Keep the Watchtower out of your Facebook account.
by Awen inwith all the posts about the society hacking into facebook accounts, this new setting which was implemented today might be of some use for many people.. http://gawker.com/5744229/the-facebook-setting-you-should-change-as-quickly-as-possible.
one of the nice additions, besides using https protocols is the addition of having the option to be notified via e-mail if your account is accessed from a new computer or mobile device.
this will enable you to hopefully track the hacker and notify the authorities of suspected cyber crimes.. the watchtower would finally be able to be prosecuted for their hacking into jw and ex-jw accounts.. .

by NVR2L8 infor a long while i have been coming to this site on a daily basis and i think it is time to introduce myself.
here we go: my parents learned the truth when i was 4 and i don't have childhood memories of how life was before they converted.

NVR2L8 ,Welcome to you ! There are so many of us that have such similar awakenings ....looking around at the older ones at the DC and thinking that will be us very soon ,was definitely a thought I had . Much of what got my mind working was first from the Watchtower Society itself not apostate sites .....those only confirmed what I already suspected .
I hope your wife will join you in really living the rest of your life .....

OOPs .....DY I am sorry you took that as me saying you shouldn't be here . Not what I meant ,really . I just was trying to understand how your experience is so different than mine . We noticed the mid-west congregations (especially small ones ) were much more strict and into everyones personal business than large coastal cities .
I went back and read some of your early posts .You have been around here a very long time . Then you took a break and came back again . It has to be hard to be married to an active spouse and yet have dep down doubts about the religion . I assume you are trying to come to terms with your own cognitive dissonance ,and that's cool . We all are learning at different speeds and have different circumstances .
No kidding ...it must be very hard on your conscience to come here and post when you are still struggling with not wanting to believe the Society is wrong . I get it .
Didn't mean to step on your toes there . DO what you got to do .....

Hey Doubtfully Yours ,I have just been wondering have YOU ever been counseled for being on this site ???
Because when I was actively attending it was abundantly clear we should never visit discussion forumns known to be active with apostate views . We were told not to even open a letter from an apostate in fear of reading and being stumbled by their 'half truths' . How is it you have such a different experience as a Witness than me ? I was a witness all my life ,44, yrs . and you always seem to disagree with others about HOW things really are in the congregation .
I am being serious . Are you in an American congregation ? Is it in a large city or small town ? Midwest or coastal ?

That is what our former Elders did back in 2004 for anyone on Myspace (was facebook around then ? ) If you had an account you could not aux pioneer or have other wonderful privledges ....you could still clean the hall and mow the lawn though . They ragged on any chat forums and social networks from the stage ,but only made the other ultimatium to people in personal discussions . Many of the teens and twenty somethings just learned to change their names online by using symbols or aka names .
I have noticed recently several local MS and Pioneers have deleted their facebook accounts it is a ego game around here they like to play to see who is more righteous ,but in a few months they will be back under assumed names.

When the Reptillian Anti-Christ is unmasked, what is your firearm of choice to kill our invaders?
by WingCommander inthis subject thread has been on my mind for a while, especially after seeing "zombieland" and foodall's thread about our possible ufo/reptilian over lords/realion/alien invaders.
when the great day of reckoning comes, whether it be from ufo alien invaders, realian reptilian over lords, demons in human-hybrid form, or just plain old virus-infected zombies, what will you be carrying to defend yourself from the hostile forces of e-vile?
please, no one say a "bible" or i'm going to just laugh my ass off.
