Well Amac, if you hate it that f.i. Disengaged or Outlaw throw 'empty' insults at you why throwing them back?
Dont you know the proverb: " Do unto others as you would they should do unto you"?
one thing that the witnesses promote is how they are different from the rest of the world.
in your personal experience , did you find that you could trust a witness more than you could a non-jw?

Talking about empty insults Amac, wasnt it you who recently wrote: OUTLAW -
You miserable, big booger Disengaged -
My point exactly. Don't try to come to a conclusion based on your limited experiences. Realize that there is a little more to the world and to people than your narrow view.Europe- It only takes half an education So the pot calls the kettle black!!!!!
So I should think for myself and agree with the others on this thread, kind of like youBTW: perhaps you dont know it , but it is possible to think for yourself and meanwhile agree with the others on this thread, it's called, SHARING the same opinion!!!!!!

Amac:
Dia -Exactly what am I in denial of?
Try to think for yourself once, then you might find out!!!
i've heard different "apostates" say that witnesses are so brainwashed that they would kill, if ordered by the faithful slave.
do you believe this?
One way to ensure that I bring up PACIFISM again is to say "DON'T bring it up again."PACIFSM PACIFSM PACIFSM PACIFSM PACIFSM PACIFSM PACIFSM PACIFSM PACIFSM
You'd better get the other half of your education Amac, it's clear you only went to Kindergarten!!!
guess what?
shunning isnt just a dub problem, it goes on out in the" world "too.
its used as a weapon to punish and hurt people.
R F:
Have you gone over to the saner of the two ladies and had a talk to see what the problem may be? You could let her know how disturbing it is to you that the kids are starting to act out.I was just thinking the same!! And if this lady indeed turns out to be a schizo then you can at least explain to your son that it is no good in going over there any longer as the shunning will happen again and that you dont want him to get hurt by that!

BTW Amac.........Again, they have 100 years of being a pacifist organization
How pacifistic is it to mentally kill (=shunning) your own child/mother/father/etc. when they're finally fed up being brainwashed and fooled by the WTS and consequently step out of that cult?

Oh yeah that's right, and holding shares of a company who does business with the army and subsequent contributes to warfare technology doesnt mean anything, does it?? LOL
and have the majority of followers go along with it is ridiculous.
The followers go along with everything, didnt you know???
Then that doesn't say much for the people on this thread.
Doesnt it?
A little lesson in life Europe, be careful not to accept ideas just because most of the people surrounding you accept it. It's called mob mentality.
I dont accept ideas Amac. I'm not a J.W., so.... I can think for myself thank you very much! BTW: it's not called mob mentality, it's called cult behaviour!!!
It was just a remark to stress out that I'm not the only one with that opinion!! Any one with half an education would have understood that!
BTW: I had enough lessons in life, dont need yours, thanx a lot, but no thanx!

Last week an ex Dub told me that there is a lot of dishonesty among J.W.!
His father (an elder) told him that he was surprised (duh!!!) that the figures from Awake magazines distributed by the congregation to their members did NOT match the distribution numbers reported by their members on their monthly reports!!!!! So...all those 'honest' J.W.'s had handed out FAR more magazines than their congregations had supplied them with???????? LOL

JWs are pacifists. As a whole, they are opposed to violence or war on their own part to resolve any disputes. That would be pacifism.
As a whole they are TOLD to be opposed to violence, that's a difference you know!
Cause when Mother WTS tells them to kill as many apostates as they can, they will do it, as most people agree on this thread, nothing pacifistic about that!

To try and peg the entire group and how honest they are is ridiculous.
No it is not Amac, and you know why???
Because J.W.'s ALWAYS present themselves as a group! There is no individuality whatsoever!
When I talk with one J.W. he/she is always replying with WE this and WE that...or my brothers and sisters etc. so no wonder people will try and peg the " entire" group!!
