i recently came to the realization that the organization is corrupt and is false.
my story is similar to many i think.
i was raised in the religion, pioneered and served as an elder for a number of years.
Welcome! Former MS, almost Elder here....felt very similar to you. Still technically in, but very sporadic and borderline inactive. Alot of great people here, we even have a guy that thinks he's Jesus. ;-)
look forward to reading some of your experiences as an elder.
Take care bro!

I googled her...looks like she is a talented and I hope very succesful photographer in Detroit.
just found an interesting site containing old wt documents.. .

Why promote a site that 95% of people here can't read?
this information is from a friends co visit.
enjoy.. jw.org faq's.
do you feel that you are the only people who will be saved?00:0000:00. no.
I wonder if he put his pinky finger up to the corner of his mouth and pursed is lips after he said it.
If I had heard this even when "in" I would have thought him to be a Tool....I hate anyone with no compassion. This kind of S$%T needs to be advertised, advertised, advertised!
brother of the hawk, newly enlightened & gojira, recorded an elder's meeting on 5/7/03.
both does a great job of defending me and making the elders look foolish!.
thank you raypublisher/jj and jwstruggle for the awesome job you did on it.. follow up story was not recorded but we will post it here hopefully over the weekend.. enjoy, it's pretty hilarious how they try to control us and come after me on a work of fiction!.
marking for later...
PS: Have you thought of sending an email to these bonehead elders so they know they are immortilised on youtube?! bet that would make them crap their pants a bit. hehehe
today we are launching freeminds2.org.
this is stage 3 of a three part project spanning over 30 years since i left watchtower headquarters in 1980 and gave the 18 members of the then-governing body, including president nathan knorr and vice-president frederick w. franz.. the new site will be more blog/news oriented (and updated more often with articles, blogs and videos almost daily).. all of our previous sites, such as armageddonokies.com and watchtowerworld.org, randytv.com, exjws.net, and others will be incorporated into the previous freeminds site, which is currently being revised and converted from its joomla-based format to this wordpress format.
i am sure you will find it much easier to search for words, people, articles, and subject very easy.
Great work. Just some clarification though...maybe I am just reading the first sentance wrong, but this just didn't make sense to me.
"... and gave the 18 members of the then-Governing Body, including President Nathan Knorr and Vice-President Frederick W. Franz."
And gave them what?
Thanks, just wanted to understand. Sorry if I'm missing the obvious.

elizabeth smart: abstinence education teaches rape victims they're worthless, dirty, and filthyby tara culp-ressler on may 6, 2013 at 12:00 pm.
I have a ton of respect for Ms Smart. What a strong girl! Did she leave mormanism or is she just 'inactive'?

i have heard rumors about this but no confirmation.
if true, it is astounding.
Nope, civil war is not near. Conspiracy people probably think it is though, along with a number of other things, UFOs and an Alien Attack, Obama finally putting his black cloak on and removing the contacts that hide his red glowing eyes etc etc...If a civil war does break out, I will come back on this thread and apologize. ;-)

a us senator thinks a law enforcement agency (unnamed) may have known about the boston bombing before it happened.. a new hampshire state legislator has publically said that the bombing was a black ops setup.
this remark sparked immediate controversy and denial.. an ex-fbi employee is reported to have said that the two bombers were recruited and paid by the fbi (russia today).
In all seriousness. Is anything not a conspiracy?? Tell us some big events that happened that were not caused by a secret society or block ops sector of the government.
TWA 800 was a conspiracy
9/11 was a conspiracy
Boston Terrorist Bombing was a conspiracy
etc ect etc bla bla bla
Please list a few that were what they were...just a crazy person / people that just wanted to f sh*& up and kill....or just a mechanical failure at 12,000 ft.
No disrespect intended. Just curious to hear from conspiracy guru.
