  Back from Germany...

  by Toronto_Guy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  on thursday i got back from germany, after having spent a week...was only planning to attend 2 world cup games, but ended up getting to 5 (bought some tickets outside the stadiums!

  )...its a very cool country, lots of history, travelled to hamburg, frankfurt, cologne, nuremburg, berlin and leipzig...of course the atmosphere is amazing right now with the world cup, fans from all over the world.... the only drawback was passing a kingdom hall in hamburg...something like "jehovah zugen"...lol...but i bought a big canadian flag and wore it around, even though canada is not in the world cup!

  it was nice to be able to do that, something i could never have done before as a jw...also got a bit drunk one night, that was fun too...its not always easy to have lost family, but its amazing to have the freedom to do things i never could before.... nice to be back and reading everyone's posts again..

  Great Educational Tool for those studying or thinking of studying with JWS

  by sf in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i was doing some web surfing and catching up on my reading and came upon a post i hope may help some lurkers and seekers understand better what they are getting themselves into or may have already gotten into, by studying the bible with jws.. i surely hope it is not going against any rule to copy/paste this.

  i will not include anything but the text.

  i will say though that it is from a longstanding exjw support board that can be found here:.

  0-16. My Story.

  by serotonin_wraith in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i was raised from the womb until the age of 16 as a jw, i was never really a part of it.

  i never got baptized, by the end i hated everything about it.

  the worst part was not being able to voice any opinions i had on the religion, not unless i wanted them to fall on deaf ears and be considered immoral.

  Finally out of Hiding

  by Shador in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  well i finally came out and told my parents i did not believe in the wts doctrines.. for me the last straw was seeing honesty's simple clear proof of the wrongness of 607.

  'course i couldn't remember all the refs last night but now i've printed them out.. told them about the ngo thing.

  of course they said the "ebul 'postates" were twisting the whole thing.. my dad tried to "reason with me" thusly:.

  Actual Number of the anointed remaining

  by core in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  heard from a sister that a visitor to their cong (from usa) mentioned in passing that at the top at brooklyn they did not think that the reported number of anointed still alive was accurate, rather they believe that only a couple of hundred remain.

  they apparently believe this points to the end soon (again) - also if it is true they are not proclaiming it (obviously because the time limit it imposes will be exposed as another failed date).

  odd if that is the case as they keep on finding gb members who are not actually very old

  Comments You Will Not Hear at the 6-25-06 WT Study (Survival)

  2. bible

  who do the sons and daughter-in-laws represent (did they have children before the flood)?.

  what does the ark represent?.

  (2 peter 2:5) the true god gave righteous noah explicit instructions on how to build an ark for the preservation of life through a global flood.

  world cup fever has taken hold and my family downunder is transformed.

  no longer divided and depressed.

  no longer oppressed - by forces real or imagined.. no, this family is united in joy, exuberance and exhilaration.
