  The only interesting thing was that ho could speak for a while to GB member and this will have some consequences for " some brothers " at Bethel. I don't see a winner or a looser.

  My personal opinion is that John Cedars is loosing credibility and his latest posts/ actions are full of anger, resentment and desire for vengeance

  How to blame him, he was convinced/ obliged by his mother to attend MTS ( a nonsense school ) and we know what happened, he lives in a strange country and is being shunned by his whole family.

  My sincere advice ; step out of this ex jw activity for a while and build a new live, go back to UK and try to get some real skills because you will get nowhere if you continue fighting like this against the Wts.

  Hi Julia,

      try to focus on your real life and not to think about them ( easy to say ). It is not important wether you DA Or DF, important is that with your mind you are out of the cult. 

  What about your book, the opal ring, are you still writing? i am very interested because I wrote a book myself and I don't know what to do with it.....

  Is Watchtower's stance against education only for North American witnesses

  by wannaexit in

  i was reading on a european ex jw forum where some feel that watchtower's railing against higher education is primarily for north america issue.

  this is due that many in usa and canada leave home to leave on campus.

  it was mentioned that many young european jw attend universities and its not frowned on.. i found this odd because i heard what morris and losch said about education in italy.

  I live in Italy and I have read the italian link. I don't see a big difference between Italy and the States although there were a few positive comments of Jw's that were " allowed " to attend college but as I have read in some comments
  - it's very difficult to find a job in Italy and university give you much better chances ( maybe I should say GAVE )
  - it is true that distances in Italy are not comparable to the distances Usa so there is a good possibilty to find a university not too far from home
  - I think university is much cheaper in Italy

  Nonsense! Who is north and who is south? Till there was a wall in Berlin we used to say east and west. This is really tipical

  JW blablabla but let me participate in this discussion. The king of the south is Islam and the kings of the north are Us and Russia.

  I know, also this is hilarious and blablabla, but AT LEAST GEOGRAPHICALLY CORRECT!!!!!!

  Is their a new holocaust in the making ? Are jews being made the scapegoats again ?

  mass immigration in the world "seems" to have led to a rise in anti -semitism in the west.

  france now has more than six million muslims.. germany now has four million muslims.

  the netherlands has almost one million muslims .

  smiddy, you've got a point. The international press is trying to convince us about Palestines being victims.

  What victims? Launching rockets and protect their bases with children and woman?

  We should all listen to the son of Hamas leader and why he diesn't agree with his father. As far as Europe and all these

  moslems are concerned in my country ( Italy ) they don't build mosques, if they

  want a mosque they can go back to their own country. I see only one problem and that is

  Islam just like Wtbts but much bigger.

  so my situation is changing and i am trying to figure out the best way for me to handle this.

  i am an unbaptized publisher married to a dub who was inactive when we met and when we married and during the course of our marriage, and just went back active a year and a half ago.

  he is a full believing dub.

  although I studied I never was an unbaptized publisher so I after a year of studying nonsenses I told the elder that all these

  things about the gentile times and 1914 were " completely invented " by men and that was it. The elder refused to continue the bible study, I stopped with the teocratic school and became " WORDLY " again. I continued, however, to attend most of the meetings with my wife.

  Nothing special happened, after a few years I didn't gomanymore tomthe meetings, we had three children

  ( normal not jw's ! ) and my wife goes so now and than to the KH ( she is very liberal ).
