I was just wondering if any of those jw's who got their story told or featured as "a fine example" in the publications, if they ever left the org later? I mean I know regular jw's would probably never hear about it but I thought maybe you guys might?

JWs With A Financial Interest In The Org
by JW_Rogue inthrough personal experiences which i'd rather not relate because it would give away my identity i have come to a realization.
many brothers own businesses that a greatly supported by witness activities.
when local congregations need some service they will prefer to do business with a jw.

Yes I know of jw's who have building firms and printing firms who get a large bulk of their work from the WT.
I also know on a smaller scale that there is an expectation in the Cong that if you are a small company you should be giving goods/ services either at a big discount or for free!

Why did Jesus have to die?
by Crazyguy inlet's think about this for a bit.
adam was tempted and sinned by eating of the fruit.
he missed out on immortality by being denied the tree of life.

I never really understood that Ransome thing, but also bringing Jesus back to live doesn't that cancel out his previous sacrifice?? -

My introduction and confession
by elderINewton inwell another big bad elder here just wanting to say sorry.. i'm sorry that so many were treated like crap, and shown that god's love is not to be found around jehovah's witnesses.
i'm sorry that inadvertently i've likely taught many to judge and as such see that racism permeates every corner of the jw world, else why else would someone be of the world, or even inactive.
i'm sorry i sat in on a jc, and voted to df.

Thanks average Joe and flamegrilled , interestingly enough when the WT conductor asked the kids in the Cong for their comments on the picture not one of them had anything to say? Normally they all have prepared answers, I wondered if I was seeing a bit of CD in action? -

I wonder how many jw kids will be picking up on this today? As remember mufasa was the good guy and scar (the one throwing mufasa down) was the bad guy? Yet in the illustration we have Jesus being scar and mufasa being the devil? Confusing much?

Is it just me but when Serena won Venus didn't even crack a smile! She looked like she was sucking a lemon instead!
BTW all the JW's I know are busy now saying " what a wonderful witness for Jehovah she gave!"

Has any apostate ever lied at a JC about being apostate?
by purrpurr ini watched/ listened to the brave and courageous souls on youtube who bravely recorded their jc's.
you really see a different and horrid side to the elders there.
it might sound whimpy but i don't think i would be able to stand strong like those guys did.

It might sound whimpy but I don't think I would be able to stand strong like those guys did. I think under their twisting reasoning and interrogation I would just crumble.
I wonder if anyone has ever got into that situation and then lied about being apostate just to keep in with their family etc?
I'm being very careful in what I do and say so that I don't get discovered. That's all, you can go ahead and call me a whimp now...

Maybe the bro's who think up these insane pics are smoking wacky bacy or similar?
Seriously though what's so wrong with lions? I seem to recall they are a constant feature of every "paradise" PIC...?

Surely? Surely there must be tons of jw's out there who are mentally shaking their heads at this?
Surely the penny must drop in their minds soon?
Surely!??
