Were You A Gullible JW?

by minimus in

i think every congregation has their group that sees everything as a sign that they are god’s chosen people.

if a witness didn’t go to a meeting and a storm came and destroyed their house and killed them, and only the kingdom hall was saved, that was a sign that we should be in jehovah’s house.

if russia persecuted jws , it’s proof we are living in the last days.

After Six Months of Hiatus, I can tell you the Watchtower is Starting to Crumble Faster than you think!

by SanLuisObispoTruthSeeker in

i took a hiatus from jwn because the wall started to collapse because i lost several people ive known almost my entire life.

these were people i thought would never die, the lies told by the watchtower is unforgivable!

there was a party i attended keeping a low profile while documenting what was said.

I think I heard it was fast crumbling 10 years ago,,wouldn't get my hopes up just yet

Jesus to run for record 26th term in office !

by Simon in

sources within heaven have revealed to us that jesus h christ intends to run for what would become his 26th term in office as ruler of the galaxy.. since his first term began in 1914 he's been unopposed in office despite, many say, failing to deliver on any of his pre-election promises.

they point to promises of "an end to death and eternal life for all" as being unrealistic given the funding given to healthcare as just one of many examples.. critics say the elections themselves are rigged and in fact no one even gets to case a vote because his father simply declares him the winner.

they believe that have proof that this was planned for some time in what many are calling "biblegate" and point to basic un standardsfor democracy which haven't been lived up to.. many of his supporters thought that his 16th term beginning in 1975 would define his rulership but they lost faith when his party later blamed them for having "unrealistic expectations".. "i did originally support him", says one man who didn't want to be identified for fear of reprisals, "but i'm starting to grow old and now think i'll die without ever seeing any of the changes his promised to enact".. we tried to contact the heaven party to ask when he planned to do any of the things he promised.

Are you an "out of the closet" atheist?

by rebel8 in

jw

i'm atheist and not ashamed of it.

however, it is so politically incorrect, especially where i live.

i have a legitimate concern that being out of the closet too much will hurt my career or neighborly relations--i know for a fact it probably would.. i'm really cautious about who i tell.. how about you?

I believe I am an atheist. as a young woman, the light bulbs clicked for me that there wad no God. however, I ignored it and spent many years trying to believe in. a God, Jehovah being it. I don't ever advertise it, I'm in a very religious community..so much so that the first question asked when meeting someone for the first time is...what church do.you go to? my journey to my atheist view and coming to terms with it was long and difficult. it's very personal to me. I really don't want to talk to other atheist about it. I don't want to argue, debate, or defend myself. I'm weary from it. like you, I think I would have a hard time with my coworkers if I admitted it. I'm not trying to recruit, convert anyone. I am at peace with it. hey rebel8, sorry for bad typing, on my cell!

Question for those converted to JW as adults

by DaleRivers in

jw
friends

why did you become a jw, what particular teachings attracted you to 'the truth' ?.

.

in my case (baptized at 20/21) it was the only religion i knew; my mom, her mom, and favorite sister were jw; and the teachings of no hellfire or immortal soul made sense to me.. .

purplesofa

I converted from Catholicism in my late 20s. I appreciated the JW teaching of when you die, your dead. Heaven was never appealing to me, even as a kid. I never wanted to die either so that was awesome. I like the message of a global paradise and peace on the planet. I wanted all that, but after knowing the crazies in the org, I opted out. Some days I still feel a sadness, but I get over it.
