  They Stole another piece of my childhood... now im SURE i'm not getting a panda ;-(

  well, stole retroactively.

  a friend pointed out a glaring omission in the book of bible stories.. well frankly a bold faced lie of omission!.

  its a tragedy but fact that most of us raised as dubbie kids learn the bible from the "my book of bible story's"... story 15 is about lot and his family leaving sodom.

  i would like to ask does anybody know where i could get an official statement regarding what jw's are allowed/not allowed to do?.

  this matter isn't something there has been a specifically written article on, and i would consider it as being in the 'grey zone'.. from where could i get an the watchtower's official opinion on matters like this?.

  Apostates Shut the door of everlasting life in Men's Faces

  by mankkeli in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was discussing with an elder today, and as usual the conversation drifted towards apostates and their line of reasoning, he angrily looked into my eyes with the scriptures in his hand and told me:.

  (1) that apostates are destructive peddlers who shut the door of everlasting life on people as they are very sure they have no portion in there.

  he quoted matt 23:13- 13 woe to you, scribes and pharisees, hypocrites!

  Positives of Growing Up JW

  by Pig in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i dont think any of us are glad we grew up in the org.

  but i was thinking about people who get cancer, and if they are lucky enough to beat it often they will say that they were better for the experience.

  before they got cancer they were stressed because they had to work extra hours in a shitty job to make ends meet, the kids were nothing but trouble and they spent their lives wishing that time would go faster, that week would be over, that the year would be over.

  Prayer

  by yrkdnme in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i am interested to know from other long time wittnesses if they had a hard time with prayer after leaving the organization?

  when i left i found it so difficult to pray to "jehovah" and still do to this day.

  i am always more comfortable with just "god".

  Funny childhood memory

  by truthseeker1969 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was discussing with my mother who is an active witness what i was like as a young jw kid.. she told me about the time there was a discussion way back in the early seventies about how armageddon would be a time of terror and there would be so much going on.. that night she said there was a terrible thunderstorm and she said the following morning i woke her up to tell her we "survived armageddon and could i please go play with the animals".

  oh the life of a child!.
