What are witnesses taught to say if a householder was to preach to them in the ministry?
by LUKEWARM in.
in my experience, we were taught to respond with something like: "we didn't come to your door looking for answers or for the truth!".
given the magnitude of flaws one finds when researching the doctrines and the wts own admission of not preaching the original good news, how totally presumptuous and disrespectful it is to invade the privacy of anothers home to try and tell them how wrong their beliefs are and then to arrogantly respond in this way when challenged.

I have heard different ones tell householders that if they want to preach to me, go house to house until you find me, then I will listen to what you have to say.

I can hear my mother now explaining that one "People are living far longer now than they did then." No thinking ability at all, just repeat what you are told.

The WTS will never have ''new light'' on shunning policy.
by RULES & REGULATIONS inwatchtower society will never be blessed with "new light" on their policy of extremist shunning of former members, thereby liberating thousands-both within and out of the organization from the heart-sickening anguish imposed by this cruel, unjust, and unscriptural dogma..

If all those now shunned were able to tell our side of the story, imagine the exodus from that lying, decietful corporation. I agree, it will never happen.

WTBS taking care of older ones?
by roadrunner027 indoes anyone know if the society/organization is financially taking care of the older ones?.
my husband and i left the org over 10 years ago, we are of the generation where our parents came to the jw's in the 70's, gave up everything they owned, had no college education, and stuck to the usual janitorial/construction jobs so they wouldn't miss any meetings.
this of coarse means they have no retirement money and see nothing wrong with that as the end of the system is soon upon us.

semiautomatic air pistols
by megaflower ini am looking into getting myself a pellet pistol.
my reason for a pellet is it will not kill anyone but sting them pretty good.
we have been getting some undesirable's and they have been breaking in to my neighbors places.

WAC - SHOOT TO KILL
I agree completely, but Megaflower seems to have a problem with that. I was Just giving her other options than a pellet gun. I should have mentioned also that training is necessary. In the state that I live, you have to watch a video and pass a test before you can purchase a firearm. This video spells out the laws for self defense. Even though I have hunted and used firearms since very young, it was informative and helpful to know the laws in your state for self defense. I would even say necessary.

A pistol or shotgun with blanks or birdshot would be better than a pellet gun. It is the sound that will be most effective. As far as using something so powerful, it says not to kill, it doesn't say anything about blowing someone's kneecaps off. It's all in your aim.

Any Ideas on the Next "Big Thing" that Will Bring the Watchtower Down?
by jamiebowers ini received this via a face book pm from the group christian witness fellowship:.
also near the end of the show, richard rawe says "something extra big" is about to happen that will take watchtower "down," something bigger even than their pedophile scandal and the u.n. connections scandal put together.
he says he can't spill the beans yet, but the something is definitely coming.

I have seen as many "take down the WT" promises as the WT's prediction of the big A. While meaning well, and hoping for the best, these guys are the ones who give us apostates a bad name. Well, them and the WT.

Leec- Why does it make the people who write that crap feel better to know that perfectly healthy and normal teenagers are being guilted into a frustration that is distracting, stressful, and leaves them prone to the most difficult temptation to REALLY do something wrong
Start the guilt and frustrations early, much, much more in the future.

Is it all in the timing? Talking to my kids about baptism
by Aussie Oz inwell, the next few months wt study articles are on baptism.. i am worried for my kids.
if they go along with this, the likelyhood of them having to shun me are great.
even as minors.

Encourage them to do research on the organization themselves. An afternoon on the net can be very enlightening, and they cannot be called apostates if they are not baptized. Try to let them come to their own informed decisions. The sooner the better.
