  Who am I to screw up their happiness?

  that was the question to me tonight.

  because of their beliefs they have a moral compass, a net work of friends and a support group.

  they have what they believe is a loving god.

  I am not an Atheist, yet based on experience I've found Atheists to have the greatest set of morals and they have nothing to gain.

  Agreed, and that is prescisely why , their kindness is usually a well thought out personal decision.

  Eg. Pew statistics show less divorce amoung athiests than JW's. I guess because their commitment is genuine, as in some cases JW's will marry because they have to.

  Extreme emotions re today's watchtower

  i was supposed to attend the meeting today, one of my once a month duties for the sake of my family and my fade.

  i read the wt and i just can't stomach going.... what this wt does is again and again reiterate that only jws will survive the coming destruction and that they should be happy about this and raise ourselves erect...eg:.

  we cannot expect that many people will suddenly convert to true christianity.

  i dont think ill be able to leave the organization,you see i have no close friends in or outside the jws and my entire family is part of the cult,if i leave my mom and the rest of my family will be heartbroken and i dont want to be the reason they are hurt.

  im not particularly close to any of my family members but i still care for them.

  i could really use some advice because i have no one else to turn too..

  I would add that you are really young and there is plenty of time - don't give up on yourself leading a full and happy life on your terms in the future. Many teens are reliant on their families for their physical wellbeing and even their identity to some extent. All that will lessen with time.

  As already said by earlier post I would focus on a support network - friends, collegues, teachers - and some type of education. If it's going to be a problem reserve all your strength for that fight first, even making concessions to your parents in other areas if you have to but get that education if you can you will never regret it.

  "Fun-size", huh? Like from a fast-food joint?

  Maybe they're being more accurate than they realize. JW congregations are, for all intents and purposes, franchises, after all.

  Ha! They were...franchises that Watchdonalds Tower just stole all the deeds too!

  Mrmagic please or someone is there any chance of re formatting this post so that it is easier to read please?

  I've also made posts like this - does anyone know how to read it?

  Personally, I have family working in criminal justice/probation service & from what they have said I think it is not at all unlikely.

  Ok. The 'Good Samaritan'...he helped someone he didn't know lying by the side of the road. What would your mother say... 'Oh but my daughter left Jehovah!!'...yeah the Samaritan wasn't the same religion either! Deep seated religious division there...and she's your DAUGHTER. but oh yeah, what did Jesus say would happen to some? They would have no natural affection...

  hey stupid witness parents...Imitate Jesus. Actually religion has nothing to do with it. Be a FREAKING PARENT.

  I would so love to post this to your mother, the press and the branch headquarters ...if they call themselves christian it should at least prick their conscience

  So sorry you are poorly. Xxxxx

  Weird "new world" artwork from the 2013 calendar

  by cedars in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my mother-in-law has a strange obsession with calendars, and orders the society's calendar each year.

  this year's calendar is especially weird.

  it features images depicting future events - in particular, the society's vision of the new world order.. i've taken the opportunity to scan some of the images for you all to check out.. please note - there are captions for each of the images, but i don't have the english language version of the calendar so i'd rather just quote the scripture used so as not to reveal which country i'm in.. .
