Yeah Issac, I must not be one because I didn´t know those terms. I am SURE that the African, Mexican, Polish and other countries use BOE and Dub all the time... In a pig´s ear they do!

Why should I have to sign a letter saying I want to disassociate ?
by troubled mind ini don't understand why the elders want this letter so badly ....for one i don't remember signing a contract to become a jehovah's witness ,why do i need to resign ?.
also i was baptised in 1978 before the baptism questions changed , i dedicated myself to god not an organization .
my vow was to follow the direction by holy spirit as revealed to me through the bible, not the watchtower ...... if i belonged to the luthern church and quit going after three yrs they drop your name off the member list ........but if i chose to come to easter or christmas service everyonre would still talk to me i just wouldn't be a member any more .. .

Huge bunch of jerks here. Man....The elders are concerned about you. And you treat them in this manner. Look at all these posts. People can certainly see the difference between an apostate and a geniune christian like Jehovah´s witnesses.

List of Convention Titles - help needed.
by nicolaou inany corroboration on the accuracy of this list?
also there are gaps, can anyone fill 'em?
conventions.

BANE
If you notice UNTIL the 2006 one the titles were what I call Fluffy. Not hard hitting. The Deliverance at Hand and the Keep on the Watch ones are tremendously hard hitting. I think that tells us something. The end IS much closer or the titles would´nt be so hard. Maybe next years will be Armaggeddon is here! Or something like that.
The Organization always tells us good things.

FAO: Bane - You Mentioned the Eye
by cantleave ini don't want to hijack the other thread.. you mention the eye being better than any camera so lets discuss this.
i used to give a talk where i would use the complexity of the eye as evidence of creation, but i have since changed my mind and below is the reasoning that helped me do so.. i would welcome you comments and reasoning against this.. if you had a choice between being totally blind and being able to see things out of focus, which would you pick.. i'm sure you would, like me prefer to have out of focus vision, than no vision at all.. would you rather have vision that was out of focus and devoid of color, or be totally blind.
i'm sure you prefer the colour option.. how about if you could only see vague shapes around you or blindness?

Want an answer about the eye Cantleave? To believe that it evolved is just CRAP! Why do we show kindness? Is that from evolution? There is no need for kindness in a survival of the fittest is there? How about laughter? Certainly not.
If you believe you are from a monkey, that is fine. Stupid, but fine.
I know I was created. We will both find out in the end though won´t we?
You guys not only have lost your faith in God´s organization but now God himself! NOW you even think you came from monkeys! IF we evolved from monkeys, WHY are there monkeys still around?
Whatever....When a person believes in evolution he has thrown his common sense right out the window.
REad the original Creation book and the followup to it that came out a few years later.

Is the Watchtower an Apocalyptic or doomsday religion?
by jwfacts inimo the watchtower has a strong emphasis on eschatology and is one of the most prominent of the modern apocalyptic religions.
so i found it surprising to see the watchtower never uses the word eschatology applied to itself and claims not to be an apocalyptic religion.
startfragment.

BANE
So I suppose you guys think Jesus was apocalyptic too since he told his true followers multiple times to keep on the watch.... Or maybe he was a Doomsdayist?
GET A LIFE PEOPLE!

Field service reporting
by gutted inso one of the elders called asking for my time.
i lied, somewhat.
yes i did talk to people about the "truth" but not in favourable terms.. has anyone simply stated, "i have not been in service this month"?

DJ, So the Israelites could DISOBEY Moses so long as they were good people that showed kindness? Yeah right. If Christians were not obediant to Paul as LONG as they were long suffering it was ok then? Obediance to God is key but SO IS obediance to the older men taking the lead in these modern times SO long as what they say goes along with the bible. I am SURE it was strange for the Israelites to go to the red sea with no possibility of escape. Ones that thought they knew best and didn´t go most likely were killed by Pharoah´s forces. Obediance to Moses was MANDATORY by Jehovah´s standards.
Just being kind etc. with a relationship with God is not what the Bible teaches. You have to be obediant to his organization too.
Go ahead and GO your own way. We will see who is right in the end.

Cat, It´s NOT in the bible to move to upstate. So what? It is also NOT in the Bible to watch TV. Again, so what? You obviously didn´t learn from the Bible at ALL! The Israelites HAD to be obediant to Moses. Right? Hebrews says to be obediant to those taking the lead among you. INCLUDING turning in time. What is the problem with that? I know my hand cramps up severely when I have to write 20 hours every month...Yeah...You have every right to complain about something SO strenuous.....
1 Timothy 3 talks about certain qualifications we ALL must have. It says to be qualified to teach. HOW do the older men view someone being qualified to teach? Field service and giving talks. That is the only way to do it.
So It IS Biblical fool.

Really Maddog, Are you sure? http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/173039/2/IF-YOU-STILL-READ-THE-BIBLE-WHAT-VERSION-DO-YOU-READ You say here that the NIV which leaves out God´s name altogether is better than the new world translation.
If that is not apostate thinking, what is? You are questioning the old WTs aren´t you? Trying to hold the org to them no? You KNOW about new light don´t you?
http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/members/private/175418/1/A-Witness-encounter-at-my-place-of-work Then you encourage someone who is DFed to mock some of our fellow sisters. Is that not apostate thinking?
http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/scandals/176393/1/True-Full-frontal-Lobotomies-for-all-in-Paradise-to-forget-what-they-lost-in-the-world Then you imply that all witnesses have had lobotomies?
http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/176441/1/How-does-the-Annointed-that-survive-Har-maggedon-get-to-Heaven You really don´t know the answer to this one so you ask a bunch of apostates? Why not ask your Elders IF you go to the hall?
http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/bible/176447/1/Who-Do-They-Think-They-Are SURE you are not an apostate. You even call them Dubs here and mock the great crowd´s standing...
http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/176513/1/Will-the-sheeples-be-assimilated-into-the-anointed-Borg And THIS says it all. You openly mock Jehovah and the org
You ARE an apostate. I just proved it to you by your past comments. Freaking liars around here. Snakey apostates that PRETEND to be something that they are not.

why I like this site
by nancy drew ini like this site (aside from the fact that we have the jw experience in common) because i have come to realize that all of you are very creative, interesting & courageous.
it takes a special person to exit the jw's.
we all of course are also very different & thats good because we can learn from each other.

Quentin, You HAVEN´T MOVED ON! That is my whole point! You STILL come here after leaving the org for what...YEARS now and still talk bad about them. You CANNOT move on. You say you are not locked down but I don´t see that at ALL! You come here day after day to talk about something you were GLAD to be away from. YOU are the prisoner sir. If you truly wanted to leave you wouldn´t come here.
It´s like a woman that is raped. She doesn´t go back to the same man to get raped EVERY single day of her life does she? No, she may even move to a different city hoping NEVER to have the experience again. Not you guys. If the org was SO bad to you you would NOT come here to bash it every day.
You are the pathetic ones. The ones that cannot move on with their lives.

Cantleave, I am too dangerous around here. I can only post 10 times in 24 hours. That is why I cannot respond to you as I have made over 100 posts now and cannot get more posts. I think someone here is afraid I will...SPEAK my mind...I have belonged to many forums in my life and have NEVER had a post restriction like this one. What are they afraid of here? So now I am taking up one of my posts to discuss the eye here. I will have to see your videos later and edit these comments here.
