Food for thought ? Talking to a JW ?
by smiddy3 insome questions you may like to ask a jehovah`s witness?.
1.when did the modern day jw religion begin?
we all know the stock answer to that q that they will give ,but persevere .. for the past 2000 years there has never been an organization known as jw.

Problem is that being a JW is kind of a sweet gig. All the correct decisions will be made for you now. If you follow those decisions you get to live forever without ever having to think for yourself. Remember if you don't make any decisions then you can't make any mistakes.
Do JWs ever think about their responsibility if the GB steers them in the wrong direction?

The governing body KNEW
by FedUpJW inso i received an email from one of the used-to-be jw friends that now pretty much ignore me.
it was haranguing me about "getting right with gee-ho'-vuh", and how imperative it was to "return to the organization".
it continued on with the worn out argument that "the faithful and discreet slave know what we must do in order to be safe and to live, as gee-ho'-vuh brightens the light to them.

I think the video is supposed to be about being afraid to stand up for what you believe but ended up being about not knowing enough about why you believe what you believe to stand up for it. Or maybe it was just thrown together without worrying whether or not it made sense.
They probably used birthdays as a reminder of one of their "not a rule" rules.

Should Difference of Opinion Be Squelched On Sites Such As FB or Twitter?
by minimus ini think that for the most part, dissenting views should be allowed to exist because of free speech principles.
one person may strongly feel that something is true while someone else may present “facts” that support the opposing view.
when that is the case, healthy discussion is mostly productive.

The one that concerns me is blocking apps from being installed on my device. Like Apple and Google blocking the Parler app.

If The Jehovah's Witnesses Stole Your Past...Don't Let Them Steal Your Future!
by The Bethelite inyes, many here have lost many years of life due to being infected by this cult like religion.
for many it is very hard to let go of that life and those wasted years.. of course people need time to heal and this web site is a great place to do that, swap war stories and commiserate.. i was in for over 50 years.
so of course it will be with me for the rest of my life.

Yup, I left at 30 or so and the truth of the matter is you don't really know what you missed. But you do know what you are longing for so make those your goals.

I remember rolling my eyes at the caution against wearing your baseball cap backwards. Even as a hard core JW at the time I couldn't figure that one out. Not wearing caps with logos would have made more sense.

Especially odd since celebrating birthdays is technically supposed to be a conscience matter. Or at least not a DFing offence.

I suspect the GB would have no problem if all the "fringe" JW's took off...
Good point, kind of like how scammers use intentionally stupid emails to target the less "alert" people.

Are Jehovah Witness willing to end studies?
by Maria Nieves inhttps://www.jw.org/en/library/magazines/watchtower-study-october-2020/how-to-conduct-a-bible-study-that-leads-to-baptism-part-two/.
i recently came across the above watchtower article which spoke about conducting bible studies which lead to baptism.
it progressed to say that if the bible study instructor does not see growth within the student or the desire to work towards baptism, then the studies should end.

Depends on the weather. If it's nice out you might not want to spend an hour indoors. However rain or snow and cold, good to have a study or two that you can use to stay out of the elements. And if it is snowing don't forget to leave a WT at the nearest laundromat to start your time. That way you don't waste an entire hour diving the three miles to your student's house.
