Did You Ever Get Screwed By A Jehovah's Witness?

by minimus in

witnesses are supposed to be the "most honest people in the world".

most jws i know of do not put business deals in writing.

they simply "trust their brother".

Amelia Ashton

Yes, and I am still paying the price for it now!

the annual meeting of the governing body of jehovah's witnesses will be in october 2014.. .. in november 2013, just after the last one they published this now famous statement in the 15th of november 2013 watchtower page 16 paragraph 17 says:.

"at that time, the lifesaving direction that we receive from jehovahs organization may not appear practical from a human standpoint.

all of us must be ready to obey any instructions we may receive, whether these appear sound from a strategic or human standpoint or not.".

I doubt it. Not in the real world anyway.

2014 Release: God's Kingdom Rules. - The Generation Game continues

by truthseeker in

i really didn't want to add yet another change to my generation chart i produced a few years ago, but on reading this chapter in the new book on overlapping generations, it ocurred to me that they really are trying to pull the wool over our eyes.. .

how can the governing body really believe this?

how can they expect any intelligent person to just swallow this without complaint?.

MsTruthSeeker2014. It should be on JW.ORG

JW.ORG jewellery and pendants?

by stuckinarut2 in

how long will it be before witnesses start getting jewellery made up with jw.org as the pendant?.

can you imagine a nice gold neck chain, with a diamond jw.org hanging from it?.

or a small ring with the logo on it?.

Amelia Ashton

There is a JWvictims.ORG website. :)

It made me cry.

These people have so little real happiness in their lives that this video needs to go viral and make them realise that fun is allowed and the KH will not be struck down by Jah for using it for "entertainment".

The Complete Scammer's Guide - by "Pastor" Russell (New Light!)

by Focus in

jw
friends

most of us are reasonably familiar with reports of scandalous goings-on of that old jellyfish lecher, the founder of the watchtower cult, the one and only charles taze russell.. but, are these stories true?.

this thread is going to be devoted to his allegedly scurrilous activities.

so, bookmark it, please, bro' focus is in possession of noo light, and we're going to explore russell like you've never seen him explored before.. we're approaching his 100th death anniversary, and for all i know this virtual exhumation may lead to a real one.

Wow! Keeping this article for my WT scrapbook, or perhaps I should change the name to my JW.ORG scrapbook.

Who Donates Blood For Jehovah's Witnesses That Accept Blood Fragments?

by SanLuisObispoTruthSeeker in

the elders say "its very wrong to donate blood because you never know what the medical community is going to do with that blood.

" i asked one of the brothers who is a consultant at one of the medical centers, "why are we allowed to take blood fragments if were not allowed to donate blood?

" he/she refused to answer, just shook their head and walked away all red faced!

Amelia Ashton

They try to justify taking from non JWs but not giving especially if it is to a non JW.

Good Samaritans they are not.

j.worg.

Amelia Ashton

They have pins with the logo JW. ORG now so to get one with J.WORG would be funny.

i am not talking about posters here on this board ( otherwise i wouldn't be here would i) but in general.. si i am talking those ex j.ws in my community and we just dont get on.

well ok its a bit of an exaggeration to say i don't get on with them, we just dont associate.

this botherd me at first as i thought we would have much in common, but it wasn't so, and it's just the way it is.

Amelia Ashton

My exjdub friends are now my family and apart from my children I love them more than any other people on this planet.

Has anyone ever saved another persons life?

by LogCon in

jw
friends

i don't mean you advised them and they changed their lives around, kind of saving a life.. i mean right before your eyes, right now, you had to do something to save a person or they would be dead.. how did it make you feel?

did it have any affect on you?.

forty years ago i was working on a construction site and a back-hoe had loosened a large boulder.

Amelia Ashton

I saved a woman who couldn't swim from drowning. The current was so strong though that by the time I managed to get us both to shore we had been swept along the coast half a mile and she was unconscious. As soon as I was able to stand I started yelling for help and some German men sunbathing heard me and helped get her onto the grass. I thought we were both going to die because everytime I managed to get us to the surface another wave crashed over us forcing us down again and even when I managed to get to the surface there was so much surf in the air I was breathing it in.

One of the worst experiences of my life!
