  my mother sent this to me-

  by Younglove1999 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so my mom sends me this to me and i hate these jw forward things- .

  i want to have a good response when she asks if i got it- because i feel like it has nothing to do with jw's, just a coincidence.

  i feel like she thinks i hate god, but it has nothing to do with him- it's the religion itself.

  this story is wrong on so many levels.
  
  1)these people couldn't wait to have a child so they took the 'less desirable'option of having a foreign older kid. that's fine. they just wanted him so desperately...great.....but then they find this wonderful religion and try to CANCEL an adoption. how do you do that??????
  
  2) they rationalize that god's kingdom can still come first since the kid will MOST OF THE TIME AT SCHOOL ANYWAY since he's older. that makes it that oh alright we can take him after all since he won't really need us that much we can go on doing our business
  
  note: the cancellation of the adoption of a little human life they so desperately wanted plus that type of selfish thinking they use as rationalization says a whole lot about the evil and power that is brainwashing.
  
  3) the kid is so happy because he turns out to be a witness and so are they!! allelujah!
  
  can you spell PROPAGANDA!!!!! that doesn't even deserve a deeper analysis. propaganda pure and simple. poor kid. if he does exist i hope he never gets disfellowshipped and shunned. to be abandonned once is horrible enough, to be abandonned a second time is absolutely unthinkable.

  2. experiences

  whilst a jw, one thing that was evident to me was the constant gossip and backbiting.....being nice to someones face and then talking about them behind there backs.were you ever a "victim" of this sort of behaviour???

  is it as common as i suspect from cong.

  to cong???.

  didn't get to read anyone's reply but i think i am the queen victim of gossiping at the hall.
  
  i was living in italy, and got reproved. a sister told her daughter living in LONDON why i got reproved(actually said much worse) who told a sister in her hall who used to be in my hall.this siter then told her sister in BELGIUM who reported it to her brother still living in FLORENCE, italy. well later this brother went to bethel in ROME and him and another brother from there found out my records and reported it to people in my cong. (that other brother got removed from his duties actually because he's theone who had access to these records)
  
  So it was official. they all went around for years saying i was reproved for sleeping with a brother in my hall when that wasn't even true.and that brother obviously knew it but maybe he thought the gossip was more spicy than the truth.
  
  the witness community is very small. i realized it because i've lived attended halls in 4 different countries and you wouldn't believe who knows who.
  once you're marked that's it. you're tainted for life.
  that brother that i was saying earlier followed my tracks and made sure he told any brother who might show interest that i was no good.
  
  and the elders spread gossip also. think about it. they're the ones people go to to know if such and such is marriage material and they have to justify why they may say no. so there you go.

  i called an old witness friend who pretty much ignores the df rule yesterday.

  he sounded about the same as he did the last time i saw him 20 years ago.

  i asked about some of my old friends.

  joel, i want you to know that we understant(those of us who are df'ed) and relate totally to what you say. i know i've felt the same way and still do, as you do.
  
  i called an old friend of mine this week to ask him this very question :' are your lives just going on without me?'
  and the answer was basically YES it has to. and so does yours. and as i can see it has. these moments will happen because not only you have lost people you love but you also know unlike JWs that the casualty in relationships that this had caused is not all done for the sake of satisfying the will of a grand creator. it is just a controlling policy set forth by an abusive religion.
  
  you can have a satisfying life without them. and you can only feel sad for them that not only are sacrificing their sometimes life-long friendships but their youth, talents, and personalities for this sect.
  
  it's hard not to become bitter but i'm sure you have no reason to. you have a wonderful marriage and career ....and a whole lot of people who can be a support to you here!
  
  take care.

  This story just made me so mad!

  by Sad emo in

  2. friends

  i heard it on the radio last night.

  i was going to post it on the other 'should marijuana/cannabis be legalised' thread - but since this case involved alcohol as well, you can't be sure which 'drug' if either was a contributor to this sicko's actions.. i'm not going to post the full story here as some may find the details distressing.

  it basically involved a guy who had been smoking weed and drinking who denied a dying woman any dignity in her final hours.

  How Would You Handle Your Daughter Dating A Different Ethnic Person?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know of someone who's daughter is dating a young man from the bahamas.

  the girl is 20 and he's 24 and was already married to an australian woman 10 years older than him.

  he has no use for his crack addicted mother and he tolerates his younger sister that seems to be on the same course as her mommy.

  oompa said: still_in74 you have so much passion for truth at climax study that i demand that you post your observations post bookstudy every week!

  so when i comment i can say "oh yes, the issue of government was a burning issue of the day because it says so right here in the paragraph, so thats what this prophecy in revelation means!).

  there's what the falling star means !

  "(2) That they claim the sole right to interpret the Scriptures, and that therefore they alone know what the people should believe; and by this means they have kept the people in ignorance of the Bible, and now in this time of increased knowledge and much reading, when the people might read and understand, these self-constituted “successors to the apostles” discourage the people from reading the Bible andBible literature,..."
  
  
  are they still talking about the clergy or THEMSELVES???..
  why is it different when it's them doing it?? oh yeah i forgot ...cause they're the good guys.
