Hi guys, Ive finally got a copy of CoC from my local library, Im on page 120ish and Im really enjoying it! The thing that gets me now that Im enlightened is how little the Rank and file know about anything this organazation does! Everything is so secretive and covered up behind a curtain. Child abuse scandal...not mentioned. R. Franz leaves GB in the 80's.....short note hidden in a KM. Double standards regarding Mexico and Malawi.....my own fam couldn't tell me a thing about it! The real writers of the original NWT.....no one who is NOT considered 'apostate' knows, or atleast no one knows or dare to ask. Its soo frustrating learning all these things about an organazation I grew up believing was God's mouthpiece. Now im learning the TTATT and I cant mention much of it to friends and fam or ELSE ill be labeled an apostate before Im ready to fully deal with the backlash of that! Anyone else remember how they felt when they first read CoC?

If THAT is Paradise, count me bored....
by bafh ini happened to attend a session of the summer convention on sunday morning.
one thing that that struck me was how their view of paradise was that we would all be the same.
they kept talking about how nice it would be if we all spoke the same language.

Jah split up the one language to create confusion (lolol), and it worked! The dubs gather people who find this appealing relative to their current situation and exploit it!

Memorial Partakers
by Yondaime indo they want to attract attention to themselves or are they just crazy?.
my sister just had a spiritual orgasm since she met a brother at a party who'd took part in the emblems.. .
i'm an atheist so i know its a load of bs, but what do you think this guy's objective is?.

There is a sister at my hall who partakes.....shes a bit weirder than the rest of us. (even though Im no longer mentally bound in slavery to men) Its a combination of imagination and perhaps some subconcious thought which manifest themselves in a dream repeatedly. Combine this dream with self-righteousness and a feeling of passion for the Lord, and you're convinced you are the one to serve as Kings and Priest before Jehovah over your brothers.

newbie to site looking for fellow DF's and DA's (or anyone else who has good conversation to offer)
by eyefell4it2 ini am new to the site.
i started perusing it this weekend and wish i had found it 10 years ago when i was on my way out.
anyways, long story short, was df'd for you guessed it...fornication or "loose conduct" even though i had been a pioneer with an elder father, grandfather and uncle and no previous issues.

preface question:
by mohrb inorder of operations is important, so, i'll ask a question before i make assumptions and start "fixing things.".
obviously, the site heavily encourages the viewpoint of former j-dubs and others who have disagreements with the political posturing of the wbts.
i get that, and see your points.

The whole: "Listen only to us, or ELSE!" Things brings up a scripture

I am JW.ORG
by LogCon infamous quote from wuthering heights revised.. '... i am jw.org!
it's always, always in my mind: not as a pleasure, any more than i am always a pleasure to myself, but as my own being.
so don't talk of our separation again: it is impracticable...'.

They make them via button shops found online.....at times a JW company may produce them, but this is mainly something a few uber dubs did to be zealous and different. It started around the summer and now its HUGE.

"Jehovah is really blessing our family! Thanks for your visit"
by stuckinarut2 inso i am being hounded by the elders who are staring to get suspicious about our "slackening off in the truth".
rather than being railroaded or pushed into a defensive or argumentative situation, i am keeping the following comment up my sleeve:.
"jehovah is really blessing our family life.

Im an active JW. Intending to fade, and before I saw the TTATT (thanks to you guys) I was an occassional lurker here. Just ordered Crisis of Conscience and yes this site is effective, only to those who have a reason or a propensity to search for it!

Oh my, yes.....alot of this is real. In the local KH, its getting to be almost to where you have to be an apostate to NOT wear something with JW.org on it. Getting easier to see who is waking up, or is already awoke and faking it!
