Their have been several for me......I suppose most is based on personality....
1. Jesus gave ONE....yes, ONE identifying factor for those following him: "....they will know you.....but they love you have among YOURSELVES." John 13:35
There is no love. And even less so among Jehovah's Witnesses. They are by far the meanest people I've ever been around. They gossip and slander like there is no tomorrow. For anyone to claim they are 'the most loving people on earth' is ABSURD in it's own right.....but for JW's to do it, its even more absurd.
2. As single brother (divorced) who was an elder, I got a 'dose' of the 'great sisters' in the organization. No offense to the ladies here..... but current JW sisters are the worst women I've ever encountered. In the last two years, I've been physically attacked (yes sexually) by 4 different MARRIED "sisters"..... propositioned for affairs by a couple more. That is just the beginning...... I seriously want to write a book on all these wonderful "Proverbs 31" like women in "the truth"......... if you're a brother, you're likely either in a sexless marriage or have a cheating wife. I've chaired more judicial meetings and 'shepherding' calls for marriage mates that HATE each other than I can possibly share. I've had brothers remove their shirt in the "B" school to reveal last nights beating at the hands of their 'wife'...................I've had servants wives flat out say "I'm not having sex with him anymore".................UGHHHGHGHGHGGHGHGHGHG.........I'm so glad to be free of these great 'women'
3. Gal. 6:9 --- "......... work what is good toward ALL (yeah right), but ESPECIALLY toward those related to you in the faith.".......LOL LOL LOL, ...... this is probably the most overlooked verse in the Bible......followed closely by James 1 where we are supposed to look after widows and orphans. WHO ARE THEY KIDDING............. people disappear all the time.........then we go get 'em and DF 'em when we hear they messed up. Its absurd how much we ignore these scriptures. Absurd.
4. PHARISEES: how does anyone with a brain not see that making people shave facial hair, not see certain movies (unless your in Canada LOL), not get vasectomies, on and on and on and on it goes (put latest pop culture item here, Facebook, Internet, hair dye, Smurfs, etc.)..... is not a direct parallel to the Pharisees who made "the word of God invalid by teaching the traditions of MEN."
5. Claiming everyone not a JW is going to die. Seriously.......... did we decide to skip Matt. 7 and Romans 14???????
6. Ripping False Religion every week: I'm still searching for the gospel accounts where Jesus gives talk after talk after talk after talk ripping the Romans, the Jews, the Pagans, the Samaritans...... basically everyone not following him. Was he as obsessed with a negative message as we are????
7. People dying now get resurrected: so why don't we all count our time by going into a Mall, shooting everyone and telling them "you will thank me later......." or should we just be praying that everyone dies before Armageddon so they get another chance???
8. KM School for Elders: the Bethel speaker told the entire circuit of elders that the GB admits they 'guess' at things and see how it works out. Yeah.....watershed moment for this guy.
9. Discipline: DFing is the cruelest thing I've ever seen. Proof its stupid????? when a person enters that room with the 3 bros, what are they most afraid of??????? .................you know the answer......and therein lies the problem. Jehovah or his Son never enter the equation....just 'please don't DF me"
10. Did I mention the gross lack of love? Yeah...... despite the articles, the Bible Stories book, oh, and GOD'S SON......we simply can't seem to grasp that we JW's are the BAD GUYS in the story of the GOOD SAMARITAN......... yeah........the ones walking on by........while that 'evil unbeliever' cares for a stranger and an enemy. SIIIIIIIIICK
