i was a gung-ho advocate for jws.
i got on the message boards and would argue down any detractor, apostate, church pastor, disgruntled ex-jw, you name it... i was out in the ministry constantly, practically running from door to door, preaching.
i started studies left and right.

several years ago, before my wife and i left, my 5 yr old daughter got up during the watchtower to cross the aisle to sit with someone else.
she tripped on the roving microphone wire and smashed her head on the foot of a metal chair.
the bleeding was profuse and an ambulance was called.
You can bet your last dollar that the wbts will go to wireless mics after this .The wbts like to say they are righteous and honest and obey all rules and laws.I do not think having mic cables in isles in a public place is lawful.

12 the watchtower ?
5 what good results there can be when.
children are trained to keep a simple eye!.
What do you expect from an uneducated GB/FBS.They should get an education so they know how the world functions.

The R.C. bow to the virgin Mary.The J.W. bow to the GB.
i got some notes from a talk that guy pierce of the governing body gave in the past few years.
there was a good portion on eduation.
these are the relevant notes (not a transcript):.
He should say "What puny FDS/GB teach us is garbage" and why "spend our life time listening to the garbage that the FDS/GB teaches.

i have such a love/hate, 50/50 relationship with this organization any more, but a letter was read to the elders and ministerial servants that has pushed me to the 30/70 range in favor of hate, if even momentarily.
most of you if not all are aware of the auxilliary pioneering initiative for this upcoming april.
it's no secret that i'm not real fond of pioneering as its unscriptural for one thing.
Iam totally confused,the fields are white,the harvest is great,the Master is asking for more works,the time left is reduced and now the master cut our hours down.Dam I am pissed off.Now the harvest will not get done and the end will get delayed.Shit why doesn't he make up his mind are we gonig to get this harvest done or what.

jehovah's witnesses say center would have big impact.
a planned 3,000-seat educational center will have a substantial economic impact on orangeburg county over the next five years, jehovah's witnesses officials say.. .
the center could generate $264 million in revenues over a five-year period, with the added benefit of more than $18.4 million in new sales tax revenues for the local area, church spokesman bill sims said.. .
The $264,000,000 goes right to WT HQ.What bs are they saying.Take your local Kingdom Assembly Hall,all paid for by the locals,buildt by the locals,reno by the locals,maintained by the locals.AND PAY RENT TO THE WBTS FOR LOCAL ASSEMBLIES.
They are very good at twisting things when it comes to money.This 3k hall will it really be buildt by outsiders or by locals(JW'S) who will claim tax deductions for their over priced work.

i ask this question in harmony with deedub's swan song thread which i linked below.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/members/private/205902/1/time-to-say-good-bye.
to some degree, i think i understand where she's coming from.
just speaking from my own experiences since stepping into the world of anonymous apostacy, i went through a few different phases of personal outlooks.
How could I adjust my perfect attitude ,I couldn't.If I readjusted it than I would be a liar.However that is no problem for the GB because they are perfect liars.
Talk about their attitude lately it is getting worse.Before they wanted slaves with some freedom,now they took the freedom away.

with the new " overlap generation " theory that the wt society is pushing onto rank and file jehovah's witnesses since last year this article i found really heavy hitting in the jw version of the wt.
the wt society is leaking oil in that confidence is low among jw's in not really buying into the " generation overlap " theory as many younger jw's are exiting the organization.
so what better way to try reeling members back in by giving them an article entitled " do not deceive yourself with false reasoning " !
"We should not think that Satan is the ONLY one who can mislead us" HELLO.HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.You Got that right,because you are the OTHER ONE.
"Concerned that this system lasted longer than expected".Iam old and broke are you going to pay for my rent.clothes,food,medical.You see I have no retirement money.It ok for you because you have ALL the luxury.
B
PS:Yeah this system sure lasted longer them you old foggies taught and many of your buddies are not around.
2011 yearbook, singing praise to jehovah, p.17-21:.
singing songs of praise to jehovah is an integral part of our worship.
at the 2009 conventions, therefore, god's servants were overjoyed when they were told of a new songbook, sing to jehovah.
Going back to the yearbook.So the GB researches all books,libaries,publications,etc.so we can have the proper food at the proper time.However,they have to edit,change,delete and re-write their own history, song book.When I compare their WT with their bound volumes they are different.I can't not believe these guys.
