Same here. One thing I prefer with the Internet are the audio pronunciations. Beats phonetic script any day.

Do you use a dictionary?
by compound complex inin my work, i rely upon google for quick answers on definition (denotation), pronunciation (audio), etymology, shades of meaning (connotation), etc.. what i really mean is, do you use an actual unabridged websters, the one you get a hernia lifting?
i ask because, last night, i was tired of fighting with my two ailing computers and decided to pull the big book off the shelf.
it was great, hearkening back to olden times -- childhood -- when i read real books and periodicals and wrote unknown words into a notepad (the paper sort) and pored over old noah's offerings.. your thoughts?.

Got a sense of humor? Help!
by rebel8 innathan, outlaw.....all of you hilarious people...this means you!
i believe in humor as an effective way to bring attention to an important topic.
humor has made many people aware of the true nuttiness of the jw cult in the past (sign language masturbation video—went viral).. amazon allows humorous reviews and even showcases them.

Even though there is a place for humor, I would rather put in serious reviews on most of their books.

How do you feel about the expression "The Truth"?
by stuckinarut2 init's amazing how the expression "the truth" has become such an ingrained term used by witnesses.. "we have 'the truth'".
"is he 'in the truth'?".
most here have found out so many facts about the organisation, and felt the effects of being "gut-punched" as we realised these facts.. so how do you feel about the expression "the truth" now?.

That phrase is what got me disfellowshipped. I had told the elders that they should not be calling themselves "The Truth" even if they had true doctrines because that phrase applied to Jesus alone (John 14:6).

To you I have to say
You're going to grow old and gray
Following the Watchtower way
You're going to grow old and die
Listening to the Watchtower lie
Remember me on your last and final day
Upon your death bed on which you lay
You've finally grown old and soon will die

Skin,
Is this really happening? Can any non JW.Org people verify that this is happening? If real, is this also happening to other religions in this area?
Pentecostals and religions other than the Russian Orthodox Church are being persecuted even to the point of having their buildings destroyed and being put in catch-22 predicaments.

I wipe my filthy, diarrhea stained a$$ on the beard of the demon god who wrote Deuteronomy 22:13-21; 28-29; 21:7-11; and Numbers 15:32-36.
By the way, I don't like him either.

Jehovah God is Real
by TakeOffTheCrown inthere are many on this site that do not believe that jehovah truly exists; that he is not a real being.
but, he is as real as next breath you draw into your nostrils.. some of you say that there is no evidence that he exists.
yet, none of you can prove that he does not exits.. cofty, (you come to mind), i appreciate that you have stated, without reservation, that you do not believe that god exists.. yet, you cannot prove it.. hope in jehovah..

2016 Election getting family members disfellowshipped
by Ryan007 inhttp://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2016/11/21/election-rhetoric-getting-people-uninvited-thanksgiving/94208524/.
sarah-jane cunningham knew that her facebook posts about the election were rubbing her family the wrong way, but she didn’t realize the posts would get her uninvited from thanksgiving dinner.. the 19-year-old said her mother called a week before thanksgiving and confronted her about the facebook posts regarding president-elect donald trump.. “she asked me if i was going to be disrespectful to my family, and i told her that it could work either way, cunningham said.
"if the things i am saying are disrespectful to trump supporters, the things they are saying are also disrespectful to me.”.

Ryan007,
Just so you know, I'm not an apostate Jehovah's Witness.
I don't agree with the viewpoints of apostate Jehovah's Witness. To me, they're antagonistic.
So what are you and what are you doing here?
From the terror and riots of Black Lives Matter to the Obama administration's policy on intimate facilities in public schools, when Trump got elected, the next morning, I was walking on sunshine.
You too buddy. You're going to get the best president that rubles can buy.
I'm just taking a second to say, you people don't bother me anymore.
We don't bother you anymore? Seems that you bothered enough to make it an issue.
This is your first thread; we don't know anything about you. Usually some one introduces himself and tells us a bit about his experience with the JWs. So who are you?
