Lot of energy, one could say that. In the words of Adrian Monk, it can be a blessing and a curse.

My Story

by jwfacts in

i received an email from a lawyer who has been studying with witnesses for some time.

he wanted to know my story, if i am disfellowshipped and if i have an axe to grind, in order to know if the information at jwfacts.com can be trusted.

i was raised a jw, my aunty and uncle, many cousins and grandparents are jws.

It was my time at Bethel that convinced me that the Watchtower Society does not have Jehovah's direction. In 1994 a Bethelite friend of mine was made an elder whilst he was committing adultery. It was later discovered that this had been going on for 7 years. This proved to me that God’s holy spirit is not involved in Watchtower congregational appointments.

This was very instrumental in my leaving as well. In fact I found that the greater my doubts and the more active I became as an "apostate" the more "privileges" I was granted. If there were some deity controlling things that should not have been. Further, if that protection from "Jehovah" was indeed non-existent then their "two witness" policy regarding sex offenders is suicidal.

The JW movement will always be a part of my roots and my past that I embrace.

Generalized Apathy Towards Relgion- Humanity Is Waking Up?

by nvrgnbk in

jw
friends

though many millions are still under the spell of ignorance-inducing belief-systems, have you personally noted people in your day-to-day to be less and less involved in religion?.

that's been my experience.

it gives me great hope about the future of humanity.

truthsetsonefree

Agreed, at least here in the NorthEastern US. Of course that may be partially validating the JW religion is ending hypothesis. I don't think religion is going anywhere but many people seem to be waking up through education.

Manufactured Blood (UPI News article) -- Would it pass Borg Approval?

by SnakesInTheTower in

i just ran across this on upi (united press international) .

so the question is: would the borg/gb/legal consider this blood or an organ transplant, since it comes from cultured stem cells?.

snakesinthetower (of the curious sheep .

truthsetsonefree

The GB will have to give it due consideration "under prayer" and determine what "Jehovah's Will" is on the matter.

The women at JWD are a large army.

by ThomasCovenant in

because of the constraints on women in the watchtower society with regard to being in positions of visible authority (eldership and teaching, talks etc) i would say that most of us never got to see the potential input that the 'sisters' could have made to sharing knowledge and teaching.

sure some 'sisters' could give good no 3 and 4 talks but that was about it.. however since coming to this site i cannot help but have respect for the many women that post here.

their depth of intellect and knowledge is much appreciated.. (of course i am assuming that they are women from their avatars and names.).

truthsetsonefree

We have some fine ladies here. Additionally, look at Barbara Andersen has been able to do. I think that it is poetic justice that they are being taken to task by one of the "sisters" who they would have remain in submission.
