  eyeuse2badub - "In my efforts to 'reverse witness' I always encourage people to watch and listen to Stephen Lett. If they can take him seriously, I know that my efforts are in vain..."

  smiddy3 - "...How can anybody take this man seriously? Surely anybody new to JWs and sees this guy give a talk would never come back."
  

  I often can't help but suspect that the rest of the GB are, in fact, fully aware of this, and deliberately put him on specifically as a sort of bizarre litmus test.

  If a current JW is so hard-core loyalist that he or she can drink Lett-flavored Kool-Aid and honestly say, "please sir, can I have some more"...

  ...they've got 'em for life*...

  ...and if a new recruit can't, well, let's be honest... they probably wouldn't want 'em anyway.

  ...

  *not unlike increasingly staunch and borderline extremist rhetoric, for example...

  Sometimes it feels like a new American Civil War IS brewing...

  ...between the Left and the Right.

  Which - if it actually happened - would be way worse than the North vs. the South, IMO.

  "it's easier to fool people than it is to convince them that they've been fooled.

  it's not just jw's who blindly follow their leaders.

  it's horrifying to see how easily mass-hysteria has been instilled in a nation.

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  i hope that within the next several months we will get back to some type of normalcy.

  will restaurants ever get filled again?

  will you ever be able to sit at a bar or go to a concert or broadway show?.

  Why is this an APOSTATE site?!?

  by LaraK in

  1. forum
  2. suggestions

  i made a big mistake when signing up at this supposed website for jehovah's witnesses.

  after reading some things on this site it has become apparent to me that this site is nothing put another pathetic site for apostates: people who betrayed jehovah, left the truth, and are so bitter about their experiene in the truth, and they are angry just like satan because they know they will very soon be dead at jehovah's hand!.

  this website should be renamed something more fitting like "satan's playground" or a similar name that would get across the message of your site.. sincerely,.

  TD - "Blast from the past. I wonder where Lara is today..."

  Hmph.

  The way things have been going, she'd probably got her own "apostate" website by now.

  I had a somewhat paranormal experience 2 days ago, but I think science is just light years behind on this.....

  for the record i'm agnostic, never seen any direct evidence of spirits, afterlife, etc.

  i've been visiting my mother during this corona ordeal.

  a year ago i had a dream i was much older and talking to somebody about how my mom died this year but it was avoidable.

  truth_b_known - "...So, what if premonitions are memories being transmitted back to ourselves?"

  I say don't close the book on possibilities like that.

  Quantum physics does some seriously weird-ass shit...

  ...why wouldn't it occasionally manifest itself at the macro level?

  Zoe Knox - "...These behavioural guidelines sometimes shift: sexual relations within marriage are now regarded as a matter of individual conscience, for example..."

  Bitch, please.

  As far as I'm concerned, this one's just another tug on the leash.

  The moment there's enough supermajority votes amongst GB members with hang-ups about kinky stuff, they'll waffle back...

  ...and frustrated sexual dissatisfaction amongst the rank-and-file will go back to normal.
