  To Any Jehovah's Witness Reading This---Please Think About Getting Out!

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i sympathize with you.

  you may feel there's no where to go.

  you might worry that you could lose all your friends and family.. you might believe it's better than the other religions and you should just "wait" on jehovah/the organization.. you might have doubts but you might feel a spiritual connection.. all i can suggest to you is to please think about your life.

  Good advice. For some though, it is an over-simplification. It is not so easy to leave. I wish I could, if my wife would join me I could care less about the rest of my family. I wish my relationship was certain enough that I would know for sure if it would survive with me being an apostate but she is too attached to her family. I guess time will tell.

  In Your Estimation What Percentage Of Witnesses Actually Believe They Have The "Truth"?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i think 60% think or hope it's all what it's cracked up to be and the others are just there for different reasons.. what do you think?.

  80-90 percent. However if you were to estimate how many believe that the WT Org is still on the right track then that % would be less I think. Doctrinally it all sounds good, but many JWs are begining to realize that the org is screwed up.

  Evidence For Impending Change Re: "Loose Conduct" to "Brazen Conduct"

  by DarioKehl in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  on another thread discussing possible changes to the nwt, the post refered to a 2nd-hand report of a co leaking possible changes to 5 verses where "loose conduct" would be replaced by "brazen conduct.

  " although it is merely speculative at this point, i would like to remind those of you who did attend the 2012 dc this summer about some important evidence that supports this theory.

  if the program is still available on jw.org, feel free to see this for yourselves.

  At the last km school they specifically stated that this is not to be done. Congregations are to not have any website, email address, twitter account, or Facebook page period! They are going to get a "spanking" from their CO.

  Were You Ever Comfortable Going From House To House?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  because i was raised a witness, i don't think i was "uncomfortable" knocking on strangers' doors.

  (weirdo).. but as i got older, i simply didn't want to bother anyone so i was at there door for no more than 30 seconds.

  at the end i hated being there..

  Is Today's Jehovah's Witness Religion The Same As It Was When You Were A Member?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in my day, you were proud to be a jw!

  you knew you'd get "persecution" and it was all good.

  when you abstained from blood, you read the ingredients of a candy bar!

  Minsterial Servant about 18 months ago.

  Elder about a year ago.

  Body of elders consist of:

  men in their 50's and 60's

  Most aged 45 and younger.

  Most are good men but a couple are what I like to call Stepford-JWs. I swear they have a factory out west where they put these Skinjobs together..

  WT is mother, WT is father, Long live WT. BING! WT is mother, WT is father...
