It's official, the internet IS the Watchtower's nemesis!
by cedars ini have been inspired recently by some of the comments on this forum regarding the society having reached a "tipping point".
it's been observed that, despite the overwhelming weight of evidence that the society is nothing more than a damaging cult, the number of witnesses continues to increase, albeit gradually.
the latest figures i have available are those in the 2011 yearbook, showing a global 2.5% increase between 2009 and 2010.. as we all know, the internet is steadily rising in accessibility (or "penetration") around the world, and it provides a wonderful resource for those who are curious about joining the faith, helping such ones to quickly identify precisely how warped the teachings of the watch tower society really are.

This scripture has NEVER computed in my brain as logical in any way. I don't get how they make the leap from this scripture to "You're disfellowshipped for the next 3 years until you can PROVE to us that you've changed your ways."

Well, I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. I can't paste a youtube link in here. lol HA! Got it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxgEl-LXdcQ
I have recently begun applying the song "No More Sorrow" by Linkin Park to the WT org.
"No More Sorrow"
Are you lost
In your lies
Do you tell yourself I don't realize
Your crusade's a disguise
Replace freedom with fear
You trade money for lives
I'm aware of what you've done
[Chorus:]
No, No more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced
I see pain
I see need
I see liars and thieves
Abuse power with greed
I had hope
I believed
But I'm beginning to think that I've been deceived
You will pay for what you've done
[Chorus]
Thieves and hypocrites
Thieves and hypocrites
Thieves and hypocrites
[Chorus x2]
Your time has come to be replaced
Your time has come to be erased -

I am actually not an AC/DC fan. Just never really got into that genre of music.
I'll have to google that vid later today.
Oh, heavy metal was considered demonic. The whole genre. Hair bands of the 80s were close behind.
Rap was also bad. I remember making a pretty snotty comment about it at a WT lesson one day, trying to be all spiritual. Ugh.... I was about 14 or so.

Witnessing to the JW's on my Online Baby Forum

I had a conversation with my non-JW aunt today and she used the word "deprived" when she talked about us kids growing up as JWs. So true, really. But I was just programmed to tell people, "Oh, we're not deprived! Our parents buy us stuff any of time of year! And they always do big stuff for their anniversary!"
Yeah. Uh-huh. They did anniversary ONCE A YEAR, nothing more. Many of my friends got the same.
Graduation parties were another opportunity for gift giving, but that's what? Once a lifetime? :P (3 times, tops... around here they do 5th grade graduations, 8th grade, and senior.)

Special day Last talk "No formula"
by MommieTiger inthis weekend at our special assembly day, let gods will take place the final talk was a head shaker.... the bethel speaker was quite entertaining when he joked @ the shortcomings of the elders.
he also made us laugh with the comment "we were told the end of the system is right around the corner, but we've found its been more than that, we've been around the blocks a few times.
" he told the young ones to make the truth their own by researching in the wtbts publication (only).

WOW. I hated babycenter. Too mainstream for me. I was a mothering.com girl.
Good work, though. I hope someone PMs you!
