  I am very thankful to my four beautiful siblings who all became apostates long before me, but were determined to not leave me in the cancer.

  I am thankful for a fulfilling, interesting job that gives me 16 weeks paid vacation a year

  I am thankful for a new relationship in my life that has great possibilities!

  Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

  To you what was the Watchtower Socity's biggest lie ?

  by The Almighty Homer in

  1. watchtower

  yes, what was the biggest lie that you can think of, that persuaded you to realize that they were not who they said they were ?.

  for myself it would have to be the year they picked as the destruction of ancient jerusalem 607 bc.. i have an assumption this was done purposely to coincide correctly with making 1914 an a important pivotal date.

  in human history, which by all factual evidence it was not.. unassuming and deceiving manipulation for self marketing purposes.

  What did you look like as a JW?

  by highdose in

  2. friends

  i was going through some old photos today, i found one of myself when i was a devout jw.

  it was really shocking!

  i'm so thin, my cheeks are hollow, i'm as white as the wall behind me, i'm standing hunched over, and in my eyes you can see real misery.

  alot of members don't have a flag or country name beside their user name, and well frequently one doesn't know where that particular person is from, tell us your country, state, county or what ever you feel like giving out.

  if you are going to post please at least devulge your country.. me, i'm originally from taranaki, new zealand via auckland.

  for the most of this decade i have been living & working in brisbane, queensland, australia.. .

  Pink Songbooks - Green Bibles

  by nicolaou in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  those of us who've been around long enough will understand the title.

  what we are looking for here are examples of the society's lack of taste.. for example, i'm sure our kingdom hall wasn't the only one in the 70's with dark brown carpeting that rose halfway up the walls and a nice trendy rubber plant in the corner of the platform!.

  nic'.

  I love that pink songbook! It is the only piece of literature I did not throw away. When I get together with all my apostate siblings we play the piano and sing those old songs (this is of course after 6 or 7 drinks) - it is hilarious!

  Lovin' You - Minnie Riperton
  
  Lovin' you is easy cause you're beautiful
