If it's any consolation I had very similar experiences; it was always so confusing listening to those assembly parts and year book stories about how Jah answered this and did that; but never did for me or those I was close to. After many years of seeing my family and friends really put themselves out there to pioneer; and not being blessed as the yearbook always painted it out. Praying for a blessing to enable them to keep pioneering and not recieving it. One of my siblings actually had a complete mental breakdown over these things. Unfortunately she is still drinking the kool aid despite this, but it became quite obvious to me that this whole god delusion is just a sick joke.

think i'm becoming an atheist
by rather be in hades ini was just thinking about how often i prayed when i was going downhill.. now i subscribed wholeheartedly to the 'don't pray for bullshit requests' concept, so at first i rarely prayed.. starting around middle school, 9/10 i prayed for friends.
didn't really pray to stop the teasing, my fists did some of that and besides...racism isn't/wasn't jehovah's fault anyway and i can't pray for that to end when he allowed the witnesses to suffer in ww2.. through high school, same issue and then when i started pioneering and hanging out with some of the other witnesses, those prayers prayers for friends intensified cuz they were asses.. but they were dominated by the prayers to love god starting around 15. i didn't want to read the magazines, despite how much i love reading.
didn't want to stdy the lessons, didn't want to plan my presentations, though i did enjoy giving the talks and crafting them.

The End of False Religion Is Near! HAHAHA
by tootired2care inmemories!
i remember a few years back being involved in the campaign work, and having the distinctly awkward experience of having to hand the householders this piece of sh1t tract "the end of false religion is near!"..
i recall the discomfort i had trying to get into a conversation about this nonsense.

@Niveau
Yes, agreed; hand it out and move on to the next door was a relief; but when someone actually asked for an explanation, good grief there wasn't much to say that would make them not look at you like you were bat sh1t crazy.@bottleofwater
Are you referrring to all religion or just JW's?@King Solomon
Funny thing I never actually read it, even though I handed it out ...I guess I had that in common with 98% of the other pubs. -

I love how they deceitfully place their unstated prophecy in the title. Nothing like a call of doom to get the flock excited. This is just a another reminder of how delusional and wrong they continue to be even in recent years.
What were your thoughts deep down when you were handing this trash out?

WTWizard....I am curious
by still thinking ini am curious to know what sent you down the path of your current belief.. personally, i find i am going away from belief altogether...but you seem convinced that satan is the true god worth worshipping.. what was the turning point for you?
did it begin with sheer dislike for the jehovah god...that is uderstandable when you read the ot.

The true, unsung hero of the Bible....
by Unlearn inmy undisputed hero of the bible is known by several names, depending on who you talk to...devil, satan, lucifer, etc.. read it, and you'll find that he was the only one who really stood up for you.. he asserted that you could make decisions for yourself...and told you the very real truth that, just because the piece of meat in your chest stops thumping, you positively do not 'die'.. he was your hero.
he stood up to a daddy-maniac and said, 'just because you made us doesnt mean you have the right to tell us what to do.
i thought we were free?'.

You are hard to ignore, why is that?
Sab - That sounds like a rhetorical question, hopefully you can find an answer to that.
Nice attempt to skirt the issue.
If I love my wife, my kids, my dog, my country, and pay my taxes and do everything to be a good citizen, except have a great fondness for god, because of his wonderful past "Acts of Valor" as you put it. I am still a lawless and evil person by the bibles standard, and therefore am marked for death, and worthless to the eyes of a true believer.
A sane person would conclude this law of god to command love, or face death is tyranny, and the antithesis of freedom. It really is wonderful that this nation is not a theocracy, can you imagine it the other way? All theocratic governments are a threat to freedom. They will always use LAWS like the first command in their religious texts to justify subjugating and killing off those who don't swallow the god kool aid; just look to the sickening Muslim theocracies, and the Crusades of the past to see the overwhelming evidence of the BAD effects of gods LAWS, and who knows what the future holds when these religious nut jobs start getting really angry about erroding faith around the world.
I choose to stand on the side of freedom.

My desire is that whatever explanation you have, you don't bore us to death, or insult our intelligence with pages of drivel that will make our eyes glaze over.
