@Billy - "They constantly have to replace their books, because they continously "apostatize" from things they earlier accepted as "present truth"."
Thank you for putting this in a way I hadn't thought of before; so very true. Thanks!

Tonight I disassociated myself - after 24 years - had 2 hour meeting with Elder
by Intel ini am now sitting at home.
my wife left with my little child.
my fault (i dislike the word "fault", but don't have a better one right now).. it feels strange, relieved and free, at the same time it was all very strange.

Freedom From the Borg!!!
by Mad Sweeney inhow does it feel to be free from the watchtower?
while you were in did you realize you were enslaved and/or mind-controlled?
now that you are out and looking back, what are your thoughts about the mind control you were under when you were in?.

depends on what sort of outputs you have on your video-card.. I don't have HDMI on my computer either, but you can buy a DVI->HDMI convertor for like $10 and have your HDTV as a second monitor.. really the best and cheapest options.. no streaming hassles, just a bit of HDMI cabling through the wall..

@BS - That is a legititmate mole search technique.. and the alternative of sending out letters to the body of elders with slight mis-prints - a comma here, a capital there, a fudge here. Send out enough of them, and you'll narrow down the source of the leak considerably..

The imperfections of the elder
by outsmartthesystem inoutsmart - you keep mentioning the imperfections of the elders....and how people need to overlook them because we are all imperfect and we need to learn what true humility is.....etc etc.
dj - if this is what you believe to be true, then you are mistaken, because even though jehovah's witnesses are directed by holy spirit, we have at times 'gotten it wrong.
dj - i can agree that jehovah's witnesses are god's mouthpiece today, that we do speak for god.
