  i was brought up a jw untill i was seventeen, even got baptized.

  when i was seventeen i got disfellowshipped.

  tried for about three years of sitting in a hall of non stop ignorant people claming to be christian, is it christian to be ignorant or just rude?

  Great Experiences- I was serfing the net ad came across APOSTATES

  2. experiences

  wow, yeah i was looking fr the theocratic ministry school oral review questions and i came across an apostate site!

  the site was www.jehovahs-witness.com and was just fill of retarded apostates!

  they were not only using a domain name and header name that denotes a conection with the actual watchtower society, but where using it to blasphem the jehovah's true organization in order to help people break away.

  I remember bringing that question up with the lady I study with, she said they were not real that the devil distracts us with things like dinosaurs and UFO's to keep us busy and away from the truth! I said that can't be right because we now have their bones and ( she gave me her old green Bible when we started) there is what looks a dinosaur on the inside cover of HER Bible that she gave me!! Well she didn't say anything after that.

  Does anyone else flip off the Kingdom Hall when they drive by?

  by Dustin in

  2. friends

  so it has become habit for me to go out of my way when driving to make sure i can give it the finger as i drive by.

  i especially like to do this on the way to one of my favorite bars, especially on meeting nights just so people who knew me can see me do it.

  i don't know why, but this has become a tradition of sorts.

  No I don't do that, I feel sorry for the peolple that are still in the "borg" as the expression goes, I would love to run in the hall and tell everyone the "truth" about the "truth". But I know they wouldn't believe me. So i'm stuck hoping that some day the 'scales' will fall off their eyes! Thanks Yvonne

  Another 607 / 587 BCE question, How do JW's fix the 20 years ??

  by run dont walk in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  ok, since all the evidence and people/scholars etc, all agree that jerusalem was destroyed in 587/586 bce and not 607 bce.

  how do the jw's get the extra 20 years, i understand the 2520 years and going back from 1914. but alot of the proof goes by adding up the kings reigns, and it gets you to the 587/586 date, do jw's simply add on a few years for each king, or is their a mystery king that ruled for 20 years that only they know about.. hhhhhhmmmmmmm.

  hope my question makes sense.

  I must say sorry to "dannybloem". I was too harsh on him, just a bad day I guess. He reminds me of another guy on a guest book web site that is 'always' upsetting people who just left the society. So any way sorry dannybloem!! Thanks Yvonne
