We would all be sitting around looking forward to fun and joy after we die and are resurrected. I never understood why you couldn't enjoy the life you are living NOW.

41If all the world were JWs....
by Tornintwo inin my former indoctrinated state, i used to yearn for a time when all the world would be jws.
but hang on minute, let's just think about what the world would be like if everyone was a jw,.
first of all, no higher education, so no medical advances, no scientific research, no modern day medicine, infectious disease rife, no doctors, no engineers, so no modern day comforts.

They're now asking people to clean at Bethel?
by onightdivine ini heard from a "friend" that a letter was read aloud during the midweek meeting asking people to volunteer to do cleaning work in bethel.
lol.
i really can't think of anything else to say if this is true.. they get more free labor, and they still ask for more more more money!!

Hey, if I could put word on the street to have a large group come clean my home top to bottom for free and everyone came, I would do it too. As long as there are gullible people to do the dirty deeds they will continue to ask. There's a sucker born every minute. -

Why would anyone choose to support Jehovah’s Witnesses?
by Half banana inwhat is the point of supporting a belief which began as a bronze age ox-headed idol called yahweh... in a religion designed for illiterate peasants now appropriated by a money-driven cult with a one hundred and forty six year unbroken record of total failure of its bible based predictions?.

"Because, regardless of its glaring flaws, it's still the best thing going atm."
Hey...you know you are on an evil apostate site. I guess it's the best apostate site going at the moment. You may want to tell the Elders or better yet, your CO, what site you are one. Just tell em you have glaring flaws and see what they do to you. Good luck (oh dear, I'm going to hell for that one). Oh well, I have glaring flaws as well.

JW.org vs. Cross: Honestly What's The Difference?
by Hadriel ini have a family member that goes nuts with these little things.
i wouldn't be surprised if they have a drawer full of underwear stamped with the logo.. it is completely out of hand.
now i'm not nitpicking here but what is the difference between printing a cross/wearing a cross than wearing a jw.org pin, tie-tack or whatever other logo'd item?

One is a symbol used by Christendom. The other is used by a cult. JW dot org is approved by the GB,the other is not.
It's kind of like dancing and singing in the Kingdom hall/Assembly halls is not right until the GB puts it's stamp of approval on it. Once the GB does that the head bobbing begins and it's the best thing since sliced bread.
HYPOCRITES!

Money to Org
by truthlover ini know this has been talked about to death but this week our loving faithful and discreet slave wrote a letter to all congregations in canada - keep 1500.00 a month in congregation expense account each month for the next three months coverage,(4500.00 in all) 5000.00 for any problems that may arise but send rest into them.
so aren't we lucky to have 9500.00 still left in the account!
the elder reading the letter indicated it was for the kingdom hall building work!!!.

Great example Lostandfound. So many of the rank and file do not understand the additional pages of the letter (BOE) that was read to the congregations. The secret elders page. It's amazing how much the rank and file does not know and the teachings they don't understand or even know. -

Reinstated and Still Shuned!
by new boy ini was at a wedding the summer before i left the jws and i met an old friend.
he had been reinstated for 6 months, he was dfed for 4 years.
so it took him 3 1/2 years before they would let him back in.

The slow trickle has become a steady stream!
by freddo inin the last few weeks it seems that instead of one or two new posters a week we seem to be getting several every day.
many seem to be long time jw's who are troubled by the path of the organisation.
this is really encouraging to those of us who have been here sometime.. welcome!

We noticed the same thing. Good news!
Lurkers: Keep reading and if you can't leave due to family and friends. Quit donating. VOTE WITH YOUR WALLETS!
If WT wants to take what you love (family and friends) if you leave, take what they love ($$$$).

How often do you....?
by Lostandfound inhow often do you, ........ no not that, how often do look at this forum ?
and how long does it last,....... no not that again (one track minds) how many looks are you addicted to a day?
keep coming back to see anything new, or do you look at posters who you know from experience have comments that will interest you?.

I read a lot. It's therapy for me. It helps! Interesting life stories here. So many wounded by this cult. It makes me feel not so all alone.
