I do, sadly I do.
Most are about going to the KH for some strange reason, and all kinds of uncomfortable things happen.
greetings, dreamers:.
i guess it's never going away: daytime carryovers of jw-related stuff seeping into my dreams.. the majority of these dreams take place at conventions but with really weird trappings.
last night i dreamed i arrived at the site with no books, no lunch, nothing but my car keys.
I do, sadly I do.

so, i'm in a starbucks.
it's 5:45 pm.
this kid who is maybe 6 years old yells, "mom, my tablet is fully charged any my phone is at 84%!".
I am not - I am waiting for my Freaking Jet Packs, Flying Cars, bases on the Moon and Mars!
What happened to them?
last year i had a brother tell me that one proof evolution is false is that he doesn't see it happening today... i was going to bring of viruses evolving so fast that new vaccines must be developed each year but felt he was too closed minded to receive it.

Funny how people BASH science while using their computer on the internet.
for the second month no jw.org tv show, but the annual meeting this time... .
g..
They not doing a video has NOTHING to do with them being in trouble.
The video costs them nothing. It's a baseless assumption.

By the way if you believe in the FLOOD - then you believe in the most gigantic explosion of Evolutionary power ever!
Going from a room full of pairs of animals to over 9 million species from Noah to say Abraham.
The bible is so silly.
never througt there would be a jw.org hq song.. they have become mad.. https://tv.jw.org/#nl/mediaitems/latestvideos/pub-osg_40_video.
g..
So is that for Kingdom Halls, or Assembly Halls, for Branch Buildings?
Suprised they didnt have a Contribute Now button at the end of the Video:)
yesterday i went to a shopping center.
i saw a dub who was once a very friendly person.
he was about 10 metres from me when i noticed him.
Was walking down a nearby town center this past summer. We are not DFed or anything. No one has any reason to think anything of us but that we stopped coming.
An MS and his wife from a nearby congregation (who by the way used to love love my talks) were walking toward. When we got close and he recognized us, it was like we had Ebola.
Very sad. No love at all in this Org.
i left the jw organization last year during summer.
maybe some of you can relate.
who of you are agnostic or an atheist?
Phoebe - I actually envy you a bit.
Feeling there is nothing ahead but the void isnt fun.

I don't believe in any god.
Would I be happy if there was something, and there was some type of afterlife.. SURE!
But there is no indication in any way there is anything out there.
Just because we tiny microbes in a vast universe cant explain where life came from, where the universe came from, does in no way give evidence that there is a god.
Sadly, after almost 5 decades of being sure there was a loving god, that ship sailed and sank.
As a JW you were well taught how to find inconsistencies and holes in other religion (while not looking at your own), so I think its hard for an XJW to move to another false religion.
the wts has been selling and promoting christ's return and the end times since the late 1800's, right through all of the 20th century and still continues today on the same core doctrinal premise.. 1914 was set as a year of christ taking position upon his heavenly throne followed by choosing the wts as his earthly guided organization in 1919 according to the wts.
leaders at that time.. the actual truth is that the wts is a publishing house and it was inherently pressed to make up doctrines which would gravitate attention to its published goods, accurate and honest bible interpretation was a second lesser concern.. the original heads of this religious publishing house (c t russell) first proclaimed that christ had returned in 1874 and 1914 was going to be the year jesus was going to cleanse the earth of all wickedness etc.
this was obviously a false doctrine tainted with ignorance and a bit of commercialization in reality.. so the question remains what will the wts do in the future, what will the wts do as far as doctrines to allure the general public at large ?
Listen.
Apparently, there are still people (on this site even - which makes me very sad) that believe the earth is flat.
There 7 billion people on the very spherical earth, and that means there will be a % of people who will believe anything.
The WT has found its share of that pie, and it will continue to get its slice.
Now it probably will dwindle as time goes on, but as mentioned, there are still people who believe the earth is flat :(
