black Heaven. That was awesome.

lisarose: my husband has told me he wouldnt want blood. it just pisses me off, this religion just makes stuff up and people follow. for born ins, it is all they know! those blood videos are scary so i can only imagine how frightened children are of blood....and they show this crap to kids! my husbamd is willing to listen about blood...when i first told him i did not believe jw, i asked if he would really let our child die if he needed a blood transfusion. i think that got him thinkimg but that is all he knows, he wont evem set foot in a church or even look at a different bible. the mind control jws have is just nuts.
HB....i am with you. i would get the blood wothut a doubt. this religion is false...i just hope i can get my h out of the grasp.

I was taken off guard by just how the women went on and on about no blood....and the blood videos are so completely biased and graphic! why would they think my 10 year old needed to watch it?!?
i cqn see how they have themselves cornered. to even have new lite regarding blood would be a huge risk....not only for lawsuits but also leaving the cult. that is a majordoctrine change and could wake many up.

DF'ed and Confused...
by Stumbeline inso i think the title pretty much says it all.
i have a tendancy to be long winded about things, so i'll just give a general introduction and maybe tell things as i go along.
i don't even really know what i want from this site (ironically i remember jehovahs-witness.net mentioned from the platform as a site not to go to).

Sorry you are going thru this. How did they find out you almost had sex?
My husband was raised a dub...so it is all he knows religion-wise, whichI am sure you are the same and as a result being df'd feels like you are losing everything...but girl, this is not how a loving religion would be....this is not what jesus would do. Explore this site amd the others, such as jwfacts.com....i was on my way to baptism this summer but now there is no way i will be a dub. Educate yourself, analyze your findimgs, and free yourself.
sending positive thoughts your way....
