  My 8 year old daughter tells me she is an atheist...???

  by sosoconfused in

  so since we have not been to a meeting in 6 months or so, i decided to ask my daughter (on the way home from cheerleading practice - yeah i can't believe i am letting her engage in such a worldly activity lol) if she misses going to the kingdom hall.

  she says sometimes because she can't see her friend - but she has made new friends so it doesn't bother her too much.

  so i ask her, "well, what about learning about jehovah?

  Do you think "Blondie" is addicted to reading Watchtowers and Awakes?

  i remember when i was a "devout" jws i could not wait to get the new watchtowers and awakes from the wednesday nite theocratic ministry school.

  i would actually salivate thinking of the new information jehovah had in the magazines for us.

  i was "franatical" and i would go home still in my three piece suit and devour the magazines that very nite.

  This thread is totally unneeded. How many people, including myself when I was lurking, benefit from her breakdown of the articles? I know you don't mean any disrespect, but to criticize one of the most respected and well researched posters on here just seems in poor taste.

  the drama continues, i log on to facebook this morning and notice that i have about 20 some odd personal messages from people calling me an apostate to they will return to me when i return to jehovah.. all of this based upon my brother informing others that i have "apostate thoughts".

  my mother also encourage long-time famil friends to "unfriend" me because i have taken my stand on the side of satan... wow.

  don't you just love this international brotherhood.

  Do yourself a favor and delete EVERY JW on your "friends" list. Block them your life will be better. Lock your facebook privacy settings down.

  Did my bit for our cause today!

  2. friends

  we went to a second hand book fair with literally 100 000+ books and i found some bible teach books in the religion section.

  of course very few people go to the religion section, but anyway i got out my pen and wrote jwfacts.com on the title pages.

  it's small, but it could just save someone..

  Hearing things like that make me ponder the whole "JWs were an Illuminati inspired cult".

  Gerrit Loesch was at our DC today!

  2. beliefs

  so, unexpectedly, the final talk was announced today and to my surprise and evil glee, they announced gerrit loesch as the speaker!

  first off, at the beginning of his talk, he interrupted himself in the middle of his sentence to scold the microphone brother to lower my mike it's right in my face.. anyway, it was the talk on inspired truth, vs. inspired falsehoods.

  he went through 6 expressions inspired by the demons.

  a change the society is going to make on Thursday night meetings, can someone confirm this for me?

  by Truth and Justice in

  my mother gets a call from a dear friend in the midwest.

  and this friend begins to tell my mom that her kids who attend congregations in california were told that there "thursday night meeting" or the "theocratic ministry school" is being somewhat cancelled, and that it will be considered "family night".

  this would start sometime in the next couple of months.. the reason for this change is to entice the younger generation, because there is a dramatic decrease in attendence at the meetings, and that this in some way would help them to have more interest.. what are your thoughts?

  Idk..... We all were naysayers when we first heard that they were ending the book study.... I won't believe anything until we get some real confirmation.

  Manditory Security Clearence and Identification Badge For Any Door to Door Canvassers Religous or Commercial

  by frankiespeakin in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  people going door to door uninvited should be required to get a licence and sercurity check if they are going door to door and required to show it on demand while engaged in the door to door work.. after all it is a perfect stranger for the most part who could be an imposter or maybe even a violent criminal or rapist.

  no one convicted of sexual molestation or violent crimes should be given a permit.

  an added benifit would be less people knocking on your door trying to sell you something be it a vaacum cleaner or armegeddon life insurance protection.. what is your opinon?.

  2013 Drama: "Show Yourself Attentive"

  by breakfast of champions in

  1. watchtower

  this is the first of three "dramas" this dc, and i have to say, it was one of the weirdest dramas ever.

  i won't go through all the details.

  maybe someone else wants to throw in their 2c.. it starts out with two men standing on the "beach" talking, but it took me awhile to figure out what in the hell was going on.
