  is this a bad joke or "fake news"?.

  nbc new york is claiming "attorneys are expected on monday to announce the filing of lawsuits in king's county supreme court against eight members of the governing body of the jehovah's witnesses for alleged child sexual abuse claims.".

  eventhough i would enjoy to see this happen i am very suspiciouse concerning nbcs reliability with this case.. https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/happening-today-nj-water-cosby-appeal-epstein-probe-536740491.html.

  Dear Alex,

  as a such loyal and practising Jehovah Witness that you sound that you are, just the access to this site is counted as apostasy.

  Real witnesses that REALLY believe in the truth do not POST OR SEARCH sites like this.

  But hey ... I really hope your quest will shake your foundations and make you question your decisions.

  It just might save you, so enjoy.

  Much peace to you.

  ok... so the william sisters have in the past spoken openly about their faith by saying they are jehovah witnesses.

  but do they attend regular meetings?

  door to door ministry?

  For the struggling faders and control freaks

  i see people struggling with maintaining control over their reactions to their witness relatives and something struck me that i'd like to share.

  as a jw you're taught that you should have unlimited self-control.

  article after article, talk after talk, about controlling your impure thoughts, feelings, music, movies, speech, actions, literally everything a human could struggle with.

  Why are allowed to let run riot with their competitive games... mini mini skirts?? 👀👀.....and goodness whatever more?

  Isn’t the Society showing their colours by letting celebrities run riot when more modest witnesses get reported, shunned and disassociated because of minor infringements?!

  How is this fair? Does it come down to money? Position? Or that the bad publicity the WT might get?

  I can’t understand it. And I can’t understand why practising JWs don’t look at this and think... hold on a minute, why the double standards?

  Peeps.... what are your views?

  More fear-mongering in Nov. 2019 WT

  by neat blue dog in

  first of all, there's a new imaginary picture of jws during the great tribulation:.

  then there's a picture of a jw family refusing to listen to "apostate lies" via pre-programed, self imposed information control:.

  the description says:.

  I find this so strange.

  Firstly... for the WT to be publishing these type of articles for jws to read means that these guys are very much in tune what’s going on online and what “these so mean bad apostates” are saying about the organisation. so “NO NO NO.....you must not go online!!... but WE WILL!... in your behalf brothers..... because our research will help you to be near Jeeee-hovah!! “ 👀.

  THEN they also tell you... stay away from the worldly images that can rot your mind and pollute your thoughts BUT you can come to the meetings and read our publications where we explicitly explain death, suffering and the ostracism of others! YAY!!! All in a good days work!

  Such hypocrites!

  video games sports etc

  by Akid48 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  maybe two or three weeks ago we had a meeting at the hall about sports which was pretty bad.why do they act like they support sports or videos while they say at the same time they say you can't do 90% of anything of those things,maybe the video says you can play sports here and there but then you have the social problem of brothers and sisters looking down on you for liking sports more or liking to watch sports more than take hours out of your day sitting down going over the watchtower or reading a bible.

  is it just me more i think as a teen you should at least being doing something even if its not sports maybe music or anything a teen likes,because every time i try and talk to a teen in the kingdom hall they seem off or flat out weird,its like there a different type of teen or something they cant relate to anything that you would usually talk about i don't know there just off and i feel like locking them up and locking there brains is just horrible..

  Akid48 i forgot to mention something......Maybe the teens on your congregation are doing fun things unknowingly to you, that would be watched down by brothers and sisters as you put it and maybe they are just trying to keep things low key so they aren’t find out. So don’t take it to heart and build good friendships somewhere else that will be worth to have. Also**** education education education!!!! If you can value this because no matter what happens in your live this always can be your way out.

  Hi Damien, welcome!

  i agree with the comment above.

  i think it’s all about being yourself and not assuming another identity to please those around you.

  This religion is already hard as it it, the last thing you really need is to spend life living in fear and under judgement.

  Build good trustworthy friendships around you, these are important, people that you can rely on will always be worth their weight in gold.....and take it day by day, less stress will help you to make the best decisions that are right for you.

  Wishing you all the best Damien.
