University Application Personal Statement dilemma - Should I mention my jw past?

by will-be-apostate in

jw
friends

i am applying to chemical engineering course in the uk through ucas (a lot of things changed since i've posted last time).. i have a lot of skills i developed while regular pioneering, like public speaking skills, ability to reason (even if it's bs), presentational skills etc.. i feel it would boost my personal statement a lot, but i'm also afraid they would say "this guy beleives in god, and loves science, he must be creationist.

away with him".. how could i mention that i gave interviews front of thousands of people and did voluntary work in my hometown without giving a bad impression?.

i don't want to go into details and start explaining myself that "however i don't beleive in god", or something like that.

You are applying for an engineering course. Not the job of a lecturer or running a charity. Why would you mention it at all?

If any of them know about dubs they will say "let's not bother with him - witnesses always put their cult first before studies or college based activities. They dont want to contribute to the life and community of non witness students. In the bin!"

Saying you gave up da troof and no longer believe it labels you as a sucker for lost causes and a quitter. In the bin.

If you get an interview, they will notice your poise and demeanour and speaking ability anyway. If you are accepted, your other good qualities will also get noticed.

This weeks #2 & #3 talk on homosexuality

after a one year sucessful fade and no longer associated with any congreation, i was visiting my sister this week (who goes to the meeting to please her husband for now; i am slowly planting seeds though) and they decided to year this weeks midweek meeting via the telephone.

since i was a guest in her house, i sat with them in the living room to hear the meeting.

to my surprise (especially growing up as a gay jw with still alot of anger in my heart over how i was treated), the talks 2 and 3 where on, of course, homosexualiy.

The whole "fag" thing happens because an ignorant bunch of goat herders had only one purpose in their wandering about: BREEDING.

Ensure the food supply. Ensure the Tribes existence. In time some old fool of an Elder decided to say that their vicious Sky Spirit wants it this way.

By an accident of history the monotheistic cults survived until today. And their followers still say you can only be happy in penis-vaginaland in a state of breeder bliss.

1930 for 1?

Interesting as the Proclaimers book says that after 1918 the Bible Students came to realise that Christ "did not return(even invisibly) to the vicinity of the earth in 1914"

Preterism

by Chris Tann in

when i started to do my research concerning ttatt, i started to see the scriptures in a different light.

one thing i noticed is that when the epistles talk about the last days, christs presence, the ressurection to heaven; the writers were speaking specifically of their time, not some two thousand years later.

even when jesus speaks of his presence and the kingdom being established, he was talking to his disciples of that time and what they were soon to expect.

Stop hanging onto the idea these ignorant fishermen understood anything. Get out there and live your one and only life before you waste it debating delusions from 2 ooo years ago...

JW.ORG REPORTS THE WATCHTOWER RESPONSE TO EBOLA

by NAVYTOWN in

jw
friends

i just checked the jw.org website and noticed an article about the jw response to ebola.

as i suspected, the entire focus was on alerting and educating jw members about ebola.just like in other disaster situations, the jw organization almost exclusively assists it's own members, ignoring the general public.

it seems their main concern is keeping their members healthy so they can continue to spread the jw message door to door!!!

Jehoobie's solution? Kill somebody- as many as possible until the situation disappears.

That is always what happens. The world of disease and starvation will be gone forever once he has killed every last one of the diseased and starving.

Most Jdubs are nice people, not really evil - give us all a break from this

by hamsterbait in

.

hamsterbait

I am sick to death of hearing this. Their RELIGION makes them evil. None of the Jews smashing babies skulls were evil, they just did as they were told.

Evil is as evil does. How can you say somebody is not evil, they just do evil things?

from this argument sweet little Adolf Hitler did the whole thing by his angelic self. Nobody else helped - because nobody else was evil.

Give us a break. The evil things done by dubs are done by people who pretend to be sweet good and righteous, but willingly follow a hate filled creed, based on mass annihilation, just like the Nazis.

Be Honest About This Doctrinal Matter

by lambsbottom in

wife says she always thought the wt said that anyone alive at armageddon that did not get a chance to hear kingdom message may survive?

true?

references?.

hamsterbait

There was a Witchtower study in the mid 80s that said when Armageddon comes, nobody would have the excuse they never heard the message, because they should have been searching for it, if they had the right heart condition.
