instrumental, I read ISoCF firstly (early 1990's) , sneakily read it in the car and at work, it was the final nail in my jw career, there was no going back, the fraud was so clearly exposed for what it was; a lie and a fraud.

Did Ray Franz Help You To Get Out of “The Truth”?
by minimus ini sneakily read his books at work.
it was written in such a way that no one could accuse him of being another bitter old apostate.. once it registered in my brain, especially after reading the second book, i knew i had to get out!.

I sense it will continue, but if it does expect less meetings and more congs cramming into fewer KH's spread miles away, like the GB would care though

Muslims and the Jehovah's Witnesses
by Tameria2001 infirst i want to say that i don't know very much about the muslims, and what i am going to say is not attacking anyone, but instead, it was something that was said to me by a muslim man a few years back.. back in 2004 my husband and i found ourselves in a homeless situation.
his job had ended because the plant that he was working at, had shut down, and was sent off to china.
at the time our two sons were still very young, so we ended up staying at a couple of different homeless shelters until my husband could find another job, which took a total of three months before he found a new job, in a new state.

heard the same and with Judaism, because of the monotheistic deity, they almost jump up and down with their so called brethren, talk about the trinity,born again and other evangelical Christianity issues they run to the hills, laughable.

When did Cook, the new GB member, start claiming to be anointed, and what are the implications?
by jwfacts inkenneth cook was a "helper" in the writing department, which is apparently a role for those of the great crowd.
watchtower 15/10/15 p.3 states that helpers are of the great crowd.
"since 1992, the governing body has appointed experienced, mature christian elders to help its committees carry out their work.

there is about as much elegance as Cooky being a member of the 144k , as you,me, Stalin, Mao,Pal Pot,Hitler,or any other degenerate through human history being one, Cook, dont be such a knob.

Family is now reaping what they sowed and they don't like it.
by Gemmel ini resigned from the jw's in my 20's over 30 years ago, i was immediately shunned by my entire family and it's remained that way with a few exceptions ever since.
one of those exceptions was being contacted by a cousin a few years back and during that conversation i discovered that my mother had been and still was the prime mover in my complete and continuing shunning.
i then used what contacts i had left to confirm it.

utter stupidity and if I was god I'd be well pissed off with Jesus, he lied, led people astray to follow a dream that never materialised, a false prophet basically, a snake oil salesman, an ancient Amway salesman and Madoff incarnation

BS stories in the publications
by Billzfan23 inthis is an example of a story that just strikes me as funny from their publications:.
"wilson, a christian from ghana, was notified that in a few days, he would be fired from his job.
on his final day at work, he was assigned to wash the private car of the managing director of the company.

could have been a "plant" happens in all walks of life, nothing to do weather Wilson,Bob or Jaimie or any other Tom, Dick and Harry are Christians or whatever, I've had it done to me and I'm an atheist, I returned the item of value to whom it belonged to and nothing ever was said, I wasn't all of a sudden propelled to be the CEO of the company I was working for at the time, nor did I receive share options that could have seen me retire!

Just a thought
by moley injust a hypothetical question.
if the society was right and armageddon came a knocking would you want to live in a society run by the org and bully elders.. would rather die at armageddon.
i would.
-
jookbeard
its not even hypothetical, Armageddon cannot ever be analysed as even being in the realms of physical possibility. it cannot and wont ever happen.
