  Witnesses illusion that they have their OWN conscience!! What a joke! Examples.

  by Witness 007 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  witnesses always claim to have a "bible trained conscience" yet they are really just watchtower robots who cant piss without checking with an elder or watchtower.

  an elder who cuts hair was scared when i asked for a bald buzz cut since my hair was receding and grey.

  he actually rang a bethel elder to see if this was okay watchtower wise!

  Negative reinforcement

  Revoking of privileges and the threat thereof,

  Want to be removed as an MS?

  Then shave off the beard!!!

  No scripture given

  Personal conscience? HAHAHAHAHA

  The definition of a false prophet

  by HereIgo in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  the last time i spoke to my mother, who is a devout jw, she threatened me with typical jw scare tactics telling me how oh so close the end is and how me and my 2 young daughters will be slaughtered by god himself in armageddon.

  knowing that this is just a scare tactic, i respectfully listened, then replied that the jw's have wrongfully predicted the end of the world three times and were incorrect, 1914, 1925, 1975. i asked doesn't that make them false prophets?

  her response; " no, because the brothers are imperfect and jehovah knew their heart was in a sincere place.

  Well Moses did actually say NOT TO LISTEN TO FALSE PROPHETS, but my experience is that there is truly nothing that you might say that would get through, she's totally indoctrinated IN A CULT, my whole family is so I empathize :(

  you guys do know that if you just leave and never go back you wont be disfellowshiped right?

  i know people who have done exactly this.

  you have to commit a sin and you or someone else has to tell a elder.

  What if one becomes an Atheist,

  Wouldn't such a a dedication be null,

  In the mind of an Atheist this entity does nor exist,

  A slave bound to a master,

  And the slave says Where am I to receive my instructions I see no one!"

  This is absurd

  What if a Kingdom Hall is dedicated to Jehovah,

  Can it be sold and then of course be used for something else, let's say a brothel?

  Maybe it can never be sold then,

  I feel really, really sorry for those born into the Jehovah's Witness religion

  some facts that make the difference between you and me:.

  1 - as a person raised by non jw family, my parents have never loved me based on conditions set out by a group of old men who they don't even know.

  how does it feel to know that you are in the unique situation where your parents brought you into the world and said 'i'll show love to you.

  Is it morally wrong to put Watchtower behind?

  by Darkknight757 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  with our latest and final run in with the elders, the wife and i had a very long talk about what's next in our life.

  do we try to help others see the light as it were concerning watchtower or do we just let it go and move on with our life?

  we have made it perfectly clear that we will never go back to watchtower and we are finally happy.
