The main thiings that made you grasp the WTS fraud.
by greendawn in

what were the main things that made you realise the wts is a fraudulent organisation the real aim of which is to conceal important truths from its members while cleverly manipulating them to work for its interests?

they have secrets that they do not reveal to the r&f.

for me it was the way the gb treated the other "anointed" as non entities in the org, it made me realise that they are power lusting self serving wolves with fred franz being the classic example.

i don't know how i ever doubted that intelligent design was correct!

after watching a video involving kirk cameron, i now see the error of my ways, and will be tithing 50% of my income to the church every month out of contrition.. .

you want to know the mighty argument that changed my views, and my life, forever?

Do you believe in perfection?
by LittleToe in

if something meets the standard for which it was designed, is that a reasonable definition of perfection?.

like when the first rudimentary wheel was built, and was surely perfect for the job?.

hello everyone, been browsing the forum for quite a while now(about a year) and decided its time to post.

i'm male, just turned 36 on the first of april, i've been in a the process of fading for about two years now, not that easy having come from a witness family.

i've been in doubt about this religion for most of my life, but finally built up the courage to stop going to the meetings, finding out now how big and beautiful this world is and realizing how much i missed out on "real" life!.....i started to fade about the time i was being pushed, yes pushed into becoming a ms. i did not want to have that duty, and i say duty, not "privelege" as they would say because thats what it is, a duty!

an "Adult's" View.

here i sit, in my public library, typing away a computer from a hot nasty seat.. but i wouldn't be anywhere else in the world right now.

(okay, maybe a couple of other places).

i have to be at work in 40 minutes, and its a 15 minute drive from here, so lets not expect a novel of a post.. yesterday was my birthday, and they did a little cake thing for me and all that which was nice, but otherwise, nothing is new.. my mother seems to be cooling off, but lets just say that the "excrement flinging fan" hasn't been turned off yet.. i'm 18 now, and nothing is different.
