  Jesus Camp

  by Wordly Andre in

  did anyone see the movie called jesus camp?

  it was on bio channel last night, very creepy these poor kids are so deep in this cult like christian religion.

  my wife and i were shocked at what they put these kids through, there is this one part where they are talking about how evil harry potter is and if he was alive back in jesus time he would have been put to death, then later these kids are talking about harry potter and one kid says that his mom won't let him watch it but when he stays with his dad he watches it, all the kids look at him with this "oh my god he is the devil" look, this movie is a documentary and reminds me of that movie saved.

  Do you think the Society has spies on sites like this?

  by easyreader1970 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  not that any of them would post, but do you think that they have people who they secretly have visit anti-jw sites and forums like this just for the purpose of seeing what people are saying about them and what their current members might stumble upon?.

  if you google jws, the first couple are official, the next two are wikis, then you have an anti-jw site and then there's this one.

  any current or potential member that is looking for more information than is published by the wbts will be directed to these sites.

  Horoscopes/star signs

  by HB in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  a friend who is an intelligent high-flying business woman is going through a relationship break-up and is also recovering from breast cancer.

  she is not religious but has been turning to 'new-age' beliefs to try to help her cope, (she has visited a numerologist and had her palm read).

  she has just sent me an email with a description of 12 different personalities based on star signs.

  ...i just finished reading it.

  wow!

  the only downside for me is that he talks a lot about how important it is to connect with the pre-cult personality.

  Why I post about atheism

  by nvrgnbk in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  oftentimes the accusation is made that there is some sort of conspiracy on jwd amongst the atheists to convert, humiliate, spit on, or otherwise degrade the believers.

  it's been suggested that their tone is condescending and arrogant.. it's hinted at that they're angry and bitter about their own lives and want to take it out on god and his humble servants.. others think it's all just an excuse to lead what they judge to be a morally depraved life.. regardless of what we believe about god's existence or lack thereof, most rational adults understand that when we attempt to judge the motives of others we can miss by a mile.. so here's the reason i post about the topic of atheism.... i was born as one of jehovah's witnesses, fourth generation.

  i was being indoctrinated with jehovah while i was still in the womb.

  KurtBethel visits Beth Sarim!

  by kurtbethel in

  sunday, may 18th was my big day.

  i decided to go to beth sarim, home of the princes and ancient worthies.

  so i loaded up the truck and rolled out, wondering what do you do when you meet someone so ancient that the roman empire was a mere twinkling in jehovah's eye.

  The End of Circuit Overseers

  by scotsman in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  is indeed apparently nigh as another poster predicted along with the end of the weekly bs.

  not sure when this should take place but i'm reliably informed by a family member that one of the uk's overseers was talking about it fairly recently.

  reduced to weekend visits by an outside but local elder instead.. i have no further info..
