Hi
by LucidChimp in
1. jw
2. friends
i've been lurking here for a year or two now (since i stumbled across ttatt and was stumbled by it), i even started an account some while back and asked a couple of questions.. but i never actually stood up and said hi... so hi, my name's jon and i'm a dubaholic.. .

i was "born in" in the 80s - and grew up on a liquid diet of cheap suits and revelation book pictures (i mean really, group after group just staring at the pictures while not listening, i must have spent more time staring at those pictures than i have any work of art in my life, literally hours at each lurid picture).

i "left" in my teens, but apparently lacking any kind of actual sense, returned to studying with a childhood friend from the congregation in my twenties (although i was never baptised, my entire small family were dubs, so i saw more witnesses than "worldly people" on a regular basis.. they love bombed my arse for years!)..

finally got it up on youtube...the title right at the moment is just "grandma" but it's going to change to "grandma pleads with jehovah's witness granddaughter.".

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zcpuj96a8lg.

we taped it about a week ago and my mom went into the hospital 3 days ago.

It is midnight ...just winding down....thanks Steve

Jw's: Who do you identify as the FDS?
by snare&racket in
1. forum
2. announcements
who do you think is the fds on earth today?.

barely any jw can point at a gb member by face, fewer can name the governing body, fewer know these men in person or can account for them as people.

not one person became a jw from reading matthew 24 and saying 'aha!'.
clarity

Snare ...I'll take a chance ...

there is No FDS ..it is a parable! Not a prophecy!

A parable taken from a book that the Catholics pieced

together about the 4th century. All made up!

Any proof that more JW's are leaving in greater numbers then before?

or is it just wishful thinking on our parts?.

Hi ........... We are conscious of the many newly enlightened

>

who join JWN. We are only one site, there are many more.

>

Although sometimes the rapid influx of Newbies seems to indicate

>

that we are seeing a whole bunch more than usual, and we are

at times, .... but to me it is not just about numbers ....

>

it is about degree .......the tenor? There seems now to be,

>

a much more dire force behind the exodus of the watchtower.

>

Truly like those folks on the sinking Titanic, running for the

lifeboats.

Here is a very well done video ... that captures the confusion

and disillusion of jehovah's witnesses.

Steve you may feel that way from your point of view...love

you to pieces ....but when you are 93 yrs old.....

there are very few avenues open to you!

>

Little or no energy left, almost blind, no power, no pull, no husband,

no friends....mostly all dead, no creds & pretty much invisable!

>

Desperate to see a girl she loved all her life ...they shared history

those two .. she needs to be hanging on to those memories with her!

>

Don't believe that..... just wait a few years!

>

Can't you hear the fear & panic in her voice? I can ....maybe

>

you have to be that scared yourself ..... to know.

Damn the venomous watchtower for teaching hate & shunning!
