hey!
shotguns post got me thinking.
post your story is 3 sentences or less, if possible.
I was born a Jehovah's Witness to pioneer parents in 1957.I 'got voted off the island' in 1992 because i didn't sell enough Watchtowers.
My story on line www.DannyHaszard.com Danny Haszard Bangor Maine, former member of the abusive Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses Rockland Massachusetts USA.
if this has already been posted, i apologise for repeating it.
in the july wt, the writers have come up with the new theory that islam is the new king of the north.
i haven't seen the article yet, .
'Absolute power corrupts absolutely'. In an unaccountable man made organization.
My thoughts on the Watchtower's De facto infallibility...
In 1993 {I remember the primary study article} the Watchtower. had the gall to assert that the( now defunct) mighty Soviet empire..The Watchtowers indomitable 'king of the north'...proclaimed as such in countless watchtower 'divine' publications would be reinstated {in 1993 they said it } as the nemesis of the 'king of the south',(united states,) and go forth and ,'eat much flesh;!! Well, the poor Russian folks can't even feed themselves...
It's like someone said ,'there just may be more truth in marvel comics then there is in the pages of the Watchtower'.....
At least Daffy Duck ain't killing people.

do you try not to lie?

The Watchtower's Bogus Blood ban.It is so twisted,( to obstruct lawsuits ).Selected, JW elders receive special,( esoteric ) indoctrination just to try to make sense of it.
Remember,always do that, 'regression analysis'.Just where the heck did it all come from ?
........Well,'detox' Joe Rutherford,got a 'burr' on his butt,back in the 1940's about blood.They knew it was bogus back then.It's an overextension of the old testament kosher law,which DOESN'T apply to new testament Christians..
They thought that the end of the world was a coming back then,(1940ish).Sooooooooo, there wouldn't be much of a body count causality.
Now with Blood on their hands,and the murder of thousands of innocent minor children,how can they account for the body count, if they repeal it outright now?
More importantly,the WT$ would be sued,for mega-bucks,for all the wrongful death lawsuits.
So,as you can see before your very own eyes,they are eroding away gradually the dogma,eventually the day will come,when "new light" will "flash up" from Jehovah.and it will be dissolved.
By the way the chief symptom of my 28 year horror show with Bleeding ulcerative colitis is, profuse bloody bowel movements on the order of 20-30 x's a day.It created enormous stress for me to know i could bleed to death at any moment.Yes, i 'took my stand on blood',and never compromised.

pretty much says it all....poor kid, rotl..... http://www.smlinks.com/sotw/why/.
Go ahead morph me.

i think when we post here we are rubing each other by a kind of energy that seems to be moving us in a good direction,, .
it is very weird but has anybody else felt this??
Roger that,I was just saying to my mate,mental exercise has been found to forestall alzheimers,and we have fun too.Well living is the best revenge and we kill the enemy besides.
Making me cybersavy too.
.......gadgets coming to canada!.
i've been looking round for a holiday for this summer, and found for virtually the same price i could fly to canada and go backpacking.
i know i want to go down to niagara falls, but i'm still looking at all the guides to see which other places i want to go to, and working out if i'm best off hiring a car or using the bus/train to get around.

The biggest problem I have with promoting my apostate Jehovah's Witness countercult website:Watchtower Whistle Blower www.DannyHaszard.com
IS LACK OF INTEREST I tell you the truth, 90% of the general population already knows that JW's and the WT are a wacko cult.
my mother told me that the co gave a talk on how a spider spins his web and it can take a very long time for the web to be made but just like that--- before you know it---it can catch its prey and devour it.
it's the same with the world wide web, the internet.
there are reports, according to the co, that in new york, a very prominent "anointed" man was disfellowshipped and he has his owm website where he has answered many jws questions.
I started out in 1992 with my apostate picket signs and bumper stickers.The WWW was still in it's infancy.I can remember going to the prestigious Boston Copley place Library. The Library had 6 PC Internet terminals that went unused because they were practically useless.Slow logins and frequent disconnects made it unusable Right around this time i met with David Reed, Joe Rizoli,Steve Hassan and heard about Randy Watters in California.I was still bent on my old fashioned picket signs and bumper stickers.In 1997 I composed a 'squeal' letter to all the 50 states regarding the Watchtower's tax evasion : http://dannyhaszard.com/taxletter.htm Two years ago my own site went up:Watchtower Whistle Blower www.DannyHaszard.com The WWW is an effective delivery system.Devastating inroads are being made against the Watchtower cult on the information superhighway. Knowledge is power you are busted buddy!
