I broke my apprenticeship and regular pioneered while living with my non JW parents. My dad wanted the same rent from me even though I only worked two days a week. He certainly would not have had a good word to say about a religion that encouraged me to do that.

As far as Watchtower is concerned if you do not accept their policies and doctrines and you speak out about them, then you are treated as an apostate. As such your letter would go straight in the bin

Why are the atheists on this site so hateful?
by HopeEverLasting inall us creationists try to do is offer true evidence that the one and only god is out there watching and looking down on us.
we present that certain scientists know the truth about god and that he is everything that we see from trees, life, weather, the air we breath, and even the most simple molecules.
but of course you atheists reject it because it is your nature to not be humble and see god because you want to rule your own life.

I am an atheist but certainly not hateful. I just feel sorry for those who believe in an all knowing, loving god.
Why not try and look at the evidence against a god being in charge of everything and about to destroy 99% of the world's population.

Kingdom Ministry Nov 1999
- WEB SITES OF JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES: Consider, for example, some Internet sites set up by individuals who claim to be Jehovah's Witnesses. They invite you to visit their web sites to read experiences posted by others who claim to be Witnesses. You are encouraged to share you thoughts and views about the Society's literature. Some give recommendations about presentations that could be used in the field ministry. These site offer chat rooms for individuals to connect to, allowing live communication with others, similar to talking on the telephone. They often point you to other sites where you can have online association with Jehovah's Witnesses around the world. But can you tell for certain that these contacts have not been planted by apostates?

It is absolutely galling to me that my wife submits herself to this madness
by jambon1 ini've tried to get over this, i honestly have.
since i stopped my kids going to meetings, things have gotten a little better.. but knowing the content of the convention programme that she was subjected to on friday, it amazes me and greatly annoys me that she goes back for more, today.
for her to sit there watching those crazy, fear mongering bunker videos.

The good thing is that you can ask her about any of the crazy videos they are showing as they are mainly all available online. Just choose one that will hit home when explained by someone not indoctrinated any more.

Chelmsford is green-lighted
by Saltheart Foamfollower inlooks like chelmsford is going ahead after all.
here is the text of a letter to be read out this week:.
to all congregations in britain and irelandre: branch relocation project updatedear brothers:we rejoice to inform you that in june of this year, the governing body gave approval for thebritain branch to relocate to new facilities that will be constructed just south of chelmsford.

We are also pleased to attach a newsletter showing what the new branch facilities will look
like. This will be a quarterly feature to inform all of the project’s progress, and will include ways
you can support the project.In JW language I fear that means you can give money for the project. JWs are not supposed to realize the fortune the org will get for Mill Hill Bethel

Contempt of court, case in San Diego county really disgusts me!
by Crazyguy inthis case has to be talked about by ever awake jw every apostate everyone.
this case because they refuse to hand over documents the court already knows they have because they handed them over before but heavily redacted, is the icing on the cake!
this case shows thier evil plain and simple.

The extra good news is that every day that goes by increases the debt. The bigger it is the more JWs will hopefully wake up.

Am i reading this right...? The preaching work is done??
by Nobodyspecial inim sorry if this has been addressed, i have not seen any topics on this yet.. the wt for today seems to state, quiet plainly, that preaching work is done.
para 14,15 the question asks:.
"what proves that jehovahs witnesses have fulfilled jesus' prophecy with regard to the scope of the work?".

Over a third of the world has never even heard the JW message, and most of the rest have no idea of their beliefs

Study article: "Go, and Make Disciples.." is a hot mess
by Sanchy inso i hooked into meeting via phone this week to listen in and was shocked at the absurdities mentioned in the study article (2016 may watchtower: "go,..and make disciples of people of all the nations").
the answer is obvious—only jehovah’s witnesses.
the answer the missionary priest gave in no way proves that jws are the only ones "preaching the good news".

According to Ray Franz when the society were sending missionaries out, they were told to go to the 'Christians' first before they went to any people of other religions.
In other words they already knew about Jesus and the bible, long before the Watchtower missionaries got there.
