I don't wear a mask. Never have. I've been licking shopping cart handles trying to get the rona. No luck. It's a joke and hoax designed to destroy small business economy. Created by Chicoms and weaponized by the lib parties.

What JW Subjects Interest You The Most On This Site? What Doesn’t??

by minimus in

jw
friends

i like subjects that delve into the history of the religion and proofs that the witnesses are not the true religion.

i’m not so much into apologists saying we need to go to meetings, especially if the poster looks like a scammer trying to get ex jws going.

what subjects interest you ?

I have mostly come here to escape politics. If I want politics I have dozens of sites to go to.

I've been on this site for ~20 years under various names. My favorite topic is what the current JW policies are. My parents are still active JW's (Dad a PO for many years). I've been DA for about 30 years and find it fascinating how their attitude and treatment of me changes over the years. I come here to inquire and find out how the policies have changed. Right now it appears to have gone much more liberal than the past. I visit them often and they even call me from time to time. That used to be a no, no.

I also am intrigued by input from former (and current) Bethelites, CO's and Elders.

When I got df'd back in 1980 I was standing on the porch with 2 elders that gave me the news. My room mate put this on at volume eleven. I started laughing and I could even hear the elders talking. https://youtu.be/_Eq-AD9SpSk

Would You Ever Go Back To The Witnesses??

by minimus in

friends

every once in a while you hear people say they actually “miss” their old witness friends and or family.

some would have even stayed in the organization if they became a bit more liberal and open minded.

Spiral: Ditto. The dude that df'd me was shooting daggers through me with his eyes when I showed up with my new wife who was casually interested in my former religion. That was over 20 years ago and haven't been back since except for funerals.

Were You Willing To Die For Jehovah?

by minimus in

jw
friends

we were supposed to be dedicated unconditionally to jehovah god.

we were willing to be persecuted to the death if need be.

if it came to taking a blood transfusion or dying, we were loyal to jehovah and would be a martyr for god.

badcompany

I'm not sure anyone can answer the question for yourself or your children until that time comes if your a die hard dub.

I don't know if dubs still carry the blood card BUT an MS friend of mine had the best answer. "No blood transfusions....but for God's sake, don't let me die!"

The Apology Tour

jw

everyone seems to be hitting the apology circuit.

if you ever said anything inappropriate or what might be considered offensive, then you must apologize.

if you possibly could have hurt someone’s feelings, you need to say sorry.

Calling All Who Were JWs Between 1967 and 1980

hello jwn,.

to introduce myself, i am still in the jws but learned ttatt some months ago.

i now ask this question to get more info on a past teaching.. between 1967 and 1980 was when the 'current understanding' of the wts was that organ transplants were cannibalism, and thus abhorrent.

badcompany

Baptized '71. DF'd '80. You'd be out on your ear in a heartbeat on 2 counts (blood and cannibalism). I think Garg is on to something there with the orifice confusion. That goes on to this day.

I just spoke to my Dad who's been an elder since ~'72 and still is. He told me about a meeting he just had about KH annual maintenance. Whoever led the meeting (not sure who) announced the world leaders in RE locations owned:

> 4. Starbucks

> 3. McDonalds

> 2. Subway

> 1. JW's

Having a hard time believing that considering JW penchant for cooking the books. He was very excited about the amazing growth of the org. A stark contrast from what I hear on this and other sites as well as my own observations. I live in a very urban area. I can walk to a dozen Starbucks, Subway or McD's from my house but I couldn't tell you where a KH is.
