  Super JW Cart

  by M*A*S*H in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  i have a confession to make.

  a strange urge is building in my brain... each time i see a jw literature cart on the street it builds.

  it is becoming a stronger and stronger thought in my mind.

  Just take lots of literature(to the recycle center). Public service, keeping it out of t h e hands of unsuspecting innocents.

  just feel like i could never make it on the outside world.

  i was never able to adjust, except in being a mom and in business.

  those are the only things that i feel strong in.

  You ARE making it. It's not easy, and you are struggling because it is challenging! Everyday you are doing it and every day that you finish s a win. The only real 'finish line' is death. Every day until then is going to be filled with challenge and joy and work and rest. Success and failures. Sadness sometimes and sometimes the joy will surround you until you can barely catch your breath. Find a balance and ask for help if you feel overwhelmed. Even if help is paid or from a church or agency or doctor.

  Now you have a lot of burdens to sort out. Trust me, they will get sorted!

  JW Sister: raped, pregnant what does she do?, abortion or adoption?

  by Olivia Wilde in

  this question came out frequently from a situation known to some of us who knew of 2 cases.... if a single or married sister gets rapped by stranger or incest, a pregnancy results, she is not allowed to have an abortion but neither is she allowed to give it up for adoption?...i always question why not up for adoption?...

  no you will be blood guilty because the child won't be raised in the "truth"... hmmmmm does anyone heard of that?

  is it a matter of consciousness?

  I never heard of objections to adoption. The abortion would be no option of course

  Critical Thinking and undeniable facts of true truiness

  by losthobbit in

  i was recently writing to someone on the fractal future forum.

  he came across as a very intelligent person, but i noticed that a post of his about medicine showed that he seemed to lack a lot of knowledge about medical testing and the scientific method.

  so, i asked him some questions, and his reply seemed to contain a logical fallacy in every sentence, concluding with a quote from mercola.com, one of those really dodgy conspiracy theory / anti-science type of sites.

  Do you ever feel like you are the only one who isn't going to run to the attic when ghouls attack? That never goes well.

  My mom, longtime JWs, is a big fan of garage sales. An elders wife had them 4x a year. Now my aunt was convinced of demons etc, but I think that JW wackiness is not universal

  How Jehovah's Witnesses could become a huge mainstream religion without harming people. Any thoughts?

  by JWchange in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if jws did the following, i believe they would grow exponentially and become one of the largest 'religions' on earth : .

  1. no more dfing or shunning......its up to your conscience who you like or don't like.

  in the same way if i was catholic living in ireland, i wouldn't hang out with my neighbor if she was a drunk fornicator, just had an abortion, had a taliban boyfriend and also supported liverpool soccer club.

  They never really wanted to be a religion and have never prided themselves on being Christian. They want number$, not to be Mr Rogers and pope Francis all wrapped up in rainbows and church suppers. They want money without pesky humanity mucking up the works with any kind of needs, whether emotional, spiritual, financial, physical or social. The entire set up now lets you know that!

  It's notable that an admittedly fake religion is kinder to sick people than the " true Christians", Jehovah's Witnesses and the wtbts.

  Probably is a surety to make sure they didn't start a project and leave it half done and moldering for decades, depreciating local property values. Now that it has reached a degree of completion, they believe it will be completed and they have the wherewithal to finish what they started.

  The timing makes me wonder, of course! Maybe they need that TO complete it, or to hold them over until their ship comes in. I think that returning it in chunks might be normal. Or maybe not!

  What is your purpose or what do you wish to accomplish while a member of this board?

  by Tenacious in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when i joined this forum i was seeking more people who felt the same way i did in terms of seeing the jehovah's witness organization for what it truly was; a false prophet.. once i found like-minded members i slowly started to open up and participate more in trying to help others that were also exiting mentally and physically.

  today, i offer support to anyone who desires it regardless of what they believe or not believe.. so what is your purpose on this board?.

  support?

  Morbid curiosity. Info about a train wreck in progress. Self congratulatory back pats for escaping while young(whew!). Encouragement for those trapped in. People who understand the perversity of family relationships in the org.
