  2. beliefs

  as i sit here, i am listening to the wav file of yesterdays sessions.

  ugh.

  first, there is the talk about the (usually dumbass, can't keep a job type) brother who decided to come to the convention instead of looking for work to feed his family.

  A SPIRIT OF REBELLION or PROPER ATTITUDE---WHICH?

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  there is a catch-22 that can trip you up at the local kingdom hall.

  if you receive "counsel" from an elder about any behavior at all and you "resist" or question the counsel you can be accused of having a "spirit of rebellion".

  so, you have to either shut up and comply (with even the most ludicrous and ill-founded suggestions) or answer back and be chastised and "marked".

  (1)how many of you out there, back when you were still a jw, heard the bros say "yeah the cong is a little cold cos of <insert scapegoat here>, but there is genuine love among the country congs/ the foreign lang congs etc??

  (2)how did you respond to that remark?

  did you accept that concession or did the absence of unpretentious love in your cong continue to bother you?

  Finally going to college...

  by Justice-One in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  even though "the end" is so close you could reach out and "touch it with your tonge" i'm going to get my degree.

  i have been inactive for more than ten years, but because of the wife i still go to church (i just can't call it "the hall" anymore, at least in my heart) on sundays from time to time.

  and guess what, when i mentioned that i was going to go to college, i was asked why i would want to do that?

  What are the most insincere things JWs say?

  by Spectrum in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it really makes me angry when they say i love jehovah.

  they don't know what they are talking about.

  if they read with an open mind the carry-ons of this cruel mesopotanian god they would feel ridiculous and embarrassed for putting this god before their family, their children.

  Annointed in history

  by moomanchu in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this has probably been brought up before,

  why isn't there a record of annointed ones through history?

  why weren't they preaching and teaching jehovah's kingdom and all that.

  by Sacchiel in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  hey everyone, i've been examining my faith and found it doesn't stand up to biblical theology.

  its going to be hard since a lot family and friends will very likely repudiate me.

  i have taken some steps to introduce topics to my family that will get them to analyze the wt teachings.
