Big difference between having an IP address and having proof that a certain person posted something using it.

Nope nuh-uhhh weren't me...Doesn't work with RIAA, but the Dubs are at least a bit reasonable when you explain that you use an un-encrypted wireless set-up.

my lovely girlfriend and i sat down over a homecooked meal, and discussed the pros and cons of attending the memorial.. i decided, with her support, that we would attend.. i spent years of my life pretending to be a witness to please my mother.

when i left the witnesses, my mother said some hurtful things.. and those things really hurt me... for a while.

but i established myself as my own person, developed my own relationships, and have gotten a good start on my own life.. i don't know that i want to hurt my mother back, but i do want to make it abundantly clear to her, my grandmother, and all the members of my former congregation, that richierich is alive and kicking.. and i think that walking into the kingdom hall, dressed respectfully in a suit, yet with full piercing jewelry intact, and with erika wearing something classy that steals the brother's eyes, and draws glares from the humble sisters, will be just the thing to send that message to my mother.. i don't plan on partaking or making a disturbance.

Meh, go. Try to get a BJ in the library or something......

JWs claim disfellowshipping is biblical!

by greendawn in

regarding disfellowshipping the jws claim it is a policy necessary to keep their organisation spiritually and morally clean so that they won't lose the grace of the holy spirit and run further risks with dangerous influences.

they even say if the disfellowshipped want they can always repent and will be gladly reaccepted into communion with jw brotherhood so it's up to them to remove any anguishing shunning.

though this may appear to be a reasonable belief it is not quite as straight forward as it seems.

it was Cordelia using my login

That sounds kind of hot.....

You no longer need to be a JW to get into the New System..???

by OUTLAW in

when i lived farther up country..i had a car load of dub ladys come to the ranch..i told them they supported an organization that would kill everyone but jw`s.thats what i was taught when i was a kid..they said "no",that decision will be made at armageddon..??

?..i figuered "theocratic warefare stratagey"..they were lying to me!.....i talked to my mom a few years later and made the same comment..she said "no,that decision will be made at armageddon.??

?.this is the person that taught that doctrine to me.i just rolled my eyes.more "theocratic warefare stratagey".that woman woud lie in a heart beat for the wbt$.....yesterday the subject came up on a thread and hillary_step said the comment is true.....hillary and i have been friends for years,he totally blew me away..i could`nt believe what i was reading..he said the change had been made in the "90`s".....so now i have some questions for those who are more up to date on this subject than i..hillary_step,if your kick`n around please chime in.......#1:when did the wbt$ decied to quit preaching only the jw`s would get into the new system?..#2if you no longer need to be a jw to get into the new system,why bother?..#3:dieing at armageddon because your not a jw,was a gun to your head to join the jw`s.what do they use now?.....this isn`t the same religion i walked away from decades ago..this,the un scandel,the generation change,blood factions now acceptable..the wbt$ is morphing before our eyes and jw`s dont see it..lol!

MinisterAmos

The point that has been missed is that JWs DO NOT say that "you must be a JW to survive Armageddon", only that you must "Live your life in a manner that is pleasing to Jehovah".

Coincidentally they also preach that the only people who please Jehovah are The Witnesses.

So no, they technically DO NOT say that you must be a Witness to survive, but it's just mealy-mouthed BS.

Truly we can see that it is a religion run by lawyers. Technicality is the new anointment.

JW are total Bullies

by sandy in

my grandmother passed away the other night.

it was expected; she's been sick in/out of the hospital for a while now.

most of us are more relieved than anything else because she has been so miserable these last six months or longer.

MinisterAmos

Some perfect examples of what the WatchTower calls "persecution" going on here. What the WT hides from its gullible members is that this is not actually persecution, but retribution for their offensive actions.

Persecution is discrimination much like what was practiced against the Jews during WW2 or any type of racial discrimination.

I Figured Out The Easiest Way To Expose Jehovah's Witnesses!!!!

just say the truth.

don't embellish.

just give the facts to people.....for example, tell people that jws don't think it's wrong to actually lie if they believe that telling the truth to a person could hurt them.

MinisterAmos

Never lie. One false statement or exaggeration and every statement you make is viewed with scepticism.

Watchtower--NGO With WANGO!

watchtower--ngo with wango!

if the watchtower society truly believes in a "new world" then why are they joining organizations that are attempting to make this old one better?

activitieswango is unique in regularly bringing together a prestigious, international leadership of non-governmental organizations, as well as other prominent leaders, representing diverse nations, perspectives, and realms of activity, and who are integrally involved in advancing world peace and creating a better society and world.

MinisterAmos

No they are not with WANGO. It's a stupid prank to discredit them. I wouldn't doubt that a witness did it just so he could laugh his azz off over how much attention the 'postates give his little joke.
