The Beast & the Harlot by Avenged Sevenfold. The real purpose of the bible is to supply awesome lyrics for metal songs...
The funny thing is that this song would freak the hell out of most JWs even though the lyrics sound just like the Rev Climax book. It should be a kingdom melody...
AVENGED SEVENFOLD
"Beast And The Harlot"
This shining city built of gold, a far cry from innocence,
There's more than meets the eye round here, look to the waters of the deep.
A city of evil.
There sat a seven-headed beast, ten horns raised from his head.
Symbolic woman sits on his throne, but hatred strips her and leaves her naked.
The Beast and the Harlot.
She's a dwelling place for demons.
She's a cage for every unclean spirit,
every filthy bird and makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.
The city dressed in jewels and gold, fine linen, myrrh and pearls.
Her plagues will come all at once as her mourners watch her burn.
Destroyed in an hour.
Merchants and captains of the world, sailors, navigators too.
Will weep and morn this loss with her sins piled to the sky,
The Beast and the Harlot.
She's a dwelling place for demons.
She's a cage for every unclean spirit,
every filthy bird and makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.
The day has come for all us sinners.
If you're not a servant, you'll be struck to the ground.
Flee the burning, greedy city.
Lookin' back on her to see there's nothing around.
I don't believe in fairytales and no one wants to go to hell.
We've made the wrong decision and it's easy to see.
Now if you wanna serve above or be a king below with us,
You're welcome to the city where your future is set forever.
She's a dwelling place for demons.
She's a cage for every unclean spirit,
every filthy bird and makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great. -

I think I'm going crazy
by weary inthis is the first time i've been here.
i feel very guilty.
my whole life i've felt guilty.

Welcome to the board weary. I sympathize with your situation.
If you think you're a fake, check me out! Im a full out double agent!
Some hypocrisy is inevitable while you're seeking the truth about this religion. You want to really think about what you're doing with your life and not be rash, right!
Im an active witness, so we probably have allot in common, PM me if you wanna chat. -

Still Groggy: Double Agent's Blog #002 - "Stocking up for the 'winter'"
by StillGroggy in(taken from my blog) .
so someone on www.jehovahs-witness.com discussion board told me to expand my support group beyond jws so that my world won't fall apart when i leave.
this is probably the best advice anyone has ever given me, so i'm taking it.

OntheWayOut,
Good advice. Trust me, I've already thought about this. There won't be any secret meetings, just some email leading up to a "Hey, what do you think of the org" and "Hey, I'm getting announced this tuesday" Besides, we're still in the same social circle, so I can keep casual contact with her without a problem.
As for the DFed friend, that one's super risky so I won't be trying that until I'm DFed myself. -

Actually, it's a bit easier for me than others since most of my family is not in the religion. So I will make sure to get closer to that family before the axe drops.
Before that, though, I'm getting in closer with some of my "bad association, independent thinker" old-friends in JW who I think might not shun me (at least secretely) when the big DF/DA comes. These are people that know me, and love me, true friends. Not fellow JWs who are just looking for "association", people who's concern for me goes beyond the JW rulebook. These are also people who I have history with.
So right now there are 4 of them.
1) My "R-rated movie watchin" best friend
2) My DFed female friend
3) My "super worldly" friend who's dating a non-witness
4) My other "super worldly" female friend I lost touch with
Aside from the first person, the rest on the list have been/will be a challenge to reestablish friendship with without blowing cover. After all, they're either DFed or "marked" bad associates. (For those who don't know, people who march to the beat of their own drum in JW are "marked" as bad association, and shunned, although to a lesser extent as disfellowshipped people)
1) I've been trying to through little things at my R-rated movie watchin best friend like about myspace for example. I said "You know, I think they just like to demonize anything that's popular" he agreed. I took that as a good sign.
2) I searched, emailed, text messaged my DFed female friend to no avail. I think even if she heard from me, she'd shun ME and has probably written me off. Im gonna have to leave her for last, pay for one of those find a person things on the internet, and leave a letter in her door. All this most likely after my exit
3) I've had a hard time tracking down my super worldly dating a non-witness friend, but I'm not alarmed yet. I'll keep calling and leaving messages, maybe an email telling him that "I Don't Care and I Don't Judge"
I expect he's taking A LOT of heat for this and might be shunning JWs ahead of time to avoid being harrassed about it
4) My super-worldy female friend I lost touch with. I was able to get through to her after about a month through email and txt messages. I think she felt snubbed by me since I ignored her a bit since I got married. We were sortoff an item at one point and well, you know. None of this matters anymore to me. What matters is that she's known me for 6 years and is quite possibly a double agent herself. She's definitely one of the "bad" witnesses. An eccentric, independent thinker.
These people are gonna be my lifeblood when the ship goes down. Thank GOD for my family being there too. they'll understand but do to my JW "stay away during holiday time" I'm not so close to them. (really sad)
So Im stocking up friendship for the winter of my exiting the WT. Wish me the best... -

Did You Ever Get Done In By Hearsay???
by minimus inwere you ever talked to by elders or charged with something because of hearsay??
?

StillGroggy
oh yeah... A buddy of mine was in a judicial commitee and he decided to imply something about my fiance and I's courtship. So when Me and my fiance arrive at our new congregation we're greeted with a meeting with the elders. I was furious and demanded to know what exactly he said (Which of course they won't tell you, you can't fight what you can't see). We challenged it and they went back to my "buddy" who recanted.
However, in the 6 months of back and forth "red-tape" we were treated like crap by the elders and I couldn't have any privileges, and they didn't let us have our wedding in the KH. (a big shame for dubs)
Evidently my witness buddy was looking up my video rentals at his job at blockbuster too, cuz they threw that at me too. I guess somebody was offended by my pg-13s.
This religion is bullshit.
Looking back I would've been better off if I got DFed. I probably would've been dissillusioned and been on here with yall instead of "waiting on jehoopla"
