The most inappropriate remarks from Jehovahs Witnesses
by jambon1 ini have a few which still either anger me, make me sad or just make me grateful that i am no longer one of them.
1 - "well, everyone is going to die anyway, so if it at armageddon then ce la vie" 2 - "the disater today at the world trade centre is sad, but exciting" 3 - (an elder) "when armageddon happens, i want to be at a window, watching it all".
sick, sick, sick!

I know, I was just teasing. :D
I definitely agree it was a totally inappropriate and uncalled for comment. I swear they will try to make something out of ANYTHING when they want to DF an inactive member. Can't have the congregation thinking you can just leave without punishment and ultimate shunning or more members might decide to do the same! -

How many Jehovah's Witnesses does it take to change a light bulb?
Twelve. They all live in Brooklyn, and they have to keep changing it every day for "new light."
Three. One to screw in the bulb, and two to knock on your door and ask you if you've seen the light!
None. They're always getting "new light" from Brooklyn.
Nobody knows, they haven't seen the light YET. -

My response would have been "Well, Brother Rutherford, I can guarantee you will never get a 'bone' from THIS 'hunk of hair'!"
As for the Elder who wouldn't visit your father himself but told your mother it was "her responsibility"...what a hypocrite! (Not that I'm surprised or anything.) -

My First Post!!!
by IreallydidwalkoutofaKH inafter a year of reading all of your experiences and expressions i decided it was time for me to start sharing some of mine.
hopefully they can benefit others, like many of yours have benefited me!
being raised in the wtbts, the jehovahs witness docrine and culture really was the prism from which all of my experiences and understanding of life originated.

I never heard the Smurf thing either, Hortensia. But I do remember the "demon-possessed" Sprite/Star Brite doll stories in the 80's. Obviously I couldn't have one. I also remember the warnings about yard sale/thrift store items possibly being "demonic". So pretty much...you gotta be poor but you can't get your stuff used for fear of bringing demons into the home.

LOL Hortensia...I won't do anything rash! :D
ldrnomo...I'm very glad I got out when I was still young and it breaks my heart to read stories of people who spent nearly their whole lives enslaved before getting out...losing children and grandchildren to the organization they themselves brought them into. :( *Hugs* -

I don't understand "apostasy" being the only unforgivable sin. The funny thing is...they say in the organization that apostates completely turn their back on Jehovah (God) and try to bring others away from him. Yet many of the so-called "apostates" I see on here are still believers in God, they just don't agree with the way Jehovah's Witnesses are being controlled, manipulated, and having the Bible twisted for them in the WT publications. They would have their members believe we're all just a bunch of Satanists out to drag them into eternal death. :rolleyes:
