Nice try...nice video. Of course you know they think the problem lies with you, not them. You are not honest hearted, humble, nor hungering for the truth. That is the explanation that we were indoctrinated with at our local Kingdom Halls.
I sure wouldn't like to have that brother's job of answering the telephone questions at Bethel. He is probably monitored to boot.
where do you guys find old tower books and material other than flea bay and their outragous prices?
looking for some of the old books..
My sister bought a complete set of Studies in the Scriptures on ebay. You have to be quick because they go quickly.
my judicial meeting was 6 weeks or more ago, and still no action.
i used a lawyer and a letter to them after i had already met with them and admitted everything.
the crazy part was they didn't tell me that night if i was df or not.
Our elder friend told me that someone threatened to sue them and they backed off completely. The Watchtower Society will not waste money on lawyers just to DF you. You may be allowed to walk away but some of your folks will probably still disassociate themselves from you.
i was raised a jw and i am still one but recently i have been having trouble believing in a god.
this is not meant to offend anyone who does, i am just curious to see if i am the only one who thinks this..... to start, i am a very black and white person.
if 1+1=2 it makes sense to me and i can agree with it.
I had some of your issues also. I downloaded the free book "The Atheist Book of Bible Stories." I also went you You Tube and searched "Atheist Humor." I spent hours watching the animated videos. You learn how ridiculous the Bible is in a fun environment. I don't need anymore convincing. I joined a secular meetup group and really enjoy our get togethers.
it is amazing how bethel is the best at making apostates!
i wonder how many new up and coming apostates the new wt headquarters will generate?.
what nice and fresh stories will surface from the secluded and private wt hub?
I was there for a tour and my sister and I were invited for dinner. It was very regimental and not warm at all. Everyone acted uptight and they didn't look happy at all.
the recent boe letter announcing changes to the duration of circuit assemblies was warmly received by congregations the worldover.
it was as if the brothers and sisters were already in the new world for, upon hearing this news, there were no tears at all.
instead, it is a humble acknowledgement from the gb of the mind-numbing, yawn-inducing 2-day circuit assemblies.. .
Too bad this wasn't instituted while I was still in. We had to pay for a hotel room because the circuitassembly was so far away.
i'm just curious speaking from a person who has stopped going to meetings.
i have heard reports from inactive ones (or from ones who the elders suspect of going to the dark side) of having so many visits from elders (cong members) that it got to the point of harassment.
surprisingly i have to say from personal experience and from numerous others that i have spoken to that the exact opposite has been the case.
ZERO!
after learning about farkels passing, i started reading some of his threads.
i must admit, the man had a great dry sense of humor and knew how to speak his mind.. .
this thread in particular got me thinking last night.... http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/6243/1/the-tree-of-what.
He helped so many of us with his logical thinking. Thanks for recycling this one.

wt material from today's wt will be in a quote box.
Give till it hurts and then give a bit more. We must inspire others to do the same...the Watchtower's life depends upon it.
