The new Governing Body is liberal. they are really freeminders!
by rege brazzy indear friends, your posts are very good, but we really think that they will change many things soon...for example.
watch tower now are feminist and they protect the gay cause.soon we will have many gay marriages in kingdom halls.you will see.that governing body is really cool.ted jaracz and john barr were the last puritans in the governing body!.
the current governing body is completely liberal, but as yet has some bethelites the old guard working, they are still holding some behaviors .... but very soon you will see ... even in my congregation is very liberal ... not here disassociates for immorality .. just for apostasy ... i fucked three sister, but the elders did not shunned me, but they only help me!

Extreme emotions re today's watchtower
by Tornintwo ini was supposed to attend the meeting today, one of my once a month duties for the sake of my family and my fade.
i read the wt and i just can't stomach going.... what this wt does is again and again reiterate that only jws will survive the coming destruction and that they should be happy about this and raise ourselves erect...eg:.
we cannot expect that many people will suddenly convert to true christianity.

This might be off-topic but
Tornintwo suggested: "Just google 'church offers support to refugees' and see what wicked works those of false religion are up to!"
So i did.
On just the first 2 search pages were mentioned: methodist, catholic, lds, episcopalian, baptists, church of england...on and on.
Did I see Jehovah's Witnesses mentioned? I couldn't see them anywhere.
My wife went to the assembly today. I mentioned to her about this WT article. She grew emotionally angry at me, saying "why do you people only attack JWs and not any other religions?"
So I came here to read the comments for a while.
I read some churches website. I saw the picture of the dead boy on the beach. (i won't post it, you can google image it if you want to)
It gave statistics:
...ISIS has created the worst humanitarian disaster of our time.
...The number of innocent civilians suffering: more than 11 million people are displaced
...Half of those 11 million refugees are under the age of 18. There is no such thing as other people’s children. They are all of our children.I read. I saw many pictures. but when i saw the dead boy on the beach again, i pictured the sexually abused JW children lying there in his place. I can't even type this right now.......
The article talked about whay they are coming: "They are risking everything, — because these families consider themselves dead already..
Right now Syrians consider themselves dead.
Maybe not physically, but psychologically and socially [a Syrian] is a destroyed human being, he’s reached the point of death.”
How many JW refugees have felt dead and managed to escape WT?

Another Kim Davis inspired self-invented "gay issue"
by Simon inwhat is it about some of these self proclaimed "christians" who go seeking persecution when it don't exist?.
we've had a case locally in calgary where the initial reports sounded like the person had a legitimate claim: a bus driver didn't want to drive the bus in a gay pride parade and said he'd resign if they made him and that the local transit company was threatening him to force him to do it.. except it was all invented ... by him !.
they already proactively told him that there was no danger that he would be asked to drive that bus in the parade (i.e.

I don't see this liberal/conservative religious culture war going away in my lifetime.
But as we see in the post by Village Idiot (of Louis Gohmert), the question that fundamentalists can't answer is "who's religion are we gonna follow? Name the denomination that's right for this country and then we'll see if the American public is in favor of it."
We see the Christian right unprepared to meet others on the level of rational argument, but instead they begin by denouncing all argument and then throwing a parade whenever one of their own makes headlines. That's how they operate.
I very much still prefer the old fashioned way - separation of church and state - than have them making our life decisions for us

I agree Vidiot that Fundamentalists like to make issues of things. But being Liberal doesn't automatically qualify a Christian either. I personally don't trust anyone who claims to be Christian, whether they support Gay rights or not. But i agree that fundamentalists blow their horns the loudest. And liberals would like to convert and control you too. But maybe i'm drifting.

Simon,
I don't know if you saw HBOs Bill Maher this week, but quite a lively discussion ensued when the subject of Kim Davis was brought up.
I especially liked what Salman Rushdie had to say (at about 3:00) about this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=156&v=EmMyrt_Vbew
He said: "it's religious bigotry. While they are persecuting others, they claim to be persecuted. While they're behaving colossally offensively, they claim to be the offended party. It's an upside down world....everybody does this"
WT does this too.
I believe Christians (and others) draw attention to themselves as a tactic to gain control over others. It's all bullshit.

I've decided to make a difference that REALLY matters
by Mrs. Eden inhello friends!today is a sad day for me, as seven months have gone by since my mother passed away after a decades-long fight with breast cancer..
because the witnessing/preaching/teaching work doesn't make any sense to me anymore; because it's not about any "truth"; and because it's basically useless, i've decided to quit doing it.
instead, i've decided to do something that actually can make a real difference in other people's lives.

Mrs. Eden 3 days ago
Hello again.
It was great to read your replies, thank you! Your experiences have been eye-openers to me. Perhaps fading for too long and too gently ends up being counter-productive, because that way I'll never get rid of them. So I'll be getting more straightforward soon.
After all, wasn't it Jesus who said: "What you are about to do, do it quickly" ? - John 13:27
Mrs. Eden
Wow! You posted that only 3 short days ago. that was certainly "quickly" Mrs Eden.
Hmmmm......that reminds me of fast cake. Ever hear of that? That's the kind of cake that tastes better the faster you eat it. mmmmmm.....i'm getting hungry now....be back in a minute.
" and I know I'll feel incomparably more accomplished than by recruiting others to the JW cult."
and you'll get more appreciation for your efforts too!
