this was the first time in almost eight years i have had a conversation with a jw .
we were on vacation last week at my son and daughter in laws home .
one morning the doorbell rang and as i went to answer it my daughter in law said she thought it was witnesses .
nugget said:Isn't it interesting that witnesses do not know what their current beliefs are.
I think many of them have stopped thinking. When they get to the meetings many become zombies they're there, they go through the motions and most of what's said does not register.
This I think is especially true for the under 40 witless population.
i still believe it's coming.
i think if god is real, it has to come.
it only makes sense.
I think this earth is about as paradise as it get's right now.
i have obtained audio of a good portion of this year's convention program i just posted my analysis of this part on my blog.
while the talk on apostates generated a lot of buzz on the net, the rest of the program contains some real lunacy.
i expect to concentrate my efforts there.
Nice analysis.
how would you answer him?
.
I would pose a question to his question, much like jesus was purported to do. My question would be something like this:
If the big A doesn't come, will you kiss my ass before you die?

Nice lesson, you mean we didn't all begin 6000 years ago.
The narrator sounds like Jack Barr
i know i rarely if ever read the magazines that i used to promote and place with householders (besides the watchtower study).
hypocritical no?.
I didn't read them, I was an elder and just skimmed the study articles.
Way too boring.

Welcome AC, your video was excellent. Nice breakdown of the talk.
It is impossible for others to understand what we are going through which is why forums like these are so important for us. Keep posting and keep us posted as to what is going on in your world.
Congratulations for getting out of the cult and learning "TTATT" we may not be able to bring the bORG down, but we can sure slow down their growth
last year i wrote a letter to the religion writer at the local paper.
didn't get very far...but thought i'd do it again.
can't hurt, right.. here it is:.
I hope it get's past their mind numbed, newspaper media brains. Though maybe they know that nobody really cares and they're just filling paper with ink because hardly anyone reads the newspaper anymore. For that matter, hardly anyone cares about the Jehovah's Witnesses nor are they interested in what they are doing for their weekend summer vacation.
remember the drama about persecution,suffering, that a modern-day job experiences?
the jw's under ban in a " landmark ruling", our faithful brother conversing with job in the new world, it' all too wonderful!
especially job wearing pants and a tunic style shirt!
NEW ANNOUNCEMENT:
From now on only married people are allowed to hold hands but only in their bedroom and the door must be closed.
are the governing body, 8 pope-ettes, just jealous?.
what group of people doesn't want their finest minds to be educated?
(facepalm) .
When people get educated, it is much harder to fool and control them.
Which is why I don't understand why they haven't founded there own institution of higher learning (JWU) or they could call it "Rutherford University"
that way they could control what people learn and still keep them in their control
