March 1st WT...
by TheApostleAK ini found this quote in the march 1st wt particularily sickening...the april 16-22 study, paragraph 4. i won't reproduce the scriptures for you... section name: the happiness of those in the light or really the happiness of those in the organisation.
(isa 26:1,2) these are the exultant words of people who trusted in jehovah.
faithful jews in isaiah's day looked to jehovah, not to false gods of their fellow countrymen, as the only real source of security.

"Not of Our Sort" Part I
by TMS ini am an old man.. this is a topic i have been comtemplating for some time as i continue in this transitional time of my life, reminiscing about my 50+ years with what some of you call the "borg", but i simply refer to as jehovah's witnesses.. good people i have known who loved god, but did not fit into the organizational scheme of things is the topic.
there will be at least three parts a la amazing.
this topic will sink out of sight like a rock, but it is therapeutic to write it and the contemplation brings a smile to my face.. my first subject is b.w.. b.w.

Would you forgive the shunners?
by nojw86 inif after all the years of being shunned by family , friends , would you forgive or forget them and all the misery they handed you, or maybe let them think about it for somtime before you talked to them again.
of course this can only happen freely if they left the org.

Yeah Yeah I'm back
by joelbear ini couldn't stay away.
i love you guys.. abaddon's and ldh's recent posts hit close enough to home that i decided to post again.. i think the selected memory and split personalities go hand in hand.. the selected memory helps keep the cult personality happy and gleaming no matter what damage the suppression does to the real human or the real human's family and friends.. a couple of years ago i was talking about my childhood with my parents and they both acted stunned when i said i was still angry with them because they didn't want me to go to college (i gave up several scholarship offers, etc.
to become a pioneer and eventually go to bethel).

Smurfs
by Kismet inby now most of us have heard the urban legends of smurfs vs. jw's.. such as smurf dolls walking down kingdom hall aisles or strangling jw babies (replaced dingos eating them in australia lol).. the initial problem jw's had with smurfs was that on the tv show they were conjuring up spells, later more ummm "enlightened" jw viewers started questioning a community of all males with only one female (smurfette).. so jw's felt that it was not appropriate for jw children to watch shows about magic.. it is this same reasoning that has scared some away more recently rom harry potter novels and pokemon.. it was stupid when it involved smurfs and is just as stupid now.
.
but there ya have it, the main reasons (if you can call them that...) that jw's hate smurfs and developed such wild stories to enforce their opinion.. kismet

Mulan, That may have been one of the first stories I read after my cancer operation. What a cruel thing to say not treating someone who is dfsp. I t brought back tears again, I'm such an emotional fool. Yet I did hit with something along those lines also. A cousin said to me , I told her I was praying my cancer would not spread , well it might help if you were praying to the right God. I prayed that she would never call me again. Well it is one year later and she did'nt. Would like to hear more of your story. nojw

Sorry to hear of your friends death. So sad when hope runs out on many of us, and depression set in, but reading your post maybe other on the board can be helped to see a way out. Prayers to you and his family. nojw
