  1. social
  2. relationships

  my dilemma...i have enjoyed a very fun and active dating life these last four years of freedom.

  most dates end by me moving on (always another fish out there).

  last fall i started dating someone i really like (as in i would like a commitment).

  10 years as an NGO.... do you honestly think they didn't know they were doing? With all the jw lawyers on staff... do you think no one asked about this?

  If anyone truly thinks the WTS did not know, then "I have swampland in Florida to sell you".

  They had already been used the library for about 40 years without being an NGO DPI it was then they were told they needed to do this to keep access (then they only needed to have the same goals without supporting the UN. Witnesses do have the same goal of peace but see Jehovah as man's salvation through his son, not the UN). From what I believe some access is allowed outside of this but it isn't complete access at all.

  Debator....

  I will first say I am not well versed in the whole WTS being an NGO (reading up on it). The "excuse" you are giving is meaningless, it does NOT matter if the UN changed their guidelines on accessing the UN Library because "JW 101" depicts the UN as the beast in Revelation. So the GB/WTS can "expose" the UN as the wild beast which is evil why conform to their guidelines??? An evil beast is an evil beast NO matter what.

  Top 10 reasons why JWs don't have the truth - please contribute

  by oldlightnewshite in

  i thought it would be an interesting exercise to ask everybody on here what their 'top 10 reasons why jws don't have the truth' actually were.

  maybe we can see some correlating views/patterns/ideas that may help us de-programme the newbies that come on this site.

  if eventually most people have an outstanding gripe/concern it'll help everybody understand the ex-jw mindset a little better.
