  What's Your Opinion of the Internet?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the watctower society demonizes the internet.

  there have been many unsubstantiated reports that have been proven false on the 'net.

  and there have been some very helpful sources here.

  The Internet is evil and you shouldn't use it because Satan is there in virtual form! But if you're on it, we have a web page you go to.

  i left a brief message with my # - they actually called me back, in less than 24 hours.. we talked for about 30 minutes.

  i laid all my "gripes" right out on the table.

  the brother listened only offered me 1 scripture and even dignified me by saying i probably already knew it, but he would like to read it anyway.

  He even agreed that the treatment I've recieved at "gods people's" hands is WRONG and UNSCRIPTURAL, he even agreed that the CO and the WTS were wrong in not giving me a fair chance to voice my accusations in a recognized forum and for the matters to be settled
  
  I think all of us have heard this before. I know I have. This is usually followed by the "wait on Jehovah" line and Jehovah will take care of it. Its the same canned response you will get from any elder.

  Have Fun Applying Scriptures To The Witnesses/Organization

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was thinking of how the watchtower always seems to be using a scripture and somehow applying it to themselves.

  let's take some bible verses or passages and have a little fun with making our own interpetation........example# 1.....matthew 25: 13, "keep on the watch, therefore, because you know neither the day nor the hour"......"keep on the watch" refers to our continuous reading of the watchtower magazines and watchtower publications.

  "you know neither the day or the hour" but the "faithful and discreet slave has insight into such matters and that is why we must always be on the alert and listen to them!.........example # 2.....mt.

  KJV 1 Kings 18:27 At noon Elijah mocked them, ?Yell louder. After all, he is a god; he may be deep in thought, or perhaps he stepped out for a moment or has taken a trip. Perhaps he is sleeping and needs to be awakened.?40 18:28 So they yelled louder and, in accordance with their prescribed ritual,41 mutilated themselves with swords and spears until their bodies were covered with blood.
  
  The Watchtower Version
  At noon the X-JW's mocked them, ?Yell louder. After all, the end is coming; it may be deep in thought, or perhaps it stepped out for a moment or has taken a trip. Perhaps it is sleeping and needs to be awakened.? 18:28 So the Governing Body yelled louder and, in accordance with their prescribed ritual,41 mutilated themselves by sticking their feet in their mouths with false predictions until their bodies were covered with blood.

  He would not discuss. "It's over. Done. Cancel everything."
  
  Ouch, that is what I am afraid will happen. I can only hope for the best.

  Anyway, what have you told your friends about being an ex-JW? Do you tell them from the beginning?

  was it not jehovah?s promise to never kill humans again by means of massive floods?

  i guess knocking on 100,000 deaths is just a minor slip-up.

  knowing the response of jw's to the horrible situation in asia and their reasoning of it, makes me feel indescribably sick in the stomach!

  I thought about this as the death count went higher and higher. This is the most poignant evidence that God doesn't care/exist.
  
  Worst of all, most of the dead were children because they weren't as fast and strong.
