  at least i am giving it a try.. i have had some minor surgery.

  nothing to worry about, but it put me out of physical action for the last two weeks.

  this gave me lots of time to think and browse this forum.

  "Library Card" Defense refuted

  watchtower 1976 10/15 632-6. .

  the "mark" of the beast would identify the one having it as belonging to that "wild beast," giving it full support.

  ellicott's bible commentary notes that the mark 'surely means the acquiescence to the principals of this tyrannical world-power.'.

  Does anyone yet know if the brothers in Malawi know of what has been done to them by the WTBTS and the difference of them and the Mexicans? Very interested in this as too many times in the past I have wept at the news of what was happening to the Malawians.

  Thanks everyone. I would love to sue him, but at the moment I can't afford the lawyers fees, and as it is when I was a part of this cult they managed by one means or another to get approximately $200.000, correct, $200.000. out of me. Enough already. I have told some locals of the remarks and I must admit they are horrified, they have known me in and out of the "Lie' for years. Things will die down I expect.Take care everyone.

  This is a very small area I live in and I am well known over many years.

  All I said was at one time that whether it was God's organization or not nobody knows as all big businesses need organizing as there would be chaos otherwise, everybody doing their own thing etc. As far as the FDS are concerned they are not dead yet and haven't run the race. So who knows?

  Common sense I would think!!

  As a loyal JW, what made you to start doubting the Watchtower ???

  i'm sure all of us were loyal at one time to the watchtower, believing in all of it.

  (some of us probaly hated it from day one as well but, ).

  what were some of the first things that happened or were said, that made you to start doubting it and beginning the loss of your loyalty to the organization ??????.

  The WT/UN debacle, which led on to the Child Abuse issues. We could not possibly hold up our heads after those two things.Romans 1:32 says that you personally do not have to do these things but if you consent to these things, you are the same. The law does not differentiate between the robber and those who buy off the robber.

  Mass Suicide Alert.

  by refiners fire in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  it seems that the anti cult world is extremely concerned at the moment about a group called "project portal" in brazil.

  apparently there are hundreds of members and extensive defections are taking place at the moment, and the group leader, one urandir olivera, is being 'persecuted'extensively by the media.

  cult watchers are drawing parallels with jonestown in that they fear olivera may lead his loyal followers in a collective 'beaming up'.

  To Shamus.

  Before we were DA'd a MS came to our house and on being asked if the GB told him to 'jump off a cliff' would he do so. The reply?.....Of course I would!!. If there was another Jonestown I wouldn't be surprised.

  All of you are correct in a way. She is in such fear of other JW's getting to know that she talks to us when in trouble. Her six brothers and sisters( all JW's) plus the locals JW's don't know any of this. I say everytime this is the last time!, but tears and distress fools me again. Sometimes I wonder if we are doing her any favours in the long run, or is it like giving money to a drug addict and saying to him/her spend it on food only. Saying all that she is such a sweety and needs someone to love her!!.We own a flat she can live in so accommodation is not a problem.

  My husband and I have helped ,undercover ,a JW when under difficulty. She is not allowed to speak to us as we are DA'd( questioned WT on UN). Last Saturday night Australian time she was admitted to hospital as an attempted suicide. She telephone me on the Sunday to go into her house and get her some 'things'. Begged me not to tell any other JW's that she spoke to us or asked us to help her!. She is now back home and obviously not speaking to us and crossing the road to avoid us. One time I got her alone and asked her how long she intends to let herself be in such fear and suppression. Her reply? Always, as she is afraid of losing her brothers and sisters(fleshly and JW's) and couldn't go through with what we have gone through!!. So much for loving Jehovah and His Son above all.I say to myself each and every time this is the last time I will help her but every time her tears ropes me in. Sometimes I don't know what to do.

  Sent 40 letters to Watchtower people( those who I could remember surnames) not one reply. Told my doctor and made it very plain not to send me to any specialists who have staff of Watchtower people. As I live in small area contacted members of the local yacht club, country club etc. Warned locals not to attempt to have my electrician husband(only one in area and has the States highest qualifications)to do any work for them. Speak to anyone when I manage to get to a shopping mall on the danger of belonging to a cult as we did. Made folders containing 3 documents(U.N. Watchtower and Media.) and the address of U.N. and SilentLambs. I can't think of anything else at the moment to do, but eventually I will no doubt!!
