  JWs and the wolves in sheep's clothing

  by greendawn in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  we correctly believe that the wts is the proverbial wolf in sheep's clothing they talk in a way that makes them appear to be genuinely interested in helping people spiritually (the sheep's clothing) but we then find that they are power intoxicated individuals whose real concern is to abuse and exploit the flock (the real wolf like rapacity)they throw out of the org members for trying to offer constructive criticism they put lots of onerous burdens on their members and do nothing practical to help them, they systematically lie and deceive.

  .

  how would you elaborate on this subject to prove to a person interested in the jws that they are indeed devilish imposters.

  today i visited a (ex)jw christian forum, the first one i registered to when i needed to talk about my doubts and thoughts.

  i read my posts from 1 year ago, when i was really deep into research about the bible and the canon in particular.

  now it will soon be one year ago that i finally accepted that there is no jehovah.

  Where's the payoff?

  by AllAlongTheWatchtower in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  excuse me if i'm being cynical, but i've had my own experiences with [b]organized religion, though it was non-jw.

  the group i was affiliated with demanded that full fledged members tithe (10% off the top of your income; pre-taxes), and a donation basket was also circulated at nearly every gathering in addition to tithing.

  even kids were encouraged to participate; they would give them little envelopes to put loose change into and put in the basket.

  He Asked me to Marry him!

  by Sparkplug in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  actually i have a friend in mexico who wants a green card.

  i cannot see any purpose in marrying a very large, spanish speaking, gay man in order to get him a green card.

  but still he did learn to tell me he loves me in english.

  Did society go against Jehovah's will?

  by TweetieBird in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for decades it was always stressed (especially in one of the pubs that came out in the 70's, i think the one about the thousand years) that one of the signs of the beginning of the great tribulation would be when they started taxing religion.

  in another thread we were directed to http://www.bibletopics.com/biblestudy/84a.htm about the society going to court to support jimmy swaggert.

  it seems to me that maybe the society was running ahead of jehovah by doing so, and the organization started on a downward spiral since then, ultimately slapping jehovah in the face by going to bed with the un.

  Google adv "Meet single JW just like you"

  by mad max in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i can't understand why they have put this ad up on this site, as it is only people who are not jw who look at this site (and others) so why advertise "meet single jw just like you on this site".

  i thought maybe it was for single ex jw, so went into that site, and low and behold it was for jw only.

  they were saying something like this "... we would like to say thank you so much brothers for this site as i have meet my wife/husband etc ....and thank you so much jehovah..".

  by nicolaou in

  regret, anger frustration?

  how about sadness, sorrow, sympathy, understanding, even yearning!.

  it can be quite confusing at times.

  Did Genesis indicate literal creation days?

  by M.J. in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the wts and others say the 6 days of creation in genesis are symbolic of longer time periods, while many others insist that a proper (and uncompromising) exegis reveals literal days.

  i have a hunch that the author literally meant what he wrote.

  the jw counter-argument to this is that genesis was written by moses and moses wrote psalm 90, which reads in part (v4):.

  When the cat's away, Kwin and Talesin will play! Enjoy your convention JWs!

  by kwintestal in

  i was in the thinking room yesterday morning doing my usual routine, and between grunting and showering my mind was wondering when i came upon what i thought to be a great idea.

  this weekend is the weekend for the district convention where all the good little jw's will be attending.

  so i thought, if the jw's are at the convention, who's going to be at the kh?
