i have a question for the ex-jw's on this forum after months of reading the forum..... many say how good it is to be free of the oppressiveness of the jw's that they can now enjoy the freedom to... have sex, celebrate christmas, gamble, embrace politics etc.
there are still biblical scriptures and principles in place that if you still followed the bible would mean you avoid these things and yet these are now embraced as one of the perks of no longer being a jw so in my confusion i ask.... if these are what you want, isn't it more correct to say you no longer follow the bible as apposed to just the jw's?.
It is the JW that I don't believe.You see they don't know what the Bible says.They are wishy washy and changed their minds just like the wind.One day the wind is blowing from the East and the next day it is from the West.As has been brought out on the Web, they shut down a site because it told the truth about the WBTS using their own publications. As one example,God's principles don't change yet they changed the principle on Blood.
You will hear comments at JW meeting,that many so called worldly people have high moral standards but...than attempt to qualify their answers as to why these people are bad.
As for myself and the Bible ,not enough time or room on this forum.

there are a lot of dumb organization men.
gb losch seems to be the top dog for dumbness.. in the local halls i've seen and heard many dumb elders open their mouths.. one elder had a fondness for bible prophecy and watchtower chronology.
he always speculated on what the "watchtower really means" about a statement in print.
i am no longer sure where i stand on the whole supreme being(s) thing anymore.
but i feel like i need to find out where i stand before i move in any particular direction.
how could it exist if there was no universe?
The way I look at the whole 9 yards/ball of wax.Just live and enjoy life.The more you read the Bible the more pissed off you get.The more you try and figure things out,the more confused you get.As you pointed out in your long narrative.Like I said live and enjoy life.Life is to short to worry about mundane things..that you mentioned.

a prominent bethel elder shared this information with another elder: there are some bethel workers who have been invited to leave bethel, but are refusing to do so and are taking the society to court while still residing in brooklyn.
if this is true, this could be the reason behind the sale of brooklyn property.

Don't they have to sign "vow of poverty" so the WBTS get charity status.Also aren't there some sort of documents ie qualifications,such as Doctor,Lawyer.Oh wait Lawyer would be qualified to sue.

after 3 years of mental liberation for me, i feel that i am a fairly well rounded out person now.
very happy within myself.
my wife & i have had our ups & downs the past 3 years.
I am sorry to hear that.The way I see it these people are hard wired and the switch in on wbts.You can try all the programmes in the world but cannot change the outcome.You can talk til you are blue in the face about all the false doctrine of the wbts it will do no good.You have to change the hard wire.Let me know when you have rewired to poor soul.

Thanks,Blondie You hit them right on the head.
May I add to Q15 because this really gets my goat."individuals do not fully understand a certain position taken by the slave class" Look I do not understand your position when you say the generation that saw 1914 will NOT pass away before the end WILL come.I said this this was not a bible teaching 30 years ago.So why should I wait for 20 years for you to define a generation only to change your defination of a generation again.Not only that but in 2000 you said the end was near because the (so called annointed fds was getting old ) and some would still be on the Earth before the end would come.When I read that article I said they will have to change their tune in 10 years.No I do not have to wait for some slave class that does not know it's ass from a hole in the ground.
Than you have the gull to say "loyalty will move us to act humbly and wait on Jehovah to clarify matters" Do not give me that BS wait on Jehovah because I know and understand Jehovah's view point on things.It is you who don't understand Jehovah and the Bible that is why you are so wishy washy and have to correct your misunderstanding so often.

"if your speaking truthfully"..are you going to change,what you have to say?.....if your caught in a lie..are you going to change what you have to say?..............what is more likely,to need"new light?..
"the truth,or a lie?...............................outlaw
If you speak truth, you never ever ever have to change your story.But if you are the WBTS well that is another story and you have to always change your story.
