When members see it in black and white with WT references it makes a big difference. Good going, hopefully she can save that poor 10 yr old.

Finally Gave My First Anti-Witness After 11 Years
by new light inhello one and all.. the local jws had a booth set up at my university today and something just came over me.
i went to a computer, found a list of failed prophecies, printed and stapled it, and walked over to the middle aged woman and the 10-ish years old girl.
the woman said "if you are interested in anything, take it for free.

It's sad that her parents do not realize the control they are under in allowing and even blessing this tragic event.
This little girl's mind is yet to be fully developed yet Jehovah is allowing her to dedicate her life to him?
Jesus was baptized until he was 30!!
30!!! The WTS is certainly hitting new lows.
The mindless saps will probably shed a tear or two when they announce her age.

This dumb bastard made a reference in the recent zone meeting that when he visited a local Hall the brothers lacked a show of respect. He goes on to say that it was some kids that waited on him in the parking lot as he rolled in that stood there in the cold to welcome him. He said other brothers could learn a lot from these kids. What arrogance!!
I made a comment loud enough for others to hear regarding the arrogance of this prick.
What a lack of humility for this pretentious self-serving aggrandizing maggot.

It's sad to hear of their injuries and deaths of others while in the service of the organization. It does not matter if they were witnesses or not, it was a human life and we are all accountable to God for what's found in our hearts.
God knows how to distinguish between good and bad intentions. He knows if those that were killed or even injured know their deceitful ways or are merely trapped in.
Why do some members on here make disparaging comments regarding a human life regardless of whether you believe in God or not?
That's disrespectful and uncalled for. Please keep those inhumane comments to yourself as they have no place in threads that originate with sincerity for people being hurt.

WT Society holds EXTREME Responsibility for 1975 and False Expectations
by flipper inhowever- many jw's who have come into the jw organization from like 1985 forward virtually may have no knowledge of the wt society's 1975 debacle and false predictions of the end times or armageddon predictions.
just like in in the book 1984 by george orwell the wt society has a way of not only erasing it's history so no newer witnesses will be aware of their false predictions, but also they are re-writing their history as if those false predictions never happened.. so for those of you here who may have never read or heard of how whipped up into an emotional frenzy witnesses were in the years just before 1975 by the wt society claiming the end was any day now- this threads for you.
to see the pressure that was put on jw's by the wt society to get rid of everything before " armageddon " .

My Letter to Brooklyn about the Parousia that got me disfellowshipped
by cofty inthis is the letter i wrote back in '96 about the parousia.
following the '95 watchtower that disconnected the "generation" from 1914 i began to look carefully at end-time prophecy and soon discovered what i knew were basic errors in what i had been taught.. i was a loyal jw at the time and was still serving as an elder.
i used only watchtower publications in my research.

"The word "parousia" is translated correctly in NWT Bible. Your Letter to Brooklyn about the Parousia did not get you disfellowshipped. The reason of disfellowship is your attitude, disobidient and apostasy. I guess my words will hurt you because I told you truth.
The truth is what you DON'T have you moronic imbecile.
Now go back to your mindless state of unconditional obedience to those 7 bozos in Brooklyn.
And don't forget to send in your donation when you get to the hall so the WTS can settle all those child molestation lawsuits.

I just had fun giving a talk!
by OneEyedJoe inso, unfortunately, i'm still on the tms and had a talk tonight (in front of a co, no less) and the talk was on the subject of adultery.
in the source material there's reference to "spiritual adultery" i.e.
idolotry or when israel had alliances with pagan nations.

"I took the opportunity to throw in a comment about how some religious organizations today even have close ties to the scarlet colored wild beast from revelation - the UN - and we would want to make sure that we are not sinning against god by being involved with such an organization."
Thanks for the laugh. I can certainly see thought going through the CO's head, "If this guy only knew the truth of the matter."

The parts that deal with deep doctrinal issues. Ray was a keen student of the Bible, highly intellectual in my view, and he knows the proper applicability of the scriptures as he explains them. He uses a common sense approach where he doesn't take them out of context as the WT has, does, and will continue to do so.
The parts where he's discussing dealings with the GB is very interesting and enlightening. I'm not sure if it was him that mentions it in his book or someone else but the thought of every major appointment, magazine article, assembly talks, and doctrine interpretation, was handled in a very sincere, humble, spiritual way over continual prayer until they felt Jehovah's spirit actually guiding them to mentally decide one way or another. I did not expect the bickering, and politicking that can only be compared to world politics.

Leave it in Jehovah's Hands - Your thoughts?
by berrygerry inleave it in jehovah's hands.
is there a more disgusting phrase in jw land?.
the abuse, harms, thefts, suicides, family destruction - leave it in jehovah's hands.. why would anyone with a more than 2 neurons say, "oh that makes sense," we do not need to change or intervene in any way.. sooner or later, god will take of things.. .

"@ Perry...it's so nice to know that god takes care of you while completely ignoring the other 8 billion+ people on this planet. Apparently your "profitable business" takes priority over starving children, genocides, and diseases. Or, is it that those starving children have not yet "made peace with god"?"
The current suffering in many parts of the world brings into question Jehovah's Universal Sovereignty right to rule over his creation.
Perry's success has nothing to do with Jehovah's inaction in many wicked and sad world affairs.
