THE NEWS IS BIGGER THAN DATELINE, BBC, CBC, ETC.

by AndersonsInfo in

if i told you that something bigger is on the horizon than dateline, bbc, cbc, sunday (australia), and all other tv programs which exposed the sexual child abuse cover-up by watchtower in 2002-2003, would you believe me?

have i ever misled you?

i'll answer that--no!

I agree Dorayakii, some will never leave...and I don't believe the WT will go away completely anytime soon.

But, these things do sometimes have a cumulative effect. While many are still attending, among these are those who are still inwardly reeling from the recent revelations (i.e. UN, child molestation, generation change), and those who are leery about the recent education stance. JWs are about pretense,...pretense that everything is fine in paradise. But there is only so much that any ethical or thinking person can take.

If this is major, it might just be more than the needle that is needed to break the camel's back.

I dont know what the news is, but if it is what i'm guessing and a few others have suggested, I would suggest preparing yourself to be of some sort of support to some pretty devastated souls.

As much as I'm hoping for the news, in reality I hate the prospect of seeing my parents especially deal with what could be some very tramatic revelations. They've given their life to this cult.

Most meaningful to me, from the standpoint of what might affect my family, would be 1: blood, 2: financial.

Me too..and in that order.

I think I might have an idea, but I don't want to jinx it even though I think its already been hinted at. But only a couple of things could evoke more emotion and reaction than money and the misuse of it. I have my hopes on one of them.

As a general comment though, what most people cannot tolerate, is hypocrisy. Most JWs even if misguided can't stand it, and people who are not can't stand it either.

Actually, I'm about as far away from organized religion as you can get...been burned enough for 2 lifetimes.

I just wonder about those who really do go for this stuff. I tolerate religion and use it as a study in human nature, but this kind of stuff....i just shake my head

Learn about the visit of Jesus Christ to ancient America.

www.josephsmith.com I won't even comment on what I think as I try to live and let live now, and at most just shake my head...but I have to ask rhetorically, is someone intentionally trying to make it hard for me to like religion? Axelspeed

The Watchtower's view of Christmas

by Jeffro in

there is an article featured on the watchtower official site about how christmas has lost christ.

what exactly is their problem with this?

they have been trying to tell people for years that jesus wasn't born at christmas time, and then they get upset when other people behave the same way.

Axelspeed

I find it interesting that on one hand the WT finds it within itself to allow certain celebrations, such as those involving pinatas, because in their own words, they have lost religious significance and so are allowable.

But then in the next breath condemn other celebrations, i.e. Chrismas, because they arent religious enough.
