The "TRVTH" may not set you Free

by Amazing in

does "trvth" set one free?

truth can certainly promote and assure freedom ... but the "key" to the jailhouse door is not some ultimate "trvth" that we must find.

some argue that theists, deist, or atheist are free due to some "trvth" or that they are all hypocrits because they debate one another.

VERY COOL JWs!- my trip to Montana!

it was a wonderful event that took place on the top floor of the sheraton hotel in billings, montana.. now, this wasn't your typical jw marriage.

in fact, it wasn't even remotely a jw marriage or wedding.

a little background:.

Glad you had a bitchin' time at your nephews wedding. Maybe the Montana dubs are different than others, because in my 15 years of dubdom, I've never heard of a wedding like this. Maybe you just have a super-cool family. I'm definitely looking forward to the pictures.

my future brother in law (futurebro) is a great guy, as ive mentioned.

he really cares about people, doesnt want to hurt anyones feelings.

yet, now he was trapped between doing the right thing, and possibly losing his parents.

Ashi:

Excellent story....I find alot of what you are post very similar to the things I experienced. Also, you said:

"I always considered the witnesses like those kids in high school, you know, that clique that you always wanted to belong to. Well, you finally get in, and you realize what assholes they are. Then you leave. Like children, they don’t talk to you anymore, because you’re not exactly like them. The Witnesses are the same way……displaced High School kids, still pissed that everybody won’t listen to them, that their club isn’t the best."

The above statement is a good analogy. You put into words exactly what I've always disliked about the JWs but could never explain. Keep 'em coming. I'm really enjoying your story.

Why did we believe such stupidity?

by anglise in

jw
friends

another brilliant example of circular reasoning from the wtbts.

*** jv 704 31 how chosen and led by god ***.

chapter 31. how chosen and led by god.

ThiChi quoted:

"I remember at the very last meeting I attended the WT conductor said, “if we were now in a court of law, it would be proven without a doubt that Jehovah’s Witnesses are the one true religion.”

That has got to be the stupidest thing I've ever heard. I've never attending any other church that pats itself on the back so much.

Do JW's Actually Believe This Stuff?!?

by Mister Biggs in

this was just forwarded to me.. (we need more comets to help take all of the stupid people away from among us!).

this comes from the branch in canada....... in england one of our blind brothers had a seeing-eye dog that would.

faithfully guide and take him to the meetings each week.

AMarie

LOLOL at TR. They just don't know when to stop, do they. To do such a thing to sweet, obedient Rover is just sick!

I must agree, that was a pretty dumb story. I can see all the dubs sitting in the hall smiling, deeply touched at how Jehover brings us into the troof.

by Amazing in

part 18: the last stand my brothers gift .

i had almost forgotten about my brothers gift.

the amalgamated wedding was now well over 2 years in the past.

AMarie

Amazing:

From the beginning to the end, your story was....Amazing. At times I laughed, at other times I was on the edge of my chair. Seriously, you need to publish this material, or at least make a personal book for future generations to read. I loved it! Thank you for sharing so much of your life with us. It was very enjoyable.

AMarie

P.S. I really hope you post those pictures. I would love to put faces with all of the names.
