  Who ARE These People?

  by Farkel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it bears reminding people that there are a number of very high ranking men in brooklyn who are quite aware that the practice of disfellowshiping for just-about-anything is totally unscriptural.

  they are aware of stories like the young girl who committed suicide did so because her sister caught her smoking a cigarette and threatened to turn her in.

  they are aware that their blood transfusion policy is not supported by scripture and that approximately 10,000 jws were not given a chance to save their lives as a result.

  Advice Needed on Memorial Invite!!

  by dins in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  today, while on the phone with my jw mother, she drops the, by the way do you want to come to the memorial thing for the first time in i don't know how many years.

  i was kind of taken aback and said that i would think about it.

  obviously, i have no intention of going, but should i just say nothing, say no, or just say i don't agree with the jw doctrine at all and to attend would be hypocritical of me?

  If you can stomach it, go with your Mom, and come back and post on this board what you saw there.
  Then invite her for a nice Easter dinner, with leg of lamb and all the trimmings...
  About the WT bible, it's full of distortions, it should be destroyed.
  Unless your son knows all the lies and wants to use it to compare it with other bible versions.

  A suggestion for discrediting the Society

  by RunningMan in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in this forum, we often wonder what we can do to make the society look bad.

  we come up with ideas like picketing assemblies, mail campaigns, legal action, and many others.

  although these ideas are laudable and i would not want to discourage anyone, they sometimes create sympathy for the witnesses, and make us look bitter and fanatical.

  I love that statement... seen it a few times on this board :

  I will try and avoid those that seem to have an "agenda"
  of hatred towards those who still serve Jehovah.

  ...those who still serve Jehovah...

  By that you mean.......those who still obey the Watch Tower Society blindly...

  Jehovah witnesses DESTROY happy families!

  by D wiltshire in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  jehovah witnesses destroy many otherwise happy families by their cruel and inhumane shunning.. the bryant families(ca.& or) are a very real example of how shunning as enforced by elders and the watchtower really messes up what could otherwise be happy families.. will those fat heads on the governing body ever stop and think about how their sad and tragic misuse of shunning has led to untold suffering for so so many people,.. people who they owe,... no, people who they should feel love and compassion for because they have trusted them with their lives.. there is all kinds of wickedness in this world and i think the governing body is right up there close the the most wicked by their use of manipulation though lies and guilt.

  one day i'm sure they will be held accountable.. oh god please bring their own wickedness crashing back on their own heads, because they keep tearing your people to pieces with their lies and the shunning of innocent people, please bring their own form of wickedness crashing back on their own heads.. .

  join the watchtower or you will die.. only jehovah's witnesses have the truth all other religions evil and from the devil.. you must beleive the watchtower or you're going to die a painful death forever, isn't that really good news?.

  Yadirf,
  You give the example of in incorrigible thief, one who will do that during all his life...
  I would avoid such a person myself, for sure, if he was just an acquaintance, not so sure i would do the same if he was my son !
  But that's not the point I want to make.
  JWs. are DF and shunned for questioning the rules of the Watch Tower Society, their interpretations of the Bible, for smoking...
  and many other insignificant reasons.
  I would never shun (avoid) my son because he is smoking, or because he speaks up his mind...
  The Society destroys happy families...

  entering phase 2...

  by jeffory in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the last 3 year's have been like a rollercoaster ,,,the bubble that is life as a true believer has been burst, after nearly 20 years as an elder i declined to accept the position after my wife and i moved from the cong.

  we had been with in seattle to another hall.. the consequences of rejecting a position further strengthened my view that life in the backassward world of jwdom is not an option anymore.

  dec.4th 2001 was our last meeting, i had just had enough, haven't been back and won't go back.. these board's have been a real therapuetic event.the good,the bad and the ugly all post here.
