  hi, just wanted to say hello.. i have my beliefs, my views, my opinions.

  i hope people respect them, and do not hate me for my beliefs.

  Cofty, why don't we focus on welcoming Starous and offering our support through this difficult transition.

  There will be plenty of time for you to browbeat him with your philosophies another time.

  I'm with you on that, Stauros. I don't presume to know how or in what overlapping generation it will come, but I do believe God has set a time to remove the old and insert the new.

  Welcome to the forum. I hope you find what you need here and are able to ignore what you don't.

  So, The Entire Governing Body Could Go Apostate?

  by metatron in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i made an effort to plow thru the latest bullsh*t from the wts in regard to the faithful slave, etc.

  i must admit that, their latest set of interpretations make more sense than formerly.

  they seem to have done away with 4-6 different 'comings' of jesus and they pretty much stuck everything in the future, so they are off the hook in the present.

  According to what I was taught in the 1960s the current GB are apostate to those older teachings.

  I can just hear GB members trying to pull a fresh batch of light out of the oven, accidently quoting the July 15, 2013 Watchtower as if it still applied:

  "Oh puh-leeze, Samuel! That was SOOoooo two weeks ago!"

  In case you were wondering, you are part of a tidal wave of people waking up and asking the very same questions. You are not alone. You are surrounded by people who understand. We've been there and we're ready to walk along with you at your pace, your direction.

  Welcome to the board, Suspicious.

  Circuit Overseer sign up sheet

  by A question in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  everyone knows that people sign up to have the co over for lunch wed. through fri. but in your area, did they (even privately, outside of a sign up sheet) also invite him over sometimes for dinner as well, at all?

  is this something that varies by co?.

  That would be exhausting. Having to be a guest in, essentially, a strangers house for almost every meal. There is no way I could put myself through that.

  For God's sake... where would I go to fart.?

  I am free

  by new hope and happiness in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  yes the title of my first post was a little negative " shatterd faith" and the truth is i dont feel like that at all.. its wonderful being in a state of not knowing as it makes hope possible.

  and what i now learn i will learn from within and also enjoy doubt.. so why do i call this post " i am free"?

  because i will no longer allow a tiny few control the direction of my life.

  Steve, you old whore!

  New Hope, that's awesome. Ride that pink cloud for as long as you can. I have not read any of your previous posts, but I assume you know about Ray Franz's books. They really helped me replant my feet after i made my exit.

  Wishing you the best.
