  Do Some JW Elders Secretly Consider It Possible That They Are Wrong?

  by West70 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i recently heard this "experience" from a now "christian" former jw, which has not previously been publicly communicated.

  this jw then moved back to their home area (no jw relatives), and simply continued living their already-in-progress non-jw life.

  inevitably, this exjw christian started bumping into their jw former associates.

  The WTS crumbles.... what happens afterward?

  by Nosferatu in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so picture this.... the wts gets sued into oblivion.

  many successfully sued because of child abuse, blood transfusion, and workers comp issues.

  the wts is no more.. hence, there are no more new publications.

  Actually this is a good question and I'd like to see an Elder or former Elder answer it to hear their views. I expect that Elders will take control of individual halls and Co's will direct these Elders. Or they will until they realise there's no money in it. Sooner or later someone will start up another publishing company to fill the void but it'll be nothing like the GB. The Halls will become like local evangelical churches

  meeting survival guide games we play

  one doesn't grow up religiously attending '5 meetings a week' without developing a strategy for survival.

  mine started at about ten years of age and gradually grew more sophisticated as the years assemblies rolled by.

  Eventually Susan broke down and the only hope I saw was in just packing up the car and driving interstate for a new start.

  So one day, with no goodbyes, we left Adelaide. 22 hours drive across the desert and the four of us arrived in Sydney

  Aw mate you ran out, wheres yer ANZAC spirit, True Blue Aussies dont run, they just blow up their kingdom halls !!!

  So one day, with no goodbyes,& we left Adelaide. 22 hours drive across the desert and the four of us arrived in Sydney, tired, alone and with little more than the clothes on our backs. All worked out well

  Why'd you leave out that bit you told me in a pm about how you arrived in yer banged up ute and there were 1000's of people lining the streets of Sydney waving flags and blowing whistles at you, Some nice women on motorbikes rode past you with their tits out and the blokes kept whistling at you and asking to see yer buns. You thought Everyone was really, really friendly, so you stayed. It was only a few months later that someone handed you an old newspaper with an article about how some banged up old Ute with a sheep in the back had gate crashed Mardi gras

  Apostate in the "Daniel" book? (research help)

  by slimboyfat in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in the section for tonight's study there is the famous picture of the watchtower officials sent to jail.

  among them is g h fisher.

  isn't he the one who turned apostate in the late 20s or 30s and was very bitter against rutherford - or am i mixing him up with someone else?

  Wooo sounds like you have been doing "INTERNET BASED RESEARCH"

  If you start sounding to clever the elders might start asking you questions about your internet use, so be careful.

  Hmmmmm...

  I used to be a victim of those Bible based beatings. I was once at the ministry school and I'd had my leg slapped when the sister behind leaned forward and said to my mum, "Hit him on the head with the bible" And she did!

  It used to really make my blood boil when I saw small ones being beaten at meetings and even today it still gets my back up.

  A couple of weeks ago I was walking through the park when I saw a french bloke out with his little boy of about 5. The kid was really playing up. The man had the kids hand and was shouting at him, then he pulled the kids arm up held him out at arms length and REALLY kicked this kid in the arse. I was horrified, I went up to the bloke and said "Oi how would you like me to do that you you?" With me being a big bloke frenchie slopped off but I'd have loved to have given him a bruised arse like he gave that kid.

  sorry, but what does "Head for the mountains" mean in this context?

  It just means "Go away" "Get lost"

  An Apostate Myth

  by nicolaou in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  having read both of ray franz' books and more recently 'the gentile times reconsidered' by c. o jonsson you'd be forgiven for believing that losing the 607 b.c.e date for the destruction of jerusalem would end in disaster for the society.

  sorry but i just don't think so.. i'm sure many of the long-time witnesses who know the history of the society would truly have problems but most of the dubs just don't care!

  think about it, remember all those dubs you used to hang out with.

  they would feel pressure to apologize to certain ones about disfellowshiping them over this subject.

  They wouldn't apologize, in their arrogance they would accuse those who were disfellowshipped of running ahead of the organisation and of being independently minded.

  I don't think the org has ever apologised about anything.
