having only started to study with a jw she has yet to inform me of these elders, the book she gave me says a little, but after reading this board i see there is more i have yet to learn.
who are these elders?
i'm picturing a bunch of old men in velvet purple robes sitting around a circular table.
elders are just men.
some are good.
some are bad.
they generally mean well, just like everybody else in the world.
sadly they do have a legaslative role, and therefore if you join jws you ARE liable to answer to them
for your actions, regardless of the matters involved.
they dont realize the power they have. the ones that do are the REALLY danderous ones.
good luck.

so this is quite a tough choice.
i see it this way.
i have spent my life in the org, and so have more in commen, for better or worse than strangers.
surely then i will more likely have a better start with the people im used too.
your thoughts are sought

if the borg don't have the truth....who does?.
a question i've been pondering since learning of the deceiptfull ways of the borg.
once one has the "knowledge" of good and bad, as it were, that the borg are/have lied to its followers, been deceiptfull, misused others quotations to suit thier purpose, and misapplied them, as so very well brought to us by maximus{which by the way, max, have you posted your story anywhere on the forum?
Couldnt agree more.

can you beat these easy ideas?.
to advertise "watchtower society hides child molestors www.silentlambs.org" try the following:.
get a piece of cardboard or other paper, print on it the message in large red letters, place in back of your car-truck-van window.
with respect
this is a cruel meanspirited suggestion.
to upset people just because they are jehovahs witnesses on the way to an assembly is pathetic.
you should read ray franz and see his opinion of bitter witness haters.
you are not free from them you are still a slave as much as you were before.
jws are no worse than any other religion on the matter of child abuse.
if you were in ireland you could see the massive cover up that the catholic chruch does for their preists.
think again
