Have heard numerous comments like these and they are sickening. One elder told me that when the big A kicks off, he 'wants to see the wicked die'. Like, he wanted to watch it happening. Do they not realise that it makes them look like a right bunch of mentalist fannies? "Out of the hearts abundance, the mouth speaks".

I would prefer my children to die than to have them Df'd
by lilyflor ini was still in the "troof" a couple of years ago when my mom said that to my face, in front of my husband no less.. he was a jw as well, he couldn't believe it.
my reply was "well i will give my life to save my children and if god sees fit to punish me for that - that's his choice".
lily.

Jehovah allowed 140,000 dead in Burma will they understand it was needed??
by Witness 007 inyes the tsunami killed 250,000 and now afew years later approx.
140,000 dead in burma....will people understand that this was all needed to prove we needed jehovah's rule in our lives?
he allowed this to prove a point.....not to mention the ethnic cleansing in burma which killed just as many.

The tsunami was something which finally confirmed to me that I didn't believe in god. The ensuing stories and TV pictures just made me so sad & it somehow reaffirmed that I could not be close to a god who allows this kind of misery for ANY reason. A kind & loving father does not sit back and watch as his children suffer. I act when I feel my kids are in danger - immediately! I do ANYTHING to stop bad things happening to them. 'God' doesn't. Comparing god to a loving, caring father is an insult to all good parents.

Not Happy
by SWM inthis morning i saw a couple of jehova's witnesses strolling through the neighbourhood.
the wise-ass in me decided to stick a note on the door saying: "i am not interested in your false god.
keep on walking.

What's the dumbest thing you've ever heard a JW say?
by Renegade inalot of you maybe stuck for choice so you can say as many as you want.

Where do you start? One of the best was this; "The brothers, not the organisation, got over excited about 1975. And, after all, the society did apologise later on, for any part they played in heightening expectation". I think I remember reading the 'apology'. It was more of an accusation than an apology.

If you could get back the time spent in WT what would you do differently?
by Thechickennest inis it too late to start over and pursue your dreams?
where would you likely be in life if it wasn't for the time spent being one of jehovah's witnesses?
was there anything salvagable from the your former life in the jw cult?.

Many things. I often think about how I willingly bent over & took it up the pipe from such horrible, demanding, self-seeking morons. I would love to go back & say a thing or two differently on a number of incidents that occurred.

Something Else I Was Thinking About...
by str8?so is spaghetti..until you heat it up insometimes i look back at my 27 years as a witness and am astounded by the amount of double speak that goes on in the organisation.
god loves unconditionally, but only certain ones, god is going to save the world from its downward spiral, but first of all he is going to destroy millions of evil people.
it is all so fatalistic and unkind.

I'm sorry you went through this. Bad, offensive, vile & rude! Any time that I see one of the elders on my travels, I thank fark that I am not subject to this sort of crazy stuff any more. To think that I ran around trying to avoid them all when I 1st left the org.

Welcome! I know a few active JW's who are gay. They don't seem the most happy people. In fact, they have been the cause of a lot of trouble in their congregations. Mental illness/severe depression has been a trend for them. The suppression of their natural desires has taken its toll over a period of many years. Shame. Enjoy your life. PS - Some of your comments were nicely put. Very true.

The one thing that disturbs me the most about JWs. Why can't they see it?
by MinisterAmos inever since day one of our jw experience, we have all been prayed to by the bro on-stage at least twice per meeting.
have any of you ever really listened to what they are asking from god?
at the start of my association the prayers were pretty generic, but now *every* one asks that god only provide for other witnesses.

They believe that we deserve to die. And a horrible death as well. Dishonoured with no burial. Our corpses eaten by wild animals. Why should they give a fark about praying for the rest of humanity when they have this hideous view of people.
