New ex-JW memoir coming out...
by brizzzy ini don't post a ton here because i'm kinda shy.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/0373892357?tag=thegirsguitoh-20&camp=14573&creative=327641&linkcode=as1&creativeasin=0373892357&adid=038ez4bjpam7bcsze5mq&.
that's the amazon link (which is currently the most affordable, i believe, but it's also available for preorder at b&n, borders, indiebound, and indigo-chapters if you're in canada, if you prefer one of those retailers).. .

MS - People aren't offered scholarships. You have to apply for them and you might or might not be awarded one. You MIGHT be offered an application for a scholarship, as in, "here, you ought to fill out this application for a scholarship."
So true but the average, elderly, born-in JW don't know this because of their limited education.

Toxic Relationships
by serenitynow! ini have had it with my mother.
i've spoken on the board before about her.
she is fanatically religious, often keeps me on the phone for hours while she talks endlessly about the bible.

Hugs to you Serenity. You may not think so but it took a lot courage to express yourself to your mother. Most perps claim forgetting about past abuse or are just indifferent. They don't want you to acknowledge the past either.
The book Toxic Parents addresses this and also the book Emotional Blackmail. I hope you can come to a peaceful place in your relationship with your mother.

Why would abandoning 1914 mean they are not chosen by God?
by InterestedOne ini've read here that if the wt admits 607 is wrong or if 1914 is wrong, the logical result is that god did not choose them as his org.
can someone explain to me how that logically follows?.
couldn't they just say, "we have received new light on that, have learned that we cannot give a specific date (like how they abandoned 1935), but look, we adhere to the bible more strictly than anyone else, we strive to 'keep the cong clean' more than any other group, etc., so therefore, we must be chosen by god as his only org.

IO - "why the exact date is required" and "Why does the exact date bring everything crashing down?"
The WT requires, by their own calculations, that in 1914 Christ arrived (not the original prediction btw) and that 3 1/2 years after that in 1919, Christ chose them as the FDS out of all the religions. The WT sticks with the calculations that add up to 1914 even though secular evidence shows that Jerusalem was destroyed 586/587. They will lose credibility and authority if they start tinkering with their calculations now.
