I have showed my jw the letters and such, didn't make a hill of beans, just a bunch of apostate crap...... sigh. Actually wrote to museums etc... and did not come from apostate sites. Didn't matter one bit.

8Interesting bit of JW World War II Trivia.
by Athanasius induring world war ii when the nazis occupied a large section of the western part of the ussr, heinrich himmler considered various methods to help control the indigenous population.
alexander dallin reports in his book german rule in russia 1941-1945—a study of occupation policies, page 616:.
“himmler conceded that the easterners needed some general system of values, but it was madness to spread nazism among them, and to revive the orthodox or to promote the catholic church in the east was dangerous.

You will! and you will have words of wisdom for some young poor soul just like some of the more 'advanced' posters here!
Did you know there are people cheering you on without you even knowing? I know, it's weird being online and all, but still, in some of my dark days just knowing some here wished me the best, knowing really nothing about me gave me a bit of lift some days. Their kindness still overwhelms me sometimes.

this is a sobering reminder of what happened some 40 years ago when raymond franz and others were literally kicked out from the jehovah's witnesses for having pre-arranged private spiritual discussions.lesson: paragraph 7 is another example of the i and t in dr. steven hassan's bite model of the 21st century cult - information and thought control at its best!!!!
"my gosh, there must be a lot of independent meetings these days.

A very happy belated birthday!
You could think of it this way, if the average life span of a woman is say, 80 yrs old, you haven't even reached half way yet! You may have at times felt like that first half was wasted with being a jw and all. So now how are you going to spend the next 40? You have learned what you don't want in your life now you have a chance to go find what you do want.
Wishing you all the best

'even beginning and ending such meetings with prayer' - guess they don't go in for:
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18English Standard Version16 Rejoice always, 17 pray without ceasing, 18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God
in Christ Jesus for you.

What's up with the demonic avatar?
by Repent inwhy does the j-w forums have a demonic avatar as starting avatar?
why would a biblical religion even consider having demonic images included, in any of their content?.

How could anyone come to this forum and not realize it is made up of mostly ex jw's?
"You're starting to prove that Jehovah's witnesses are false profets" - (you mean prophet?) well, no kidding. I think almost everyone on this site believes that the wt/jw's are false prophets.
Have the jw's disturbed you somehow? perhaps you would have meaningful answers if your posts were a bit more coherent.
Then again Fedupjw is probably right.
