  PROVERBS (of former JW's)

  by AllTimeJeff in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one of the books from the bible i still value is proverbs.

  it's a collection of wise observations of life.

  it causes me to think, which is a good thing.. however, i also know that among us former jw's are life lessons that can be reduced to that of a proverb.

  Truth & fallacious arguments

  by Luo bou to in

  i used to believe that the brothers that lead the org were sincere seekers of truth.

  sure they made mistakes but they were doing their best and i could trust them.

  then i learned about fallacious argumentation and found that the wt was full of it... circular reasoning,straw man ,ad hominem etc.

  Do Jehovah’s Witnesses shoot their own wounded?

  i was disfellowshipped when i was going through my first bipolar episode.

  several months before being disfellowshipped, i started to develop the symptoms of bipolar disorder: rapid thoughts, sleepless nights, etc., until i finally started having delusions.

  i began to think i was jesus (literally) so i was disfellowshipped for apostasy.

  My ex is bipolar and had the courage to seek medical help despite the fact it was frowned upon by the Org and her peers. One time she was suicidal and took an overdose.. told me what she had done and finished up in hospital. I rang her psych for advice etc and knowing the possible consequences did not involve the Elders. Later after she tried again.... she did not tell me but instead she told an Elder. He kept it to himself and did tell me. I knew her history. I was her husband. Can you imagine the possible consequences of this ignorant bastard withholding this information.

  i just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone on the board.

  i haven't been here that long but from the time i've spent here, i feel very comfortable.

  i've been on boards before (witness ones) where everyone is so opinionated, heartless and holier than thou....but this one is so different.

  They belittle and put down and justify themselves with going 'by the bible'.

  Comes I believe from having no sense of personal worth so they try to gain it at the expense of others.......... Anyway that's another topic......... Welcome girl and if anyone belittles you here I, and I'm sure many others, will stick up for you.

  provided the practice of that belief doesn't harm other people

  This board would not exist if the Jw cult was not harmful. And what can we do about it legally...nothing ...because the courts refuse to get involved ...thanks to the sacred cow "freedom of religion" Any secular organization would be held accountable. The Russian Gov seem to understand the threat of unbridled WT propaganda and want to protect their citizens... I say good on them

  Can someone explain this to me in super layman's terms? I don't really get it - they're complex!

  Don't feel bad Greenie thats the whole idea..... Make your head spin trying to understand what the fuck their talking about..... Give up ....Tell youself this is really deep spiritual food.. and accept their conclusions. Used to happen in my day with Fredies rantings

  A Message Re A Very Interesting Scripture...

  to the household of god, israel, and all those who go with... may you have peace!.

  i was flipping through channels sunday morning and came across a show entitled "jewish jewels.

  " now, ordinarily, i don't even give such shows any time, regardless of the religion - i would rather be "fed" directly by our faithful and discreet slave, christ.

  too cut a long story short i left the truth and my wife left me after asking her for a divorce.. .

  a few days later i found a packet of condoms (one was missing) hidden in her possessions.

  if i presented this to her local body of elders would they consider judicial action?.

  because i have carefully looked over every picture and representation i can find of the so called paradise earth published in the last 30 years.

  there are people in all sorts of clothing from many cultures, american casual, african, asian, hispanic, and others.. but i have not seen a single image that shows you kilt wearers will make it into the new systemtm!.

  does that make you so angry that your sporran stands on edge?.

  Could be that the GB consider the Scots not wearing underpants immodest and a bad example
