  Which philosophy would you personally value the highest and why?

  by Qcmbr in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  thinking about the number of atheist v ag/tec/fhn/sab threads (hehe - i'm only yanking your chains!

  ) and i thought i should make an effort to look at and discuss the rest of the rainbow.

  atheism does not define my influencing primary worldview though you'd be hard pressed to see that from my posts.. i'd be interested in what philosphy , idea, rule(s) most influence you and why - why do you feel they are superior, what do they make you value more or less , what would you be without your philosophy.

  Did anyone else get somewhat offended by the term "rank and file" that the WT attorney used.

  by life is to short in

  i was just surprised by that term being used by jim mccabe when he said "jonathan kendrick was not a leader or a pastor, he was just a rank-and-file member.".

  i thought that was only an apostate term and also what a put down to us lowly members.

  we are just a rank-and-file person.

  I wonder now if at a person's baptism they will be told they are now ordained ministers of the good news?

  i've uploaded a video that discusses the dramatic jury verdict regarding the abuse suffered by candace conti, of which you are all aware.

  if you're not yet familiar with the story for any reason, please check out my blog article on the link below.... http://jwsurvey.org/general-information/the-watchtower-punished-society-loses-legal-battle-over-child-abuse-case.

  john hoyle suggested i get a youtube video out fairly quickly so that we can spread the message more effectively online.

  Do you now have a customized religion?

  by losthobbit in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i was never a jw.

  i was a member of the church of christ.

  i didn't jump from christian to non-believer, but rather went through a transition period, and i'd guess that all of you did the same,... changing beliefs bit by bit until you believe what you do now.. when i first realized that there were logic problems in the bible i started to find excuses for those problems.

  I am now in the "It is What it is" religion.

  somthing bad happens in life, "It is what it is"

  a death in the family, "It is what it is"

  Evolution or creation, "It is what it is"

  A God, no God, or wicked spirits that rule the world, "It is what it is"

  As yet nobodies called me on it because, yes you guessed it, "It is what it is"

  From a currently serving elder: an open letter to the organization

  by elderelite in

  2. beliefs

  there are 1000's who who hate this religion who are stuck ....inside it.

  we work against you, we use our position to convince and sway those that still drink your koolaid.

  we feed info to authorities who chase you, we warn off potiential converts by directing them to the real truth.

  minimus said: Nice letter but they don't care

  I think your probably right. On some level they don't care. Their convinced that no matter what happens, it's Jehovah's organization and he (Jah) will take care of matters.

  However it does confirm to them that there is a higher level of infiltration then they hoped there would be.

  There weakest point is their elders and ministerial servants. Many of them are uneducated, struggling to make a living, dealing with emotional problems like anxiety, depression and martial problems. They have doubts about the doctrines of the organization. The GB has the least amount of control with this group. A CO visit twice a year is all most get throw in a few assemblies to keep them in view and that's it

  The elders are the weakest link in the chain of command, they are the clay mixing with the iron at the toes of the WT beast when they start to crumble, the beast will come down.

  Bravo for all of you who are stayiing active and helping from the inside. I could have never done it I wouldn't be able to bite my tongue hard enough to keep me from talking. Plus I don't know how you can stand the boredom of all those meetings and door to door meanderings.

  Thank You, I hope the army inside keeps growing

  I'd hate to be a JW going out in service with all the bad press they're getting right now.

  The fact that most people will not be aware of any of this bad press demonstrates how piddly the bORG really is. The world does not care about them, nor does the world have any clue as to what their message is.

  I remember going out door to door after the dateline show and I don't remember anyone that was home bringing it up.

  Dear Mr. Facts

  What do you really want?

  Why are you here?

  Do you think you can accomplish anything good here?

  What are your motives?

  Why does one have to question other's motives? Shouldn't just carefully examine our own motives?

  That I don't get

  JW-Media.org - Why isn't there an official statement about the Candace Conti case?

  by DT in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  jw-media.org is strangely silent about the candace conti case.

  they haven't said anything about it as of the time of this post.. i decided to call the media department at this number (718) 560-5600. i identified myself as a researcher who also has some websites.

  i was asked for the web address of my website.

  I didn't expect they would be anything but silent on this. They're probably praying about this and waiting for an answer from Jehovah.

  I missed you too OUTLAW.

  Greetings from Candace Conti

  by AndersonsInfo in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  candace asked me to tell you thank you for all your kind expressions of support.

  this really means a lot to her.

  she wants you to know that she is coping well with all the stress and excitement, even though she's had years of anger and frustration because of being abused for so long, first by the molester, and then by the wt.

  Thank You Candace,

  Your battle against the Watchtower not only helps others who have been sexually abused while in the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society but it also helps all of us who have been emotionally abused by this group who claim to have the truth. We have left Mother's Father's Brother's, Sister's, Son's and Daughters stuck in this cult and this may help to free many of them.

  I admire your courage
