  share yours, i'll start if off, i have a few i heard from the platform or from other jw's.

  one from the platform, a witch was studying with jw's, and she had a relationship with demons/spirits.

  when she was studying they turned on her and threatened her if she didn't stop.

  Not to mention penis size. This is Cupid, so let's be generous and say it was 4 inches. Even so...how does that even work as a weapon on an adult woman..

  You're right. That seems generously large. The pre-flood materialized angels must have been at least 4.5 inches.

  matthew 6:1: "take good care not to practice your righteousness in front of men in order to be observed by them; otherwise you will have no reward with your father who is in the heavens.".

  "now we'd like to call to the platform brother so-and-so, a [let's face it, capital letters should be used] regular pioneer and elder in the blah-blah-blah congregation.

  brother so-and-so, what helped you to put kingdom interests first?".

  When you personally know the double-live BS of many young ones on the platform - it's pathetic.

  One model family on the CA had the son later DF'd and the daughter DF'd twice.

  What a joke.

  A Challenge to Apoligists - Why Would a Heavenly Father Kill a Newborn?

  as a father, made in god's love, that has troubled me for a very long time, is that god, as described by the wts, is soon, going to slaughter every, roughly, 7.9 billion people on the planet, because they have figured out a way to come know him as a father according to the wts.. .

  as a father, dear apologist, why would you kill/murder a one-day old baby?.

  GC or Enzo - still waiting.

  Jer. 7:31

  "They have built the high places of Topheth in the Valley of Ben Hinnom to burn their sons and daughters in the fire--something I did not command, nor did it enter my mind."

  What God of the Bible speaks of love - and what god of the Bible is a murderer?

  Which one are you following?

  John 8:44

  "You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him."

  Who goes door-to-door, coveting the houses of people, looking forward to the murders of those folks and their children?

  long time lurker, first time poster here finally looking to get some things off my chest.

  i've always been a very curious person with tons of questions about everything, and i also care deeply particularly about societal issues like social injustice, racism, and homophobia.

  that, coupled with how boneheaded all the elders in my congregation are (except for one), led me to ask even more questions that led me to find ttatt.. .

  You should also read Billy the ex-Bethelite's posts about questions to ask others in the hall wthout arousing suspicion.

  I wish I could have taken advantage of that opportunity.

  Ditto the remarks about going S - L - O - W with your wife, esp. if she is pioneer-minded.

  We have been so conditioned that any stress in life can be cared for best by going in service. That does not dissipate readily.

  I was an idiot as I became fully aware, because I've been floating for 20 years. But when I became fully aware, I thought others should be able to grasp that it's all BS in a short period of time.

  I wish I would have read Steven Hassan's book first to realize how messed up the mind of a person in a control group becomes.

  GC:

  Looks like you've already become well-adapted to the new form of field service.

  "Hi, my name is GC. I don't have anything to say, but if you want answers to life's questions, then visit this website."

  Anyways, I did look but cannot find the answer.

  It would appear that you believe that a one-day old baby has already sinned so badly, that his Father will kill him.

  You have an interesting concept of fatherhood.

  ( I apolOgize for the typo in apolOgist. It was pretty late.)

  As a father, dear apologist, why would you kill/murder a one-day old baby incapable of such reasoning?
