I ' ll never understand why anyone could become a member of such a cult.... what happened to their brain ? thinking abilities ? common sense ?

relationship with jw

by curious_catholic in

hi, i?m a catholic and i?ve been dating a girl that is jw for two years.

why do the jw have to marry a person from there own religion.

i think that it is very wrong.

Celia

Joker10 = so it's not ok for a Catholic to criticize the JW cult, but it's perfectly alright for JWs to put down the Catholic church every chance they get ?

Other Religions

something i thought of as i was reading through the posts:

i have read through various posts where it has been said that some feel that jws are not the organisation or people of god.

therefore, has anyone after leaving the jws joined another religion?

Celia

RELIGION is a drug induced coma that is a real high....until you start coming down. Because down is much much lower than we can imagine. The higher you go up....the farther you fall to the ground.

Karl Marx said : Religion is the Opium of the masses....

these masses must be kept in ckeck. What better way than a powerful organization (Catholic Church, Watch Tower Society....etc) that controls the masses by telling them what to think, what to do, what not to think, what not to do... and if you don't obey, you go to hell, or you die...

Funny, isn't it, that the JWs adopted the Catholic/Protestan Bible (with minor changes to fit their own peculiar doctrines), a collection of books chosen by the early Catholic Church leaders, who changed many passages to make it fit their own peculiar beliefs.... why were some books chosen to be part of the Bible and others rejected?

I just read Holy Blood, Holy Grail - great research, and it makes a lot of sense. Anyone else read it?

I went to the assembly today, fun!

by jwbot in

ok, mike and i went to the circuit assembly today at the mca at the university of maine (where i go to school).

we made it through the first half and it went faster than i thought.. .

this is me and my friend jenn (another ex-jw) the night before the assembly at 10:30pm getting drunk before heading out to the bar where we got really drunk and danced and had a great time.

Bible quote joke

by Simon in

a new pastor was visiting in the homes of his parishioners.

at one house it seemed obvious that someone was at home, but no answer came to his repeated knocks at the door.

therefore, he took out a card and wrote "revelation 3:20" on the back of it and stuck it in the door.. when the offering was processed the following sunday, he found that his card had been returned.

Celia

Wow ! Heidi, Thanks ! and welcome to the board.

This is pretty sad............... JWs were upset by the jokes, so he had to close that section of his site!

The Only Collection of Jehovah's Witnesses Jokes on the NetI have regretfully decided to take down the JW humor, primarily because of the extraordinary amount and viciousness of the hate mail I have been receiving from current JWs and others. These jokes were collected for the purpose of creating a distanced space of amusement for former JWs. They are very mild jokes, enough for a wry smile or two, but it seems as though the page was not serving its intended purpose. Please visit my advice to former JWs page to get a sense of what I was attempting to do here.

If you would still like to have the collection, please contact me. I would be happy to email it to you in pdf format if your email is at least civil in tone.
