  Brace yourselves: The GOOD things about the WTBS! heh

  by theMadJW in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  yes-lotta nonsense; a self-proclaimed "slave class" that is not a prophet but like a prophet, giving so awfully embarrasing opinions that are supposed to be automatically acceted by all of us jws...pretenders...mistakes... and moves not "discreet" at all- like the ngo united nations membership they secretly had for awhile....terrible, isn't it?.

  i mean, look at the inspiring example we have in churchianity: such wonderful dogma- such as the three sadist-gods who have been torturing billions of men, women, and children for thousands of years- with eternity to go...and god making the universe in 72 hours...and backing the wars of their governments- "god and country!

  ", as they send their men out to war, telling them they will be blessed for it, and so many more wonderful revelations: the rapture, once-saved, tithing, etc.

  Why do they pass resolutions asking for money,KHAA,COAA,etc. Monthly donations to wbts(to cover to cost of the free mags),monthly donations to the KH fund,donations for special pioneers to DC(so they can come home to visit family),donations for KH repairs.Fill out forums of how much money you can give towards a new KH and they, not only want the family head to fill out the forum but the spouse to fill one.Than there is the DC hotel room scam.Did you hear all the begging for money at DC,by cash,by check,etc.The new car for CO.The free furnished suite at the KH for CO and it has to be remodelled after his stay for the new incoming one.

  Yeah it's all free to those who are B.W.

  About love and caring, some people have a vary narrow view of the world.It's like a person can't see the forest for the trees.

  To new Christians on JWN

  by brotherdan in

  i wanted to make a few comments to those of you that have recently begun to question or have already left the wt and made their way onto this site.

  this site is a great resource to learn how others are coping with leaving the organization and moving on into a fulfilling life.. i wanted to write this post because i think reading something like this would've been helpful to me to understand where a lot of people that comment on this site are coming from.

  you are going to hear from a wide range of people that have moved on to a diverse range of beliefs.

  I don't agree with all your comments.EX."They will claim that they are content and REAL contentment comes from knowing God" Who are you to judge wheather I am content or not?

  It always gets my goat when the wbts or someone says you CANNOT be happy unless you blah blah blah.

  How do you handle the wickedness going on today?

  by stillin9 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  we know in the jw realm, satan is believed to be the main cause of all the wickedness going on in our world today.

  after taking a quick look at news headlines, and seeing the crap going on around us, i personally don't find that so hard to believe.

  but i wanted to see how you guys handle the tragedies and wickedness going on around us?

  Very well thanks.If you took all the news,that is good news like all the new inventions,medicine,ipod,ipad,cell phones,internet.Or take if you reported all the airplane flights arriving safely.You would have a book 80 miles long compared to one foot of bad news.Just my thoughts.

  Thanks Blondie

  Enjoy your vacation.

  Your comments are right on,especially when you point out how the GB/FDS replace themselves for God.That is what they say is like coming from God himself.

  Also the Q about stress and unemployment today,what about stress and unemployment or not in the 1930.

  I abhor what the GB/WBTS says about people

  by bobld in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ex: a christian family,lives by bible principles,has high moral standards,has faith in god & jesus,are unselfish,honest,peaceable,kind,have a fine reputation in the community,volunteers & does charitable works,donates to the red cross(this is an org.

  that is 1st on site when disaster strikes with food,shelter and medical aid).. when one of this family member becomes an apostate and decides to become a member of the wbts as a jw.the gb tells the apostate that his family is evil and that he must not associate with them because that would be like partaking of "the table of demons".

  i abhor such hate speech.. b.

  Are we in danger WT sept 1,2010

  by bobld in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  page 11 quote 'humans,were not created with the ability to determine for themselves what is right and what is wrong'.

  so i say satan had to tell them what to do..right or wrong.. let me fill in bold some details on the 2nd qoute.

  'what a delusion to believe that the right to choose(select) between good(apples) and bad(rotten apples) means the right to determine(decide) what is good (apples) and what is bad(apples).. i believe these writers are a few bricks short of a full load.. b. .

  Also that same mags dealt with deception.Tell me, pray tell when I compare the revelation book 1988 hard copy with the WT CD2009 there are a number of decrepanices or deceptions.

  Undercover,you hit the nail right on the head.Active JW always saying I can't wait for the new system the end must be near.Only to see that they wasted their life and the end is not here.

  It reminds me of a person who sits on his ass doing nothing hoping for things to inprove.He only dreams of big houses,going places,going to restaurants,etc,etc,only to grow old and not enjoy life.SO sad.
