here is an example of what passes for thought provoking poetry among the dubs.
(try not to hurl).... of all my years as a witness, the times were not always good.. too many mistakes were being made, the brothers not doing what they should.. as i look back now there are times, i can recall, when i did not even look forward to going to the kingdom hall.. the brothers showed no love.. they didn't seem to care.. the elders were unyielding, demanding and unfair.. meetings were dull and boring; field service was a chore.. there wasn't much of a "pioneer spirit,".
while going from door to door.. it would not get any better, as i hoped it would.. i knew the day was coming when i would leave jehovah's house for good.. but happily, it's so different now, jehovah has been so kind.. he has allowed me a wonderful congregation to find.. the spirit is so strong here.. the brothers really care.. i couldn't be more happy if i were anywhere!.
UNBELIEVEABLE!!!!!

if the rank and file members of jehovahs witnesses reject the watchtower's thinking on bible doctrine in some way, they are considered apostate.. yet the governing body of j.ws, themselves have rejected teachings of previous governing body members who have long since died and have proceeded to change interpreatation on things many times over,from russell to fred franz.
guess what they call it..........apostasy?.
no, this is called new light.. .
I agree with you Mac.....truth, in it's simplest form...broken down from a compound into a basic element. If only JW's could see this. How could I explain this to a JW, who is currently having a difficult time in the org? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

does anyone know where to find a source for old watchtower magazines (20-25 years)?
thanks...
I took a look at Ebay...they only have 'Consolation' magazines from the 1940's...and some books, most of them 1970's and above...most are first printing, some 1930's and 40's books....not really a big selection. Just thought I'd let you know. Good Luck in your search.

she has written a new book that is being published by prometheus books and is being released in january 2002. she will be doing upcoming radio interviews to publicize the book, and i'll post more information when i have it.

i wonder exactly how many xjw's will be going back in due to the wtc.. to actually admit that is the reason to go back, wow.
what a leap of faith-"oh look the great trib has started id better hurry off to meeting.
" too late now anyway you bozos.
I think it's pitiful. Absolutely pitiful! Any that are scurrying back because of the terrorist attacks, is sadly mistaken. Do they really think that if God actually exists, and the JW's have "the truth", that God is going to be fooled? Of course not! If God is what everyone says he is, then he can read into hearts, and you will not be saved because you run back out of fear. Those who left, for whatever reasons, already made their decision.
But, personally....I don't believe any of it, and if it turns out that this is the GT, and the end comes....I just want one to ask God one ? before he sends me plumeting into Gehenna.....How the hell were we supposed to believe it was the truth?....everyone and their mother claimed to be the truth, and every single religion on the face of this planet has the same flaws.

it is reported that a special meeting has been held of all the district overseers in the usa and the new york city circuit overseers at which it was announced that the field ministry would now be changed until further notice, effective immediately.
for the time being no literature is to be offered or the suggested offer.
the publishers are to advise each householder that due to recent events we are not engaging in our regular work, we are offering comfort where needed from the bible to help cope with the tragedy.
Very...very interesting.

Thank you for this interesting post. I think now people can understand what goes through the minds of these crazed terroristic people.
Sickening......just absolutely nauseating.
