The biggest lie they told me is that the Bible study was for free. Unfortunately many of us have discovered too late the enormous costs associated with studying the Bible with these people.

What are the WTBTS's biggest lies?
by outbutnotdown ini've been out for about 10 years and, to be honest, i have begun to worry less and less about what that org.
but in eman's recent post, "you have one shot", sirona mentioned about all the lies that the wtbts have told.
i have read c of c, but my memory is fading on what some of the more blatant lies that i recall from that book and other articles.. just in case i have an encounter with a jw who may actually be considering leaving but wants more support/reasons to leave, can people help me by refreshing my memeory on the biggest lies that they have told, that would catch their attention the quickest?

Would you consider public speaking?
by nicolaou inone thing the watchtower society has managed to do is to create a pool of talented, articulate and witty speakers.
what happens to them when they leave the society?
some of them post here and on other forums.

In my former occupation, I did quite a lot of public speaking. Public speaking is among the very few advantages I have garnered for myself from my internment as a witness, that and quitting smoking. Apparently their training methods work pretty well as I have been a very successful speaker at events with hundreds of attendees. Some of the most notable speaking engagements include providing a 30 ? 90 minute discourse before the technical staff of the National Security Agency, the Attorney General and technical staff, several divisions of NASA, the Computer Security Institute?s annual convention, the Surveillance Expo (an annual cloak and dagger, spy /spook and PI convention), and the US Treasury Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms (ATF).
Needles to say none of my presentations included any witness related theology or buzzwords, although I must admit some were a bit apocalyptic considering the subject matter.
My advice to anyone wishing to attempt public speaking is to contact Toastmasters or some other public speaking training program. It may cost you a few bucks but it?s a bargain compared to the price you will be paying for years and years because of having anything to do with the witnesses. Been there, done that!

US ready to seize Gulf oil in 1973

Yeru,
I?ll bet the bulk of this story is most likely true, however it?s not exactly real news to people that understand military strategy, as obviously you do. In addition to plans on invading the Middle East, the US government likely has general plans on military campaigns against many of our current allies too. Why? Because the political and military conditions in the world can change in a heartbeat, and it is only prudent to be as best prepared as we can.

Senators Told Iraq Had WOMD & Delivery Capability
by Satanus inhttp://www.floridatoday.com/!newsroom/localstoryn1216nelson.htm
u.s. sen. bill nelson said monday the bush administration last year told him and other senators that iraq not only had weapons of mass destruction, but they had the means to deliver them to east coast cities.
nelson, d-tallahassee, said about 75 senators got that news during a classified briefing before last october's congressional vote authorizing the use of force to remove saddam hussein from power.

Guest,
I think maybe you need to do a little more checking on your facts as regards the US giving infected blankets to Indians.
I?m not an expert on world history but I?m pretty sure that the incident you are referring to is attributed to a British general by the name of Amherst sometime around the 17hunderds, which incidentally is well before the discovery of germs by Pasteur a hundred or so years later.

Nelson said the senators were told Iraq had both biological and chemical weapons, notably anthrax, and it could deliver them to cities along the Eastern seaboard via unmanned aerial vehicles, commonly known as drones.
Exactly what is your point? Did Saddam have drones modified to carry WMD such as anthrax? Yes that was known long ago, the Iraqis even made videotapes of drone practice runs and related experiments; this is not exactly breaking news, so what?s the point??
Could he hit East coast cities? I guess so but first you have to bring the drones here don?t you, and why just the east coast, I thought we had cities on the west coast too? Sounds a bit hokey if you ask me.

My son taking actions to get himself Dfed
by freeman inlast night my older son, (now 20) decided to smoke a cigarette in front of active witnesses.
of course they will be obliged to report this at once to the elders, who will question him about it.
i knew something big was coming as i overheard him say to my wife the other day ?your not mad at me because of anything i did, you?re just mad at me because i?m an atheist?.

Thank you everyone for your words of encouragement. When he does get the boot and after things are settled down, I?m going to show him your postings so he can see for himself the contrast between the Borg and real genuine caring people like yourselves.
Happy holidays everyone
