Is there a difference between a "wrong expectation" and a "false prophecy"?
by booker-t inas many of you posters know by now that my mom has been a devout jw for 40 years and just cannot accept the fact that i am no longer a jw and feel that i am being deceived by apostates and will be destroyed at armaggeddon.
well the other day we had another knock down debate about "false prophecies" and the wts.
my mom insist that the wts are not false prophets but merely had many "wrong expectations" the same as other bible writers and disciples of christ.

The issue isn't 'expectations' or 'prophecies'..........it's why they are commenting on it AT ALL.
The Bible clearly, succinctly, without a shadow of a doubt, says that no man should be concerned with timetables or 'end times.'
So why are they commenting on it at all? Much less for over a century?

I'm always amazed by these stories.
Who cares what they think.
Look at them and ask them to use the holy spirit that only they have to explaing overlapping generations to you.

Really bizarre part on the meeting last night
by stillin inon the service meeting there was a part covering a couple of pages from the tms guidebook chapter on warmth and feeling.
rather than coaching the r&f on how to make a school talk sound warm, it focused on the people that jws meet in their ministry.
basically, the part could have been labelled "how to fake warmth and feeling.

Dating
by d inas a ex jw i am cyncial to dating perhaps because i did not do much dating as a jw.
do any of you still feel this way?
i am not against dating but i am still that dating and getting yourself emontionallt attached is sort of a way of being in chains..

It took me awhile to date. I'm not going to lie and say I was an angel when I left the organization and started dating. I wasn't......I went through a lot of women........it was a repressed reaction to growing up in a cult and being married at 19. At 38, I went bonkers.
It's difficult to navigate. I wish I could say it would be easy to find a great relationship. It isn't. And it's made worse by our lack of experience. However, keep working at it. There are some fantastic people out there that are worth your time!

How do JWs Not see how barbaric YHWH is? Its what started my awakening.
by BU2B inif one reads genesis from the first chapter through the end with an open mind, it is clear that not only is it not true, but that god is potrayed as a cruel, petty, childish micromanaging tyrant.
if one continues reading the ot this is just further solidified.
how do jws not see the obvious?

Because the vast...VAST majority of JW's don't read the Bible or anything else.
They see a pretty picture and their brains are turned off.
If they actually read the Bible they would have many, many more questions......not just about YHWH.
JW's on average are some of the laziest people on this planet.

Today I Da'd -Twenty-five years ago. Regrets -some.
by Xanthippe inyes twenty-five years ago today we sent in our da letter.
some regrets, not about leaving the cult obviously, but sometimes when i read about people slowly fading and keeping in touch with family and friends i wonder if we should have done that.
of course it was before the internet in 1989 so we didn't know about people fading.. one day we were driving along and we had been talking about moving congregations because we knew something was wrong but of course we thought it was local.

I always love reading the stories of the fine people on this forum.
I have a slightly different personality.....I'm an all in or all out guy.....and I didn't care what anyone thought. After serving for an elder for well over a decade, people are still shocked to learn I walked away. They have left me alone. I didn't purposefully fade, but I dared them to follow me.
Nothing.
I was never officially announce anywhere but I'm more than open to those I run into years later that they are in a man made cult. I could care less.
It's funny that I still get requests to connect on LinkedIn or Facebook (when I had one).......it doesn't seem to stop JW's......they still see me as that popular elder guy.......but alas, I'm definitely not.

Feb 15th Watchtower study article.
by quellycatface injust browsing the jw survey website and looked at the above article.
i am constantly being amazed by the disgusting bs the gb spew out.
this time it's about all the people "slain by jehoover and how the bodies would lay end to end of the earth......and the birds of heaven called to clean up the slain.

Fear.
Fear of authority, fear of God, fear of the future, fear of making a mistake, fear of being alone, fear of growing old.....fear, fear, fear.
This cult has been preaching the same crap for over a century.
It's never going to change. The vast majority of those in control aren't exactly rocket scientists.

A Unique Web Site: JWlove.org
by Londo111 inwell, all parodying of the january 2014 awake aside: no, not so unique.
unlike the claims of jw.org, it is not the one true website that will solve all your problems.
in fact, jwlove.org will not be for everyone and i admit that there are likely other places where the same information is presented in a better, more comprehensive manner.
