Biblical Creation vs Darwinism vs Young Earth "Creationism" - "Remain Close to Jehovah"
by losthusband indon't know if anyone has seen this....... .
biblical creation vs darwinism vs young earth "creationism" - "remain close to jehovah" - youtube video posted by a jw from the recent convention.. it might just be me, but in the middle section does the guy say that jws should seek out knowledge.
and then say that jehovah has given them all the knowledge they need in awake magazines.. not much seeking required there.....try going to library......ooops forgot... they would find out the real truth then!!.

Towards the middle section of the speach, I just vomited a little bit in my mouth; couldn't hold it in any longer.
It is way too easy to put the emphasis on "we claim the Earth was formed millions/billions of years ago", unlike some creationists who are obviously WRONG.
What dubs will NOT HEAR is to seek knowleadge at the library and on the Internet, and find "evidence" that humankind was created only 6000 years ago, while solid scientific evidence easily proves, without the shadow of a doubt, that humans have been around for well over 50,000 years. I am being conservative.
6,000 years....what a joke......when is the "new light" coming out???

Elder "predicts" how many jws are going to live
by XPeterX inparents went to a jw gathering to read the wt for this week.a jw said that only 5 people out of 125 in my congo will survive armageddon and then that elder said: "no,not 5 people,maybe 20".
damn i don't have words for him.

Sadly, I remember that myself, about 10 years ago, I would tell others JW in my congo who I thought would make it through Armageddon, and who would not. I recall saying that over 50% deserved to perish. When I think about it now, I am discusted at me.

I am 32. I started to realize this COULD be crap at around 25. Accepted it was crap at 29. Now, (without getting into too many details...hum), I am catching up on things I missed during my teen years. And it's GREAT!
It's reading experiences like HB's that motivate me to enjoy life to its FULLEST while I am still good looking, in great shape, attractive....etc., before I hit 60 and realize my life was a waste.

Don't do anything stupid Diana. You are not alone in this situation, many here on this board know exactly how you feel.
Your mom's reaction is typical JW reaction....she thinks she's right, and to hell with anybody else's opinion.

What Stupid Things Were You Counseled For?
by minimus ini've always been told that i have a very good personality, that i'm humorous, etc.. one elder called me over and said that i was "smiling too much".
the other elders talked to the elder who counseled me and he came back to say that i should be like i was .

got counseled by an elder for not wearing a suit jacket while reading at the book study at a haitian brother's hot, smelly, steamy basement. Plus I didn't want my new suit smell like fried bananas....

ATTENTION ALL LURKING, CURIOUS JW'S, JW TROLLS, AND FORMER JW'S DETERMINED TO SAVE JW'S FROM THEMSELVES
by AllTimeJeff inthank you all.. it seems that we former jw's have excellent reasons to be be upset.
between being lied to about how russell and rutherford started this fruity little cult, having to deal with the coverups of pedophiles and other criminals, the mysoginistic treatment of women, being lied to about 1914 and the related date of 607 bce, the ridiculous and ever changing blood doctrine, being lied to about gb involvement in the un, the changed it once and now back again understanding of what a "generation" is, being lied to about when the end of this system was supposed to come, being lied to about 1975, being told not to go to college and instead explore the underrated world of window washing with the outstanding income potential it produces...... *panting* i am sorry, i am out of breath...... my point is this, (and i speak from experience): former jw's are pretty raw.
and thus, easily exploitable on internet boards by trolls.. trolls see this.
