  I just had fun giving a talk!

  so, unfortunately, i'm still on the tms and had a talk tonight (in front of a co, no less) and the talk was on the subject of adultery.

  in the source material there's reference to "spiritual adultery" i.e.

  idolotry or when israel had alliances with pagan nations.

  I'm under no illusion that I might have affected anyone present, but it was really fun to stand up there condemning 60 people while they all sat there nodding their heads in agreement.

  Most of them don't know about the Watchtower riding the back of the wild beast for 9 years, and if they did they would say that the faithful slave knows what it is doing.

  Clueless and asleep.

  Working on a Sunday morning!

  it's coming up to 4 months since our last meeting.

  apart from three visits to the house in the first 4 weeks we've not heard a peep from anyone, except for two 'encouraging' cards from two older ladies in the local hall.. a couple self-righteous, not even exemplary witnesses, have taken it upon themselves to pre-emptively shun me on a couple occasions, which i found rather funny.. anyway my grandad needed some minor building work doing to the front of the house, which my brother and i happily agreed to do for him.

  his house is on a main road running up the hill to the kingdom hall.

  Interesting conversation today with a very sick JW

  by joe134cd in

  i was talking to a jw friend of mine who is going for tests to see if she needs evasive surgery.

  she was describing to me the look on the surgeons face when she told him she won't except blood.

  i just felt sorry for her.

  I started off with the vaccination policy quotes after a JW friend of mine insisited I get a flu shot. They weren't happy to see that. Moved onto organ transplant quotes and they were appalled. Somehow, they couldn't see the correlation between those misstatements and the potential for a doctrinal change in the blood policy.

  I was told, "Unlike those policies, the blood doctrine is scriptural."

  So were vaccinations and organ transplants.

  I have come to the conclusion that many Jehovah's Witnesses have a death wish.

  Think about all the good people you have met and the good relationships you have made since leaving satan's cult.

  The cult members who have shunned and talked bad about you and your loved ones don't deserve you.

  Awarded a Badge of Honour - I'm an 'Apostate'

  (i never was a jw).. just had a d2d (fs) visit.

  older guy (said he's been in since 1958 and is an elder) with a younger guy (20 or so).

  looking out at the street i obviously drew the short straw because further down the street was a pair of not unattractive younger women jws.

  Congratulates Joe, you caused his cognitive dissonance to jump into hyperdrive.

  The last time I spoke with a Jehovah's Witness elder at my door (I live in a different 'territory' than when I was a jaydubya), I invited him back for another 'meaningful' discussion of the bible and Jehovah's Witnesses.

  That was 7 years ago and I haven't seen or heard from him since.

  I think it may have been because I opened my bible to Acts 15 and showed him why Paul and Barnabas went to Jerusalem.

  His lower lip dropped 3 inches when he read that some so called Christians from Jerusalem went to Antioch and stirred up trouble with the Christians in Antioch by telling them they couldn't be saved unless they had their penises cut.

  Then, he went apeshit crazy when I asked him about the Watchtower Society's 9 year affiliation with the United nations when they teach that it is the image of the wild beast referred to in Revelation chapters 9 & 13.

  At This Point In Time Would You Ever Subject Yourself To A Judicial Committee?

  i certainly wouldn't.

  and if the elders wanted to have a meeting with me, i would respectfully decline.

  if the elders wanted to deal with you, would you talk with them?.

  Knowing what I know now...

  YES!

  I like to watch Jehovah's Witnesses squirm when their demon inspired doctrines are examined.

  IS THIS SICK? LYING TO DISABLED CHILDREN!!

  by Bloody Hotdogs! in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  has anyone watched the videos for children on jw.org?

  i feel sick.. in one video a little girl dreams about paradise: the blind can see again, the deaf can hear again, and of course, she gets to hug a cute little panda cub.

  not until the end of the video is her wheelchair revealed.

  What is the title of that masterfully designed video?

  I want to show it to some people who have been recently contacted and coerced into a study with the only true Christians in the world.

  do other religions change doctrines like the wt society does?

  by sowhatnow in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i just wondered.

  i mean ok, the catholic church seems to make 'adjustments' more or less , by accepting previously held prejudices.

  against certain things, like gays, or birth control, or rather tolerate it more, but is that a genuine change of doctrine?.

  Mainline Protestants have believed the same doctrines since the Protestant Reformation in the early 16th century.

  On the other hand, cults like the Jehovah's Witnesses are constantly changing their doctrines because they have a history of constantly going beyond Scripture.

  If she had photocopied and shown some of the hatred towards other denominations that the 'faithless and diseased slackers' have printed over the years in the Watchtower magazine do you think she would have been criticized?
