It's funny they will pick on dark dyed hair, dark nails and bright lipstick but they never mention breast enlargements. We know of several Elders wives who have had this procedure done (some several times). I have nothing against breast enlargements but it is a surgical procedure that can be dangerous. Putting on dark nail polish,wearing heals or putting on red lipstick is not considered dangerous procedures. lol This is one thing that has intrigued me over the years but they hardly EVER mention it in talks.

Awake - February 2015: What do you know about JWs

by Designer Stubble in

true false - 8 questions1 jehovahs witnesses are christianstrue - we are the only true christians.

however, jesus is always secondary to yhwh or yahweh, who we for some reason call jehovah.2 jehovahs witnesses are creationiststrue, we are just not young-earth creationists3 jehovahs witnesses do not believe in doctorsfalse - of course we believe in doctors.

if we can believe in an invisible sky daddy, surely we can believe in the doctor standing before us in flesh and blood.

Was my dad awake?!

by EyesOpenHeartBroken in

i am wondering if my deceased elder father was awake?

once we found out he was dying, i spent every moment i could with him, we were very close.

anyway, i offered to read to him a lot when he was resting.

Sorry you lost this wonderful man.

Yes, there is no doubt he was awake. I think there are a lot of "brothers" (elders, CO's) that are fully aware of the dirty little secrets in the org.

My Dad was also an Elder and has passed away. He also would make interesting remarks about things. I just think some people just don't know where else to go and TTATT scares the hell out of them. There whole identity is wrapped around this organization.

Cherish the good memories! He seems like he was an awesome man and Dad.

I miss my family so much. I thought I was over it but I have breakdowns every few months thinking about my family

by macys in

as most of you know i have been shunned by my family for 2 years because of a photo posted on facebook of me kissing another girl at a party.

the matter was not dealt with fairly but it is over now and i am 100% certain that jdub org is a cult.

but i miss my family so much.

NO ONE should have to loose their family because they don't believe the same things as their family.

I am sorry you feel so much pain. It is VERY painful. The issue I have with it, is how can your family turn their backs on you? They are to treat you as if you were dead. I'm sorry to be so blunt, but if my family treated me this way, I wouldn't want them back in my life. EVER! It's just not normal.

I have witnessed a person being DF'd and shunned by their family and as soon as good Ole Mom and Dad are elderly, sick and flat broke the Elders will then seek out the DF'd person for help. WTF is that all about. I'm dead to you until we need you. That is sick!
