What gets me is that the true purpose of this cult is to cut people off from the rest of the world, put a lot on their shoulder and make them feel worse when they crumble under the weight. Its a money making organization, and what gets me is how there is no room for personal opinion. You either agree or disagree and shut up and don't tell anyone. How these people can have views on things like this isn't a shock, its just how far they go to set them in stone. Its based on fear, and unless i am crazy Jesus said his yolk is light, easy to carry and that despite trials you wouldn't be alone. Youths are torn to pieces with guilt over masturbation and attraction to a girl/lad depending on their sex (or preference). Who are the society to destroy a life so early, and mould people who HAVE feelings and emotions.

JW writing committee: Incapable of seeing the irony!
by sir82 inthe march 1 watchtower's cover asks the question, "where can you find christ's teachings?".
meanwhile, in the very same magazine, we get 2 study articles containing the following:.

Jw's and rape
by KW13 ini am a teenage lad btw...
i was shocked to read that witnesses teach that unless a woman doesn't shout out and make it clear they dont feel like being raped today, that they basically consented to it.
how stupid is that?

HOW STUPID IS THAT? i know someone who was raped and she said she went numb, and couldn't move or anything. Like she was sat away and watching as someone else. Firstly, i don't like a religion to have such a strong view on something to get it so wrong. Women, JW's or not. I am sorry!

This question is not meant to be..well..weird but....
by stillAwitness indo any of you parents and/or sons and daughters feel weird about sleeping in the same bed as your parent and/or son or daughter?

YOU EVER FEEL SCARED IT IS THE TRUTH?
by Cordelia injust wondered as im prob about to give up so much, coz i dont think it is the truth but its come as such a shock!.
my family believe it so much, my dad feels he can answer any question i have, and being brought up in it sometimes it scares me.
coz my family believe it so much, .

I don't get scared its the truth, i know if when i was reviewing the whole thing that they presented clear facts i would of accepted them. Since their facts were lies i know that the religion is based on lies and can't be what God wanted. What scares me is that it changes so radically that i won't be able to use evidence to show my mum what she is in.

A "friend" has died.
by Nellie ini met this man 17 years ago - new to the city, he was an elder in the congregation.
his personality was warm and loud - (a new yorker, of course) -- i had left home, but i was reminded of home every time he opened his mouth.
one of the most endearing things about him was the way he pronounced jehovah - with an "er" at the end, more like jehover... boy was he loud and warm.

He sounds like a really good man, its good you have those memories and you can keep hold of them.

acWhy do you use the term "Apostate"?
by Trojan ini see that several of you use the term "apostate" or call themselves "apostates".
the problem i have with using the term is that you continue to follow wtbts thinking of "branding and labeling" people.
they charge that word with lots of negativity and label people that have different thoughts.
-

i stood corrected here when i was getting upset about being labeled an apostate. It means you have a different view, you left a former religion or whatever you were in. It doesn't mean evil, foolish, nieve...

How will it be after the WTBTS will have fallen ?
by Genesis ini sometimes imagine that the wt is destroyed (mental masturbation yeah) and all the people left without hope, sanity and joy.
this will be terrible in itself, if the wt falls suddently i fear a mass suicide.i recall myself thinking that id would rather die that not be in "the truth".
it will be a terrible shock for everybody.

IF and when it does, it will be like a building falling. Survivors escape with no injuries, survivors with horrific scars and people who are beyond help that will not survive.
