  "Take my silver and my gold,

  Nothing, Lord, would I withhold." - My Prayer of Dedication

  " ' The silver is mine, and the gold is mine' declares Jehovah of armies." - Haggai 2:8 NWT Revised

  According to the Bible, Jehovah seems to have plenty of silver and gold already! Why on earth are the money grubbing Governing Body (tm) so fixated on MONEY and material things. It reminds me of the old saying, 'God made man in his image and then man returned the favor.' It seems that sex and money are always on the minds of the Governing Body (tm) members and then they project their own viewpoint toward these subjects onto their 'God Jehovah' and his 'so-called' commands regarding these things.

  would i?

  i wouldn't mind if he slept through eternity (he sleeps most of the time anyway).

  i'd just like to be able to move him around occasionally.

  Singing

  despite not wanting to be a jw anymore and not being at meetings for a few months, still have k. songs coming into my head- both from old and new song books - usually whilst working.

  anyone else?

  how does it make you feel?.

  In the modern vernacular you are experiencing what is known as an 'earworm' or 'stuck song syndrome.'

  Hello

  by UnshackleTheChains in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i decided to join this forum as have been lurking awhile.

  there are lots of interesting topics on here that appeal to me.. i have been a witness for almost 3 decades and am very disillusioned with the organisation at this time.

  i am beginning to see it in a new light as i am getting older.

  Welcome to the 'forum'. You will find much good information here and the 'give and take' can be very stimulating and eye opening. I wish you all the best!

  the new understanding

  by heathen in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  hi guys , i know i was never a favorite here and haven't posted in awhile ... question .

  what do you think of the new understanding of , " this generation " they seem to go in circles on this one big time , once 1914 generation was almost gone they said they didn't know what it meant and now in the new publication the generation includes the second generation after 1914 .... i agree they don't know what they are talking about and this is just another control move .

  any comments ?.

  Counting time

  by Emma in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i may not have put this in the correct spot, but i do think it's scandalous the way time gets counted now.

  i've seen a cart at the edge of our farmer's market, never anyone close enough to talk.

  yesterday was a drizzly day and there were two carts set up, covered in plastic, "witnessing" on their own.

  According to one JW there can only be 1 of 3 reasons why you left.

  by Bonsai in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i asked an old jw friend of mine why so many baptized individuals leave the jw religion.

  "did it ever occur to you, old friend, that maybe they know something that you don't know and have valid reasons for leaving?

  ", i asked.. his response set me back for an answer.

  "What category do you fall under?" - Bonsai

  NONE OF THE ABOVE!

  Those three 'reasons' are ignorant pigeon-holing and labeling from an ill informed, self-righteous, mind controlled, God deluded religious zealot.
