They are pretty good at seeing and describing their evil in others.
The Catholic Church is their favourite target.
And yet the Catholic Church could learns heaps about harlotry by simply observing Watchtower apostasy.

What has the WTS EVER "predicted" that has actually come true?
by integ inyou'd think they could point to something right?
obviously we're the one true religion".. i can't fathom how anyone of any intelligence would be willing to join up with this org after doing even rudimentary research.. for years they have taught that it's wrong to seek advanced education or to plan for a "worldly" future by trusting in this system of things and then this past sunday the watchtower article rips on people for not planning for the future in regard to their elderly relatives.
maybe if they hadn't been teaching for 100 yr's that the end was "just around the corner" and telling us we'd better believe that fact...or else, we would have planned better for a future that you said without reservation would not even occur.. what mind blowing prediction can they point to that would convince someone "oh yeah..these guys have it right"...?.

Where does the Governing Body say "old light" comes from?
by matt2414 inthe governing body claims they've received "new light" from jehovah every time they change their doctrine.
so where did the "old light" come from that's being replaced?
if the old light is incorrect, could it have come from god?

Any who dare to open this "can of worms" will see their favourite elders "suddenly" morph into Pharisees with big stones in hand...

The Watchtower have yet to take one of the first steps: admit there is a problem.

On Four Corners on Australia's ABC tonight (Saturday) at 08:00 pm, I was surprised when Archbishop Mark Coleridge spoke frankly with Kerry O'Brien and did what it seems the Watchtower never will be able to.
He identified:
- Clericalism
- Careerism
- Abuse of power
- A culture of secrecy
- A culture that is determined to avoid scandal
as being some of the roots of ongoing child sex abuse in religion (and the cover ups). At least that is what I took from what was said. A transcript is also available at this link:

Troll Accusations
by Frazzled UBM ini have noticed that some of us are a bit too eager to label new posters as trolls.
while it is clear that there are some posters who just like to stir up trouble or are out and out apologists there are others who are witnesses starting to have genuine doubts and so ask questions but then when they see the responses the cognitive dissonance kicks in and they push back and argue with what they are being told.
this can lead to very negative reactions from jwn members and accusations that the person is a troll.

When we give others the benefit of the doubt we can often be pleasantly surprised.
One imagines a genuine troll will eventually hang himself so to speak...

After leaving did the feeling go away?
by committeechairman inthe feeling that you're never good enough.
the feeling that you're wicked and evil.. .
because i'd give anything not to feel this way.

Fernando
Even before leaving the feeling went away for our family as we were learning more about the liberating and healing central message of scripture which religion had been hiding from us.
We'd be happy to send you a one page summary we compiled over the last 8 years. Just send us a PM.
This video is also a great summary:

A Good Question To Ask JW to Get Them To Think
by sarahsmile inwhy did you get baptized?.
what do you think they would reply?.
because it is the truth!

A good question and observation, sarahsmile.
The answer would never be "because I believe and follow Jesus Christ".

As a voracious viewer and reader I am forced to allocate most of my time to resources that are clear, concise and to the point.
5 minute videos are great.
1-3 minute videos even better.
Mike and Kim are setting a great example of how we all could one day fearlessly "come out" on YouTube.
Something like the many "I was a Mormon: Name Surname" videos on YouTube.

Worry Over Possible "Spying Elders"
by abbasgreta inthis seems to be a real worry for 'faders' on a number of threads.
the responses to ducati's first posting.
is a good example.

They wouldn't dare - terrified of hearing us talk about the liberating gospel of grace which they carefully hide from their followers and worshippers.
