i mean this with all due respect, i would like to hear from genuine people who think jw have it wrong and then what is the truth?.

i never really knew any until recently.
as a witness we all thought they were weird.
but the two faiths are a lot alike, except the mormons are really so much nicer than the jws!.
They are both still cults to be avoided.

in this jc the couple accused of apostasy, lay down some inconvenient and incontestable truths about the organization's teachings that leave the elders speechless - as far as them mustering any efforts to refute them.
oh and by the way, do you remember what geoffrey jackson said at the australian royal commission when he was asked about an inactive jw being called to account if the elders stopped by and find him celebrating the holiday?
don't worry if you've forgotten because the couple mentions it to the elders, you know, seeing as it's the very same reason why they're being accused of apostasy, thus proving geoffrey jackson's statements to be false!.
When you boil it down there is only one thing people get disfellowshipped for: You pissed off the body of elders.

i read on a jw forum that jw's came in for disapproval if they drove either sports cars or 2-door cars.
the reasoning was that a driver couldn't easily take fellow dubbies out preaching in such a vehicle.
was that ever official policy or just local nonsense from a grumpy po?.
And I drove it in service . . .
i just heard the news david bowie has died ,so sad .

Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction. Just saying . . .

Magnum,
How do you know what John says is fictitious? Were you there when it happened? I know I wasn't. All I know is you called him out and said you didn't believe his experience.
Me using the terms I did in my post were directed at John Aquilla, not you. I wrote them to try to be an encouragement to him. They were not a ad hominem attack on you, just an observation.

Magnum,
You must think it applies to you. Grow some thicker skin. About the pack mentality, I will just quote one of your comments: "I'm with slimboyfat and Wasanelder Once. and 2+2=5. Where are WingCommander, Vidiot, & sir82?" Please explain how my comment was wrong about a dog pack?.
A number of people have accused John of lying. They are the ones I was referring to. I am sorry if I hurt your feelings. But if the shoe fits . . .

John A.,
I really enjoyed your experience. It actually parallels some of the things my mother and her friends say. I am glad that your mother has a good son like you. Someone that her and her friends obviously feel comfortable around.
Try not to let the dog pack get you down. The know-it-all types need to get their own life, instead of trying to dissect yours for sport.

so went to the meeting last night.
i had not been to one since before the holiday break (3 weeks ago).
besides, it was our first meeting in the new format.
Is that the JW Tabernacle Choir?
