I think....that You Know just got an image boost from none of his own doing.

Lefty/YK & Any Other JW's - ???
by pettygrudger ini'm extremely confused by the answers in some of your posts.
you keep refering to "new light" and have also explained why the wtbts has made errors along the way, even though it has caused the "stumbling" of thousands.
your logic makes sense except for 1 questions that continues to go through my mind.. although all of god's messengers, apostles, disciples, etc.

How long out? Why still here?
by hillary_step insome posters to this board, who perhaps are bored posters, have been out of the wts for a long while, some for decades.
i think i understand why you still feel the need to meet here but just wished to hear from you personally.. how long have you been out?
why do you still feel the need to discuss and involve yourselves with jw issues?

I'm not out for long, but it is interesting to talk to people who understand such a bizzarre past....people can talk about their favorite christmas, or the most wonderful birthday they ever had, or some milestone having to do with proms, lovers, etc.....there seems to be a 20 year lull in my life in which nothing happened. People don't give a damn if I think it was bad; they just don't get the pain of losing out on some of the best years of life. That's why it is nice to be here.
I also agree that Fredhall is a riot.

the poster known as greatgrooves2002 is surely toast after this one...lol!!!.

You can't handle the truth
by teejay inmy kid sister (42 years-old) is still in good standing (i guess) but is very inactive -- hasn't been to a meeting in years.
however, she's very supportive of the organization and dislikes any negative information i pass along to her about the society, so i don't.. recently, an email dialog we've had on a topic not related to the society has led her to the slightly unnerving realization that jusssst maybe she hasn't been told the whole truth about 'the truth.
' since years ago i gave her my personal copy of crisis of conscience with zero positive affect (not only did she not read a single page but destroyed it), i am still reluctant to help her out of the current mists of her confusion and ignorance.

The only truth they are concerned with is the fuzzy, cuddley new world they look forward to. Everything else to them is inspired of Satan and such....what tripe.

my rule for this page was it had to be a definent, 100% for certain rule with no way of swaying it's truth.
in 2years time i've come up with one rule so far on that page.. 1) talk is cheap; so keep it simple.. i think i may be ready to add rule #2:.

They're at it again!
by RR inthe watchtower, october 22, 2001, page 22, column 2, paragraph 2:.
loyaty to jehovah also includes loyalty to his organization.
necessarily, over the years there have been corrections and adjustments to our understanding of certain scriptures.

Between The WTS And The Deep Blue Sea
by hillary_step inmany people leave the wts after a short period, often only measured in weeks, of theological discovery.
it is not an easy matter to recognize that the belief system upon which your whole emotional persona has been built has serious flaws, some sinister in nature, and often this leads to a rapid confrontation with the elders.
letters, most of them depressingly repetitive in content hit service desks in local branches worldwide, a few weeks later a sterile announcement is made in a congregation and the apostate conveyor belt shifts forward slightly, waiting for its next victim.. suddenly many find themselves outside in the cold, with little support, often without friends, sometimes with fatally wounded marriages and above all a crippling sense of confusion as to what one should now adhere to as a belief system.. my plea in this post if for all those caught in that no-mans-land, between the wts and the deep blue sea, not to play by the rules thrust upon you, but to plot your own passage over the seas of what is your life, and yours alone.
