i have not attended anything jw related for over a year.... until last week when i went to our one day convention.. why you ask?.
i can do what i want i'm a grown adult.. ok...ok...so my jw childhood friend who i have not seen forever, came by for a visit.. i mentally went through the check list:.
is she pioneering and need extra time?.
One really nice thing you get when you leave
a cult is............you can do what you darn well
want to do! You don't have to apologise for your
decision.
Everyone has their own sense of what will work
for them. If you make a decision & it doesn't
feel good .......do something else.
The point, is do not be pressured to do, or not do
something. There is no timetable. There is lots
of time ......the world is not going to end.

YOU are the boss of YOU.......rejoice in that!
luv you all

that is the conclusion you must accept if you are a jehovah's witness as my wife tries to explain to me that even if what they are teaching today contradicts what they were previously teaching, they had the truth then and they have the truth now.
the difference is, they (the witnesses and the governing body) simply believed that what they were teaching at the time was the truth but when they discovered new information they adjusted their thinking.
so since they formerly believed it to be the truth, they were in the truth.. an example she gave involved people who once believed the earth was flat.
Good subject.......that must be the reason
most dubs can ignore the obvious!
Your wife may have point ........but they are
talking here about "god directing" them.
GOD! Why cannot god get it right the first
time!
*
They make their god out to be an idiot!
He just can't get it right.
*
Or he just hasn't got the time and says
"hey you princes & dukes ...look just tell
them ...hmmm well just tell them no
blood transfusions or I'll kill them for it!
Yes yes Thousands of babies & new moms
& everybody else with great blood loss will
die of course ........but hey that will make
ME HAPPY! If I can think up something else
later .......hey, I will let you know ....well
if & when I have time! signing off now, GOD.

significance of this?
globally, it does not matter, but it shows one thing: their cultish practices are starting to get more and more attention and publicity in even such remote and religiously indifferent places.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpseudmulho.

Tunn.....thanks for posting that, it is about time
this evil conduct of shunning is exposed.
The control that the watchtower imposes on
families & their relatives & friends is almost unbelieveable!
This needs to be aired!

Btw a big welcome to you here, we look forward
to more of your posts.

Oh ya ....and a few sacrificial lambs wouldn't
