this site is such a great and valuable resource and simon is to be commended for running it for so long.
when i first came i was in such a bad state and really needed support and friendship.
so many posters commented on my threads and showed genuine care some are real life friends, some are facebook friends, some i talk to on the phone and some are forum friends.. i have just realised though that everyone online is not your friend.
rebelfighter:
Please take this as constructive criticism. You do have some very good post with some very good points. I can also come across very stern at times when I need to in my line of business and my clients understand what is being said must be followed.
I too can be an a-hole though I justify it when the other person is being really dense and offensive. I do take to constructive criticism though.

For the sake of Hades I don't know why you, Kate, got seven dislikes for your first post. But I'm glad to see you're doing better.
if you could go back in time and tell yourself one thing about jws would you do it?
and what would you choose to say to yourself?
do you think you could have convinced yourself not to get baptised if you chose the right thing to say?
1914 would have been enough for me.
" you will never grow old..." a more grievous lie is hard to imagine.
i heard this one first in 1957. i was 6. my mother had just converted.
i heard it many times after that.
Yes, Mark. Thank you.

You're going to grow old and gray
And if you ever have children so will they
So remember me on this very day
When in defiance of your false prophet
I lift up my voice and say
You, your children and their grandchildren
Are going to grow old and gray
All of you who follow the Watchtower way
Do not look upon tomorrow with conceit and arrogance
For you will be humbled, bowing, no more haughty stance
Just remember me on that future day
When you finally have grown old and gray
Remember your foolish lie
When it's time for you to die
i have a favor to ask.
i need some information found in a watchtower that i can't seem to find in my library.
today, the watchtower teaches that the governing body is the faithful slave.
Finkelstein: Really VI, did he say that ???
Yes, I shitteth you not. Angus Stewart asked him but it seems that he did not have the documentation to contradict Jackson's damned lie.

And Geoffrey Jackson told the ARC that it would be presumptuous of them to claim they're God's channel of communication.
I hate to point out the fly in the ointment but the rhyming line "Kevin get to heaven" is not JWish correct.
I like the ending. I actually knew of a 14 year old JW girl who took a relative's car and crashed it.
shouldn't they say thanks for" holding down the fort" until we take over?.
nowwhat?: "why would God and Jesus hate the united nations?"
Because the Witchtower says so. Now go back to sleep.
so again we go to the quality of evidence used by the wt.. you can read the article here - https://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/awake-no5-2016-october/did-jesus-really-exist/.
you see the wt refer to experts with quotes.
as is usually the case the credentials are not represented, just that they are experts (so take their word).
Did Jesus Really Exist?
Of course he existed; why everyone knows he was white with a trim Western style beard.
