  And God Gave Us Grace [Mouthy!]

  dear newbies and others somehow unaquainted with our resident grandma,.

  "...the watchtower is determined to doggedly hang on to the lie that the time of the end commenced in 1914. there is no other explanation for the watchtower's persistent and seeming incurable interpretive schizophrenia.

  Pedophiles in Good Standing

  by UnDisfellowshipped in

  here is a very good quote you can use against the society from a watchtower publication that everyone knows: .

  you can live forever in paradise on earth book, pages 187-188: .

  "if church members who gamble, get drunk or do other wrongs are permitted to remain in good standing within their church, what does this show?

  BREAKING MY SILENCE EVERYONE READ!!!

  by D8TA in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as ive made it known on this board, my current status with the watchtower bible and tract society is that of inactive.

  this is a loophole i have utilized, to keep an open channel of communication with family members in the organization.. i want to clarify with everyone: i do not hold any doctrinal ideas, theology, ideology, opinions expressed in any form by the wtbts.

  therefore, to simply put, i do not believe in the wtbts in any way, shape, or form.

  2. friends

  after much deliberation, i decided to go "out" at the end of a public talk.

  it didn't go down too well, but at least i was able to give some of my reasons for leaving.. i've put some of the details on my homepage.

  i'll update it more when i get the time and the strength.

  Pink Songbooks - Green Bibles

  by nicolaou in

  2. friends

  those of us who've been around long enough will understand the title.

  what we are looking for here are examples of the society's lack of taste.. for example, i'm sure our kingdom hall wasn't the only one in the 70's with dark brown carpeting that rose halfway up the walls and a nice trendy rubber plant in the corner of the platform!.
