How do jw's explain vestigial organs in humans?
by purrpurr ini only recently became aware of cases of people being born with tails.
having looked into it this is a evolutionary leftover and we have many other examples within each one of us like the appendix, wisdom teeth, and muscles to move the ears.
plus many more, this seems to me to prove evolution completely.

Can someone explain to me ......
by notoneoftheboys ini was never told before i got baptised that i would loose my family if i got disfellowshipped.. no one told me i would get disfellowshipped if i had a blood transfusion.
no one told me that the gb was all powerful and tolerate no dissention.
that if i spoke to a d/f person i would get disfellowshipped.. no one told me in my marriage bed there were rules if broken d/f shipping resulted.. i was told my brothers would die or care for me.

Why being disfellowshipped from the Jehovah's Witnesses cult is a good thing
by Finkelstein inone of the many reasons are people are free to enhance their intellectual growth through pursuing education, something the wts demeaned for very much of its existence.
education is a good thing for humanity for knowledge can and does help resolving some of the problems mankind has to endure.
new discoveries in health and medicine.

For survivors who discover TTATT, being DF'd can be a blessing in disguise.
For those who lose family, financially, emotionally, it can be horrific.

Article 16.
(1) Men and women of full age, without any limitation due to race, nationality or religion, have the right to marry and to found a family. They are entitled to equal rights as to marriage, during marriage and at its dissolution.
(2) Marriage shall be entered into only with the free and full consent of the intending spouses.
(3) The family is the natural and fundamental group unit of society and is entitled to protection by society and the State.
Article 18.
Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance.Article 20.
(1) Everyone has the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association.
(2) No one may be compelled to belong to an association.To a degree, WTS enforces violations of Article 16.
However, they definitely violate Article 18, i.e. Dubs CANNOT change their religion.
As well, WTS sets up congos as associations, whether incorporated or unincorporated (the latter preferentially).(Article 20)
No apologist could ever convince a reasonable person that a Dub is not "compelled" to remain in the/an association of Dubs.

a few months ago i had a long conversation with him one of them and found him to be quite friendly.
he is new to the area in the years since i left.. this time he was very defensive and said he wasn't allowed to talk to me.

Satan messing with DNA.
(It's going to suck in the 'new system' when women change into men [unless you're gay, but I'm not sure how that will work out either] ).

Having gone through the BS of sacrificing my youth to the Borg, I found this article (WT Apr 15, 2013) disgusting.
"They Offered Themselves Willingly—In Mexico"
“THE BEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO US”
Dustin and Jassa settled in the town of Tecomán—still near the Pacific Ocean but some 2,700 miles (4,345 km) south of Astoria. “Instead of a cool breeze and mountain views, we have blistering heat and lemon trees as far as the eye can see,” says Dustin. Initially, they could not find jobs. Lacking funds, they ate rice and beans twice a day, week after week. “But just when our diet seemed to become unbearable,” says Jassa, “our Bible students began to give us mangoes, bananas, papayas and, of course, bags full of lemons!” In time, the couple found work with an online language school based in Taiwan. Now the money they earn from that job amply cares for their daily needs.
How do Dustin and Jassa feel about their new lifestyle? “This move is the best thing that ever happened to us,” they say. “Our relationship with Jehovah and with each other is stronger than we ever believed possible. Every day we do so many things together—go out in the field service, discuss how to help our Bible students, prepare for meetings. Also, we’re free from the type of pressures we felt in the past.” They add: “We now appreciate what we never fully understood before—the truth of the promise found at Psalm 34:8, ‘Taste and see that Jehovah is good.’”Yeah, let's do the follow-up when Jassa is preggers, and no-degree Dustin is forced to relocate the family to their home country, trying to put the WT philosophy in practice, trying to make ends meet.
Parasitic Borg BS.
