Today's Daily Text - Being Uneducated And Ordinary... WTF!!!
by Divergent inthursday, march 3. they were uneducated and ordinary men.โacts 4:13.. in recent years, the spiritual instruction provided by jehovahโs organization has reflected an increased emphasis on simplicity and clarity.
consider three examples.
first, there is the simplified edition of the watchtower.

Haemaphilliac Doctor talks of JW neighbours cruelty
by Diogenesister ini got my fingers burnt last time i copied a post from reddit, but this one made me so mad i had to show you guys.
i think its possible that the witnesses antagonism was exaggerated in his child's mind, never-the-less any nastiness to a sick child is beyond the pale.
the hospital i trained in lost nearly every last one of its 500 haemaphilliacs to aids - i think around 30 survived from this era.http://www.modernluxury.com/san-francisco/story/when-doctors-need-doctors-after-dodging-death-sentence-looking-cure.

OKAY, GAME OVER! The number one reason the New Testament amounts to bunk
by Terry infor me, the dead giveaway is this.
jesus wrote nothing.. stop and think about that.. if jesus were the authentic messiah, his ministry would not simply be local.. his instructions, his mission, the details of his teachings would be too precious to risk leaving it in the hands of "men unlettered (illiterate) and ordinary (blue-collar yokels).".
jesus, were he the one and only hope of mankind, would be absolutely certain to write down with great simplicity and specificity the exact owner's manual necessary to rescue mankind.. never happened!.

Myelaine....2 things...
You are persecuting a fellow christian because he is showing empathy and understanding for someone who has been spiritually abused...you leave an unpleasant taste in the mouth
Also...can you choose to believe that grass is purple ?? When the facts as you understand them lead you to disbelieve something you cannot choose to do so.

I agree entirely with your conclusions, but a trifle heavy on "would's"
Like Hansel and Gretel, sometimes I too get lost in the "would's" :)
LOL!!!๐Terry I think you're Jesus!! You're a sight smarter 'n him at any rate!!!!

Could we ever see a GB member disassociate?
by pleaseresearch inwe saw it with raymond franz.
but do you think we could ever see one of the current gb members or future ones, make the same choice?.
to leave, and expose it..

DOC They were vetted long and hard. They are Company Men. They live like kings and they are not about to abdicate their throne.
Reading this just made me wonder if Ray Franze was the exception because he got in under the radar being the nephew of a current member therefore not subject to the usual scrutiny?

Fading is never 100% successful is it?
by nicolaou inmum phoned last night to see how we all are.
after fifteen years away from meetings and my old jw life you'd think my fade could be called 'successful' and for the most part it is.
.. my resentment at being lied to and having wasted over thirty years of my life has left me like a glass of water full to the brim, it only takes a tap to make a mess.

Our friends do the same though - they got their dog before they had kids but really it's their first child and he's "big brother" to the kids (so protective / patient / playful).
Me too...ours was very much " big sis"

Can't sleep either...Simons right 'tho, its there bubbling even with non witness family and the silliest stuff can set it off, and hurt like hell...
Or was it silly stuff? Some won't agree but I think it was an interesting subject to take your ( sort of) stand over.........no, actually any ex witness should see that whether a theist or not ...but for me personally the further along in my journey I go the less " anthropo- centric" I get and the closer I feel to our animal brethren the angrier I get with witness dismissiveness of animal kind, animal history (!)and particularly animal suffering.
I miss my dog who passed over 2 years now, she was closer more loyal and loving than most of my " blood" animal family xxx
Edit: PeteZahut ( Ill carry on)
mum: Rover isn't part of the family and I'm certainly not related to any Dog!!
Nicou: oh yes you are! I'm sending you a little book I know your gonna love called " your inner fish" by Neal Shubin!!
