  Why Post on JWD if not from JWism?

  by journey-on in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've noticed lots of people posting here that have never been witnesses.

  since the nature of this forum is mostly about.

  the issues and problems ex-jws face and about keeping an eye on developments within the wt org, why would anybody .

  thank you...

  i am not a JW.

  i don't have a background of experience.

  i only thought that perhaps i could bring comfort to someone in need.

  i guess i was wrong.

  i work nights so when i get off i'll run by walmart to grab something to make for breakfast or just if i need something or whatever.

  this morning at 6:55 (i know because i looked at my watch) a little black girl maybe 7 years old came up to me by herself to offer me a tract... i mean come on it's still full freaking dark out and this poor little kid is handing out tracts alone.

  i asked her "where are your parents.

  Christians - Convert me! I'm Pagan!

  by Sirona in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  following on from terry's thread about mind filters and being open minded....... i'm neo-pagan.

  for a loose definition of my beliefs see here http://www.religioustolerance.org/neopaga1.htm.

  but i'm willing to consider christian belief systems.. just recently i've been studying the jewish kabballah (qabalah).

  OK...i will be the first taker. but i don't think my opinion will get you much further:-(

  you see, i have only recently been "converted" by the JWs. And i'll be damned if i ever try to convert anyone else!

  my suggestion...you are sitting at your computer...the sky is the limit. search and search some more. and draw your own conclusion.

  in all fairness, i believe the purpose of this forum is to allow each and everyone of us to share their opinions on any given subject.

  we may not always agree...still, we are all entitled to voice our views.

  this is what makes a forum alive and interesting:-)

  STOP THE MADNESS....where is this board going?

  by SnakesInTheTower in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've only posted since feb 07..but i have lurked for several years prior and there was usually something interesting on the board.

  as i was reading the active topics list this morning, only a couple things jumped out at me as interesting...its been this way since the dgate and tgate incidents.... i was discussing this with a long time poster via im yesterday....does it seem to anyone else that so many of the topics are ...i dont know....odd...or different than they used to be...and i dont mean that in a good way.. i miss the newbies coming on and telling us their stories.... i miss the long time posters updating us on their lives post-borg... i guess with the recent uproar, the lurkers are hesitant to become newbies (cant say as i blame them now...we probably scared them off , and maybe the vets are just as hesitant...after all, someone went 2 years with their fraud/hoax...who will believe anyone else now?

  i hope this is just a temporary cycle on this board..i have read many many posts from the archives...i hope one day soon we can get back to a happy medium here.. by the way, i like the fluff threads, but these seem to be more and more sex related (maybe that word will wake someone)... yet they get all the attention....and then someone goes too far and it gets locked down by a mod and the poster restricted......(i am not a prude...just sometimes enough is enough).

  You will always find someone to bring comfort in times of need...always. Some may have doubts. But there will always be those who will ignore doubts and reach out...

  If all the gold in the world were melted down into a solid cube, it would be about the size of an eight-room house.

  If a man got possession of all that gold...he could not buy a friend, character, peace of mind, clear conscience, or a sense of eternity.

  very sad...

  a 7 year-old, on a saturday morning, should be trying to steal cookies from the cookie jar without making any noise to wake up the parents, and watch cartoons on tv!!!

  Are Jehovah's Witnesses Victims Too???

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i think many witnesses are victims of deception.

  i do not believe that the vast majority of them truly understand the folly of their religion.

  like many good roman catholics or devout muslims, they believe that their faith is the true one.. many jws are basically "good" people.

  yes, i do agree.

  actually, they are the main victims. some of them simply for being born into the cult. others for being so scared to leave once they find out the real truth. i do not blame them...most of them know they will lose everything...family, friends, and all. i feel sorry for them...

  my study conductor is the nicest person i have ever met. but now i see her from a different perspective. i see her as the most brainwashed person i have ever met. yes, she is most definitely a victim...like millions of others
