DEFINETLY A CULT
i've posted these years ago and was reminiscing, so i thought i would share the laugh with you again.. top 10 signs that jehovah's witnesses want to disfellowship you:.
10. there's two guys in suits staying all night outside your home in a four-door sedan.. 9. an elder you spoke to on the phone calls and asks you to repeat what you said the other day, but asks you to speak slowly and clearly.. 8. suddenly, jw friends stop by and ask an awful lot of the same questions.. 7. your laptop computer was moved, left on, or is missing.. 6. you left your car unlocked, it was thoroughly searched by someone but absolutely nothing is missing including your gps which was searched too.. 5. your boss asks if you are in trouble with the law or someone, stating some really polite men were asking about you and left some "tracts.".
4. someone picked up the cigarette butts around your back porch.. 3. the bartender at your favorite nightspot asks if you have ever before seen the guys in the corner booth that have been ordering "cokes" all evening and pulling out a camera everytime you order a beer.. 2. you receive registered mail and you already served on a jury this year.. 1. your jw mother who finally had accepted that you will never go back starts begging you to either go back to the kingdom hall or move with no forwarding address.. .

What article did this come from?
Could the OP post link please?
(this may offend some sincere 'christians'.
can you, as a human, stop yourself from breathing?.
i have always thought that one of the basic teachings of 'christianity' is the concept that we are "mere sinners"...riddled with guilt and not worthy of god or life...undeserved kindness has been shown to us etc.... but, we have no control over that, just as we have no control over breathing air!.
Not some organazation but to Jesus.
current update- the wife and i are separated.
i dont go to the meetings or in service but im not df, or da.
she is not budging.. problem- my wife has made it clear that she doesnt want me back unless i do all the witness stuff, i have even offered to attend meetings but not participate in commenting or go in service and this is not good enough.
If there are no kids involved, I would:
But thats just me. Or you could give her time to sort through her emotions, etc.
My prayers and well wishes,

does anyone have the link to dl the wt library?
i was looking for some mag from the 1900s and see that the jw org site only goes back to 2000.
marked
i found an article on the dr. sears website about the benefits of breasfeeding.
according to the article it says: "a drop of breastmilk contains about one million white blood cells.
" it also says "colostrum also contains higher amounts of white blood cells..........than mature milk.
The only recourse I can see from the borg., if this argument was made......which it is most likely not too (dubs on read WT's remember), is that the entire process of human life from a mother to unborn child involves the sharing of blood. Therefore, nursing wouldn't be considered an issue. Or some bologna like that.

My explanation would be, God sent his son in a manner to look over our sins. All we have to do is imitate the Isrealites in Moses' day who were instructed to look at the copper serpent.....and put faith in the ransom of the son so that God could forgive us our sins.....of which we have no control over.
Not sure if that answered....but thats where I am now.
my situation right now is trying that how my friend and parents that the jw's are not the true religion.
i've shown numerous examples of flip flopped doctrine, false predicions, the validity of the jesus choosing the bible students in 1919 and more.
but it seems that although the recognize these mistakes they ask me, "aren't you happy the organization is making progress?
Hi, im in a similiar situation as you. No, scratch that....I am in the exact same situation. PM me anytime buddy. And I would recomend you try to let them see the human side of things before heavy handedly show the fallacies in doctrine.
from the feb 2015 km, page 2:.
have a publisher demonstrate how he.
prepares for the ministry by reviewing the tracts,.
I really hate how techno the borg. is going. Let me rephrase that, I hate how the borg. is controling information through the new highly structured meetings and assignments, and how they are making everything centralized and the R and F believe that it is a blessing from JAh. HOW IS IT A BLESSING FROM JAH if you can't explain what you claim to believe, or accept as truth without pulling out your tablet and pulling up some website. No use of the bible, or something to (attempt to) rationalize it???? If you get a question, direct the householder to the website.....or better yet SHOW THEM the website...with the nice little short answer pre-prepared. Dumb down the R and F so that they can no longer be good students of the bible. (or atleast some version of that)
