ya do know what THE most popular reason we leave WT is doncha?
by oompa innot sure about it specifically....but i see three catagories...and what do you think is the specific one is????
i fit in the first one...and you guys know what the deal breaker was for me.... (changing the bible to make it say what they wanted it to in the nwt...especially adding the name jehovah 237 times in the nt...or cgs....when there is zero ancient manuscript for doing so...even though rev says to not add nor delete nuttin...they added the name jehovah twelve time in rev alone....even though not a single one is a quote from the ot or hebrew scriptures!!
and that is not right either....how did we not notice that we have the only bible around with the name jehovah in the new testament.....sooo deceitful about that) (and that is the longest parentheses of my life)...lol.

Pioneers and Gas Money
by EXMS inas some of you might know, i was a pioneer for 4 years...two years regular auxillary and two years regular.
for any of you ol' regular pioneers...while in the ministry and you were driving did the others in the car group give you money for gas?
if it was only pioneers out, then of course no one gave anything since everybody generally shared driving.

Purple Triangles
by Lozhasleft ini'm just back from a trip to berlin...the trip was specifically to research the holocaust...anyway...we went to sachenhausen concentration camp on a tour and the guide was exceptional...a military historian...so he asks the group a question:.
" anyone know what colour triangles the jehovah's witnesses had to wear?".
" purple " says i without a blink.. i grieved for all who suffered there and for them too...so many people died there who didn't have a choice...the wtbs forced it on their members...and after reading rutherford's letters to hitler ....it makes me sick....sick to my stomach.. loz x. .
