  Something thats really started to be irritating to me!

  this is something that's really started to be irritating to me here and on some other forums that i visit.

  while i've seen it in the past it seems to be getting out of hand (see the 9/11 and global warming threads) people are arguing or discussing something and all of the sudden you start seeing massive cut and paste documents!

  one person post a 1000 word essay (or more) by a claimed expert supporting their side then the other does the same.

  New to the forum - want to introduce myself

  hi my name is lillian and i am posting for my first time.

  i was a witness along with my husband and two children for 12 years and gave in my letter of disasociation about a year and a half ago.

  i have struggled with the guilt of bringing my family in contact with the witnesses (i have always been a bible searcher) and i am only coming to terms with this recently.. i now consider myself a born again believer in christ jesus and read my bible daily to check and see what is true.

  Ray Franz---A Man We Owe Our Thanks To

  by minimus in

  i've been thinking of how all of our lives have changed from learning about this religion and getting out.

  probably no one has done more to help us understand the truth about "the truth" than raymond franz.

  of course there were others that questioned dates, prophecies and dogma but it was ray franz that revolutionized the organization.

  I recently read CoC and it was areal eye-opener for me. I have been out long enough to know it is not the truth, but he showed me things I never knew. He deserves all of our thanks.

  .

  jesus seemed to believe in the story of noah's flood.

  i wonder if god really drowned millions of people like the bible says for simply eating and drinking and not taking any note?

  Ace-cecil gets d-shipped..............

  by ace-cecil in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  well it happened, oh my goodnes, it only took like 3 hours going around in circles!!!

  well its a very long story people, but i have to thankyou for the help yesterday, because i totally wasnt myself in the meeting and i actually questioned them and challenged them, and one of the elders is like wow you've changed, is this someone else talking?and i was like no, my questions are genuine, from me and hes like what are you studying at uni, theology?and im like no, sport and recreation!!!

  !and at first i took my sister and i wanted her to come in but they wouldnt let her, then once i started questioning them, they could only say the same few things like the faithfull and discreet slaves are the directed ones and i have to believe them and then basicaly tried to make it that i was diassociating myself and i was like, no, i dont want to leave as long as i could research from other sources and they kinda ignored that and pretended like it was fine after telling me it wasnt, but disfellowshipping me because i said i couldnt promise them i wouldnt do a couple of things they frown upon again and that i didnt know if i was repentant untill i knew that they were wrong in my heart.
