  Being a CO must be a good gig if you can get it. They are looked up to and no one in the congregation dares tell them what to do. He dropped you like a hot potatoe. He didn't want to hear the truth, did he? He didn't want to talk it out. Perhaps he will catch you later.

  slamming the door on jehovah's witnesses.

  she is an apostate, which sounds like a strange disease, and in many ways it is.

  Excellent point, Cedars. If they are ashamed of their past and have to cover up, deny and whitewash it, that says it all.

  2013 District Convention Program: ‘God’s Word is Truth!’

  by bats in the belfry in

  .

  unlike god's word, that jws believe to be absolute truth, any one of their directives given at the 2013 district convention could be subject to misinterpretation.. .

  Since my brainwashed daughter and son in law will be attending this assembly, I am very concerned about these talks.

  The thing is, they are not even correct about what a true apostate is. They base everything on the Bible, which is full of holes and contradictions. How can they claim to know what is true? They condemn those who speak the truth about the Watchtower Society.

  NEW NWT'S Distributed at 2013 Conventions?

  by TheSnarkyApologist in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  chatter on the street is that there exists a very high possiblility of the new newworld translation being distributed.

  it comes from a reliable sources, but who knows.

  has anyone heard anything about this?.

  Wonder how they will justify a new translation, since they claim that holy spirit was primarily relied upon for the accuracy. Have the dubs been using a bad Bible since the fifties? We all know the answer to that.

  i'm only going to the meeting because of my husband!

  i was 'in' solo for years while living with my unbelieving family and i know how it feels to be the only one in your house going to the meeting.

  i also respect my husband's decision, and know what it's like to have family try to tear down your beliefs.

  This is a very beautiful woman, inside and out. This just shows that those who leave the organization are good people, not like the Watchtower would have you believe.
