  osmosis and i are collaborating to put together some spoof awakes.

  i've written some articles spoofing the teachings & writing style.

  i think our goal is to be as humorous as possible while drawing attention to problematic stuff about wt publications.

  Deluded, Misguided and Uninformed

  by Lady Lee in

  as a jw i was taught that no matter what we were doing "in the world" our actions should always be above reproach.

  we were always to be giving a "fine witness" many jws, myself included, believed that when people saw our fine behavior and recognized our clean morals they would attribute it to our religion.

  and some would be so impressed they would want to learn more.. now that i am out i have had a fascinating time finding out what people really think about jws.

  Well I feel for you. But I guess you can only take it for so long--the putting up a front that is. I've never been very good at pretending. Hope all works out ok for you.

  Looking for input on the "Rapture" doctrine...

  by Jamelle in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  saw a documentary on tv this weekend about it.

  have heard about the "left behind" series of books that deal with this belief.. one thing that caught my attention about the belief in the rapture was that it seemed very dark.

  it seems to focus more on the scary things that are talked about in revelation than the message of peace and love that i admire in the teachings of christ.. the other thing that bothered me is that it seemed similar to the witnesses in that you have to be "saved" or you are going to die.

  My husband strongly believes in it. I don't see support from the scriptures regarding this. How can they use one scripture to base it on?

  something i came across via email.

  there has been a lot of change recently; we had the announcement a few months> '> back that there would be a large reduction of personnel in the us bethel because of [the] new efficient equipment and also lots of the work has shifted to other branches.

  jehovah's chariot keeps moving forward.

  Welcome to the Board.

  The fact that the WBTS is downsizing in people makes me wonder if it's not really due to the more efficient equipment. Food for thought eh?

  Anger!!!!

  yesterday, when i was driving through holland, michigan, i was a little lost looking for the human resources office.

  i was heading down a busy divided four lane street unfamiliar, when i looked up and there it was, a kingdom hall in all it's radiant three day quick-build glory.

  and for the first time, rather than just the usual cringe, i felt angry!.

  I didn't feel anger toward them until I came to this website one year ago this month, and learned about Silent Lambs and all the people that have been hurt and swept under the carpet.

  Now I feel an intense urge to throw eggs or cuss out the window when I drive by Kingdumb Hells.

  UPDATE: Semi-Back-in-Business

  over the past couple of weeks, i've learned a lot about myself and those around me.

  life might suck, but life moves on.. mom's grip is weakening, prob.

  because she's getting tired, or because she's beginning to realize how things are.. not everything i have done is admirable, but its done.
