  Do you trust a JW when it comes to $$$$?

  well i thought there was one thing i could count on with my ex jw wife and that was she would not go back on her word.

  to make a long story short, after we were separated and i signed off on the marriage, my ex gave me her word that she would not go after my pension.

  well a few years later guess what?

  NO, definitely NOT, it doesn't make any difference whether it's £££ or $$$$

  JW's are just humans with all the same traits when it comes to honesty!

  Were you ever embarrassed or somewhat ashamed when the WT patted themselves on the back in their own articles?

  i was browsing through the december 2010 awake, and noticed an article on the earthquake that happened in haiti earlier this year.

  it didn't take long for the article to disturb me.

  the third paragraph initiated the sanctimonious tone that is present througout the article.

  It seemed good to start with in 1952; BUT now I just want to throw up.

  The mags are bad, but when they do it from the platform; ugh!

  In a VERY famous UK case a few years ago, when the Elders contacted the police;

  they said, and I quote from a witness statement,

  "She is not a real Jehovah's Witness as she only comes now and then, she doesn't often put in a report".

  As it turned out she had to be dis-fellowshipped when sentenced to a prison term;

  therefore she must have been a witness when the elders spoke with the police, so they lied to the police; didn't they?

  In fact she was a born in witness with both parents in the same cong. but just because there was something distasteful to the elders they said she wasn't one of them.

  IF they had been sensible they could so easily have dis-fellowshipped her BEFORE going to the police;

  then in all honesty they could have said, "She is not one of us".

  *Grace* According to JW's. Your thoughts will be appreciated.

  hi, i'm a bit of a lurker on this site occasionally, just to help me understand my jw relative.

  i am so curious to ask this question, but i fear asking a practicing jw, because you know, they can be a tad evasive, and maybe defensive too.

  lutherans say.

  were you shocked?.

  was it eye opening?.

  did you think these "apostates" were pretty much right?.

  I just couldn't believe I had found people in a similar situation to myself.

  All the doubts I had about JW's were confirmed the first day on here.

  i seem to have a bit of confusion concerning the purpose of this website and the people in it.

  perhaps i am not computer savvy and do not understand some of the expressions used.

  could someone comment and help clarify.. .

  as we all know, year after year the rank and file publishers in the jehovahs witness organization have been awaiting the grand announcement from the governing body the preaching work is done!.

  the elderly and the infirm are the underdogs in the struggle to accomplish the ministry.

  i was one among the large number of jehovahs witnesses who are sick, but prior commitment to this ministry shortened my hours of sleep considerably.
