  An interesting thought

  by mann377 in

  eliot said, more than fifty years ago: "half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important.

  they don't mean to do harm -- but the harm does not interest them.

  or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.

  As T.S. Eliot said, more than fifty years ago: "Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm -- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves." You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you MAD!

  WTBTS=relationship thief

  .

  how many of you out there have ever wondered "how many people did i never get to meet because of being a witness".. i for one,being raised ina ultra conservative jw family ask myself that.. everytime you missed out on various activities{outside the org},you miss out the chance of meeting great, interesting people.i for one don't have 1 friend left from the religion.so even if i met just 1 person that made a difference in my life,it would have been worth more than all that wasted time.. the wtbts knows what strings to pull to keep you from thinking outside the jw box.they destroy relationships before you could ever imagine begginning one..

  The WBTS has perfected the art of holding people spritural hostages! Once a person begins to think and ask questions about the doctrines and history of the org then they become a liability to the org. The only way they have found effective to hold people in the org is to use so call friends or friendships as fellow hostage takers. Once they suspect that you are a liability then the pressure from these friends are used as tools to readjust the offender's thinking.

  Have Fun Applying Scriptures To The Witnesses/Organization

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was thinking of how the watchtower always seems to be using a scripture and somehow applying it to themselves.

  let's take some bible verses or passages and have a little fun with making our own interpetation........example# 1.....matthew 25: 13, "keep on the watch, therefore, because you know neither the day nor the hour"......"keep on the watch" refers to our continuous reading of the watchtower magazines and watchtower publications.

  "you know neither the day or the hour" but the "faithful and discreet slave has insight into such matters and that is why we must always be on the alert and listen to them!.........example # 2.....mt.

  Try Revelation 22:18,19 or Daniel 11: 32 I would apply these scriptures to the BS the WTBS has been up to for so long.

  Masturbation reduces risk of prostate cancer?

  by melmac in

  source: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/3072021.stm .

  men could reduce their risk of developing prostate cancer through regular masturbation, researchers suggest.

  they say cancer-causing chemicals could build up in the prostate if men do not ejaculate regularly.

  bit of background.

  i grew up as a jw i left the church when i was 14 because a ministerial servant who was conducting a one on one baptism study with me said that i couldn't ballance my dreams of being a professional singer with the so called "truth".

  i stopped the study and told my mom i no longer wanted to be a witness.

  i bet you didn't kniw that hotel managers lied to get the dubs to stay at the hotels.

  this must be a big deal to the wtbs as this is the second time, in the same insert they bring up the "approved hotels" issue.

  i don't remember reading about this years ago.
