They always do somebody shitty and then act like it's your own fault.Something similar to this story happened to me also.And then they were at my door all the time begging me to come back to the meetings.They said"You have to serve Jehovah, not men".Well, I don't want to serve a God who's people are stuck up and hurtful.Don't even talk to them when he brings an elder back with him.I say, if you only have to serve God,then he's also the only one you have to answer to.To hell with them.

disfellowshipping
by Jokemyster insince the organization has recieved "new light" regarding the 1914 generation, and completely changed their view on this, does this mean that.
all the former jehovah's witnesses who were disfellowshipped years ago for the same view the organization is now teaching will automatically be.
accepted into fellowship again?

I seriously doubt that they will be taken back into the flock and offered an apology.

I think that is now a matter of conscience.If it doesn't bother you to wear thongs,then by all means go ahead.But if you feel so guilty about it you cannot even concentrate on what's being said from the platform,then your conscience is telling you that you should switch to grandma drawers.

Are JW's really seperate from the world?
by Andyman ini have done alot of posting on different boards since i started on the internet.
i have found that jw's are really not as "seperate" from the world as they claim to be.. as a jw i was told we had to be "seperate" from the world.
you know, get drunk, use drugs, abuse our families, cheat on taxes, lie, be greedy, etc.. but from what i have seen in my old congregtion, and the stories i have read here and on other boards, this statement isn't really true.

I knew an elder who use to pay someone to get him an illegitimate inspection sticker for his car when it wouldn't pass.

Donation Arrangement
by Frenchy ini am curious as to how many of you are completely comfortable with the 'new' donation arrangement.
(okay, i know it's not new anymore but...) do you prefer it over the old way?
(i'd like to leave these two magazines with you for a contribution of fifty cents).

People must surely be wondering why the jws charged for the magazines for all those years ,then all of a sudden it's on a donation basis.(If they can do it this way,then why did it take so long?)

Early jws more deserving?
by dsgal in.
here's something i don't get...i was reading in a jw publication(i think it was "proclaimers of god's kingdom"that the early witnesses only had to go in,sit down and listen to a talk.they never even had to raise their hands or utter a word.didn't go door-to door either,and yet most if not all of them claimed to be of the "anointed class".nowadays if you don't comment at every meeting,spend most of your free time in field service and give talks yourself on the tms(which they didn't even have in those days) you are made to feel like your'e not even worthy to live on the earth,let alone heaven.so what's up with that?what did they do to make god love them more?.

Thanks to every one for your replies.
jgnat,
Your reply makes a lot of sense.Actually,I have been expecting some "new light" about the anointed.I don't know if they'll ever all be dead and gone though,since the memorial partakers have not decreased since the mid-1980's.Strange.

POSTING HERE
by Bhagavad in.
if you did not still have some kind of umbilical connection to jehovah's witnesses, you would not have to keep posting here.. i hope you all appreciate my opinion of you, as well as of simon.
there's lots of the world to be experienced out of this freaking site.
