  New Awake magazine goes after the media

  here is a link to the pdf.... http://www.jw.org/download/?issue=201312&output=html&pub=g&fileformat=pdf&alllangs=0&langwritten=e&txtcmslang=e&isbible=0.

  some interesting quotes.... while it is wise not to believe everything we read in the news, it does not follow that there is nothing we can trust.

  the key may be to have a healthy skepticism, while keeping an open mind.tone: when the tone of a news item is angry, spiteful, or highly critical, it suggests that an attack is under way and not a reasoned argument.sources: is there evidence of thorough research?

  Got Accosted by 2 JW Women While Pumping Gas Yesterday - Weird

  by flipper in

  2. friends

  absolutely weird.

  minding my own business while pumping gas - this 60 year old short jw lady with fluffed bun styled 60's hair and her 30 year old attractive 5 ' 10 inch jw lady partner came straight up to me as i'm pumping.

  they picked the wrong hombre .

  Wonderful anti-witnessing, Flipper!

  You know, when I was still "in" and heard about sexual abuse involving children, those stories really disturbed me, being a mom myself. I'll bet the JWs squirm often in service these days with the light getting brighter and brighter as a result of people like you!

  Good work, Flipper!

  An Elder Reads CoC !!

  i have recently joined the site.

  i was just appointed an elder this summer.

  i started discovering the ttatt (the truth about the truth) last year after putting a few things together myself concerning the leadership and then doing some research online.. i really enjoyed jwfacts.com, jwsurvey, and others.

  Welcome aboard, TTATTelder!

  Crisis of Conscience was the book that helped me to see the light. Now, that's what I call New Light!

  After reading CoC I no longer saw the organization as led by Jehovah's Spirit. It became reduced to another man-made publishing company. Only this one had free marketers --- publishers --- raking in the cash and giving it all to the organization. What a racket!

  I've been out since 2000 and life has improved greatly!

  ever had an out-of-body experience?

  by poppers in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  once in a while, usually in the morning shortly after waking up, i find my "body" lifting up from my physical body, but i remain attached at the head.

  it's a very pleasant experience but i wish i could totally separate from the physical body so i could go exploring.

  this happened this morning again.. .
