first, i cannot believe how dumbed-down and simplistic the writing is now.
we used to have study articles with substance.
the writing style now is for people with slow minds or at the level of junior high students with learning disabilities.
WT quote - "Next, the King turned his attention to his earthly subjects to refine, educate, and organize them to do God’s will."
Because obviously Jesus only can do one thing at a time.
"I have to do this first, and when I'm done, I wil do this..because I'm limited by the time/space" -Jesus, acording to the WT/FDS?GB
a jehovah's witness explains the watchtower society's 'this generation' doctrine..... .

what do you think about his explanation?.
That's WHY they don't want the R&F going to the university. They don't want the R&F putting their hands on a dictionary:
" the entire body of individuals born and living at about the same time."
"The term of years, roughly 30 among human beings, accepted as the average period between the birth of parents and the birth of their offspring."
rehashed format but same ole' shite.. hypocritical article on viewing "weak" ones compassionately usign the example of a single mum arriving late yet the may km has a whole article on how rude it is not to be punctual.. read it and weep....
Blah. Idiots at headquaters.
thought-stopping platitudes, like "we are in the last days!
"jehovah's witnesses are the only ones with the truth...".
what statements or claims did you use, or hear, that made you feel comforted by the fact that you were part of jehovah's organization?.
"Going to college is a sign that someone is 'spiritually weak'"
That's sick. BFC, congrats on your class.
When TWA 800 went down, did they have time to send a Mayday signal? Just asking.
It looks/feels like a movie.

Wow!

so i havent been to a meeting in some time and my wife decided we should go.
we showed up late, i was love bombed by an elder with a man-hug where i felt i was made a spectacle of.
moving on.
"why would Jehovah resurrect someone just to destroy them again?"
But this is exactly was gonna happen even according to GB/WT/FDS theology. You get a clean slate when you get resurrected, but if you don't do as they tell you in the new scrolls (yeah right, new), God will kill you. So, at the end, you get resurected to get killed again. Same idea. Jw's just dont think.
my mom begged me to find some wt.
(rag) literature that she had been looking for, for 2 days.
she had been praying to jehovah to find it and she figured he used me to quickly locate it..
Lol. When I was a kid and I would lost something like a toy, I would pray: "God, help me find this toy and I would serve you forever". Oh boy, I'm not kidding.
