  i am quite interested in something mike and kim said in their video when talking about why their you tube videos are being taken down.

  mike say's that he has being trying to tell people that the boys in pennsylvania are the real power behind watchtower - not the governing body?.

  These men are also the ones making big bucks in the form of wages/and or dividend pay-offs on investments.

  I note that William Malenfant has been on JW Broadcast , I think a couple of times.

  Out of the world, into the Truth

  by apalro in

  2. experiences

  for some background - i studied on & off as a child with a jehovah's witness who has been patiently working on lots of our family for more than a decade and never gave up on any of us.

  as a middle-schooler and a highschooler, my love for jehovah and any association with my childhoood bible teacher... faded.

  disappeared.

  Please look at jwfacts. Com

  If it's the truth you've got nothing to loose right?

  Except it's a cult that prays on the young vulnerable and unhappy....and you fit the bill. Everything you've achieved has been YOU 100%. If you think god helped you pass a driving test but that same god let 40 Phillipino jws in a Kingdom Hall die getting swept away in a typhoon, what does it make that God? Or the other millions of praying suffering hungry children?

  Happy 1st PIMO Anniversary To Me: A Look Back

  by neat blue dog in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  it was just about a year ago exactly that i really and truly decided in my mind where i stood and as rutherford would say "face the facts".

  before that, there was a period of about two years where i almost felt like i had a dual personality, vacillating between pro and anti jw, a very confusing, draining mental state to be in.

  and it all started over seven years ago in 2010, when i read "apostate" material on the internet.

  Only 144,000 saved in 2000 years?

  by LevelThePlayingField in

  2. beliefs

  so i phoned an elder in the cong and asked him: "when did the calling for the great crowd start, was it 1935?

  he said, "no, i think i remember a convention talk about 1950.

  " so anyway, i said, "so then let's say in the 20th century right?

  I think some estimate well over 200,000 early Christians were martyred.

  The WTS decides that a large proportion of those must have been fake and died for their fake beliefs.

  But all their guys now are 100% legit. Yup.

  Yup. I think Nero martyred 40,000 in one purge alone.

  But if you happened to be at a conference at Cedar Point, Ohio in 1929 you're automatically in, no matter if your the biggest sod out there.

  Leah Remini Scientology series might tackle Jehovah's Witnesses in season 3

  by jp1692 in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i've seen comments by some on leah's expose on scientology: aftermath.

  she actually won an emmy for this show.

  rumor is that she might take on jehovah's witnesses in season 3. .

  So, if she's charitable enough to do a segment about Jehovah's Witnesses, I certainly hope there will be courageous, well-spoken ex-Witnesses appearing on the show who are SHOWING their faces and are not seated in the darkness hiding their face with voice obscured like they are running from the mob!

  Some will be interviewed on screen...no doubt. There are enough of us.

  But....having obscured faces and voices interviewed will demonstrate to the public that it IS a captive org and that their many trapped awake jws whose families have been weaponized and used against them, so they fear to show their faces.

  Lords Witnesses - JW splinter group - latest predictions

  by dozy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  amongst the many jw splinter groups , the "lords witnesses" are amongst the more interesting / amusing / depressing ( delete as applicable ).

  the de-facto leader , gordon ritchie , was quite a well known jw in the uk in the past.

  there was an amusing article in the times about him a few years ago ( https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/the-end-of-the-world-is-nigh-its-name-is-gordon-g3qxf8w5fn9 ) firewall / free to subscribe.

  JW Stumper Questions - List You Best Here

  by pale.emperor in

  2. beliefs

  hi guys.

  sooner or later we're going to get a jw knocking on our door.

  just like when we were jw's doing the knocking, it's good to have a question prepared to get them thinking about their own beliefs.

  I'd say,

  Why is it in so many passages of the NT, when Jesus speaks he prefaces his words with:

  "Truly I say to you" or " Truly I tell you"

  So why is it when Jesus is on the stake talking to the criminal beside him he says,according to you:

  "Truly I say to you TODAY (comma)you will be with me in paradise".

  Why after so times using the expression 'truly I say to you' he suddenly adds the 'today'. Doesn't it seem more likely the comma comes BEFORE the today?

  Waking up to TTATT: Blessing or Curse?

  by Jules Saturn in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  if you take the red pill, you'll have knowledge, you'll be awakened, aware of reality, you'll have freedom.. if you take the blue pill, you stay in your bubble, wearing rose colored glasses, and feel security in an illusion.. taking the red pill isn't something that's easy to do.

  to accept that everything around you is an illusion built up on lies or half truths.

  but hey, it might feel good to be aware and break free from this illusion.

  TTATT The RED pill was needed especially because of my Kids, They are young and I HAD to get them out of the cult before their lives were ruined, at any cost.

  And the cost is high.

  I had to highlight this.

  Ttatt you are a beautiful, brave and good person.

  Marie 33 that video broke my heart. The opera singer who gave up her career . The 87 year old who had ( prolly his last) chance to sing in a choir. So many talented musicians who won't get to perform again, as they should, in this one life.:'( :'( :'( :'(
