  for me it was when my elder dad put brusies on my arm, drug me down the hallway making me hit my head and broke my finger which resulted in surgery...and then he blamed it all on me!!!!

  made me go to the meeting with my cast all druged up on pain killers and tell everyone that asked me what happened that it was an accident.

  f***ing loser!!!!!

  Are You Paul or are you Saul?

  by reniaa in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this was the same man at different times in his life yet he changed his name because he completely changed his ideals and goals too.

  both were extremely zealous, both thought they were doing gods work, both thought they were working for the greater good.. acts 8:3 (new international version)3but saul began to destroy the church.

  going from house to house, he dragged off men and women and put them in prison.. soul thought gods work was to destroy the christians but paul.... acts 20: 19i served the lord with great humility and with tears, although i was severely tested by the plots of the jews.

  Sorry Reniaa............................

  I'm like Murray

  Just a guy waiting for his coffee

  and pie while dreaming of the

  brown haired girl English girl sitting

  at the bar, engaged in endless chatter,

  and with me wondering what she would

  look like in the buff............................

  <blink, blink>

  Awake now

  What Was YOUR Worst Quality As A JW?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for me it had to be that i was trained to be judgmental.

  i'm naturally a person who doesn't believe everything someone says---just because they say it's true.

  still, a "good elder" is supposed to be watchful of what might "contaminate" the congregation.. so, it's time to bare your soul.

  Do you ever shed the Jw experience?

  by AK - Jeff in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i have been out for 5 years.

  my wife and i left together.

  she saw the sham long before i did - though neither of us could 'put our finger on' what was wrong until we read coc, found the internet, etc.. i believe my wife leans toward atheism more than i do - i consider myself agnostic of the whole matter at this point.

  When you heard "apostate" who did you imagine?

  by nbernat in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've always imagined a 60-year-old man with white hair who is really arrogant and grumpy with an evil look in his eyes, a very cold person who wanted to do nothing but ruin people's lives and was working for satan.

  i never imagined i'd be one.... ...that or a 55-year-old woman with gray hair with glasses and a very rude look, and smarter-than-thou attitude.. you?.

  Did people DONATE for the literature when you went out in service?

  by BonaFide in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i think i got a donation maybe once or twice here in the states.

  most of the friends don't ask for a donation.

  in south america, more people donated, but i think it's because it was phrased differently, we used to say, "you can give whatever you want for this magazine.

  WHO WROTE THE BIBLE??? RESPONSE TO THE NEW PUBLICATION.

  by whereami in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for those whow believe god authored the bible , this info will make you question your faith.

  very well done.. i would love to see how the wts would respond to this, especially after the new publication on the bible was just released at the convention.. maybe one of our inhouse scholars (narkissos/leolia) can back up this info.

  The new book released at the Convention has a photo of the current GB members

  by BonaFide in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i will try to scan the photo tomorrow and put it on here.. i read some of the book today, it makes direct connections between the first century and jw's now.. for example:.

  the book talks about the apostles and says, 'after jesus death, they took the lead, becoming the governing body of that time.".

  congregations of that time - jw congregations today.
