  Do you atheists resent the believers on here and do you believers resent the atheists?

  by Lozhasleft in

  2. friends

  i'm wondering how people feel about us exjws either becoming atheists or continuing on with a faith in god?.

  do you get angry or frustrated at the opposing view?.

  i'm new but i've seen different reactions to both on here...as for me i am happy to live and let live nowadays...its ok with me whatever people want to choose for themselves..... personally i still have enormous faith and love for god....if the jws couldnt destroy it i dont think much else could...?.

  ...well, as was explained to me anyway.. since countries that were previously under ban are now able to report, this has resulted in the partaker numbers to go up.. .

  honestly, would you be troubled if this site ceased to exist?.

  it is a hotbed of n00 lite, so it would be a "loss"
  as far as not having current and timely info about
  the ongoing machinations of the b0rg....

  it cracks me up to be "in the know" before the
  uber pious dr0nes who think of me and mine
  as bird f00d!

  Give Reasons Why The "Memorial" Is A Sham To You

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i wouldn't go.

  i was given 3 invitations to be given to my daughter, my ex and myself.

  i thanked them for the invites and just chuckled to myself.. if you decided to tell a witness why you weren't going to attend, what would you say?

  http://jehovahs-witness-news.blogspot.com/2010/03/manufactures-alert.html

  T he Maker of all human beings (JEHOVAH GOD) is recalling all units manufactured, regardless of make or year, due to a serious defect in the primary and central component of the heart. This is due to a malfunction in the original prototype units, code named “Adam” and “Eve,” resulting in the reproduction of the same defect in all subsequent units. This defect has been technically termed “Sub-sequential Internal Non-Morality,” or more commonly known as S.I.N., as it is primarily expressed.

  Some of the symptoms include: 1. Loss of direction
  2. Foul vocal emissions
  3. Amnesia of origin
  4. Lack of peace and joy
  5. Selfish or violent behavior
  6. Depression or confusion in the mental component
  7. Fearfulness
  8. Idolatry
  9. Rebellion

  The Manufacturer, Jehovah God, who is neither liable nor at fault for this defect, is providing factory-authorized repair and service free of charge to correct this defect.

  The Repair Technician, Jesus, has most generously offered to bear the entire burden of the staggering cost of these repairs. There is no additional fee required.

  The number to call for repair in all areas is: P-R-A-Y-E-R.
  Once connected, please upload your burden of SIN through the REPENTANCE procedure. Next, download ATONEMENT from the Repair Technician, Jesus, into the heart component.

  No matter how big or small the SIN defect is,

  Jehovah God will replace it with: 1. Love
  2. Joy
  3. Peace
  4. long suffering
  5. Kindness
  6. Goodness
  7. Faith
  8. Mildness
  9. Self control

  Please see the operating manual, the B.I.B.L.E. for further details on the use of these fixes.

  WARNING: Continuing to operate the human being unit without correction voids any manufacturer warranties, exposing the unit to dangers and problems too numerous to list and will result in the human unit being permanently impounded. For free emergency service, call on Jehovah, through Jesus.

  DANGER: The human being units not responding to this recall action will have to be scrapped into everlasting destruction. The SIN defect will not be permitted to enter paradise so as to prevent contamination of that facility. Thank you for your attention.

  P.S. Please assist where possible by notifying others of this important recall notice, and you may contact the Father any time by ‘Knee mail,’ through his son, Jesus.

  ok this is weird i am noticing more and more jw's on facebook.

  even an elder i know has started an account.

  at first it seemed like it was just the "spiritually weak" who really don't care or do much field service.

  every time i see a thread about JWs and FB
  i do a quick peek and sure enough, they are
  still registered in droves... i DO notice they
  are tightening up their security so it is less
  likely to peruse "friends" to find other JWs....

  but they definitely arent listening to mother
