Response to question:
It reads as fiction. Writes as fiction, or novel like. Requires better college course study to submit as believable.
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.
This submittal reads like a fiction novel.
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?
Police should arrest you.
Lawless actions are not tolerable, not to descent people.
Your conduct/ treatment to any disgusting or truly real pediphiles by use of these signs on the lawn only brings honor to the pediphiles of the world who look upon your behaviour as a geat act and honor of them. Do not do this.
If someone in your family murders, does this make you a person to be tagged as a murderer..? A lawless response is as vile as the act of those who attack our innocents.
the whitewashed history of the watchtower society in nazi germany.. the man who became leader of the german branch of the watchtower society after the war is without exception portrayed as a beacon of virtue and faith, standing fearless against the nazis:.
*** w89 5/1 12 jehovah has sustained me as a friend ***.
many of the loyal ones, among them erich frost and konrad franke, who suffered much for the lords sake and later became branch overseers in germany, returned alive from the fiery furnace of persecution.. .
Tripe...!!!
regret, anger frustration?
how about sadness, sorrow, sympathy, understanding, even yearning!.
it can be quite confusing at times.
Delighted to see faith in action. Also proud.
They said bad things about the Christ, similar to the ones who have deviated and make rude comments in this questionaire.
that's on their website....do you believe this?
Ones reading and responding negatively to the article seem to like to deviate from original, consistantly at that.
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.
No Titheing.
No plate to be passed.
All on "Voluntary" bible based, contributions from the heart. If your broke or rich your not required to give anything.
Christ said, quote"You recieved free, you give free", no charge. The Gospel or Kingdom is without charge.
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.
NO.
Do you research. Do you do the math. Or are you only enterested in defaming without discernment.
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.
I cannot believe the response material I am reading.. Has the World Gone MAD..??
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..".
Your in a tough situation because your emotions are strong, and are especially strong for the other person you mentioned.
They are asking you to wait for a good reason.
And, how were you initially associated with Gods people..What was your initial motivation..? to study at greater depths, mature, advance spiritaully. or
to seek out a life-long partner..?
My only suggestion, and this is just a suggestion, your personal matters are yours alone.
Allow time to let matters settle with all involved, you, the other person, the congregation and so forth. Dont rush. Never rush a life-long serious commitment.
Continue to do your Bible studies, meeting attendance. reach out for the ministry. In a short time the other person will show their true loyalties, and with both spiritually mature your wait will be blessed and no futher problems from others who are at present trying to give a frustrated advice. ( Good intentions and all).
Scripturally you are , all are required to "marry only in the Lord". or within your faith. A famous Radio Mental Health Doctor will often advise her listeners to marry only within ones faith. If you are honsest and truly wanting to no longer associate with the congregation and fulfill your duties as a desciple of Christ and be known in the community as one of Jehovahs Witnesses. please do not add to one mistake by compounding it with another. The other person may likely return back to Jehovah's Witnesses at a future date and then where will yo be...?? Stay if you honestly and truly believe this is the Truth, otherwise you may be best served to leave the matter and not persue this other person. Or, do greater research with a mature sister you trust.
