my last meeting will be in 2 weeks from Sunday. I'm moving away and I'll never attend another meeting ever again. The "truth" isn't true, Jehovah's Witnesses are basically Nazi's always saying how they are the chosen race and very hypocritical and judgemental. Most of their core teachings are either not based on the bible or based on a deluded interpretations of the bible. I'd love for a JW to show me how they got to the important years 1919 and 1935 from the bible. Pathetic.

Plus birth control is a "matter of conscience".
I don't think you have any idea what you are talking about. Certain forms of birth control are not allowed (such as the morning after pill) but it would be that way with any pro life group. The only thing that is a matter of conscience is a vasectomy or the equivalent on a girl (i have no idea what that is called)...

Part 3: The October Surprise!
by Amazing inpart 3: the october surprise!
jws were very eager about world events peace and security: the worldwide pronouncement of peace and security has been a prophetic mantra of the jw religion since before i became associated in 1968. and now, at long last, it was finally upon us!
true, 1975 had not brought armageddon, just as 1914 did not bring it either.

Hard To Keep Silent
by Frenchy inwas visiting this week and in his talk he got on the subject of movies.
he began by admitting that he was not familiar with the rating code but that it was wrong for a christian to see an r rated movie.
he stayed at least five minutes on the subject.. afterwards there was the usual, abbreviated wt study and i found paragraph four particularly interesting:.

I think it's silly to say R movies are wrong. The R rating in the US, can be a PG in Australia, and vice versa. For example, The Matrix was R rate in the US, but I think it was a PG in Australia. So a JW in Australia could watch it and not the once in the US?
that is exactly correct....when my family was on vacation in New Zealand, my pioneer mom and MS dad watched as many movies that were rated R in the US as possible, before they got home and could possibly offend someone. absolutely pathetic, even my 14 year old sister saw the hypocrisy in that.

need to resurrect this topic....some more questions....
do letters from a congregation have their own unique letterhead or the WTS letterhead? (don't want the form letter to raise suspicions)
are there any former service overseers here that post that can let me know more of what to expect?
anyone who is in the Seattle area, or even who has a WA mailing address who would be willing to have our publisher record cards forwarded to them and then would forward them to me, please email me at [email protected]
thanks for all of the replies...i'm moving in 3 weeks and i'm starting to get a little nervous about all of this.

i agree with mostly everything stated here, but i maintain that the elders are acting in accordance with their training from the WTS. so if anyone is to blame, its corporate headquarters in Brooklyn. now if an elder is a real d**k they may go against Watchtower laws. If I sinned on any level I would never ever tell the elders. I realized this after I spilled my guts after getting caught smoking pot at age 15. Here I am 10 years later and certain people in my old congregation think I'm bad news.
