Back in the '70s, I was hoping for:
1) pre-marital sex
2) long hair and beards
3) no field service requirement
4) only one meeting a week
Teenagers in current captivity are probably still hoping for the same things.
I finally got them all by leaving. But now I have to accept the fact that I'll be destroyed at the big A.

The New Covenant Discussion
by Listener ini left the org many years ago as a teenager.
i started looking more closely at their doctrines a few months ago to work out if they really have the truth.
when i cam across the notion that jesus is not mediator for everyone i was startled and have been looking at the issue a lot more closely.

People suck and because of that suckage, they fuck up everything they do because, at their core, people suck.
God knows this and loves us anyways.
NO, (most) people are fucked up because other people convince them that they suck based on some fucked up ancient scriblings of wayward bronze-age goat herders. "No worries, Jesus came to unfuck you. Here, read all about it."
Give me a fucking break.

When I used to carry the mic, I'd sometimes slightly stroke the pole, just to see if anyone was paying attention. Nada.

As for the current Governing Body members, they are "fakes."
by possible-san inwell, .... although i have stated in this forum several times, and probably also other people stated about it, i would like to say again now.. as for the current governing body members, they are the "fake anointed.".
http://corior.blogspot.com/2006/02/notes-on-governing-body-of-jehovahs.html.
the greatest tragedy of today's jehovah's witnesses is that fakes/liars are guiding the organization.. people who have served jehovah for years should remember the "basic doctrine.".

Would someone please show me from the Bible how this 1935 date was ever arrived at?
Millions of witnesses used to know the anwer to this question -- but now they are all dead. Pity.

Why does the God of the Bible command us to love him?
by sabastious inmark 12: 28-31 - 28 one of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating.
noticing that jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, of all the commandments, which is the most important?.
29 the most important one, answered jesus, is this: hear, o israel: the lord our god, the lord is one.30 love the lord your god with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.31 the second is this: love your neighbor as yourself.

She said love, love, love is everything
I said ok, I guess, whatever
She said what does that mean
I said nothin, it's just good to have a backup plan
She said I guess that means you don't got love
I said maybe I love everyone
She said that's the same as lovin no one
I said ok, I guess, whatever-- Dan Bern, New American Language

How can they say that every human DESERVES to die
by jambon1 inreligion generally sickens me.
for various reasons.
perhaps in my own case it is just because of my bad experiences.. however, in my own moments of deep thought i cannot help but realise how absolutely insane some of the teachings are.. how can jw's (and other religions) say that every human deserves to die.

The only sensible thing JFR ever said, "Religion is a snare and a racket." Of course, he was an expert on snare and rackets.

Yeah, I once saw that photo of him wearing the red shirt and the red tie, and thought to myself, "That's the guy I was taking life-lessons from for so many years?"

God bless that cute little sister who taught me how to French kiss, lo those many years ago!
As was stated above, the real tragedy was in letting so many good ones (meaning NON-JW girls I met along the way) get away simply because I was a dub and they weren't.
'Tis a pity there is no god to curse.

Strange, Offensive , Weird Statements on DFing Offenses in Elders Manual
by flipper inyou really can't make this stuff up.
but an organization like the wt society bent on controlling virtually every aspect of the typical jehovah's witness life - would make this up to keep their control through the use of fear and guilt.
so- i thought i'd share what i thought was the strangest, most offensive, weird language dealing with what the wt society calls " disfellowshipping offenses " .

Note for alert readers: NOTHING that Freddie Franz ever wrote in his over 70 years at Brooklyn is in print now.
WOW. That is amazing when you think about it. I guess the same is true for Russell and Rutherford?
