Paul advises us: “Do not be misled.”
Gumby,
Isn't that odd that they tell their followers not to be mis-lead and they are the ones doing the mis-leading. It's no wonder they are falling apart because when you talk to people about the witnesses they all say the same thing. They ask why are they such a hateful religion ?
The answer ? they do not hang out with those of the world because they don't want the world to know just how evil they really are unless the person is easily controlled in the brain. Thats who they go after is those who are not able to think for themselves, those who need to follow because they cannot lead their own lives. I think at some time in our lives we all can fall into that point where we give up or give in. Excluding those who were born into it.

Isn't it funny that when you say something condescending about the JW religion we are accused of judging them but yet they seem it to be fit to condemn others. Does not the scriptures say Do not judge for you will be judged in that same judgement ? How hypocritical is that ?

Anyone ever seen a ghost?
by Clam inhave you ever seen a "ghost"?
if you did, were you scared, fascinated or straight to denial?.
if you did see one, were you a jw at the time and therefore did you believe it to be an apparition projected by the demons?

Okay, I am going to tell you about an experience that I had many years ago. I was in the state of Wisconsin painting a house that was previously owned by the man who invented the wrapper on single sliced cheese. When he made his millions he moved from a 5,000 square foot home to a 10,000 square foot home. He had the old home for sale, but it would not sell. The market was good at the time so there was really no reason for the house to not sell.
So he used it for a tax break and donated it to the local hospital. The Hospital hired many contractors to give the house a face lift. I was the painting contractor on the job. The house was a three story home with two bedrooms and a bathroom on the top floor. Also on the top floor was a set of french doors that went into and office type room with a built in desk on the left wall. If you were to continue through this room you came to a very short hallway, you had to bend over to walk through it. There were several short doors that led into storage rooms.
The contract was to paint the ceilings and walls and touch up any trim. In this office room on the other side of the french doors was a small section of wall that needed paint. I could kneel on top of this desk and reach across the french doors to paint. While I was doing so I seen a girl walk pass me under my arm. I turned my head to follow this girl. As I did she disappeared, right in front of me. Scared the crap out of me. I didn't say anything to anyone about what I had seen cause I figured they would laugh or call me nuts. That night I spoke about it to my business partner. The next day he went to all the other trades on the job and told them about what I had seen. Guys were hiding in closets and scaring others and making jokes about it.
Well when it came time to touch up the trim I found a built in ironing board closet in the wall. I opened it and on the inside was a child's measuring chart. It had several kids names and years on the door. There was a girl on this door but she had stopped while the others continued up the chart. I showed everyone this chart and people began to believe me.
The carpet layers came to pull up the old carpet and in one of the rooms under the carpet pad was a 5x7 manila envelope. Inside was a black and white photo of a family and in the photo was the girl I seen walking pass me.
After that it was hard to get the other trades in the house to finish their work. It scared grown men and how it all played out so perfectly as if I was being led to this spirit. I had to go back to that house to do the final touch ups and I was alone and I was scared and when I got to the house I went upstairs sat down next to a wall and I just talked to her, told her that she was scaring me and that she did not need to do that, that I was her friend, finished my job and left. Come to find out through some research I learned that the girl drowned in the pool in the backyard and after it had happened the family had the pool covered with dirt.......
That is a true story.... I have had other experiences too.

I stress a lot, do you?
by free2beme ini am a heavy heavy stresser and think about the most small of concerns.
i sometimes sit at night not sleeping, because the price of gas is going up or worrying if my work will be there next year.
always worried about if the bills will be paid and if the gas is on to long, and if we need to think about our diet more.

JWD......the First Ingredient in the Witnesses' Spiritual Food '
by gumby inas i was sitting here this morning reading the various threads and posts, i couldn't help but think how the society monitors this board.
i also thought how this board has aided many "out" in clever types of ways that have saved many a lot of heartache by the good advise they recieve here by others who have learned the hard way.. the actions of ones who have exited of course trickles down to elders who have to deal with these tricky ass apostates who are influencing others.
the co's all hear about this and of course these reports go to the society.
