i am spending the week at my sons house in seattle to help him while recovering from knee surgery.
i answered the doorbell and it was a young woman by herself.
she read a scripture from james (can't remember) and offered me the a&w.
Ask them: Why would Jesus, in 1918, choose such a "pagan" organization - the Watchtower Bible & Tract Society ("pagan" according to WTS standards TODAY) as the ONLY TRUE & PURE religion?? Back then, JWs worshipped Jesus, believed He died on the cross, celebrated birthdays & Christmas, took blood transfusions, etc. etc. etc.
Any JW who wanted to believe in these things (that were once allowed) TODAY.....would surely be DISFELLOWSHIPPED!!
.....is it announced to everyone at the main meeting, or do they just not say anything?
does the elder tell everyone why the jw is df?.
thanks....i was just curious.. lavendar .
Okay, thank you too sweetface! I always wondere how they did it.

Hi Southern Belle!
Congratulations for recognizing the WTS for what it really is. You are very brave to have taken this step. Who knows.....perhaps someday you'll be the instrument in helping your family members escape as well.
All the best to you,

my wife and i have been married for just over one year.
while we were just dating, she had told me that she used to belong to the jehovah's witnesses, but no longer had those beliefs.
i thought i could handle all of this (i am a non- believer), but she has since got back to the org (all her family belong as well).
Hi Shadow1,
I'm sure after a while, they will put pressure on her to get you to join. Hold you ground.....don't do it. That would be the worst decision you could make....to join this cult.
You need to educate yourself. Wilbur Lingle has written many GREAT books on the Jehovah's Witness organization. He provides MANY thought-provoking questions that can be posed to Witnesses. Questions that help them see that most of the WTS's teachings don't make sense. The questions help the Witnesses to THINK FOR THEMSELVES instead of just swallowing whatever the WTS feeds them.
All the best to you!

......did anyone ever ask you a question that you couldn't answer??
if so, what was the question?
what did you say to the householder if you couldn't answer it??.

i was just watching this video after reading another thread.
http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=n9xjw_sk7ta .
the i saw the this verse plastered over the wall in the kingdom hall.
Yeah, they'd have to admit that Jesus is Jehovah.......something that they will NEVER do.
failure lady.
i could not believe she screamed that line out the other night, but if i was in a debate with her i would throw it in her chipmunk face.
i'lllet you fight for change for for me for five years...fine.
I don't like to disparage people, but in this case I'll make an exception: .......Hillary Clinton is a power-hungry, souless snake. HELP US ALL if she's elected!
to the people in this forum:.
"but if you have bitter jealousy and contentiousness in your hearts, do not be bragging and lying against the truth.this is not the wisdom that comes down from above, but is [the] earthly, animal, demonic.for where jealousy and contentiousness are, there disorder and every vile thing are.
