This is filmed in The Netherlands. It's just like it is.

What would a 3th world JW think of this JW lifestyle?

Astounding! How much do you REALLY know the history of the Jehovah's Witnesses? I bet you DID NOT know about this!

by park ave boy in

quick background.

a few days ago someone brought up an old new york newspaper called the "brooklyn eagle.

" during lunch i had a little time to do some research about the whole jw.borg and what i found almost knocked me out of my seat.

When it look likes fraud, it smells like fraud and it makes sound as fraud, you can fill in what it is.

It's no more then that.

Met the new CO (correction officer) this week

by truth doubter in

just want to share my take on the new circuit overseers visit.

first impression, he's a control freak.

he got up several times to correct the servants on lights, sound and speaker stand positioning.

They could be great Nazi's in the last century, with their Hierarchy acting.

I know some CO personally. They are not all stupid. Some are even pretty to talk with, to eat and drink with.

That was the same with Nazi's. Some were very friendly and charming. That was not the problem.

Their absolute Hierarchy and organizational loyalty is the danger.

$10 per pub. Money begging session last night

by StarTrekAngel in

last night, during our "christian life and ministry" meeting, we had a session on local needs.

elder opened the talk with a disclaimer saying that this was a reminder (cited psalms about how david loved jehovahs reminders).

he reminded us of how bless we are of having our own local assembly hall.

i have been lurking on the site for a few months and thought it about time i plucked up the courage to step out of the shadows and say hello.. i am in the process of fading after realizing all is not right with the organization i had trusted implicitly for over 40 years.

there have always been 'truths' i have struggled to accept entirely, even as a child, but was confident that trusting in jehovah, building my faith and remaining patient would be enough to settle any nagging doubts that remained, so i pushed any inconsistencies to the back of my mind and concentrated on being the best witness that i could be.. over the last few years, however, i have been preoccupied with a number of crises in my family and stepping back slightly from 'theocratic' activity has allowed me to re evaluate a number of concerns and research sources other than the sanitized wt publications.. my eyes are now wide open - i found things which have appalled me and left me feeling extremely let down and disappointed by people i had really trusted.. i tried gently raising a few subjects with my mum (who was baptized early '70s and still remains a staunch wt supporter) but she will hear no criticism of the organization.

i understand this because the best part of her life has been invested in the religion and to acknowledge it may have got things wrong would be to recognize the last 40 years have been a vain waste.

Gorbatchov

We took the same path. It took us 5 years, faded without much problems. Family is still talking and hanging arround with us. We don't talk about "the truth". We are attending memorial to keep it simple...

Welcome!

Thanks for the info, Barbara. Nice Bethel interview (the lady interviewing you is a little bit irritating...)

The WT has a lucky hand buying all that property, now they are wealthy and keep asking for money.
