what is your story?
we would love to “hear” from you!

Welcome Suprised!
I have a question, you said, " Also all those years in UK when sick and elderly etc not allowed to write letters."- I am a ubm (unbelieving mate) so does that mean if you were sick they didn't allow or 'count' letter writing as an alternative to door to door (d2d for future reference on board) ? I thought they made allowances for certain people in dire conditions. Maybe it depended on who you knew? or individual congs?
i have learn a lot about the religion and congregations.
when i was active visiting meetings, i was there for the spiritual food.
i actually thought everyone else was there for same reason ;-) i have learn there's a great variation among jws.
I found out as a ubm (unbelieving mate) that this cult is way worse than I ever could have imagined.
I also found out that people are generous with their knowledge and really do want to help if they can.
none of my changes save, and no messages or warnings or errors to indicate why?
is that turned off?
why isn't there any feedback from the server?
You should have a better view of yourself! Didn't you know it's hip to be a square? err, kind of a square? I like the antennas, better than my horns though they might be fitting?
I have no idea how to fix your avatar. Someone should be along to help you shortly.
i was curious if anyone had/has any experience with the use of colloidal silver for antibiotic and/or wound healing?
a health food store clerk recommended this in answer to my question about such.. thank you in advance.. just as a ps, i have heard about the man who turned his skin complexion blue.
apparently he ingested large amounts and applied it all over himself for an extended period.
The blue guy made his wrong and drank it by boatloads that's why he turned color.
I use and make my own colloidal silver and use it when necessary. Great for tooth infections, throat, etc... works for me. I don't take it all the time, use more as one would an antibiotic. Great for cuts too, you can find band aids with colloidal silver in them and burn units use silver from what I am told.
If you want to make your own there are numerous videos on it and also Earth Clinic has a really good video. Many home remedies there. Naturally do your own research when treating yourself or loved ones. Look up many different sources and don't rely on just one source.
witnesses never watch r movies.
but they understand references to wood chippers and banjo music.. other than that the rating system is not worldwide .
When mine joined up he quit watching anything R rated. 'Shindler's List' would be on the banned movies for instance. Even PG were suspect, even Disney movies are often PG. sigh.
2017 tony morris jw gb.
"the end is imminent!".
timestamp (06:00).
How do jw's define the definition of imminent to their children? Not being sarcastic, just wondering.
do you think the watchtower will ban commenting at the meetings one day?
if you are pimo, you might want to try to make some comments to make others think about the “truth”!

Isn't that part of brainwashing 101? read the paragraph, ask question about paragraph, have subject parrot it back. The repetition along with the fear of not going outside the lines is sure to keep group think in check.

your opinion, please, on the above video.
1. before jesus, humans were judged either by the law (jews and converts) or by natural law (noahide law).
I appreciate seeing how all of you view this whole issue. I think my jw maintains that we (his wife, kids, unbelievers) will get a chance and be resurrected and once we are all there together we (the unbelievers) will say, "oh, now I get it! of course jw's had it right all along!" and we will all get to stay together in the fictional paradise earth together. I have no clue how this actually squares with jw doctrine. Probably because it doesn't. He just can't fathom it any other way I think, who could? How could it be a paradise if everyone you ever loved would not be there because they didn't jump on the jw ship?
I wonder how his beliefs will change when he sees the annual meeting?

Vanderhoven, I remember a news story a number of years back that two young jw brothers (under age 13 if memory serves) did in fact kill themselves so they would be assured to be resurrected, they were afraid the big A would come before they died and had no assurances they would be found good enough to make it into paradise earth.

I am not familiar with the guy in the video but thought he did a good job explaining.
I never understood when a jw would say the their death wiped out their sins, then you have no need for Jesus and His work upon the Cross? my jw and elders could not answer that for me and just changed the subject or claimed they were not sinners or 'intentional' sinners. Somehow they understood that everybody falls short but they didn't equate that with 'sin' in their minds. jw's may fall short but heck, not falling down in the gutter like the guy over there! Thank you Lord I am not like those sinners over there! -jw mantra, in my opinion.
