Do you ever feel strangely drawn towards Conspiracy Theories?

by JW_Rogue in

after mentally awakening to the idea that jws don't have the truth i strangely found myself delving into all encompassing conspiracy theories.

not that i believed them but something about them seemed quite fascinating.

i was especially drawn to the idea of a new world order/one world government.

When i ran away from all this religious bullshit of JW, I was delving too on some conspiracy theories. Especially that it was in 2001-2002, just after the WTC planes attack!

And now i'm really over that, because I understood that these theories are built with thé same scheme than the WTBTS dogma : nothing is due to chance or mistakes. Everything is written and planned. If something happen this is because someone wanted that it happen and made everything for that to happen.

That's not for nothing that these conspiracy theories are largely accepted in very religious background like right-wing christians and left-wing muslims...

But don't worry, the fact you are interrested and seduced by these theories is not crazy. It's normal. And the fact you're asking this question prove that you are already on the process to look at them with critical mind. Then I have no worries about the fact you will deal very well with that!

Request For Information: 1935 trial of Paul Balzereit

by Saintbertholdt in

has anyone ever come across the court transcript of the trial of paul balzereit by the nazi state in december 1935 in halle?.

or has anyone come across the 1936 german yearbook article discussing the matter?.

the transcript incensed rutherford which resulted in balzereit being publicly disfellowshipped.. the watchtower corporation seems to have kept a transcript because they quoted out of it in the 1974 yearbook.. anyway below is what rutherford wrote in an open letter to the german witnesses in 1936 (as you probably already know):.

I speak little germain and i took a look at some german internet archives I know. But for now i wasn't able to find transcript of trial...

I keep searching

I Don't Get It!

by John Aquila in

there are literally about thirty young single very good looking sisters in this one kingdom hall under the age of 30. that is just one kingdom hall.

in the circuit there are literally hundreds of young beautiful jw girls under 30 who are single and anxious to get married.

about two years ago, this one single good looking brother who is about 30 years old and who is an elder married this plain looking sister who is 59 years old.

Let me say you that if a 50-year woman try to date a 30-year guy, it's not for playing scrabble or chess!

The gay brother will have a surprise...

And let me say you that a hot 55-year experienced woman in bed is ten time more great that a cold 25-year unexperienced good-looking girl!!!

"Deep Down , He Knows That It is The Truth"

by BluesBrother in

jw

this phrase i heard again at the weekend when a diehard dub was discussing his non believing, but much loved son.

"it is just that..... [insert any excuse here].

it is something that they all say about us, yet nothing could be further from the truth.

coalize

If it were really the truth and God's Chosen religion on earth, then maybe he shouldn't let so many people "escape" every year, year after year, aye? Maybe God is trying to tell the JW's something?
Maybe something like, "Get out of her, my people!!!!"

I already tried this on my parents.

Me : "You know, the fact that Jehovah let so much people to go away must have a meaning"

Parents : "Yes, You know, narrow is the gate and cramped the road...".

Me : "Ah? It works for that too ? How convenient!"

Will the resurrected marry/have children?

by davidmitchell in

i have just finished reading 'brock talon's' two books.

in one of them, entitled journey to god's house, pub.

he comments on how the wt's pictures of the post-armageddon world do not agree with their doctrines, namely that those who are physically resurrected will not marry/have children.

coalize

it would seem that the post-Armageddon world will be mainly inhabited by a-sexual people....

This is exactly how I always imagine the paradise on earth when I was prepubescent. A place where I can play with lion!

The day I had my first erection, I don't know why, this asexual picture of the the NWOE fall dramatically in my esteem.

This is a so childish view of what happiness is, that, now, I still don't understand how adult people can fall in that!

I noticed that more and more, on a large bunch of subjects! It's quite funny.

Before, they had always a good reason to say "yes" or "no", changes of answers included.

Now, I get the impression that, they even don't bother no more to find arguments, and that they just answer "Maybe, maybe not"

What percentage of the population are gay?

by fulltimestudent in

jw

during the long debate on the question of gay marriage, there have been many competing answers to the question of, "how many people are gay?".

a very anti-gay christian minister in sydney, the reverend fred nile, (who is also a member of the state parliament) claims that the percentage is as low as 1%.. some university (u.of new south wales) research in sydney has suggested 5%, but the authors of the study cautioned that there was a problem in the fact that an unknown number of respondents would likely not admit to being gay.. there are other problems in asking the question.

for example, what does being gay mean?

coalize

In fact, the rate of gay people is almost the same as the rate of gay dogs.

And the same as the rate of gay cats.

And the same as the rate of gay horses.... etc..

Geoffrey Jackson compares waiting for Armageddon to waiting for Brazil to score a goal against Argentina!

And in this, one more time, lousy allegory, who plays the role of the german team?

Because everybody know the more fundamental rule of football : "Football is a game you play at eleven, and at the end, the germans win"

My thoughts on the RC 2015

by StarTrekAngel in

having endured three days of dashing attempts at further indoctrination, i feel the need to write up some of the stuff i left with.

it is just good therapy.. right away the change was noticeable in the air.

the assembly hall in la feria, tx still smells like new.

Yes It's really fascinating how they spoke so much about doubt. When it's about doubtful person, you have only two choice :

1. Trying to convince them (with proof and arguments) that their doubt are superfluous

2. Trying everything (especially by blaming) to make them feel guilty about the fact they have doubts.

And, no surprisingly, WTBTS'GB choose the second choice. Like usually!
