every magazine, newspaper or other periodical i have ever read would from time to time print a retraction to correct mistakes in past articles.
any reputable publishing house does this.. has anyone ever seen a retraction printed in the watchtower, awake, or any other wts publication?.
Interesting Craig.
Humility is not part of the GB's vocabulary.
It takes humility to say we were wrong!
They spew it out like the next injection but don't practice what they preach themselves.
Now brothers and sisters be humble and enjoy cleaning the crapper for this is where you learn true humility, any complaints lodged will go against your permanent record.

hi guys,.
i have a new testimony from an ex-jw on my site.
it's a good one from canada!.
Interesting, sorrowful story!
I am glad this man found help and survived.
I think all that matters is he is content within himself.
At least he believes in something.
Cathy
okay, it's not like everyone knows that the jw dating website has like a 10 page thread here, but this response that i just got is absolutley horrible.
i just can't believe that this "witness" wrote this to me!
i will quote her response to me........ i see you changed your profile from a few days.
I can see from this thread you are on a mission.
Congratulations! This was to funny.
Why don't you tell her you are Bill Clinton? See if she wants to be Monica?

i had a really unique experience today that i want to share but will have to give you a little of my background first.
i hope you find it interesting.. .
teenage years.
This story and the others were amazing! After all those years you connected.
I have not seen anyone from my past at all. I didn't keep any friends from the borg.
I just went away silently.
What a great thing friendship is.
Cathy
happy august to you!.
i apologize if this has been brought up before, but what is everyone's take:.
will the wtbts yet again set forth a date for the end?.
Now I am wondering if any of you heard about why the end didn't come in 1975?
We were all told that the time we are living in is borrowed time. That Adam was busy naming the animals before he realized that he had no mate. So the time from 1975 on ward was the time it took for Adam to name the animals until Eve was brought forth. Now that is the reason they explained away the 1975 failed prophecy. They forgot to figure in the naming of the animals.
And I forgot to put on my deordorant this morning. I made no phrophesy about it.
Cathy
As to your question Bornagain, they will find some reason why things didn't work and as mentioned in the thread it will be considered "new light". Of course the generation that saw the 1975 prophesy come and go will probably be the next generation to live forever. So hold onto your hats the ride is coming.
ok, i have been 'out' for about 9 years, now.
in all that time i have lived in 4 different states.
i have only had two visits from jw's during that time and both times they were from spanish congregations...the first time because my boyfriend at the time was mexican-american and someone told them we spoke spanish...the second time because my next door neighbors spoke spanish and they came to my place accidentally.. at any rate, both times as soon as they found out we spoke english, they scurried away and apologized for bothering us.
Yes I just got a visit from two of the local elders. My they have grown old. Before that it had been a year when two tried to walk up my driveway and I yelled down, don't bother I am not interested.
Before that it had been since 1995. Some come on the road but unless and elder is with them they don't stop at my house.
Cathy
this is a local news item.
i doubt the link will last more than a day.
it appears the man had no connection to the jw's previously, he just considered them an "easy mark".
Goes to show there is no protection from God anywhere. Nothing is sacred!
Thanks for the article. Laughed hysterically and I actually felt bad for the robber.
Cathy
the suits claim some congregation ... .
