  If the Jehovah's Witnesses were really the Faithful & Discrete Slave active today, they wouldn't be full of Bullshit

  by Finkelstein in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if the watchtower corporation and the jehovah's witnesses were really the faithful & discrete slave active today, they wouldn't be full of bullshit .. this is a logical statement given the history of this religious institute / publishing house.

  i said it before and i'll say it again, that the majority of the doctrines created by the wts were intensionally focused toward enhancing the proliferation of the wts own publications.

  this has been a constant underlining agenda for the wts all throughout the last century, the end of the 19th century and still to this day.

  Precisely why they work so tirelessly to convince their followers/worshippers they are not full of BS.

  Right up until I read "Watchtower"...

  Anyway it got me thinking.

  If a newspaper could print anything they liked and disown it a day later...

  What if we all got to work on a worldwide "01 Apr 2016" media campaign today?

  How do you feel about religion as a whole?

  by FatherFirst in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it just seems to me religion in general primarily makes truly bad people worse, not genuinly good people better; and in many cases has even made good people do bad things in the name of their religion.

  just curious, a personal poll if you will.

  what are you guys' current views on religion as a whole?

  I agree with your OP FatherFirst.
  

  For me, religion is the arsenic in the honey.

  Personally I have found what I've been looking for my whole life, in faith and spirituality, which to me are the very opposite of religion.

  ok guys, this is long, so i am sorry, but i think it is important to publish.

  this is a glimpse into a 4 page letter (love that song) from my uber elder uncle.

  as some of you may know i got tired of being in an email chain and finally lost it and lashed out.

  He can write a 4-page diatribe, but cannot answer a simple question?

  Like most JWs...
  

  Methinks something stinks...

  Has This Site Ever Hurt You In Your Journey Out Of The JW Religion?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this site has gone through many metamorphosis over the years.

  i believe it is a kinder, less edgy place tan it was a few years ago.

  i wonder how many people were helped versus turned off by this place.

  The majority on JWC I believe are just great, helpful, kind and sharing - especially the lurkers who would rather not risk being speaking up.

  It seems to help if one can accept that the minority do not represent the majority.

  2. child-abuse

  Flipper you have done really well.
  

  May you have the strength to keep at it and hit many more bullseyes.

  May others too find the strength and courage.

  If just one person comes around to TTATT it is worth it.

  If just one child is spared abuse it is doubly worth it.

  Such arrogance, deception and ignorance simply cannot go unchallenged.

  Greetings

  The "5 Pillars" of Witness life...

  by stuckinarut2 in

  oh, there is one brother that keeps prattling on about "the 5 pillars of faith and worship".

  - prayer.

  - personal study.

  "The 5 pillars of faith"?

  The irony of it all.

  The Watchtower has no idea what "faith" is, yet somehow manages to steal it from their followers.
