  Why do so many exJWs promote Watchtower lies and cover-ups?

  by Fernando in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  several footnotes in the nwt correctly define apostasy as "unfaithfulness".. that is spiritual unfaithfulness/adultery/fornication/prostitution/harlotry.. in scripture the jews were called (spiritual) prostitutes (37 times in ezekiel chapters 16 and 23).. they claimed a relationship with the god of abraham.. yet they lusted after other gods.. and they had frequent wanton spiritual intercourse with these gods.. to cover-up their own lewd apostasy the watctower lyingly redefines the word to mean a dissenter (against the watchtower).. anyone who dissents is labelled an apostate.. ray franz discovered their apostasy.. he dissented.. he exposed their spiritual harlotry in detail (isocf and coc).. they lyingly labelled him an apostate.. and many if not most exjws say this is all fine.. even worse, many exjws proudly wear the label.. to show their proud support of watchtower lies and cover-ups.. how sad....

  Why are there no black angels?

  by snare&racket in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  jw literature is racist as hell.

  jesus looks like an american folk singer, the governing body look like a corrupt version of an enron luncheon.. the jw's literally print different magazines for africa with african pictures, black people instead of white, to make it 'more appealing' to them.... just to be clear that means they think the opposite is true too!.

  ....and then there is the lack of black angels..... .

  Crazy JW urban legend

  by Simon in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  a sure guarantee that this was bogus (really, any reasoning is required at all?

  ) was that it did the rounds applied to john denver, annie lennox and others.. basically, they relied on satan (oh yes) for their musical ability (i knew it) and any jws in the audience would be asked to leave because ... (drum roll) ... they blocked the signal to satan so couldn't perform with them present!.

  anyone else remember that gem?.

  10 Years out of the JW Organization- What I've Learned ( For what it's Worth)

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  10 years ago i stopped attending jehovah's witness meetings for good.

  walked out of the kingdom hall cold turkey never to return based on injustices i observed among others and myself at the hands of elders giving out not god's counsel but personal opinions as counsel .

  some of them weren't even giving out wt society counsel- just personal opinions.

  I regret my disassociation.

  by Zoos in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if i knew then what i know now, i might never have disassociated myself.

  i realize all i can do is speculate on what could have been.

  however, when i consider the number of people i might have been able to help by dropping little thought-provoking seeds, i really regret having jumped to the decision to disassociate so quickly.. ive read the accounts of several people on this forum telling of how stressful it is to be in the position that i just described above.

  Is there an official name for this comedic device?

  by Island Man in

  1. social
  2. humour

  is there an official name for the comedic device where one replaces one word with another word having a similar pronounciation but a different (usually derisive) meaning?.

  for example, some skeptics deride the bible by spelling it "buy-bull".

  same or simliar pronounciation but entirely different meaning.

  Is ingratitude and education inversely proportionate?

  by abiather in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  bible describes ingratitude as one of the characteristics of last days.

  people will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money ....ungrateful.... etc.

  (2 timothy 3:2) it seems this prophecy about people becoming ungrateful is having its fulfillment more than 100%.. i was watching an interview on the tv the other day.

  What do you think about the latest Mentalist episode? (SPOILERS!)

  by will-be-apostate in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  red john is sheriff thomas mcallister, which was a big surprise for me and also a bit dissapointing.

  i was expecting a more complicated reveal of red john.

  also the scene when jane kills him is just not that much epic as one would expect that it should be after 5 season of chasing.. however i look forward to see the way lisbon an the others get out of this mess.
