I think this is why so many JW's are relying on anti depressants. The promise is made, continues to be made yet year after year loved ones are dying that were not supposed to die. We are watching family members go through this right now. It is frustrating for us to watch them all struggle, waiting for this day to come. They continue on the meds, washing it down with booze. It seems to be the way they deal with it. The interesting thing is, these are the ones who have the best comments at Sundays Watchtower study. Oh the irony!

37Despite their false predictions aren't the JWs right? Won't the world eventually end & Paradise come?
by deegee inaren't there christian denominations who do not make false end of the world predictions but who nevertheless believe that the world will eventually end and paradise (whether in heaven or on earth) will come?.
it seems the watchtower was just jumping the gun when they made false end of the world predictions but they are nevertheless the right: the world will eventually end and paradise will come..

If I kept promising my kids that wonderful trip to Disney, yet I never take them. I promise this year after year after year. Do you think eventually they would think...we are never going to Disney? Mom and Dad just keep promising it but never fulfill the promise. Eventually the dream dies and no one believes the promise anymore. I could also use the story of the boy who cried wolf. Eventually no believed him either.
To answer your question...NO! If I am wrong then I can honestly say that I lived a happy life, was honest and raised my kids with dignity and honor. If God wants to destroy me for that than so be it.

We have been following this on A & E. Leah has a great pair of balls. lol
She is sticking it to Scientology! I just love her. I agree...someone who has/had some "pull" in the org, needs to do this to WT. We need a GB member, GB helper or CO to blow the whistle on WT. We need a 2016 Ray Franz. If Ray Franz did today what he did back in the 80's/90's, it would be fantastic. We have something different today...the internet!

Maybe it's desperation for new members. They are bleeding young ones and the old are dying. They really said the org has changed for the better? That's funny! People are leaving and the publicity is not good (child abuse). They are cultier (is that a word?) than ever!

Great info Barbara. Thank you for posting this. It was interesting to listen to. The more the public is warned, the better. WT is making quite a name for themselves.

The Story of My Sister - Lurkers: Is this logical?
by Funchback inmy sister got baptized at 17 or 18 years old in 1983. she was ripe for the jw picking as she was shy, quiet, naive and with low self-esteem even though she was tall and beautiful and she attended one of the best high schools in philadelphia.. she wasn't outgoing and she only went out on a couple of dates prior to her baptism.
she worked at a day care center.
she loved children and animals.

So sorry this cult has done so much damage to your family. They have a lot to answer for. Hopefully soon they will be answering for so many things (child abuse).
It amazes me that they DF'd your sister for getting married in a church. Our Kingdom Hall was sold to a church several years back. Shouldn't WT be punished for supporting Christendom? The hypocrisy in this cult is staggering. I have witnessed throughout my life, "what goes around comes around." It will happen to WT one day. Just stand by and watch, WT will get caught with their pants down. They are screwing with too many lives and people are getting pissed.
Enjoy your family and live each day to the fullest. I am glad you have your sister back in your life, that is awesome. Your sister is lucky to have you.

Believer is so happy to see so many in the truth YET he doesn't mind hanging out on a JW apostate site. He/she makes a perfect JW. HYPOCRITE ALL THE WAY! Gotta love it!

Eventually that is all that will be left in this organization . The power hungry and arrogant. They won't have anybody else to feed off of but one another . It will be interesting when they start combining congregations and one COBE has to give up his almighty position and move in a congregation with another arrogant COBE. We know of several people who have moved out of congregations because they couldn't stand others. It will be fun to watch when they are all thrown back in together again. Oh the fun! :)

That's not what WT wants. They want the dubs with money! Not too many hefty donations coming from Kenya.
