I remember saying to one man, "I'd like to leave you this tract', and he said, "The only tracks you're leaving is 'down the road!"

jehovah's witnesses wish you'll answer the door
the grand rapids press, mi - 1 hour ago .
... he holds the answer to all your problems.
The Colburn's are a fairly wealthy family (Commercial Real Estate) in the Grand Rapids, Michigan area and do not in my opinion, worry too much about being mistreated or pushed around like the ordinary 'rank & file'! Life in the Watchtower is just wonderful!

i think it's all about fear.
they are always afraid of displeasing jehovah god, the elders, the circuit overseer.
witnesses are always walking on eggshells, hoping that they'll be good enough to make it thru the great tribulation.
Where else can you get some recognition and respect, speaking from the platform, instructing others when in the real world you are a dumba #% 'Nobody'!

Somewhere I read that William Schnell went back to the JW's before he died? Say it isn't so!

when i got off for lunch today i decided to go to the walmart deli and get something to eat.
it is a huge store, groceries, a bakery, mc donalds, a bank , eye center, beauty shop, a great deli, and a huge garden center.
i had taken back a 80 gig hard drive dvd recorder ( i couldn't figure out how to hook up <smile> and had received 238.00. i picked up a couple of things in the store then went to the deli.
Are you sure it wasn't JESUS who protected your purse?

i've always tried to teach my kids to follow aesop's fable of the 'sun and the wind', i.e.
try the gentle persuasion method for achieving your goals rather than head on aggression.
however as with most things in life there is a time and place for both.
I agree Blondie! By the way, what part of Argentina are you from?

i often wonder if my old witness friends from my past are still in the 'truth' (god i hope not)?
i know this site is pretty popular amongst ex-witnesses.
and since most of us have 'fake names'...we could be talking to someone that we already know.
I think that a lot of people use the word 'apostate' and 'in the TRUTH' quite often when it really dosen't apply!
An ex-JW is not an 'apostate' (if he still accepts and believes in Christ) but more likely the Governing Body is 'apostate'.
And, a person in the Watchtower Organization is NOT in the TRUTH! They are into lies! Not that they are necessarily bad people, just duped!
But it is so hard not to use these expressions after being so 'brain washed' with them for so many years! But lets try not to.

yes this orangefatcat has changed to another spiritual path.
i was raised in the anglican church as a child i attended regualary with my beloved grandma.
she passed away in 1992, and when i left the organization in 1999 i had thoughts of perhaps going back to that way of faith.
You made a good decision in my opinion and I hope you are blessed beyond what you could ever expect.
