As many here would testify. You would have to be very stupid or mentally unconscious to allow the abuse that Watchtower puts you through as a Jw. My family and I have experienced enough of it.

Knocking on schoolmates doors
by BettyHumpter ini left the jw's shortly after i graduated high school.
but when i was still at home i'd get dragged into door to door every saturday morning without fail unless it was pissing rain.
i can remember always being anxious to know what territory my group was assigned.

Running in to schoolmates was always a challenge. I started to work in field circus with my brother who shared my Idea of not talking to anyone about Jw crap and getting rid of most the Watchtower and Awake in the public trash without getting seen. Yes we Pioneered and placed record Watchtower/Awake records. But actually talking to anyone is a different story. We would go to a door and not even knock or ring. And if someone would answer we would talk them out of it or just say we are Jw's end of conversation.

Watchtower has a way of dressing up bullshit so it doesn't smell so bad! But it still is Bullshit.

WHEN is the Kingdom of God coming?
by Fisherman inwhen is the kingdom of god coming?.
on being asked by the pharisees when the kingdom of god was coming, he answered them: “the kingdom of god is not coming with paratherisis; 21 nor will people say, ‘see here!’ or, ‘there!’ for look!
the kingdom of god is in your midst.” —lu 17:20,21. .

Dumb 'experiences' you were told as a JW
by BettyHumpter inthis one stands out in my mind.
it was reported that 'a brother', unnamed of course, was out in field service and was set upon by a pack of vicious dogs.
he made it back to the car and was injured quite badly with his arms, hands and leg bleeding heavily.

I have First hand experience where a Pioneer sister over exaggerated the story of how her beat up run down car was repaired at my brother's shop. My brother was in the audience at the same convention when this sister was telling her bullshit. My brother text me ,we could not believe the story. It was not how it went with us and she didn't pay her bill.

For awhile my pimo brother who was a machinist would fill the donation boxes with metal washers. I would put fake money in the box. Then from a far we would watch the account servant collect. What a good laugh.

Watchtower vs Islam: Why the deafening silence?
by raymond frantz inwhy has the watchtower failed spectacularly to evangelize to the muslims?
considering the recent influx of muslim people in european countries you would think that some attempt from the religion that touts the are preaching the good news of the kingdom in all the inhabited earth would have been made.instead the only meaningful attempt dates back to 1953 ,almost 70 years ago!!!!
book " man's search for god.what do you think?
