I remember the canned phraze, "We miss you, We love you." when you miss a couple of meetings. Really they were saying: " You shouldn't be missing the meetings, the field service, the contributions, etc.

Last Nights Mtg. "Demonstrate Personal Interest" (New Bible Students Beware)
by WalkTall insometimes it just hits you how cold and unfeeling this religious corporation is.. last night there was a part in the kingdom ministry about helping new bible studies.
in one paragraph it mentioned how the new student might cut ties with former associates because they are not living by bible principles.
it says that their families might disown them.

AK-JEFF. More important than personal prayers, request's etc. is the one and only King of all prayers. The Our Father Prayer! What happened to it? Thousands of years and untold number of persons has begged, pleaded,and cried out, for it's fulfillment. The key request, "THY KINGDOM COME". Why thousands of years to answer?
You and I know the answer to that one, don't we?
Walkin, gave up praying to an invisible person.

Does anyone find it too painful to read the WTS publications?
by dissed inbeen out 13 years and even for research purposes, i find it way too painful to read this wt stuff.. and why?.
all the painful memories it brings back.
don't misread me, it has nothing to do with a guilty conscience.. it has to do with the real pain, the anger of being ripped off and lied too by the wts, the anger of seing how they have protected child molesters, sacrificed its followers by refusing blood transfusions, the treacherous way we and others were treated by the 'unloving brothers'.

Why I could not read between the lines back then was the "CARROT" was blindsiding me. But now, the "Comments You Will Not Hear" articles from Blondie have demolished the carrot and I can read between the lines.

Is the Bible Really Scientifically Accurate?
by FreeAtLast1914 inthe society (and others) love to quote job 26:7 where it says that "[god] suspends the earth over nothing" and isaiah 40:22, where it speaks of "the circle of the earth".
they use these scriptures to boast about the incredible scientific accuracy of the bible, proving god had a direct hand in everything written in it.. the trouble is that elsewhere in the scriptures, opposing views are put forth explaining then-unexplainable physics and geographical notions.
one is job 26:11: "the pillars of heaven tremble.

Sciences changes as knowledge grows through observation. Science can only be accurate as the facts are revealed.

The more new versions are translated the more it is modern man that is changing what is written from generation to generation. Nothing to do with a god.

After some 30 odd years as a Watchtower Slave. After giving my youth, my strength, my family, my money, my time and receiving nada, nothing in return, I think I am better off since leaving "The Lie."

Praying for holy spirit
by JWinprotest insince i'm in a complaining mood, i'll just throw one more in there.. one of the brothers praying at my circuit assembly said, "jehovah may your holy spirit continue to operate on the faithful and discreet slave.".
i thought, what a stupid thing to pray for.
if these guys are already ordained by god, why would we have to pray to god to ask him to continue supplying them with holy spirit, by their standard these guys should never lose it.. alright, that's it for today.. .
