JW UN Rumor

by ivanatahan in

yes, i have returned.. a short recap of major events since my inactivity began: i finally revealed to my parents that i do not believe the same thing they believe in (after i was caught smooching my girlfriend by a family of good-for-nothing pieces of human feces), and of course they view themselves as failed parents who were unable to brainwash their children.

that is, of course, the reason why they are much more controlling over what i do in my life now (my mom even tried having a "bible study" with me).

i told them everything and i was unable to dent their jw imposed mind force field, while also exposing a clear jw misunderstanding of probability, evolution, history, logic/reason, and the big bang theory.. in a conversation i had with my mother a few weeks back (i also heard this rumor before, but my mother told me it again), she mentioned how the un held a summit of all religions and when the jws presented themselves and mentioned their preaching work warning of the coming un ban on religion (referring to an international organization who can't even prevent genocide, much less impose human rights), a un official came up to the jw who presented the cult and told him to "speed up the preaching work", because they plan on doing the ban soon.. it saddens me to think of how ignorant jws are in relation to the principles upon which the un was founded and being unaware that the un at least has some sense as to not ban religion, but this rumor, as ridiculous as it is, needs to be put at rest.

i heard that many silly stories and myths when i was a dub----in the 60's. its hardly surprising so many dubs will listen to--believe--and repeat all that nonsense----after all--they accept all the other crap the wts dump on them.

What has the Watchtower reading material done to YOU?

by The Rebel in

the reason i ask is because i realise i couldn't go on reading watchtower material.

i have discovered it did something to my mind no other literature has done to me before.

it had turned me in to a person without a heart, or soul, and made me in humane and distant from other humans who didn't share the w.t world view.. i now feel ashamed of my childish behaviour, and i have learnt :-.

50 years ago--as a teenager--i found it difficult to read watchtower print. i even got reading glasses. but i could easily read anything else. i think it was my brain refusing to allow itself to be corrupted.

the wonderful world wde witnessing work----or is it ?

by stan livedeath in

hiding behind the literature stand in a litter strewn empty shop doorway.. .

is this what the witnessing has now dumbed down to ?.

who's bringing reproach on jehovah's name now ?.

what totally pisses me off about the watchtower society is----with this huge volunteer labour force-----they could organise to be of REAL value to mankind----anything from help for the poor and needy----to specialised practical help in 3rd world countries----refugee crisis management etc--in other words helping hands alongside the red cross---sally army etc.

in other words--earn the respect and praise of the world----a real witness to their loving god---instead of sinking to be the laughing stock which is all their own making.
