  "Well Rounded JW Kids"

  by LDH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  well, my parents (from ny) came out to visit a couple of weeks ago, no notice or anything (they live 3,000 miles away) and knocked on my door on a friday evening.. as hubby was not home from work yet, and i was laying down from yet another migraine, i got extremely agitated when the doorbell rang.

  now, i don't open my door for anyone when i'm not feeling well.

  to make a long story short, it was my parents, who spent about 6 days.

We had a new couple in our hall new baby and all, but they were interracial. I can remember if I counted on one hand how many loving sis. and bros, talked to this couple, Maybe it was our hall Jah's love hadnt made it there yet. But within 6 months this couple gone. By their fruits you will recognize them. Amen... nojw

  ARE AVERAGE JWs DECEPTIVE?

  by Amazing in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i ask this because on this and other forums that have a large share of former jws, our stated experiences and encounters during and after our jw membership seem to reflect that the wts and its body of believers are most corrupt.

  likewise, those never associated who read our posts may get the impression that even visiting a kingdom hall may result in serious negative events.. i believe that it is important to remind everyone that the average jw is a generally good person.

  most try to live good lives, act on their beliefs, and promote what they feel is the truth.

  One time I was in service with an elders wife. She pointed out the next house where a sister and young children were sitting outside, and she said we are not supposed to talk to her, well I always the sister and our kids played together. The point is she said it with an air of evilness, instead of it coming as bible based, even with myself I ran into an old friend we pioneerd together , I said hello, and the other sister yelled , real loud , we are supposed to talk to you , you are dfsp, No I am not I said, I spoke to an elder and he said I dont think you are. There should have an apolgy coming for the lie spread, but there was none. Most of them are deceptive. How can love for an org. come before family, how can a mother forget the love she had for her children, or grandparents forget the love their grandchildren reguire from them. WE all know that feeling when something is not right, God gave it to us. When I left a sister said to me if you go you will lose all your friends, never mind that I would lose my life in gods book, so she is staying in the org. for friendship not her relationship with god. As you said god is not using the Wt and I believe most of them know it, yet they still go door to door, that is being deceptive. The pain that they have caused and still it goes on to so many people on this board. Can they really be sincere and not deceptive? nojw

  i have read some very interesting posts from norm, focus, farkel, jan, and alan f regarding the silliness of the wt.

  (if i left someone out i apologize forthwith.

  i have decided to enter my analysis of joseph franklin rutherford to the mix.. during rutherford's administration, he was referred to as "the world's foremost bible scholar.

  I was allergic to the Watchtower

  by professor in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as a boy, i would suffer severe attacks of sneezing, itchy eyes, and post nasal drip when i would read the watchtower.

  it was especially noticable during our family watchtower study.

  i began to think it was the paper its printed on.

  To LDH Role of Anointed

  by Amazing in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hi ldh: i brought this to the top because i felt it warranted some extra attention given that this is a core feature of the watch tower religion.. during my 27 years with the organization, i was openly of the anointed for about 20 years.

  i served as an elder and ms, often being involved in aux.

  pioneering, circuit parts and district convention support.

  Amazing, I am learning so much by posters such as yourself, thank you, when we stared studying , it was with one of the anointed, not an elder though, he told us why I still don't know he told us, he said that he was under the eye of the local elders, and that he was not used as much in the cong. And now I see as you said he was kept under scrunity. Thanks again for your post. nojw

  JW Pedophile Hits Close to Home

  by Amazing in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  this is brief because family members have asked that i remain low-key for the present when on public forums regarding this specific case.

  i have provided greater details in a private forum.. many of you may recall my justice series on h20 where i dealt with the issue of pedophiles among jws, often drawn from my experience as an elder.

  while serving as an elder i did object to the failure of elders to report pedophiles to the authorities.

  Amazing, thank you so much for sharing with us, because of their coverups there is going to be hell to pay as you said. These men are so quilty, I have met some truly offensive and sickening elders but covering molestations that has to the sickest on a grand scale. Hope they pay dearly for their dirty hearts.
