  i just came across this comment by albert:

  "he who joyfully marches in rank and file has already earned my contempt.he has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal

  I was gonna put in my application for Bethel service but with them laying everybody off, I guess I'll just stay here and go to college...

  I agree. So far this suggestion wins hands down.

  Breakthrough with JW mother - Stunning Anti Witness !

  by diamondblue1974 in

  i thought i would share this with you as i am still a little bit stunned to say the least.

  my mother who is a longstanding jw came to stay over the christmas period as my uncle had past away and she wanted to be more local to the family, that way she could attend the funeral and provide some support to her remaining brothers and sisters.

  she lives a considerable distance away from me at this moment in time.

  guys, im deliriously happy that im nearly out.. my mind is now free of morbid, gloomy thoughts of the future.

  its a freedom that is indeed priceless.. i now feel less need to drink (although im having a beer to celebrate just now)!!

  i have been for some time atheist, i doubt it will ever change.

  Man that letter makes me want to puke. So basically what they're saying is, "We are and always have been full of crap! Now, go publish magazines and never mind the fact that we've destroyed thousands of families and are also guilty of murder! After all your the numbskull that took the bait, hook, line and sinker!"

  I was getting ready for dinner but I've suddenly lost my appetite.

  Where else has WT slammed higher education?

  by kristyann in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know that i have not been on this discussion forum for quite a long time, and to anyone that might have messaged me, i'm sorry if i didn't get back to you and i will still try to.

  i kept very busy with school, and then after my finals i had so much going on with family members visiting from out of town for christmas, new year's and a couple of birthdays in the family.

  i hope everyone had a great christmas and i was hoping that you could help me out with something.. i am trying to collect as many articles and publications from the watchtower society that frown upon college and higher education as possible (don't ask why, it's just a little personal project of mine).

  I’ve posted this quote before on this forum but who can find anything they’re looking for here buried in almost 5000 pages of topics. This is one of my favorite WBTS quotes regarding higher education.

  Many schools now have student counselors who encourage one to pursue higher education after high school, to pursue a career with a future in this system of things. Do not be influenced by them. Do not let them "brainwash" you with the Devil's propaganda to get ahead, to make something of yourself in this world. The world has very little time left! Any "future" this world offers is no future! ... Make pioneer service, the fulltime ministry, with the possibility of Bethel or missionary service your goal. This is a life that offers an everlasting future!- The Watchtower, March 15, 1969

  Did you criticise/expose the WTS after leaving?

  by greendawn in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  after leaving the jws as df/ed or disass/ed were you willing to expose them for what they are to others, or were you unwilling to do so because you still felt respect for them for being the "truth"?

  This is the very reason that the WBTS warns the rank-n-file JDub to avoid apostates and paints them as pure evil. The WBTS knows that ex-JDubs or apostates are aware of their lies and will feel a moral obligation to inform others regarding the dangers of this cult. Therefore they must vilify us and condem us to protect themselves. All in the name of almighty God! Now that takes balls my friends.
