  Add your own oxymoron

  by Kenneson in

  2. friends

  according to webster's an oxymoron is a combination of contradictory or incongruous words.

  here's an opportunity to add some of your favorite ones.

  i'll start it off.. why are a "wise man" and a "wise guy" opposites?.

  darcy--

  just be carefule that u r not trying to be a "witness" in name only just in case they might be right and can gain salvation.....cuz having a thinking mind will eventually end u up out of the organization

  do u openly discuss ur "unorthodox" ideas with those in the cong, more specifically the elders?

  just be really really careful if being df'd is not ur goal

  congregations disbanded

  by Fleshybirdfodder in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  not sure if it is the correct terminology, but i've heard of a few instances where the society had to step in and completely "delete" a congregation because of issues with incompetent elders and out of control publishers.

  i've never heard specifics.

  does this actually happen?

  i know how opinionated you all are so dont kill me....just wanted to bring up an interesting thought i had.....not that this necessarily shows my beliefs, but in an effort to still try to find myself and discover the truth, it is something i have been pondering for quite some time now.....

  so, if the only law we need to follow is to show love to one another.....

  "Loving your neighbor as yourself" is a much larger statement than most people choose to realize

  thats why i was wondering if all other "rules" are void due to this one command of "love" because it so much more than just "showing" love it is about "being" love

  Anyone like me....

  not feeling like there life's been affected that negatively by their involvement with jw's?.

  i ask because while i do believe being raised a jehovahs witness has probably done me some considerable emotional damage, i still can't imagaine it hurt me anymore (and in a lot of cases i'm sure it did far less damage) than the average non jw upbringing.

  i had no debilitating diseases, no broken family, kind and loving parents etc...you get my point though?.

  Anyway, I met some good JW's and some loathsome ones in my time but the same goes the people in my life since and I have been left feeling pleased that I have some sense of spirituality even if I'm very wary of where to direct it!

  well.....i would have to say that being a witness has made me what i am today.....i am honest, loving, and not into gossip....however i have a very overactive libido, which is what got me in trouble in the first place.

  i am not a whiner and living in my past.....i just have alot emotional/spiritual issues with being thrown out of the organization that i have found a place where ppl are like-minded and can help me answer my various questions without feeling like i am going to die at every moment...

  i vacillate from wondering if i will die at armageddon to i am fine, i believe in god and he loves me.....it is a constant healing

  To me this implies I must love myself first before I can love others. Not love in a selfish way but in a self-caring way, with honor and respect for who we are as individuals.

  And that is so far from what the WTS teaches.

  so very true and very comforting......today i feel like i will die at armageddon....tomorrow i will be pefectly fine again and wonder why i was so depressed the day before.....

  How many themes are covered in the WT articles?

  i love data.

  especially in charts.

  i can visually "see" things that i just can't by relying on memory and current perceptions.. i thought an interesting peice of data to track over time is the "type" of articles published by the wt.
