what about the dateline/pedophile show?
by crittersitter inafter all the recent events happening around us , i was wondering if any have kept an eye out for the dateline series on the peds in wtbs.. the way it's going this could end up being a mini-series about the "uncovering" of more wtbs lies and deceit.. the un thing sure was a shocker.
can the pedophile issue be any less shocking to the r& f??.
my own sister said she was sure the gb thought it over very carefully before they "joined".

my own sister said she was sure the GB thought it over very carefully before they "joined". she is right ...they just did not bother to tell the lower classes of mag pushers and had no idea that they would catch on. well, only some have been disturbed. the majority , i believe, will buy all of the spin on this..and there will be spin and damage control! I wonder if Bill Clinton is on the payroll...he could talk his way out of this...." I did not have sex with the UN" lol

hi mommy
i had about the same reaction from my sister(as above poster) she calmly stated that she was quite sure the bro's thought this out carefully and was sure this was to further the worldwide preaching work as well.
she also stated that she did not recall the wbts preaching AGAINST the un, but that is was simply the great beast blah blah blah...
I do not think that many dubs will get to overly upset over this news, as the spin miesters at hq have carefully woven their web of deceit and call it "new light".
I really thought this would send her into a tailspin and cause her to do some earnest research, but she's like the rest of the rank and file...defend the org to the bitter end. She was also quite sure all of the info was false, can't believe ANY thing from the net..
i came away from our conversation utterly defeated...what will it take to make them see the truth about the wbts????

Why are JWs scared of death?
by NikL ini have been thinking a lot lately about death.
this is not surprising considering the turn of events on the 11th.. i have been re-awakened to the transient nature of human life and how it can go in the blink of an eye.
as the bible says life is vanity and a striving for the wind.. with all of the talk about world war 3 and how dangerous this world has become, i have been on a bit of an emotional roller coaster this past week.. the fear of dying is a normal and basic emotion.

when my mom passed away i noticed that my sisters were almost beyond hysterical. strange behavior for those who claim death is a state of sleep like nothingness, and as mother was faithful, then she would more than likely be ressurected.
as i recall tho, in her memorial speech(given as a "talk", rather than much mention of her life) the elder did say that"IF Jehovah chooses, He can recreate her DNA( is this a form of cloning i wonder?), and she will be able to live once more in the (infamous) new system."
seems to me that there is no sure thing about what the jw's teach about life beyond this present world we live in. so yes, they are very afraid to die, because apart from what the Bible really says , they have been spoon fed the poison of "IF".
IF you please Jah
IF you stay in the org
IF you go to meetings
IF you don't get df'd
but alot of things seem to have changed since i was in...so maybe it's easier now to stay in the borg..
i dunno, but I 'm glad to be out either way

The Name Jehovah
by ruffian inplease can someone shed light on the claim that when the bible was originaly written it had the name jehovah in it over 7000 times but it was changed because of superstition?

there is a great little booklet i got from randy over at "freeminds.org". it deals with this very subject...it's called " afield service encounter" the publisher is "word resources, inc."
i started to read it again just today. if memory serves , the YHWH was found in the greek scriptures only when the writer was quoting the old test.
and all of the scriptures are quoted from wtbs ...and i think you would find this helpful..... -

I getting bored with this Board
by OlderTom ini'm just wondering if it is because i have changed and have gained my freedom from the watchtower enslavement or i just don't care anymore or is it that i have been exposed to too much of the same old complaints about the borg and all the false prophecies and the lies?.
i must admit i still get pleasure from reports of the watchtower walls starting to crumble al over the civilized world so i guess i'll continue to pop in from time to time.. as far as trying to de-program and rescue the poor unfortunate brainnumbed watchtower slaves, i think it's a total waste of time after all how do get through to people who prefer to believe in the lies when they know they are lies but they just don't want to see the real truth about the "truth(tm)".
i gues they don't want to see the real truth because it would force them to start thinking for them selves again and for some people that is just too much of a burden to bear.

Joyce Meyer and the nature of God
by Mommie Dark inafter i left the wt, i spent years isolated, dealing with the effects of my ethical dilemma on my own.
i pondered the nature of god and my place in his scheme of things, assuming, childishly, that such a scheme existed.
i prayed.

i like her too. she's a been there -done that- so i know- kinda gal.tuff as tripe, but i respect her cuz she tells it like it is. as far as selling books and tapes...why not? she's gotta eat too. at least she's not making it look like God is her banker and can do all this teaching and traveling backed by "donations"funneled into one big org.
she's probably the one person i would trust as far as "BIG_NAMES' go, the other evangilists leave me wondering.
have you ever listened to her tapes about before she was a christain?
man, she was awful....I believe GOD did do a miracle in her life, and she has nothing to hide, which i find refreshing. no pedophile staff on her bus i'll bet!!!
