  It's not the same for everyone, I know that's a shock for some. I was 16 and knew exactly what it meant for me. I made on conscious decision based on facts. I compared religions and doctrines, I made a thorough investigation and knew what DFing meant. Of course it was fake, all religion is fake as far as I am concerned, but out of all of them this seemed to be it. They really knew how to appeal to psuedo intellectualism and guilt. Bastards.

  Ending Bible Study

  by Maria Nieves in

  i have been studying with jehovah's witnesses for approximately two years.

  initially, i liked the studies and felt that i was growing closer to god.

  however, as the studies progressed, they seemed to become increasingly negative and i did not like what i was being taught.

  Maria, by stopping your studies you will force their hand and they will show you just how conditional their friendships are. Once they do you won't have any problem seeing where their loyalty lies. In reality you are a notch on someone's belt.

  Where is the indignation towards Donald Trump for banging a porn star while his wife is home with his newborn son? Once a liar always a liar? How noble.

  "The 1986 Watchtower article speaks about certain Governing Body members who had to resign due to rumored sinful practices".

  Not in anyone's defense but I don't believe that 1986 article gave any names or stated anything about "certain Governing Body members".

  It's not right to refer to something that may be assumed but is NOT written. I think it said, "prominent ones" and did not name names. There have been many "prominent ones" who were not Gov Body members in addition to the non prosecuted and non-convicted persons named by Caminante. Lurkers may look up the reference and see that assumptions are being read as quoted material, thus losing any faith in the comments found here.

  The awful treatment of my disfellowshipped cousin still continues

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  2. beliefs

  my cousin was disfellowshipped twenty years ago when he was 18 years old.

  he admitted to the congregation elders that he was fornicating with his ''wordly'' girlfriend.

  the elders were following him and hiding in their cars to see what he was up to.

  Divide and conquer seems to be the intent. Criminal organization.

  Nudity in the movie "Roma"

  by Wonderment in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in the movie "roma," a man is shown making some martial type moves with a sword totally naked.

  and the scene is not so brief, giving a clear glimpse of his private parts.

  it is a very graphic scene.

  At her most sarcastic my mom referred to the male member as a tallywacker.

  if you haven't seen it already, skip to 1:14:30 in lloyds video and watch the craziness unfold.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2y7f7-k5wo.

  i'd love to hear everyone's thoughts on this.. they're digging themselves a great hole here, in about 30 years time they'll be claiming this video was a mere "speculation" and that "some people" got the wrong ideas..

  Unspeakable arrogance - As Usual

  today's wt para 1. if you are a young person, you have likely received much advice about your future.

  teachers, guidance counselors, or others may have encouraged you to pursue higher education and a lucrative career.

  jehovah, however, advises you to take a different course.

  Let's face it, Capone was doing many criminal activities including murder but they got him on tax evasion. The money always trips these idiots up.
