i regret not getting disfellowshipped/da'd
by Django_Unchained ini'd particularly like to stick it to the woman who gave birth to me by sending a da letter to her congregation, though admittedly i wasn't part of hers when i stopped going.. say i were to send the letter to her cult hall, would the letter be read during the announcement?
how does that work?.

I'm not sure how it would be sticking it to her. Then again I don't know your situation.

Oh I thought JWs were just a "normal" religion
by fresh prince of ohio ini have found that, since leaving jws, that few "wordly" people seem interested in hearing my escape story (although some certainly have shown great interest).
when i've mentioned that i used to be a jw and that i left, the reaction i've gotten on more than one occasion is a "oh i thought they were just a normal religion", and not only that, it's like they just weren't at all even open to the idea that jws could be a really strange and cultish group.
on these occasions, i felt a little lost for words trying to explain to people just how crazy jwism is, because there's so much crazy to tell about, where do you even start?.

Most people just think they are a little looney but have no idea the extent. I have informed a few people who have asked about it.

Is The WTS Building Beth Sarim 2 ?
by metatron ini continue to puzzle over the future direction the watchtower is taking.
it seems very strange.. let's review: they are selling everything off in brooklyn, raking in huge sums from that real estate and building heavily in a fairly isolated part of upstate ny.. why?.
it may be classified as a country club (legally).

They aren't prepping for any doomsday. They know they are full of it. At least the old crew believed in the BS they spewed.

slimboyfat... that's makes the Awake magazine all that much more amazing. That little pamphlet is getting smaller and smaller and it still rivals a college education.

I'm not so sure about the scientologists. It is actually a pretty small group overall. I think the last number I heard was like 50,000.

What's really arrogant is someone saying "I have all the right answers." I don't claim to have all the right answers. JW's are so obsessed with having an answer and their version of the "truth" being right. They can't see the irony that what was once a undisputed fact in their minds, could easily be replaced by changing doctrine. Then having the balls to come out and say they have the "truth" is arrogance of the highest order.

I would think Mormon's would be higher on the list. I guess they aren't totally isolationist like the JW's are.

What did the Watchtower really predict about 1914 ?
by Phizzy inin zions watchtower 1896 december 15th, russell's comment on an article in the n.y observer which rightly cast doubt on the imminent formation of a jewish state in these words:.
come, and that although palestine will again become cultivated.
and prosperous, to the jews it may alwavs be a land of promise.".

Could you imagine if the chance made about 1914 teaching happened during the time of the internet?
"Yeah so 1914 wasn't the start of the great tribulation... it was... it was the start of the last days. Yeah! That's the ticket!"
"Well where is Jesus? You said he was going to return in 1914."
"Yeah he did return... but it was invisibly. Yeah you can't see him. He's totally there though."
