  What are the maim lies Apostates tell about Jehovah's Witnesses?

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  main not maim.

  picked this answer up on quora.

  please add other apostate "lies" you are aware of.. "jehovah's witnesses cannot refute the facts in the so-called “ lies” against them, and when they do, they shamelessly lie and tell half-truths to defend their mind-controlling sect.. their new york based leaders tell them that anything negative said about their sect is a “ lie “ from “ mentally diseased, bitter apostates”.. jws are yet to come to terms with the fact that we are in the information age and they can no longer get away with lying to protect their organisation.. for example, one of the “ lies “ told about them is that they shun anyone who leaves the cult , including family members, including their own children.. another “ lie “ is that jws are ready to allow their children to die rather than accept a life-saving blood transfusion.. the child sex abuse coverup in the cult is also said to be a “lie “.

  One of the big Apostate "lies" is that Jehovah's Witnesses don't help the poor.

  Let's put it this way, when I started attending a Baptist church (it felt like home), I joined the 'soup kitchen'. This meant that we prepared food and drinks and took them to a car park in a van.I felt like I was actually doing the 'Lord's work' because I was in that mindset.

  My then JW wife, who left because I became a Baptist, said, "Those people don't need food, they need the Watchtower and Awake!"

  Jaw dropping comment. It shows the mentality of not wanting to give practical help. I was shocked by her response. Oh, well, she married another Jobot now, so good riddance to bad rubbish.

  There you go, Vandy, my old friend. JW propaganda 101.

  It reminds me of....which doesn't mean I believe the Bible...but JWs should

  Isaiah 5:20 ESV

  Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!

  Proverbs 17:15 ESV

  He who justifies the wicked and he who condemns the righteous are both alike an abomination to the Lord.

  Demons. Afraid or not?

  by punkofnice in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  when i was a jobot i had the fear of demons rammed down my throat.. now i am without any faith, i don't have that fear because it seems irrational.

  a fairy tale from the minds of some weirdo.. now i don't have to worry about buying stuff 2nd hand.. it always amused me how some jobots would pooh pooh charity (goodwill to my american cousins), shops or 2nd hand shops in case demons inhabited a jumper or a chest of drawers.

  yet at the same time they'd buy a 2nd hand car.

  LUHE - But I'd never play a Ouija board or anything like that.

  I wouldn't bother for a different reason. Mainly, because it's all make belief and 'woo'.

  I'll watch horror films but feel I've been cheated of a good plot twist when everyone dies in the end.

  hi,.

  as far as i can understand is that male-female friendship is a no go for jws.

  but how do things work if you want to date someone of the other sex if you can’t have close friendship with?.

  Biahi- Punky, you’re not an old man!

  Thanks. That's sweet of you. I'm beyond the bloom of youth by many a year. Not a lot to attract anyone apart from my stunning and intellectual mind...then, knowing my luck, it'd be a zombie wanting to eat it.

  The filthy, disgusting Governing body (p1ss be upon then), hate natural sexual relations as evidenced by their allowing and covering up sexual predators...using 'contributions(tm)' to pay for law suits.

  It was always difficult as a Jobot to meet and date. It was all kept so twee and childish.

  Chat to a Jobot of the opposite sex and they expect you to get married soon. Pathetic!

  Anyway, I'm a single old man now. No relationship at 63. Perhaps I should go back to the Jobots to find a partner

  Funniest insults

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  so, i was wondering what are the funniest insults i've heard/been called.. the woman who taught me the arabic alphabet did a lesson about insults in colloquial palestinian arabic.. the one that stuck out to me was iniqbir or ini'bir.

  literal meaning: bury yourself.

  "go and bury yourself".

  Rulesy- I used to get called a 'Jobo' or 'Joey' because I was a JW.

  I use those expressions myself now. I've claimed them.

  They're a bit hard of thinking.

  Watchtower Study on 5th December.

  by Lost in the fog in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the wt study for this week is all about disfellowshipping.

  in an early paragraph it said "think how heartbroken jehovah must have been when members of his own angelic family turned their back on him!".

  however when you think about it, when this happened according to the wt teaching, jehovah still engaged with satan in the heavens (book of job) and had conversations with him about what was going on in the earth.. so why do the wt org practice shunning when jehovah god obviously didn't?.

  The WTBT$ are duplicitous lying scum. Look what was written...

  Awake! January 8th 1947, disfellowshipping has pagan origins:
  Where, then, did this practice originate? The Encyclopaedia Britannica says that papal excommunication is not without pagan influence, "and its variations cannot be adequately explained unless account be taken of several non-Christian analogues of excommunication." The superstitious Greeks believed that when an excommunicated person died the Devil entered the body, and therefore, "in order to prevent it, the relatives of the deceased cut his body in pieces and boil them in wine." Even the Druids had a method of expelling those who lost faith in their religious superstitions. It was therefore after Catholicism adopted its pagan practices, A.D. 325, that this new chapter in religious excommunication was written.
