  Kind of Depressed, Looking for Someone to Talk to

  by Reborn2002 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  some of you on this board know me, or at least part of my story, very likely most of you do not.. i am a 21 yr old male from chicago who finally mustered the courage to da myself roughly 6 months ago.

  being a 3rd-generation jw, my grandfather was an elder 45 years, so this developed a reputation and precedence for me that i would one day be a co.. or go to bethel.

  such high expectations, which i am happy i never fulfilled.

  Reborn,

  You are making the right choice in reaching out.
  Most on this board have suffered the same feelings of rejection as you & we can relate.
  I try to live my life as honestly as possible, as a free man,a slave to no one & its good to be free.
  Adjusting to freedom takes time & can be frighting.
  Some want to go back to the way it was, like the x-con who willingly commits a crime just so he can return to prison & whats familiar.
  Tough it out & give it time, you will make new friends.
  Once you learn that , the truth about the 'so called truth' is a lie, what can you do anyway?

  Apostate Literature

  2. friends

  is it possible after researching the net on jw beliefs, background and reading apostate information that a jw would still research the bible and find watchtower teachings as truth?

  Oh course it is!

  The "TRVTH" may not set you Free

  by Amazing in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  does "trvth" set one free?

  truth can certainly promote and assure freedom ... but the "key" to the jailhouse door is not some ultimate "trvth" that we must find.

  some argue that theists, deist, or atheist are free due to some "trvth" or that they are all hypocrits because they debate one another.

  You want the TRUTH?...."You can't handle the TRUTH", that applies to most of mankind.
  Here is the TRUTH: You will die & be food for worms.
  If people can't deal with that, some join religions & swallow the LIE.

  Religion: The Bane of Humanity

  by Adam in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so yesterday i showed the receptionist some comments that i had posted on a different board.

  the gist of the post was that i thought god's punnishment of the entire human race for the actions of one person, namely adam, was a gross miscarrage of justice.

  also that bible tells us of this act, then says that he is a god of love, contradicting it's self.

  Suicides within Jehovah's Witnesses

  by Leander in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  over the past 3-4 years i've been hearing about a number of suicides that have been committed by jws.

  whats even more interesting is that all of the individuals were male and they all had some form of a privileged position in the congregation.

  (regular pioneer, elder, minsterial servant, etc..).

  The forced conformity a Dub endures will cause depression in some,as they miss their individual freedom.
  Sadly, some will think death is preferable to living a lie in a life full of broken promises!

  Anti-watchtower magazine company

  by d0rkyd00d in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was thinkin the other day, it's a damn shame nobody has started a nationwide magazine company producing a magazine that picks out all of the watchtower's flaws, and that is brought door to door on saturday mornings to show jw's for the asses they are.

  i would be the first one in line to get the latest copies.

  i betcha it'd tear down the whole jw structure....too bad, some dreams are only that..... "no cool quote yet, but i'll think of one soon.

  Yes, the Borg stays under the radar keeping a low profile with the media. The Dateline expose' may change this somewhat.

  1975 Made Easy.

  by Englishman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as i was one of those people who were around during the build-up to 1975, i thought that some of the newer converts might be interested to see how the society arrived at this date with such confidence.. firstly, we need to see how 1914 figures in this.

  we need to appreciate, that although the date 1914 is arrived at retrospectively - that is it was assumed initially to be the date of armageddon, only later was it re-written as the date when satan was thrown out of heaven and jesus ascended to his throne.. the society tied this in with the scripture this generation will by no means pass away until all these things occur, assumed that a generation was the average life-span of 70 years, tacked it onto 1914 to arrive at 1984 but also mentioned that some would live to 80 years owing to special strength, then mentioned that this generation would by no means pass away so that quite a wide time slot was available for armageddon to arrive.

  this window of time then provided endless opportunities for jws to be kept in a permanent state of anticipation as various events unfolded.

  1975, what about 1975, who ever said that was going beyond what is written & running ahead of Jehovah.
  Its an Apostate scam!
  Oh, & by the way, please turn in your old publications, so they can be recycled. Jehovaha's people are not wastefull you know.

  P.S. STAY OF THE NET, its run by SATAN!
