Elders raid a SDA church!
by ozziepost inis it true what we're hearing?
it's been reported to us that two elders burst in to a sda church service about a month ago seeking to trap a witness man there.
the man, a witness for 14 years, had become disillusioned with the affairs of the wts in australia after viewing the "sunday" program on channel nine which exposed the cover-up of paedophilia in the witness movement.

The way to get the jw's goat!
by gypsywildone inthe way to stick it to the borg is not self defeating behaviors.
it's not smoking a cigarette, & saying "nah,nah,nah look at me".
it is not putting yourself at risk in risky sexual acting out.

Seedy! My old sweetie Seedy
Well, they can spout the party line for public consumption, but inside they KNOW Seedy, they KNOW!
I hope they see me, and hear about my four successful children, and our happy lives, and wonder "how can this be", since we left Jehovah and all.
True Mulan, people like you & your family prove them wrong.
I'm talking about all the people with relatives still in that are trying to reach their relatives. Leading by example.

Is There Anything To Admire Jehovah's Witnesses For...... In Reality?
by minimus inyou hear of people saying, "i admire jws for their zeal".
i wonder whether the witnesses' zeal is all that admirable.
al-qaida's got a lot of zeal too......

The JW's drink and party more than I do. I know this for a fact because I used to be one!
Of couse they do redchillipepper, they are unhappy. They are repressed, stressed out & aren't even allowed to admit it! What happy, well adjusted person sits around getting drunk or goes & gets shit faced every chance they get. Congrats on your son, that is awesome!I
I used to be somewhat amused at the JW defenders that were SO quick to tell me that I "couldn't or wouldn't live up to Jehovah's standards" and that I "went back to a debauched life" nonsense.
I was quick to tell them that I was past the 60 year mark and do nothing "different" from what I did as a JW---except for the horrible rat race I was knocking myself out for---and more recently, quietly celebrating the holidays.
I was quick to remind them that my life is still as fulfilling and rewarding, even in more ways than when I was trying to play "Beat The Clock" by "doing more", and that I honestly feel that I have a better relationship with the Savior than I ever had as a JW.
JWBot, my mother & grandmother were waiting with impatient & bated breath, for me to fulfil their dire predictions! Because I didn't "return to". Hell, I was only there 2 and a half years, & I was forced! They were trying at the time to tell me I didn't need college, etc. & all kinds of nonsensical drivel. But they were there waiting & watching for me to fail. I never did hear the explaination for WHY I didn't fail. I didn't care to listen to any more of their dire predictions. The most my mother could ever muster after that was "you KNOW it's the one, true religion".
The old jw lady I take food to, the most criticism she can come up with is "materialistic". If no other unhappiness befalls someone that leaves, then they left for "materialistic reasons". They are now "spiritually weak & materialistic".
They can explain it away like this, they can PRETEND, but they have eyes & ears & they really KNOW the score, even if they won't admit it. They can only indulge in self delusion for so long. They spout the party line, but I know it gets most of their goats.

They are good & practised at what they do. Hell, they spend hours every week perfecting the art.
It will get better, you will get stronger & stand your ground.

Sincere responses only
by YoursChelbie ini have been wondering, maybe one of the moderators knows,.
how does someone start a thread and block certain posters (like ones they'd rather not participate) from responding to a particular thread?.
or do we just leave ourselves open to any and every post and comment on a sensitive issue once it is started?.

Unfortunately, you will always have a few argumentative individuals, those that throw one liners into a serious subject, or just plain thread hijackers.

My brother was committed last week
by hoodwinked inmy brother, a long time witness who has been disfellowshipped, shunned and treated like shit by the witnesses for the 10 yrs has been committed to a phsyciatric wing of our local hospital.
he has been having delusions saying he has been chosen by jehovah and will be taken up by the archangels in to heaven.
he has also been hearing voices of demons and and blames satan for being responsible for all the troubles he has had in that past 5 yrs or so.
