what is your definition of a friend?.

i believe you have one or two friends through out a lifetime.

all others are just people you know.

vitty

I thought I had friends, but they turned out to be just aquantances. Now I count my true friends as my non Jw sisters and my husband.

And im happy with that

Suggest Topics That Would Jar JWs/ "Lurkers"/ & Society Troubleshooters

by minimus in

jw

we know that the society uses these forums to get the "newest light" and oftentimes head off potential disasters.

they blunted much of the un debacle within the jw community.

there are jws that scan this site too.

I missed this thread at first, but looked for it when minimus started a new one and mentioned mylean

This is a really funny thread when you read it from the begining

Everyone getting hot under the collar and my-----(forgot her name) rambling on and on oblivious and without a care in the world. Great fun .

Stupid Analogies/Illustrations/examples you hear dubs say over and over

by doodle-v in

what are some stupid analogies that you here dubs use all the time to explain their faulty, destructing teachings?

or maybe ones you've used in the past that when you think about them now, make you cringe?.

here are a few that come to mind:.

But doesnt this show we are UNITED, we must have the truth we all hear the same thing wherever we live.

Whether you live in a mud hut or in western country, we all know about the DENTED PAN, the FIVE FINGERS or CROSSING THE CROCODILE INFESTED WATERS TO GO TO AN ASSEMBLE .

whew---------------and we all know the internet is evil.

There is no graceful way to back out ...

by ljwtiamb in

i find it interesting that the chickens have come home to roost for wts.. just as they have allowed no dignified way to exit the org, without disgrace, there seems to be no way for them to gracefully apologize for past (errors???).

just think of the recent mass exodus of faithful that has come about with each major doctrine change.

so many have been ruined by devoting their lives to the gb, that even if there was a sincere effort to correct things, i believe that the vast majority of the current membership would just revolt.. it's just a matter of time before the entire house of cards comes tumbling down.. so, whaddya think?.

vitty

Last year when I started learning the truth about the truth, I thought the WTs end would be iminant, but now I realize, this has been going on for decades. The truth is the majority if JWs know nothing of the scandles, child abuse or the UN, and if they do they dont care.

If they can get away with the 1975 fiasco and survive do you really think that a little thing like the doctrine change and the UN thing will do much harm??

The WT will go on and on and on unfortunately.

i want this to be light hearted, butttttttttttt.

is there a difference between the ones here who where brought up in the the truth and the ones who fell for it as an adult.

what made me think was a few comments on other threads like "it wasnt my fault i was a dub, i was brought up in it".

I myself feel very guilty for all you who have had a horrible time as kids, and I understand all of you who for whatever reason, got sucked into this cult.

As for myself im in both camps, I was brought up into it, my family fell away when I was 9 or so, then cos I still believed it went back in when I was 24. Now half my family are back in, and my adult daughter all because of me.

The difference im talking about is that if you where brought up in it, and for whatever reason are now out, you still have a life, maybe small children who will never have to be IN. But you may be left with scars.

If you where an adult, like me, you will look back and feel you have wasted the best part of your life. And maybe have kids still in. Its not a competition what what do you think is worse??????
