  i disagree with the watchtower organization.

  i hate a decent amount of their practices, but i dont have enough evidence to hate the people behind the org.

  and i certainly dont hate witnesses, at all!

  Sad ending to a sad era ...

  by The Berean in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  while i am new to this network, the evidence seems to be overwhelming that the wbts is in decline.

  while many voice their pleasure at this prospect, it is in many ways sad for me:.

  it is sad that so many have spent such a great quantity of their early lives supporting a cause that appears to have been a waste of time.

  garybuss, you have a ridiculous and judgemental viewpoint on all of this.

  You sound far worse than anyone i've met as a witness. Your posts here are hateful and childish. It is sad you never learned from your experience as a witness.

  Is there a GROWING AWARENESS among Jehovah's Witnesses that SOMETHING is REALLY WRONG with the Organization?

  by BonaFide in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i hope i can explain this clearly.

  years ago, we all knew what a child molester was.

  but there were a lot of misconceptions, mishandled situations in and out of the congregations, and just a general non-awareness of the seriousness and pervasiveness of pedophiles.. not anymore.

  this thread was inspired by my listening to the band mastodon lately.

  i just find their drummer brann dailor amazing.

  other drummers who have impressed me in the past have been jimmy chamberlin of smashing pumpkins and dave grohl of nirvana.

  WTS are tax evaders!!

  by 1914BS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we all know that the watchtower bible and tract societies corporations pay no property tax or income taxes on donations from the kingdom halls.. yet they condemn other corporations for being tax evaders .

  look at this rubbish from their own web site.

  payers, avoiders, and evadersmost people will at least begrudgingly acknowledge the benefits that taxes bring to their community.

  all religions are cults - someone else is making rules based on their interpretations of a "holy" book. I don't need it.

  they DO mean well, most of them. jesus christ you people...

  they are GENIUENLY happy to see you there, because they THINK that associating with their cult will help you.

  THEY ARE MISGUIDED.

  i would venture a guess that 95 percent of them have no other agenda but to help you.

  Homsexuals---Do You View Them Improperly???

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  homosexuality has been going on since the beginning of time.

  many animals (that jehovah made) are homosexual or bisexual.

  throughout history, homsexuals have been reviled for their actions and their sexual orientation.

  Men are disgusting, cant even understand why women go for them/us. So to understand homosexuality is pretty difficult for me.

  but, it happens, and it doesnt affect me so i dont really care :)
