What was your initial reaction to finding out the religion is a cult?

by make yourself in

mine was filled with shock and anger but mostly anger.

it made me feel that way because i have never been lied to like that growing up in the religion with it being all you know.

.

I still don't know if it is a cult or not. I have been studying a year. I was and am still so grateful for all the hours that have been spent teaching me the bible. I suppose I have been made to feel special. I posted on anonther thread that I was horrified on Tuesday when a lady at the meeting shouted across 3 rows, why had I not been out door-knocking. I had been told I wasn't ready. She humiliated me in front of all the others and the hall became silent when they all turned and looked at me for a response. I stuttered a reply then left - devastated - feeling not good enough.

I don't know what to do. I feel like not answering the door when my study lady comes on Monday, not going to the meeting on Tuesday. Where in the bible does it say you have to knock on doors and fill out a sheet for every door you knock on and put in a set number of hours a week? Where does it say you humiliate and pressure people and make them feel guilty if they have work or family commitments?

Any help apprec.

Was the Circuit Oversear treated like "a god" in your Congregation!!!

by Witness 007 in

many ass kissers would put their name down so they could have him over for dinner......"okay now, they can't eat milk products,red meat, white meat, flour, sugar, salt, water...." .

I was there as an observer. I have been studying for a year. I think that maybe the fact that I am taking "so long" to study had been discussed due to the CO visit. At the end of the meeting a lady I hardly knew shouted across 3 rows to me, demanding to know why I was not out on the ministry. I am only in the area 3 days a week and work away the other 4. I had had problems thinking I was not good enough for Jehova and had only discussed this that morning during my bible study. I was told that it was Satan making me feel that way. Well that lady who screamed at me DEFINITELY made me feel I was not good enough. I left in tears.

Tbh it has really put me off the congregation. I would be more than happy to go out but I had been told I wasnt ready by the lady who studies with me. I informally witness every opportunity I can but maybe it doesnt count.

I did notice various members bowing and scraping to the CO, I saw him last year and he is a brilliant speaker.

Should the Pope resign?

by slimboyfat in

questions are being raised about whether pope benedict was personally involved in covering up a case of child sex abuse by a roman catholic priest.

documents seen by the new york times newspaper suggest that in the 1990s, long before he became pope, he failed to respond to letters about a us case.. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/8587082.stm.

that would prove the catholic church is capable of reform, no?

Why are there Popes anyway?

Celebrity JWs and exJWs

by Lady Lee in

there is quite a list many i have never heard of.

i've done this before but this adds a lot of names - a lot.

gregg alexander - the new radicals' lead singer; raised by mother papa dee allen of the 70s-80s rock group war.

Never knew Peter Andre was at one time a JW although I could have guessed it.

Sexual Frigidity is Caused by Feminism--wt quoted this author

by rebel8 in

jw
friends

so as not to hijack another thread, i'm going off on my rantangent here.. in the other thread i posted a 1960s wt quote about women having puny brains, being incapable of leading or making decisions, being ruled by their menstrual constitution and weak musculature.

blahbety blah blah blah.

if you want more gems, just google "watchtower quotes women" and read to your heart's content.. i got to thinking, who is this broad they quoted as a source, dr. marie n. robinson?
