http://www.catholic.com/quickquestions/is-gods-name-yahweh-or-jehovah.

subject title refers to the link that i found in another thread, somewhat buried in text, but i thought it deserved to be highlighted.

take the time to read it if you can and just sit and think about it for a second, think about all of the hate and disgust jw's have for the cc and just let that truth settle in.. amazing really.

The effects and repercussions of a cyber attack on WTBTS
by Soldier77 in
1. watchtower
2. scandals
this is pure speculation on my part and i hope to get some others to join in sharing their thoughts on this topic.. with the recent push by "mother" to rely heavily on their site jw.org, correspondance to elder bodies, publication downloads, library access, imagine the impact an attack to their site could produce to the organization.. here we have the gb jumping on the bandwagon, late as usual, but still trying to grasp the internet, and saying that it's "okay" to use the internet, and when you do, please go to our site.

so you have a lot of people that may have been die hard, anti-internet because it's from the devil, now saying, okay, lets get a computer, get internet service and hop online..... that's where all hell breaks loose.

they log on the great world wide web and type in the "officially backed" website.... and bam!

How the Conti case has re-opened a can of worms for me
by Soldier77 in
1. jw
2. experiences
i haven't been one to start a lot of threads and i've actually been gone from this board for about a year only to return after the conti case blew open.

i stopped coming here because i had moved on with my life and really started to put being a jw behind me and stopped concerning myself with it.. my anger and hate of the wtbts had come to a simmer, i don't think it will or would have completely cooled, but then on one fateful morning i awake to an email from my mother.

i haven't talked to my mother in about 6 months as our last conversation was her spouting off how great of a time she was having serving where the need was greater and it was all about her and her husband and jehovah this and jehovah that.

I said I would do it and I just did, told my mom I want nothing to do with the org anymore
by Soldier77 in
1. jw
2. experiences
i would copy and paste my emails with my mom, but that would probably be too revealing.. anyway, i said in a post a while back that i was going to tell my mom i no longer want anything to do with the organization.

there have been a series of emails between the two of us lately and she was probing to see what was going on with me.

i haven't been out in fs in almost a year and i haven't been to a thursday night mtg in over 9 months.
