Let's play a game - Follow the WTS $$ trail
by watch the tower ina huge question that i have in the back of my mind regarding the wts is where all of the money ends up.
no one really has a conclusive answer to that.
i think it would reveal a lot if we were able to find out.. i know there have been various threads in the past where it revealed a clue here and a clue there.

Family Reunion
by Cori inthis past weekend, i attended my family's annual reunion (scheduled a week before thanksgiving, and they served turkey...hmmm) and became literally sick because they are all jw and talked of nothing else.
i finally realized how sad the normal jw's life is.
they really have nothing else going for them, thats why the thought of leaving is so unbelievable.

This is really scary, they all say the same things, my mom went through that with me, all jokes aside, this really is like the Borg, I should have kept my mouth shut, and was successful for quite awhile, but eventually my mouth took over when she began getting sarcastic and speaking down to me and some things came out, which I regret having said, only because she is in her mid 60's, divorced, a regular pioneer, what else does she have? Some of my family that is in the know and I decided we would not say anything so as not to affect her, but well, it's done, she knows how we feel, but that we still attend the meetings and has left it alone, thank God.
Cori, you did well by just smiling and nodding and such, don't open you mouth,unless you are willing to deal with the consequences.

Do you think that the Watchtower and Awake Mags are Idols?
by MsMcDucket ini remember thinking that the magazines were "holy".
i was afraid to throw them away.
isn't this like idol worship?

I see what you mean, and I used to feel the same way, had boxes and boxes of the stuff, because I just couldn't bear to throw them away- what if, when persecution comes and they take away all our literature at the hall, I can hide all this literature and share it among the brethren, as a source of spiritual food?WHAT BS!
Now, however they have served a better purpose, they have been excellent therapy for me - during my journey out of the brainwashing I eventually got to the point where you feel extreme anger at the WTS for all the damage they have caused to so many people, for their arrogance etc. well I felt a great sense of release and pleasure with every WT and Awake Mag I ripped up and dumped out, it was great, really.
I did something beneficial for myself and cleared the crap from my house all at the same time.

Atlantis thank you for that link - what the watchtower reps. say is truly amazing crap, I have to type some of it out to share here, so everyone can see the lies and coverup from their own lips, oh, and thanks for your breakdown of what these crooks are raking in, while having the audacity to ask the congregations for money to pay for their employees, the CO's, this stuff should be gathered and forwarded to the IRS, this really pisses me off , the R & F told to keep their life simple, don't be materialistic, don't save for retirement and they are raking in billions AARRGGGGGGHHHHHHH!
I hope they get taxed to the max in the US and every other country.

defd, closes eyes, and silently says, it's not true, it's all apostate lies, Jehovah's people live in spiritual paradise, repeats this 5 times, does a prayer, and gets back on the JWD to continue his witnessing work.

Do you believe that Religion benefits mankind?
by jeanniebeanz in.
or is it a detriment to society?.
i'm sure this has been asked before, but since there are so many new people here i'll ask again.... j

ICBehindtheCurtain
defd, yeah, what Nic said? I have also wondered about that, if you are for real, then that only shows how deep cult brainwashing can go. How can you read all the stuff on here and still believe in this religion?

Java, thanks, I must add this to my collection, I hope it really opens some minds, maybe, hopefully, help these religious zealots to put down their weapons, and contribute to the spread of peace around the world, oh, oh I feel a song coming on......
I know you say, I'm a dreamer
but I'm not the only one
I hope someday you will join us
and the world can live as one
by the late, great John Lennon, wherever you are buddy, I hope your dream comes true.
