  Need some advice

  by craigulous in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  to all my new friends, i need some advice.

  as i posted in my original post i am not disfellowshipped, i just did a fade as i believe everyone here calls it.

  i have great parents who are still part of the organization, and do not pressure me, but at the same time i must live a lie, and they have no problem with me living a lie, as long as they are comfortable.

  Here is the problem with fading...you cannot freely express yourself and you really have no real relationship or closeness with whatever family and friends you may have in the 'truth.'

  You try to put on a show for them and it ends up eating you up. Your wife is right to a degree, thing is its not that YOU need to be disfellowshipped or disassociated, instead YOU NEED TO DISASSOCIATE JW's FROM YOUR LIFE.

  here is a thread I posted about conditioning and how to uncondition your own mind.

  US Politics - please read

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  we're already being innundated with the drivel that is the us political process.. propaganda, right and left.

  no one wants to discuss or debate, they just want to shout in each others faces.. so, here's the rules:.

  you can discuss politics as long as you are discussing things.if you just post copy-and-paste propaganda it will be deleted.if you post it in anywhere but the politics area it will be deleted.if it's the inane "obama can't prove he was born" or "romney is an alien" crap then it will be deleted.if you repeatedly violate the above, including trying to get threads shut-down, then you will be deleted.this has been a public service announcement on behalf of the "i dont' give a shit, the government always gets elected" party.. .

  Nowadays the moral character of many is weakened.
  They need clear values and standards,
  and the wisdom that I share from the Bible
  is invaluable to them.

  Yeah thats sky scrapper level bullshit!

  Laying on their side for 3 days

  by exwhyzee in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it's been so long since i was at a meeting that i'm beginning to forget a lot of the nonsense i used to know, but does anyone remember how the society used to say that when the gb members were imprisioned around 1919 it fullfilled the prophesy about the prophet laying on his side for 3 days in the roadway ?.

  what was that all about and how does their belief regarding their role in fulfilling this prophesy effect the new thinking on the definition of "generation" ?

  it seems like they just had to amend the term "generation" in order to keep the year 1914 relevant as well as all the other supposed fullfilments of prophesy they thought they were part of.

  I think what OP is refereing to dubs believe that when rutherford and pals were imprisoned in 1918 (or whenever it was) this was in fulfilment of prophesy in revelation where the 2 witnesses were killed, laid in the public square for 3 days and than were resurected.

  Interesting way to start here:

  The Jefferson Bible: The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth
  by Thomas Jefferson
  
  Thomas Jefferson believed that the pure-principled teachings of Jesus should have been separated from the dogma and abuse of organized religion of the day. This led him to recast, by cutting and pasting from the gospels, a new narrative of the life and teachings of Jesus, where, according to Jefferson, "there will be found remaining the most sublime and benevolent code of morals which has ever been offered to man."
