  Do Jehovah's Witnesses REALLY believe that their worldly friends, relatives and small children will be slain in the street by god?

  by jambon1 in

  i mean, it's so utterly ****ed up, it's unbelievable.. just think about the nitty gritty of it:.

  people that they love & care for who don't share their religion deserve to be killed, left without a grave & eaten by wild animals.

  one day, this will happen & they'll be surrounded by billion upon billion of decaying, rotting corpses.

  I wonder if their ever was an Elder that wanted someones nice house in service SO MUCH that he would send Brother Goofus to their door so that they would not learn the truth and would then die at the Big A so he could get first dibs on their house.

  How about creating a form that would allow the Jws to write down their name, congregation, status, ( pioneer, MS, x years etc) , address of the residence they are interested, time and date along with a place for an Elder to sign off on.

  If this form were to be made to look legitimate do you know any Jws that would ACTUALLY fill it in?

  How about a footnote on the bottom that would say:

  "It is up to the Jw that has been assigned this residence to personally be responsible to remove any and all bodies, including children from said property to the street for routine pickup and disposal"

  Falling asleep praying...did you?

  by punkofnice in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i remember there being 'admonition(tm)' from the platform about how disrespectful it is to sky twat jar hoover if we nod off when speaking to our imaginary despot god.. i was always nodding off when praying.

  i noticed in the end it didn't matter if i prayed or not the results were always equally disappointing snooze or not!.

  If you nod off and are unable to say "in Jesus name" then the prayer does not make it through. So you could be praying for hours, deep thoughts from the heart and doze off just before the end and all that was in vain.

  Which brings up the subject of "Where is the prayer being buffered or recorded up until the point where you launch it by saying the special "In Jesus name"?

  Seems like it would have to have been "stored" for lack of a better word by some intermediary of Jehovah until those words are said, since he does not hear it personally until, again, those special words are uttered at the end. Of course once you say those special words, then it is properly forwarded to Jah so that he can hear your prayers.

  I think it makes more sense to say those words at the beginning of the prayer, you know, to open the connection before spending all that time praying for nought.

  It gives the idea of "In the Cloud storage servers" a whole new meaning, as it were.

  Fading ... and Feeling Lost

  by What Now? in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  prior to that we had been in a new congregation for about 9 months, and we were just irregular.

  my husband rarely went, and i would go occasionally with our toddler son just enough to show our faces and keep the elders off our backs, and for the sake of some friendships in our old hall.

  all of the reasons i had for going were just no longer important.

  Once the sports start with the kids, you will be posting on here, " How do you handle all the new friendships we are making since soccor started!" lol

  Really, we've been out for just 2 years and my youngest one is scheduled to play 2 games of baseball and 1 football. With that comes dinner afterwards, sleepovers, etc etc etc,..

  It will all come and again you will wonder how to slow it down somewhat.

  Hang in there.

  'Great ROI'...successfully fading

  2. experiences

  6 months or so ago, me and my wife decided we will never set foot again in a kingdom hall.

  about 4 months earlier than that, i stumbled upon an article about the wts being associated with the un.

  that got me into finding out ttat eventually.

  Congrats,..

  A few more books that a person leaving the WTBTS to help clean out the cobwebs is "Captives of a Concept" by Don Cameron and

  "Combatting Cult Mind Control" by Steven Hassan.

  Even though a person "gets" the the WTBTS is not the truth, there are still "irrational fears" AKA Phobias that are probably still in the minds of those that have had decades of constant indoctrination via literature, meetings, DC CA, personal study etc etc etc that can act like trip wires where a person can experience, say a natural disaster, where their mind will go to the thought that the big A is starting.

  Hope for the best, plan for the worst.

  my name may be a bit premature...because i'm actually still active within the org, but i guess you could say i've already "left" in my heart.

  i'm just scared to take the first steps, because i don't know any "ex's" in my neck of the woods, and i'm very scared of loosing my family.

  i just need someone to talk to.. .

  Glad to hear that you have awoken to the TTATT,..

  Be sure to check out jwfacts.com if you have not already been there, loads of great info from the WTBTS themselves that basically cut themselves off at the knees, as it were.

  you can hide your whole friends list from everyone.

  this would be helpful if you want to friend people that are df'd or apostate.. .

  go to your timeline, click on "friends" and then click the little edit icon next to friend requests/find friends button; click on edit privacy>friend list> here you can choose to hide your list of friends from everyone.. .

  I agree and noticed the "HUMAN APOSTATES" designation also.

  We're JUST LIKE SATAN but only humans.

  We're like SATAN but only in HUMAN form.

  Tell me that they do not have a complete library of books to show them how bend peoples thinking without them even being aware that it's being done.

  So the straw that broke the camel(my wifes' back)

  so after our incident today i let some time pass so as not to kill the mood and bring up all the annoying watchtower stuff.

  however i said, "babe seriously, i know you were upset about the other issue but you seem to just never want to even think about borg stuff again!

  i am glad - don't get me wrong - but so i can reall understand please tell me what was it that made youjust wash your hands clean so fast?".

  I had basically the same experience.

  She was "stronger" in the TRUTH that I was and she seemed to just take it and roll with it whereas I am still wondering how she was able to give

  it up so easily.

  It was a little slow going at first but then after reading Captives of a Concept it seemed to cut em off at the knees, as it were.

  I still try to get her to look into other things that would help bolster her decision to leave so that she will be stronger if anything ever came up

  that would shake her currrent beliefs, you know, cobwebs and trip wires still potentially active in her mind. Cannot get her to see the benefit of doing this,

  Getting her to continue to research is even harder and more frustrating than the original approach on getting her to see TTATT.

  Frustrating to say the least.

  That was David Splane, I believe is his name.

  If this happened in a REAL government, we would call it a
