This is the first news that we were supposed to be contacted again on an annual basis.
In nearly seventeen years, not once (not that I want one!)

Ernest Hemmingway once wrote a boof "Farewell to Arms."
Farewell to you, too - and good riddance!
If by "failure" you mean having seen through the charade of the WTS, then I am happy to be labelled a "failure" - there ought to be more of it!
And who are the "saddest":
- these wouldn't include the deluded fools who have decided to work full time (and unpaid) for a multinational book publishing company, that cares not one iota for the welfare of its adherents, would it? (!)

What makes J.Ws worse than any other organisation?
by acolytes inmany outsiders see good in the w.t.
and many insiders see good in the w.t.. so is not the w:t like any other organisation based on idealisam and growth.

That is easy (or ought to be!)
The WTS claims to be RIGHT -and everyone else to be WRONG!
In fact, they are guilty of the very same crimes that they lambast everyone else for committing
(Including - but not limited to - false prophecy. Commmitted by anybody else, it IS false propehcy. Committed by the WTS, it is "New Light)

Feb 1,2011 wt What makes a marriage last
by bobld inwhy the breakdown .my mate and i are growing apart.. before you follow the advice of this publication.read the following.. robert and mary have been married for 30 years.they have a lovely daughter jennifer and a son ryan.robert,says we were a very happy family doing things together.like reading the bible,praying, going to church,weddings, funerals,christmas parties,get together with friends,vacations etc,etc.however,all that changed when mary joined the watchtower cult.now my wife declines all the above activities.all she does is read the wt/a mags.we now fight everday and are not happy.. just imagine mary said she will not go jennifers wedding because she was told by the publishers of the wt that our church is babylon the great,a whore and evil.
see wt 07/10/15 p27 and wt 05/02 qfr.. i believe their advice is hypocritical and would in fact cause this family to grow apart.they would end up in divorce court.the wife is brain-washed.after the divorce she would disown the family and will the estate and money to the wbts.. b.

Whatever makes a marriage last, you won't find it in any WTS publication.
What would seven old fossils in Brooklyn know about human relationships - or anything else to do with human relationships, for that matter?
The best techniques of selling literature have sweet Fanny Adams to do with anything else, including marriage guidance!

It must have appeared that way to many!
I can recall some in the congregation with their noses right out of joint, when they did not get to host the CO for a meal.

New Light
by Spade ini've noticed quite a few dissidents of jehovah's organization that have left with some fixation on jehovah's witnesses concept of new light.
i really don't understand.
the antiquity of religion may be historically educational, but not always personally illuminating.

Real scholars of the bible - NOT the pseudo, Watchtower Society type "scholars" - are in agreement that Proverbs 4:18 is indeed talking about an individual's spiritual development.
N.H. Knorr is credited with seizing on this bible verse in an attempt to justify the WTS's frequent changing of doctrines:
- not to mention its frequent need to revise its interpretations of bible prohecy, when these have failed repeatedly.
Well has this so-called "brightening light" been more accurately described as a "Flashing Light", like the WTS is unable to make up its mind.
Better call in the electricians!

others seem to feel that witnesses are wacky but they don't hate them.. do you hate this religion?.

The GB really do not want us to think for ourselves Mar 15th WT
by life is to short ini know that some of you might think that i really should be reading the wt but with a husband still in and being that i am still very tied to the religion though him i want to know what is up with them in some ways.. the march 15th wt made me feel sick.
on page 5 it was talking about how we need to wait on jehovah.
it was really the same old stuff but i feel with a different twist.

All this nonsense would be quite laughable - were it not for the fact that anybody who takes it seriously is going to harm themselves.
They have been preaching the same cracked record for one-and-a-half centuries, and how many generations of believers have acted on this "advice" to their detriment?
i.e. Declining to undertake College Education, putting off having families, not preparing for old age (a sore point with me these days - staring down the barrels of that, and with no retirement savings to speak of - all donated to the WTS!)
I regard them (the JWs) as a straight out menace in the community.

J.W. are.................
by bobld inthey hold in reverence (godlike,deity) the gb.. when god (gb) speaks there is vital reason to listen.
d.c.. receiving jehovahs' (gb) instructions.d.c.. even when they made mistakes,jesus did not question,their motives.don't question gb motives.
"my follower" book.. new song book.one sister wrote"a delightful gift from jehovah(gb).yearbook 2011 why 2011 when year is only 11 days.old song book from jehovah(gb) had to many mistakes.however sister above taught it was a gift from jehovah when it first came out as all the other ones that had to be re-vised.. whatever the gb says it is from god per all j.w.. my conclusion j.w.

I start running out of unpleasant adjectives with which to describe the JWs:
- a good, old fashioned "Pain in the Backside" would be one appropriate description!

Made up field service experience at yesterday's Public Talk
by RULES & REGULATIONS inremember the made up stories of witnesses in djibouti,africa where they had to walk 2 days in alligator infested waters with no shoes in the blazing sun to attend the meetings?
they made it to the meetings in these terrible conditions.. talk about made up stories!
here is a field service experience that was told at yesterday's public talk which would fall into the made up stories!.

The only "dog" story I know from field service was when I one day managed to stomp on ones head with my heel , as it came at me from behind (it was a rather low- to- the- ground type of breed, but could still have inflicted a serious enough bite).
There certainly were no angels about that day - none that I could see, anyway!
They have to come up with something to delay people from nodding off to sleep during their public talks, and "Never let the truth get in the way of a good Public Talk" seems to be as good a way as any!
