Humbled he's not kidding. I was taught that in the 50's The Watchtower once said that the black people would turn white in paradise. ( after they reached perfection of course)

79Why are there no black angels?
by snare&racket injw literature is racist as hell.
jesus looks like an american folk singer, the governing body look like a corrupt version of an enron luncheon.. the jw's literally print different magazines for africa with african pictures, black people instead of white, to make it 'more appealing' to them.... just to be clear that means they think the opposite is true too!.
....and then there is the lack of black angels..... .

I gotta get my cells to "communicate" with each other better. Do I get them a smartphone or a therapist?

How bad is the nepotism really with the appointments of elders?
by toto555 ini've seen brothers related or who are friends of elders who get appointed after only 6-12 months as an m.s.
while they were other brothers slaving away for years.
elders also who promote their sons and basically say to other young brothers "to heck with everyone else".

Elders are human. They appoint yes men, friends, and relatives. Nobody would bat an eye except the claim by the WTBT$ is that appointments are made by "holy spirit". hahahah

I think my faith might be returning. Feeling very confused.
by jambon1 ini've been out the organisation for around 8 years.
when i first left, im positive that i suffered from some sort of post traumatic stress.
i was very angry at myself for accepting the really bad parts of the religion that i strongly disagreed with.

Adamah said "as a Xian aren't you and the rest of the believers supposed to be displaying the "FRUTAGES of the spirit"? (capitalization mine) I am relatively new in my exit and my beliefs are still evolving as I gradually learn and grow, but I do know that the word frutage is PLURAL for fruit. There is no such word as frutages. That is like saying fruitses. Love, joy, peace, etc. are the "frutage of the spirit" OR the fruits of the spirit. Sorry for going off topic but for a person as prone to flaunt his higher education and thinking ability I would simply point out a gramatical error that was a pet peeve of mine when I heard it at the KH.
