so, i was reading combating cult mind control....and i was just thinking: since i've been doing research and learning about the false doctrines of the wtbs and others who are still asleep.
the more i accept that all is not right, the more i see the depression that many in the org.
are going through, the more i see the "human" side of things, the more i compare the average uber dub to the average mainstream christian.....the more i recognize how this cannot be jah's organazation.
This is how I'm feeling right now. Sometimes its just too hard listening to their propaganda but we just have to hang in there because of family. Many dubs don't have a clue the kind of influence they are in.
The time will come when we will make our decisions clear.
a world without satan (revelation 20:2,3,7,10).
romans 12- joy in the kingdom hope.
the spirit.. demonstration: family worship.
Oh my word. This is such bullshit! How come people still believe such chappy propaganda as new books being published in the new world. Crap crap crap.
Well thanks anyway . Since I didn't take any notes at the convention I used this when my service group was having the after convention highlights. Smh
by looking at cdn court cases.. i knew i would find him if i persisted.. there is clear evidence, in my view, that beginning some time, probably in early 2010, but perhaps earlier, that mr. jones developed a delusional disorder with a primary religious focus.
mr. jones accounting of the development of his belief that he is jesus christ, is consistent with the known development of psychotic disorders.
mr. jones describes a period of time where he felt that he had some greater purpose or was meant for something important although he was unable to really identify what that was.
Lol this is hilarious. If he is a jesus he should raise up the dead
so recently, several over-righteous ones in the cong were discussing "how amazing it felt when they got baptised".
statements like "how awesome did it feel as you got raised back out of the water?!".
or the classic "i felt so close to jehovah as i came out of the pool"!.
The best feeling was being underwater. Apart from that nothing soirtual dawned on me. Baptism made me feel too much guilt over petty mistakes I made

I felt good that my family was happy but deeeeep down in me I never felt any sense of being close to God. Its just a show
anyone who is a witness or was previously a witness, is aware of the written & un-written rules concerning association with disfellowshipped family members.. there are a multitude of quotes through out the watchtower publications, but these 2 will suffice.. "are you proving yourself holy by not associating with family members or others who are disfellowshipped?
"the clear instruction in the bible is: avoid them.
that means that we have to stay away from them... the bible says that apostates are mentally diseased and that they use their teachings to make others think like them... what must we do to avoid false teachers?
Objectivetruth, I love your analogy.
Jesud never shunned anyone. It is so cruel to be shunning others just because they have left one religion. So cruel and unloving
"truth is one, paths are many.

gandhi also said, "i like your christ.
Thank you for this analysis. I love it. Its so liberating to live your life as Jesus did.
if someone has time, please look at the child abuse policy...is this true?
does anyone know anything about this site?
i am really trying to understand and find out what is truth and what is fiction.
Where in the Bible does it say God is going to use an organization now? He operates with individuals on a personal basis not through a mammoth organization. Obviously T-wit's logic is flawed from the beginning. ;)

Wow thats very scary and creeeepyy.
I now understand why my 'worldly' friends used to call us crazy and delusional.
Suddenly Caleb and co are now JW pop stars. Smh
ok, so in the interests of balance....(as it has rightly been pointed out that i am getting more bitter toward the org), can we think of any positive or nice things about jehovah's witnesses?.
just throwing this topic out there....... .
.
Haha funny comments.
Most JWs are typical nice people. They are nice because they have to protect the image of the organization. There are truly true christians in the org. And yes the higher you go, the less Christian you become.
