  What funny "Saying" do you sometimes use?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  here in quebec, one funny expression people say is "donne a manger a un cochon, et il viendra chier sur ton perron" .

  word for word in english this would mean: feed a pig, and he will shit on your porch.

  in other words, sometimes you try to be nice to people, and they don't always try to be nice to you in return.. .

  allow ones to continue to seek information from a welcoming board!!!!

  We're glad you're here peggy ((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((( WELCOME ))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

  I wish I had found this site a long time ago. Just understand that not everyone who comes here is as open minded as you are. Sometimes they will not accept the truths that they find here on this site but come here anyway to invoke arguments or to mislead those like yourself into believing the spin that the GB puts on UN membership, FDS, failed prophs., flip flops etc.

  I hope you stay around a while

  Worse than death?

  by 5thGeneration in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one society thing that drives me crazy is trying to scare us by quoting the scripture about one who knows the truth and leaves is worse off than others who have never known the truth.. question: if every non-jw is going to die at armageddon, how can someone who leaves be worse off?

  are they going to die more than the others?.

  nice lips brooke

  Welcome to the board 5thgen!!!!

  The funny part about your question is, whether you're in or out, the GB always keeps you on the edge of salvation in order to keep the book sales up! Even though I was a devout () witless () I constantly quetioned my status with god; "if the big A came tomorrow, would I be ready"? "Have I talked to EVERYONE I know about da troof? "Have I unknowingly greived the holy spirt?" etc. etc. ad finium.

  It really sucked to be a witness

  Went To The District Assembly...

  made light of the whole ordeal.. turned it into a 4-day mini-vacation; 4 days away from kitchen and house chores!

  we all got to stay in a very plush hotel in the theme parks area of orlando, fl.

  walked around the some main attractions during the evenings.. took a lot of notes, but just in order to stay awake, not that anything said is new stuff really.

  New Bethel/Missionary Requirements.

  .

  when they announced the meetings for aspiring bethelites and missionaries, they've lowered the ages of admittance.. also, to become a bethelite the person doesn't need to be a pioneer any longer.

  any publisher in good standing, male or female, was encourage to attend such recruiting meeting.. i guess the need is greater now.. dy

  so maybe it's a slight change. There comes a point, though, in our apostate ramblings when you 'gotta ask, "What the hell is the big deal?"

  It's not that small changes are a big deal, but it could be indicative of something going on within the borg. That's why I'm interested in these topics. Even though the change was made some time ago it was AFTER I left - so this is NEWS to me. I'm glad somebody can stomach the meetings () and bring the 411 back to the forum.

  Jehovah's Witnesses: How Their Subculture is Fading Away.

  by metatron in

  2. friends

  i am old enough to remember the days when conventions lasted many long days and large.

  numbers of brothers were employed in preparing hot meals served on trays, army-style.

  also recall how good these steam cooked meals tasted - and how policemen, assigned to.

  One of the many reasons I left is because it's just a joyless religion that tries to impose a joyless existence on its adherents. It is no wonder that so many are leading double lives. All of the 'simplification' just goes to show that the GB are not conscious of basic human social needs. For me it takes a whole lot more than selling the botchtower and asleep to give my life a sense of purpose and fulfillment.

  long years of brainwashing finally come to an end.....

  by girl_interrupted in

  2. experiences

  hi everyone, i'm new here......basically, i found this website a couple of weeks ago when i was in dire need of some like-minded souls who had felt screwed up about the jw's.

  from about the age of four/five, my parents and i were involved in the organisation, and all three of us are stil messed up because of it.....we are no longer involved in it, but it took quite a few years before my parents found the strength to leave.

  to begin with, i was quite a zealous jw, was baptised at twelve and disfellowshipped at fourteen, because as i got older i began to grow ''weak in the truth'' as people so kindly described me!

  Welcome to the forum girl! I know the jw apologists can't affect you. I really feel for them. Perhaps some day they'll have the courage the rest of us have had to truly open their eyes and see the organization for what it really is: At best, it's just another religion, at the very worst, it's a cult that destroys and wastes peoples lives. They can make up all the excuses in the world but it still doesn't change the fact that it is a waste of time to spend ones life as a volunteer bookseller hoping to win the prize of life eternal. jmusic calls that "purpose". I call it an extraordinary waste of ones talent.

  The boys in Brooklyn once deceived us too.

  I'm glad you're out!

  Stick around.

  You're among true friends here.
