  Define "Ex jw"?

  by highdose in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  inspired from another current thread.

  i note some people are asking if they are allowed to participate in a questionaire for ex jw's if they are just fading or have not been df'd?.

  my own situation is this: tecnicaly i am a jw, baptised as a young tweeny and never reproved, df'd or da'd.

  Why is it so hard for Ex-JWs to make that "final step" and give up Christianity?

  by sabastious in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i'm not sure if it's just denial on a lot of people's part, but the reason the jws doctrine is so wacky and controlling is because they are among the few religions that really try to follow the bible!.

  the bible is the culprit here in actuality, but even after someone has "wizened up" to the misguided teachings of jehovah's witnesses they still hold the bible as inspired word of god.. why don't you believe that the governing body was chosen as the faithful and discreet slave in 1918?

  because the only real evidence to that fact is that they say so.

  the new world translation (nwt) is published by the watchtower bible and tract society.

  this is the organization that jehovahs witnesses belong to.

  Who was your childhood hero or she-roe?

  by zagor in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ok boys and girls something light tonight.

  ive been talking to someone the other day who is studying psychology and she tells me you can tell a lot about a person based on who their childhood hero was.

  im not sure if i subscribe to the idea at all, kind of reminds me of horoscope or tarot archetypes but on the other hand, ive been thinking tonight, she might be onto something there at least partly.
