one distinct danger is a distorted view of the good old days.

our memory.

Everything has to be gloom and doom with them. A happy memory may weaken their faith.

Shun vigorously all pornography
Should they really be using the word vigorously when referring to porn?

i have neither friends nor family to turn to.

the result of being born in a cult.

but i need to talk about this.

Jonathan, I am so very sorry!!!
I would insist your wife find new employment if she wants the marriage to work.
I've been working full time and going to school full time
I am sure your wife is very lonely (not making excuses for her though)

Jehovah's Witnesses - A Child's Story.

millions of children have grown up as jehovahs witnesses.

lets start from the very beginning.. i owe my life to jehovahs witnesses.

more important than what he was saying was who he was.

SST- Thank you so much for sharing your childhood with us. It was a very sad way to grow up for those of us who had two parents that developed their personalities after Rutherford.
Looking forward to more of your posts.

Outright Misrepresentations of Quotes and Citations in Watchtower Literature
by Londo111 in
1. watchtower
2. bible
the research of doug mason, annomaly, and others have been eye opening in regards to the society's recent articles on 607 bc.

what i find most disturbing is the misrepresentations of scholars, who are quoted in such a way to say one thing, when they meant something completely different.

it is one thing to teach a doctrine, and quite another to play fast and loose with the truth.

i would love to get the input of other people on this matter.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL OF YOU!
