Hi Wasblind.... . My ex goes to the KH to feel better and i think this is a drug to her as she is a feeler rather than a thinker. The repetion possibly is lke listening to a favourite record. For me it's like hearing nails drawn across a blackboard and try to avaoid it at all costs.

Do Jehovah's Witnesses feed the starving in third world countries
by Gnosis in.
or do they only help their own members ?.
is there anything in their publications that seems to cast a negative view on feeding the poor ?.

Jesus is going to kill you.....when he come back!
by trailerfitter inthese are the exact words from the mouth of a 7 year old boy to his father , namely me (the father).
yes i am a non believer but also very concerned that his mother, an active & obsessed jw is filling his mind with this sort of thing.
alarm bells are ringing in my head because last night was not the first time he said it.

It is amazing how the information is wrapped up in mummys little love bombs....all the WT inspried words are wrapped up nicely when she teaches him (away from me obviously) however I am doing the same thing by having fun and joking with him.
. As pointed out early by a kind comment earlier, the boy cuts through all the bullcrap and says it how it is. I got tired of trying to get explainations out of her so I will be devious and a trickster. No doubt she thinks that I am influenced by Satan (not that I believe in that sort of thing)....however I am learning to adapt to their love bombing and twisting.

If solid proof were suddenly found that the Book of Enoch should be included in the standard Bible, would that pose a problem for the Jehovah's Witnesses in regards to Michael the Archangel as Jesus?
by I_love_Jeff inif the book of enoch (elaborates and gives mention to 6 more archangels) suddenly became part of the bible due to solid evidence, how would this effect the shakey jw doctrine of michael the archangel as being jesus?
there are six other archangels mentioned in this book; could it be possible, if included in the jw bible, that one of the other archangels could be jesus?
would they excuse it somehow and simply stick with their implicit understanding of jesus=michael?.

Something that always puzzled me about the JWs claims to be akin to the 1st century christians. I understand by watching factual documentaries produced by the BBC that the bible editing was decided upon and cannonised in the 4th Century but before then there were many Christian sects, disjointed groups and many more books around that the groups used before Constantine decided the babble was to be standardised and enforced. Did I miss out a part somewhere or was the NWT actually written in the fist century AD ??. (smirks at the though of the WT claims to this)

Hi Diest,.. I was made aware that many courts do not want to tangle with religious affiars. Getting the courts involved if it is against the Watchtower you know they will use what ever is possible to win a court case if it is against them. Isn't comforting to know that they also have free legal assistance too compared to my poxy legal aid and unskilled laywers who know very little or nothing aboout the Jehovahs Witnesses. Touchy thing going after ones religious beliefs especially as the WT like to brag about beating secular persecution through the courts.
There is no way around the walls she has erected in her mind or any amount of persuation that is going to remove the watchtower blinkers from her head so I am playing it softly softly at the moment. New statement from my lad is,... " Mum hates you because you don't read the bible..." The word hate being the most active part of this statement. However she is particularly friendly at the moment.... I am just trying to spend as much time with him so she gets less contact time. It is working. He likes Star Wars at the moment so this is a good opportunity to point out to him that the future is looking bright for humanity by empasising the most probable outcome for us and our decendants is the human population spreading across the universe.

Protesters at conventions / assemblies...
by garyneal infirst off, i can happily say that this year i did not attend a single day at this years district convention.. on saturday during the convention, my wife asked me to drop her off after lunch and later pick her up when the convention was over.
while i was dropping her off, i noticed a single individual holding picket signs protesting the convention.
it said things like, "was the ransom sacrifice worth it?

Friday my son went to a Church of England church down the road from his school to join in the "last day" presentation. ( no not that sort of last days). You'd know in an instant who did not attend becuase it was held in a church? My son is happy to have support and was even happier when he turned around to see me standing there supporting him. Well, his mother has an affiction and perhaps an allergy to stepping inside a religious building. Me being an atheist I couldn't care less. She went to a congress instead. not bothering to spend the time listening to her some reading out whathe had written before a crowd in the church.. Ironicly that assembly was not a religious service.... Dunno if JWs will burst into flames if the step inside a church???
Yep, anyway she got beck from a 3 day weekend with the JWs and she was sooooooooooooo full of it i almost puked on the spot. I took charge of my son over the weekend and even when she phoned to find out how things were getting on, she was made awre that he was missing her. The cold reply was "that it's okay I am not coming home because I am enjoying myself". When she did arrive she started the discussion about the new videos she had brought recently. Yes one of them was the Become friends with Jhoover. I wasn't surprised to listen as she slithered he way around the subject and pretended she didin't know what the content of the DVD was. half the world knows who the purple wisard is..
. Apparently, according to her the content and narrative of the story is just to get kids on thre right track. Really?.. We got back to the subject of indoctrination... When I read the words. "Come and join us" as the 3rd chapter of the DVD there is no doubt that the intension is recruitment. DVD has now gone missing. I am so very tired of the JWs. they will not let rest and steal time. Neither do I want to talk about the friggin' JW bible nor do I want to hear about the prophesies.
I'd decided to try to make our marrage work though, and remembering what her friends said about making her a better wife, well its like getting a downgrade. and restricted licence. We did talk about moving back in together but after she started on her pious monologing I thought it would be better to leave and remove the small ball of puke that had accumulated in my mouth over the thought of having to listen to that crap often.

A petition that really works! Change the law to bring the WTS to its knees!
by Diest ini know that most people on here dislike the idea of a petition, but i think i finally realized a petition that could really work.
in the candice conti case she was allowed to start a civil lawsuit that was way past the statute of limitations.
because california has changed the their civil statute of limitations in sexual abuse cases.. so how do petitions come in?

Good luck `i'd sign but being in the UK I don't think they'd accept it in any state...
