  Sitting Still at Meetings has Become an Impossibility

  by venusinfauxfurs in

  2. experiences

  since i know the truth about jw, and still have to go to meetings for family reasons (and because i don't want to leave my friends, either) i get so sick in my chair in the hall.

  i can't pay attention, i can't sit still knowing it's all such a waste of time and a big fat lie.

  i get weird symptoms like: the feeling that i'm going to almost pass out, very sweaty or very cold, and weak legs though i'm sitting down, and the urge to get up and run away.

  Very familiar. My exit started with frequent visits to the back of the Hall. By the end, I was taking laps around the parking lot. Your brain is telling you to get the hell out of Dodge.

  I'm pretty sure Goodbye Stranger by Supertramp is about a discussion with a couple of sisters.

  Is The WTBTS' View Of Homosexuality Softening?

  by JW GoneBad in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  or at least the public may be given the impression that jws and the wtbts are fair minded and do not discriminate against the homosexual lifestyle.

  check out this quote from the nov 1, 2011 watchtower (public edition).

  the article on page 4 is entitled 'ten questions about sex answered'.. question 8: does god approve of homosexuality?.

  There have always been plenty of homosexuals working at the House of God. Of course they don't hate them. We used to call them NPG's.

  An Old Argument.... does it hold water?

  by AK - Jeff in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  estimates range from 4 million to 15 million children die from starvation each year on this planet.

  that's between 500 and 1700 children a day, depending on what numbers you accept.

  still, no matter which numbers you use, doesn't this make you arrive at one of the following conclusions?.

  That is what I mean. How do you know The Father is doing nothing?

  We're not saying that the "Father" is doing nothing, as in, we're mad at him. We're saying he obviously isn't around. If he is, he either can't fix it or won't fix it. It's very simple really. Dead and abused kids in plain view of their heavenly"Father" means that he's not much of a father at all. Not there. If he is, not worth a damn.

  Once you lose the fear of reprisal from what turned out to be a non-existent entity and taste the freedom of personal authenticity and independent thought there is no turning back.
