why I like this site

by nancy drew in

i like this site (aside from the fact that we have the jw experience in common) because i have come to realize that all of you are very creative, interesting & courageous.

it takes a special person to exit the jw's.

we all of course are also very different & thats good because we can learn from each other.

Has the WTS removed the 'offending' publications? Or just retired them due to time?

by AK - Jeff in

i seem to recall the earlier versions of watchtower cd-rom containing books from the 50's and 60's [life everlasting in the freedom of the son's of god - babylon the great has fallen - etc].

i have no cd predating 2001 now in my possession - and looked at that one today doing research, finding that virtually nothing pre-1970 is there [except the revised/altered 'truth' book].. is my memory faulty on this?

could it be that they just 'retired' the older pubs innocently?

'Watchtower 1997 CD-ROM' is here:

What's the process of confessing to Elders?

by JerkhovahsWitless in

jw
friends

my friend and his girlfriend will be meeting with their elders this coming week to confess the lengthy amount of time they've been committing "pornea".

so far the elders know that he wants to meet with them and he wants to setup a time.

he hasn't told them what for though.. he was asking me what the process will be like.

fokyc

Never ever confess anything to elders. It all sounds so nice and spiritual to confess.

I await with interest the result!

Adults with imaginary friends are stupid.

by alice.in.wonderland in

here on jehovahs-witness.net i have come across theists, atheists and those that are agnostic that all claim to be friends because they're ex-witnesses like it is all that is needed for religious unity.. .

why isn't this on the ad?.

because every atheist i've talked to believes jehovah's witnesses are just another organization of stupid adults with imaginary friends, just a splinter of mainstream christianity a lot like the branch davidians.

Just who is this Alice.in.Wonderland?

Only asking!

Jesus wants you off of the internet and to stop reasoning - w 9/15/2010 pg. 27

by wannabefree in

watchtower 9/16/2010 pg.

27 paragraph 9 .

"i am he who searches the kidneys and hearts, and i will give to you individually according to your deeds.

fokyc

I wondered why the CoBoE in my wife's congo wrote to the branch about me!

Amongst other very derogatory items he said,

"Brother fokyc spends a great deal of time doing research on the internet",

How he knows what I do or don't do is another question for the GB perhaps!

Maybe Jesus told him?

How long did the Watchtower Society's campaign against aluminium last?

by slimboyfat in

jw
friends

i came across a discussion of the golden age magazine's anti-aluminum stance in a book on the history of reaction to government policy on fluoride:.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/fluoride-wars-americas-political-melodrama/dp/0470448334/ref=sr_1_64?ie=utf8&s=books&qid=1276764067&sr=1-64.

use the "search inside" feature to find the discussion of the golden age on pages 131 and 132.. among other things it says: "unbelievably, the golden age published over 130 articles railing against aluminium cookware between 1925 and 1969".. did the society continue to publish articles against aluminum as late as 1969?

fokyc

This seems to be the last mention of Aluminium:

*** g87 7/22 p. 29 Watching the World ***

Aluminum Alert

"A leading group of British scientists is warning against using aluminium saucepans and aluminium-rich foods," says The Sunday Times of London. ‘Scientists from the Medical Research Council’s neuroendocrinology unit in Newcastle upon Tyne believe aluminium contamination of food and water is a possible cause of Alzheimer’s disease, the most common form of senile dementia.’ Although it was previously thought that the amount of aluminum absorbed from cooking pots was negligible, recent research showed a dramatic increase in aluminum release due to a chemical reaction when fluoride was present in cooking water or when cooking acidic foods such as tomatoes or cabbage.
