  So..... are you apostates enjoying your mansions and private jets?

  by Mr. Falcon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a super-zealous elder once told me in a very grave tone, "you know, mr. falcon, when someone becomes an apostate and leaves god's organization, they usually do very well physically and materially.

  " hence the reason he claims that they feel "vindicated".

  now i do also remember hearing such statements in the past from other witnesses.

  Why can't you ask questions?

  by ihadnoidea in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i know that some will disagree on this, and say you can ask questions.

  yet, i ask you to honestly think what would happen if you openly started asking questions on jw doctrine or evolution.

  likely you would be made to feel like i did below if you started asking these questions to other jws.. .

  Jehovah's witness meetings are NOT BORING......

  by punkofnice in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  ...i was told but they usually were as i look back.. as a lad i'd sit and look to see who the lights would fall on.

  i'd get an almond and see how long i could suck it before i chewed at it.

  i'd imagine playing rock'n'roll on the congregation's piano.. how did you get through the meetings when you were bored?.

  I walked out of an Elder's Meeting

  by AlmightyDog in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  well here goes... i apologize in advance if this turns into a long and disjointed rant, but i just have to begin typing in order to keep from exploding.

  i realize that what im about to say could seriously jeopardize my anonymity, but i think ive reached the point that i just dont care.

  i want this to be over.. let me explain what caused me to rip up a letter and get up and walk out in the middle of an elders meeting two weekends ago.. our boe has been embroiled in a nasty fight for the past 2 years over a certain brothers business dealings.

  i finally resigned as an elder.

  my conscience wouldn't allow me to continue.

  i've battled for years trying to reconcile the fallacies of the wt society with my own personal beliefs.

  Bethel Apostates are the True Faithful and Discreet Slave

  by doubtful in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there is absolutely nothing "discreet" about the old "governor's body".

  they parade themselves around like celebrities, show up to give talks in foreign countries where they don't even speak the language, and plaster their pictures all over their magazines.

  they also make more references to themselves than any sane group people in their right mind ever should.

  PROTESTS AT WATCHTOWER CONVENTIONS

  by Lawrence Hughes in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  dear friends,.

  as you may know, the watchtower society takes great pride in its district conventions.

  please contact me if you can attend any of these protests.. there is no reason why every district convention in the world could not have a protest and receive media coverage to expose the watchtower society.
