  i've been lurking around these parts for a while and thought it was time to make a post, although one or two of you have come across me when i wandered into chat a few weeks back.

  just a quick intro: .

  i'm early 30's, was involved with the dubs since birth, but made the break when i was 18 to go to university (culture shock!).

  You are EX-JWs because you want to live an immoral life!

  by Sirona in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  many jehovah's witnesses believe what they've been told about ex-witnesses.

  they say that exjws simply want to live an immoral life.

  they say that exjws cannot live up to "jehovah's standards".

  Actually, I have grown alot. I'm learning to be more reasonable and balanced. Something the WTS doesn't offer. Immorality can be a 'knee-jerk' reaction because of this.
  
  If there are no victims to our actions, I say live and let live.

  Did the WTS make an atheist out of you?

  by JH in

  shouldn't a religion bring people closer to god?

  it would seem that many became atheist after being deceived by the wts.

  unlike other religions, the wts was very precise in what was to happen during the 20th century.

  No. I'm sure the WTS likes it when those who leave do become atheists. Then they can wag thier tongue out saying.....See we told you so.
  
  Disclaimer: No offence to those who have become atheists. Totally understandable.

  orlando, fla. -- a central florida woman was fired from her job after eating "unclean" meat and violating a reported company policy that pork and pork products are not permissible on company premises, according to local 6 news.

  " holfeld asked.

  "we do, we can," kweli said.

  Legally, she probably has a case. Morally/ethically, if she was aware of the verbal agreement why did she choose to eat the pork? Somethin doesn't add up. How long was she employed? 10 months? Decides to have some bacon for lunch one day, after almost a year? First offence for her? Sounds fishy!! Or porky!!!

  i've never been one to believe in all of that hocus pocus crap, but i am now convinced.

  seen it with my very own eyes.

  there it was - a new thread started (heaven forbid that i should even mention the thread topic, much less the content) and then, in what would seem like no time at all - whoooof gone.

  Hi Sunspot,

  Well, if you're asking for thoughts....

  IMPO man-made organizations are just that....man-made. In the letters of Paul, we can read there was a framework for worship put into place for the new Christan faith. Was this the way Christans would worship down through the centuries? Or, was it to show how to gather in an orderly way? Or, was Paul stating what he thought the new faith should worship like? I don't know, just more questions. LOL

  But, seeing that the early church was to be infiltrated with false prophets also....I question if there was to be one true physical (corporeal) organization that God approves of. IMPO....the identifying factor is love. What type of person we are, amongst the world we live in. Love should be the motivating factor for our worship. Spiritual not physical. That to me is what the truth is. It's personal, not organizational. Just my opinion here.
