  or do you think that all religions are?

  since they are all hypocrites or have teachings that don't match the bible or any other religious book?

  ..would you thank the bullies now?.

  i must admit that the social pressure was a large factor in my exiting.

  though it was hell at the time i'd rather that than life as as dub now.

  Urbanized - welcome

  Talesin - love your responses.

  I was bullied throughout my first year at Grammar school - no one ever spoke a word to me otherwise. In my second year I was labelled a Midwich Cuckoo - and then even the bullies kept away from me, lol.

  Are there benefits to DAing Yourself?

  i've been away from this board for a really long time, since then i've made huge progress in my recovery from life in the jw world thanks to some professional help.

  now i am at the point where i just don't want to be anywhere near anyone remotely associated with the organization.

  my parents no longer speak to my husband and i, but when i do have to interact with my jw inlaws i feel incredibly sick.

  Is Field Service Going To Be The Key To The End Of The WatchTower Society?

  by Honesty in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for the past 6 months i have been speaking to church and youth groups in the surrounding area.

  the topic has been how to show love to the jw's when they come to your door.

  in the past, many of the people i talk with have been rude to the jw's.

  Theoretically, as JW are discouraged to look on the internet ( and thus be aware of their own history amongst other things) then the ''householder' has the clear advantage. ANYONE wanting to know / investigate / question more has a whole World of knowledge - yet the JW has only 1995 or the New Light (whichever is more recent)

  After the U.N, would the Watchtower think of using the Vatican Library?

  by nicolaou in

  2. current

  todays edition of the times (13/07/05) carries the following on page 42;.

  the vatican, which is thought to own more than 1,000 flats in rome, is home to one of the worlds largest libraries, with 75,000 manuscripts and 1.1 million books.

  the library, established by pope nicholas v in 1448, contains the codex vaticanus, the oldest known manuscript of the bible.. .

  No Shunning For Me????

  by mapleaf18 in

  2. beliefs

  i stopped into a local grocery store with my boyfriend and as we were squeezing the brocolli, i hear a big "hi" behind me.

  for the life of me i couldn't remember her name.

  it was a "sister" from my used-to-be congo.

  ....and we've been conditioned into EXPECTING to be shunned - lol. If you feel robbed of a shunning mapleleaf, I'm sure we can oblige.....

  AS a JW I refused to shun - in fact I made a point of doing the opposite (wouldn't a d'fed person - a repentent one -feel bad enough anyway? Fair to rub their nose in it for 6 months / length of time elders decide? - Where does the time limit come from? Bible - based?) Sheeesh.

  Am unsure of the question. Does any other religion promote the idea of ''Babylon the Great''? By the WTBTS OWN teachings, yes they are.
