  Dssynergy, (i apologise if someone's already given this reason, i haven't read all the posts).

  I'd say ' I don't feel i measure up to the standards of JW'S for various reasons and the more i study or go to meetings, the more i'm reminded of my inadequacies. Which is making my depression/anxiety worse.'

  If you make it that YOU are the problem not the WTS then hopefully you wont be treated like a LEPER/DEMONIZED/SATANIC/WORLDLY person, just because you can't stomach the BS anymore. IMO you should never live your life to please others.

  'Above all else be true to thine self'. Best wishes.

  the study editionof the watchtower for september 15th 2010, p13 states "similarly today, a governing body composed of spirit-anointed christians contributes to the unity of the worldwide congregation.

  the governing body publishes spiritually encouraging literature in many languages.

  this spiritual food is based on god's word.

  I'd like to see more from -V-. The WTcomments videos are what opened my eyes. And maybe a webcam set up for live coverage of GB meetings .

  A question for all Jehovah's Witnesses on here who truly believe

  by Quillsky in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  firstly, i know that there are some really bright witnesses.

  achievers, thinkers - it was partly my admiration for people like you that kept me in for so long.. "brother peter is such an intelligent man, he couldn't be wrong", was the way i thought.

  i'm sure others felt the same way.

  Scottmedeiros,

  You've read COAC you say and have seen the WTcomments videos, yet you say 'many' things you don't believe, and 'if' the org is directed by Jah.

  A genuine question for you. What bits do you believe still? What makes you think the org may be directed by God?

  For me personally (i believed for 30 yrs), as soon as i started researching the Org. And especially after reading Crisis of Conscience, my belief in 'The truth' evaporated instantly. I didn't believe anything the dellusional pensioners claimed.

  I've heard of many people who having read COC still continue in the org, excusing the mistakes made because of them being imperfect men.

  I'd like to hear what keeps you still believing some of it.

  Cheers.

  july the 25th was the most emotional day i have ever experienced.

  i received a big aplause from the entire cong., including a standing ovation from the bro's in the sound room.. everyone was so happy to see a young man who was only reinstated a couple of years ago give a moving public talk..

  Good for you giving a 'moving', misleading talk, based on bullshit WT doctrine.

  'TRUTH' is loaded language as is 'The world' or 'Worldly' for a start.

  Although the person my have been physically out of the ORG, mentally they were obviously still under WTS indoctrination.

  Gubberningbody. Are you for real or being sarcastic?
