  "Yes, some were a bit overzealous in their expectations regarding this date, which is commendable, but such expectations did not come to fruition."

  "Yes some have misinterpreted the prophecy. Simply hearing '9/12/2006 is the end of the world' is by no means basis for thinking the end of the world is 9/12/2006. Even if the prophecy is 'from god' it does not mean that His light doesn't get any brighter! 'Do not lean on your own understanding' comes to mind in this instance.

  The translation of the word OWN is incorrect in 'The world'. OUR translators (don't ask) have pointed out the word OWN is from the Hebrew word ANYONEINKLUDINGPROFITZ and also from the Greek word EVINIFITZGOD.

  So any intelligent person seeking the truth and not false prophesy sees that we were correct and you were mislead by the ruler of this system of things, Satan the Devil. Isn't it wonderful that God has chosen Us has His Earthly messenger? Do you not feel privileged to receive His food in due time?"

  Fell better?

  Wikipedia being abused by Jehovahs Witnesses

  by Simon in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i had a look at the wikipedia entry for jehovahs witnesses yesterday and noticed that it wasn't as comprehensive as it once was.. most links to non-pro-jw sites have gone as is anything truly critical or exposing of their beliefs and practices.. last night i added a link to this site to the "other sources" section.

  this morning it is gone.. i wonder whether this is some private zealot who has decided to do it or an organised campaign?.

  But it isn't really "sold," is it? It's free. As such, it is worth exactly what you paid for it. Or less.

  Yes, but "sold" was in quotations meaning the price you pay is trusting the info and visiting the site.

  I didn't know exactly how Wiki worked. To a person going on the net for info, does a Google search and Wiki has an answer or article on the subject, they'll see it as fact. So if you don't know than Wiki will be quoted to people as an online encyclopedia, and that's it. For a Witness to show this to a newcomer with questions, it would be damaging to them. They'd think--well, it's in the encyclopedia.

  This is very important. It is yet another "lure" they can use. Usually the net is a place to disprove them. If they have a place on the net that supports their ideas but looks not biased, they have GOLD.

  Wiki comes up a lot on searches. To a JW who's actually trying to question the org. it would put his/her mind at ease. When someone sees something they want to see, they sometimes look no further. The "real truth" could be the next link but they saw what they wanted to and that's stifling our efforts. You know that most of them are not real "savvy" when it comes to research outside of the publications, especially on the cpu.

  Someone out there may be looking for non biased info to help them in there decision and they are actually reading JW propaganda as absolute fact. It's a big deal.---IMO

  hey all, .

  i was raised as a jw, did what my parents who have been in it since there teens.

  got baptized at 15, pretty much my whole only child witness life was spent alone, i never had any close jw friends, because everyone in our congregation were so cliquey.anyways i stopped really attending meetings at age 19, when my best friend got df, i had already gotten privately reproved and i was upset and how they handled things with me, so i just told my mom i wasn't going to be a hyprocrit, and go to meetings and pretend to be happy, and agree with them... anyways long story short, i'm 23 now, and of course i got very depressed in 03, for about 6months, and just went through the mill, to be freaking around witnesses who i knew were fake drove me crazy, when u only ask how i am doing after not attending for months at a time, u are not my friend!.

  Picture on book "You can live forever"

  by Motema Bolingo in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i remember that a few months ago, a member gave the reproduction of a publicity corresponding exactly to the picture of a nice swimming girl appearing in the "you can live forever ..." book.. this image is on my website (the first one on the page) :.

  http://www.aggelia.be/subliminal4b.html.

  would it be possible to put again this publicity on the forum ?.

  Just for fun, I decided to pick up a National Geographic magazine off of my book shelf right now. Within just 2 minutes of glancing at various photos, I was able to pick out about 3 skulls, and 2 demonic faces. It wasn't hard at all. I challenge any of you reading this post to try it too, and count how many faces and skulls you can find within various pictures.

  I think a post showing these kind of pics (non JW mags or books) would shoot down all of these subliminal sites.

  Or maybe some would be saying Nat. Geo. is the devil too.

  You're lot is not as bad as you think. You can still research here and other places before taking that "plunge". A woman is not a reason to get baptized. Do you think THAT is what Jah wants, for someone to dedicate their life out of love for a woman and not for Him?

  Just remember YOU are not wrong.
