  Who ya gonna call?? CULTBUSTERS!!!

  by Junction-Guy in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  well i got a phone call last night from a sweet little old lady who saw my flyer at her church.

  she tells me "im at my wits end, and i dont know what to do" i asked her what the problem was and she went on to explain how her neighbor is forever more having bookstudies and holding field service meetings next door.

  her neighbor is a jw and is most likely an elder.

  To God We Are Dedicated...

  i used to love hearing this song at the conventions, everyone singing..

  but dammit, now it's in my head, and i just realized that it sounds kinda like the imperial march from star wars.

  and it sounds great when you hum it and desk-drum a beat to it..

  GBL: Why did you do that to me? It hurts so bad to see those words and realize that I believed that Bull for all those years (walks off mumbling to self and shaking head ... teary eyed)

  Seriously though ... I really find that s#%t amazingly disturbing.

  You would think they would be happy because it is the only way the WTS is going to increase in numbers.

  blondie: hmmm ... this could be 'new light'. Imagine if every dub were required to have three children. What an increase!!!

  Lonelysheep said: ?Gee, thanks for trying to make me feel like shit at what is supposed to be one of his sacred blessings! And while I was home on maternity leave, nursing every 2 hours, I was reminded how important it was not to miss a freakin wt bible study in case the big A came through and destroyed my unbaptized azz!

  Yep ? put off living now in hopes that Armageddon will come and wisk all your troubles away ? still waiting aren?t we?

  Candidlynuts: my last pregnancy my super dub mother in law slapped me and pulled my hair and screeched like a banshee at my thoughtlessness in getting pregnant.

  at the hall i was asked " what do you want another kid for?"

  Cult mindset strikes at the very essence of happiness. If I had waited to have children only to have Armageddon NOT come I would be even more furious than I am now! Some women have a strong desire to raise a family. I am so happy to have my children ? I don?t know what I would do without them. They are truly God?s blessing.

  The love you didn't get as a JW...

  by JH in

  often, i hear people say that there is no love in the jw org.

  can you give personal examples of this?.

  ok, this is your chance to say what "love" you expected from the org.

  dh - helping people stay in touch is not the same as showing love: I have REAL friends who show me REAL love - friends I know I can call if my car breaks down who will drop what they're doing and come and get me, or drive around and help me look for a wayward teenager if need be, or bail me out of jail, or get my lights turned back on ... whatever - and I'd do the same for them. Real friends are there when you have real problems to deal with and they don't turn their back on you because you're weak.

  Get over it. The elders don't want to "shepherd" you.

  by ithinkisee in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  whenever elders hear the complaint from someone that "they never get shepherded or visited by the brothers" do you know what they do when you walk away?.

  they look at each other and roll their eyes.

  they make comments along the lines of "great.

  Hey ithinkisee - what about the cutie pie single sisters???? I got an awful lot of shepherding at first. After I married it slacked off considerably. Maybe that's the reason I kept telling on myself ... to get some spiritual attention .

  Anna Matheakis - Hero or Murderer?

  by ezekiel3 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  2/8/1972 page 15-16 tells this story as well.

  what is curious, if not criminal, about this article is the way matheakis survived a sinking ship 15 miles from the coast of italy.

  what is your vote?

  After all the lies I heard come from the tower, I would need verification of the story before I even made a judgement. Funny though how someone is more concerned with being clothed than being alive isn't it? Typical WT BS to me. If my jeans are weighing me down in the sea them boys are coming off pronto! Rather be half naked and alive on deck than fully clothed and dead at sea. SHEESH! Arrogant old bastards don't give a rip about anybody do they? Just as long as you 'look' right .

  they also claim that outside their organisation true joy can not be found.

  where is the evidence to support their statements?

  has your joy increased or decreased since you left the wtbts?

  I am a thousand times happier without that constant dribble going thru my mind (am I doing the right thing, am I doing enough, have to prepare for the ... I should witness to them, where are my tracts )

  F' that!

  And I am no longer worried about my salvation ... God will work that out with me.

  Isn't it crazy that they haven't updated the song book? How f'ing boring to be singing the same shite for years and years and years ....

  It still amazes me how lacking JW's are in social decorum. I had 4 children while in the b0rg and not once did anyone say congrats. to me or my husband. They really didn't say anything, just sort of nodded their heads. I heard one sis. say to another one time "better you than me" . That's the type of attitude that stems from the "woe to the pregnant woman and the one suckling a baby" during the great tribulation that was right around the d@#n corner all the time; and the 'do more, do more, do more' mentality.

  When I had my first daughter the 'friends' didn't even throw me a baby shower or give me hand-me-downs! They knew our family was struggling and yet sat idly by, some even laughing at our situation. Fortunately my 'worldly' family all went in and bought a bunch of clothes for her.

  Worldly people are much more loving, compassionate and sincere than those in so-called spiritual paradise.
