"I hope by Jehovah's undeserved kindness you will remain much longer and become a permanent member of the Bethel family."- N.H. Knorr. All you Bethelites that are now being lovingly displaced must remember this lie that Jehovah's Loving Organization presented to you to get you to come slave at 'the big house' for free. What happened to Jehovah's undeserved kindness? I guess it is only invoked when it benefits the Organization.

I'm getting baptized
by BlackWolf ini know i've started similar topics before but this time i'm serious.
my parents have been constantly pressuring me and after yesterday's watchtower study they asked me if i was going to be baptized this summer... and i said yes.
i probably should have thought about it more before making a final decision, but they're pretty much forcing me to do it anyway.

Blackwolf..........................Magwitch has really laid it on the line for you in a kind and forthright manner. I would highly recommend that you watch a movie entitled: A PRICE ABOVE RUBIES. The story is about a young woman that grows up in an Orthodox Jewish community but realizes in her heart that it is not the life for her. You may have some trouble finding it because it was made in 1998 and had a limited release. I wish you all the best in your life journey. -

My brother died last night
by LisaRose ini found out this morning that my brother died last night, he was also an ex jw, 73 years old and died of heart disease and kidney failure.
it was not totally unexpected, as he had been in poor health, but it's a blow, especially as i just lost another brother two years ago.
there were six of us, now only four.

Welcome, Stella. The journey away from Jehovah's Witnesses is easy for some and most difficult for others. Be gentle and kind to your relatives and above all else be patient. Some will respond favorably and some will 'fight you to the bitter end.' Remember that in the final analysis each one of us 'must travel his own road.' Good luck to you and I wish you all the best! -

"I was going to say it is like a Twilight Zone episode." - Millie 210
Great catch Millie! The Twilight Zone aired an episode on September 29, 1961 entitled, THE SHELTER. However, as you have rightly observed, the Twilight Zone is far more creative and thought provoking than anything that the Governing Body(tm) could possibly produce.

Suffering and existence of God
by elbib inmany people find it difficult to reconcile suffering and existence of god.
it seems they feel that it is god’s obligation to shield humans from ill-effects of their short-sighted acts..
people’s hobby has something to do with this kind of reasoning!

Thank you, Cofty. I was searching for that website and couldn't find it.
