Who is your favourite thinker?
by The Rebel inhaving recently read orwells 1984, i was impressed with how he understood that both politicians and people abuse language.
this further confirmed to me how the w.t had deceived me by using words to distort reality.
the book 1984, also contains many other great thoughts of george orwell.. of course there have been many other great thinkers, buddah, darwin, freud, einstein and marx come to mind.

Anthony Morris III. Hands down. Brilliant man. Who else could mislead so many people with absolute devotion?

This sounds like what I was going through for a while so I am so sorry to hear that. My advice to you, in now that I am talking to a ton of ex-JDubs is Lawyer Up! and sue the crude out of them and the WT ! Contact a local newspaper, put out ads in the locals whatever you have to do. I am sure there is at least one shark in your area willing to make a name for himself. If you do not win, you have helped to save a few lives when they read the newspaper. And if you do win, you will get some ca$h and save some lives! It is a win/win situation here. -

A lot of "forbidden" talk is going on among witnesses
by nevaagain inme and my wife are still "in".
we had the "talk" a couple of times, but shet is not ready to leave yet.
while a couple of years ago she started crying on the thought that i am an "apostate" and even gave me an ultimatum until she would rat me out to the elders (never happened), now i sense that she might is a little bit more open to the the thought to leave one day .... anyway, all out friends and family are still in the truth and whenever we are meeting with other witnesses topic #1 is always the recent changes to the meetings / conventions (reduced to one day) which always lead to the changes to the magazines and the recent lay offs of the special pioneers and bethelites.

by David_Jay insince i just signed up and posted a few times without doing this yet, here is my story..

Waiter upset after discovering $20 tip was actually a Bible pamphlet
by macys inat first i was thinking, "jdub!
" since i know some jdubs that do this kind of sh*t. no really.
they do this.. (january 12, 2015) -- a waiter in kansas took to social media after discovering what looked like a generous $20 tip was not legal tender.. for 17-year-old garret wayman, the excitement quickly faded when he realized that, not only was the money fake, but it was actually a pre-printed religious message.. http://fox59.com/2016/01/12/waiter-upset-after-discovering-20-tip-was-actually-a-bible-pamphlet/.

Since I told my parents that I am working on being reinstated they have been open to talking with me (at least my mother anyways) and I always ALWAYS sneak little tid bits of truth in there. I introduced her to the ARC! Now she has been quite so.... -

To all JDub lurkers: How can you continue to preach knowing that you are telling lies?
by macys inthis is a damn serious question.
you must know by now that jerusalem was not destroyed in 607 bce and that 607 was initially picked by ct russell by using his "pyramid scheme" measurements.
there is no hiding these facts yet you continue to preach this nonsense.
-
macys
Yes! That is what I am saying. I mean my conscience would bother me if I kept preaching just so I had "time" to report. What bullsh*t. But I know in order to be "reinstated" I will have to show my face in service again. Dagggg! Oh well, I will not be trying to convince anyone.
And so on this one basis alone, and JDub must concluded that his religion is not the truth.
Period!

Thank you everyone! I do not know if I made any progress with her. She is so damn ignorant! But I will keep trying!
