  Is zeal beginning to vanish?

  by Caupon in

  it has to be starting to fade somehow.

  the very last time i went out in field service, hardly any were out.

  maybe just about nine people were out and man if you could just see their faces.

  I do believe many JWs are just burned out & the schedule is soo perfunctory that it gets soo exhausting.... there were many times by the end of the service mtg we would have rainy days debate whether to go out D2D or not people start talking having hot coco & coffee, that is the time i would see them get all happy for just associating.... & especially cuz D2D was cancel no one would say it's canceled but it was implied.... I'm soo glad I don't do any of that anymore

  What was your ''the last straw that broke the camels back'' moment

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  there is a limit to how much straw (long yellow grass) a camel can carry on its back.

  if you keep putting more straw on top, it will finally break the camel's back.

  when you are at the last straw you are finally angry and will not take any more.. my moment (to stop attending all watchtower meetings) was after the harsh treatment from the elders and fellow congregation members of my second cousin who was disfellowhipped as a teenager.

  Last straw? I concur with many that it was many straws but the one that did it was how they treated Ray Franz & Ed Dunlap & many of bros being thrown out to the "world" from Bethel worse than dogs... then the horror stories from many being shun by their families for just walking away from the WT ( I don't have family in JWs so it never affected me personally) but watching & hearing videos of heartbreaking parents, children, sisters, brothers, etc of being shun angers me ..., I also felt disgusted what this organization has done to many children victims of child sexual abuse, not reporting it to authorities, that's a huge no no for me, then when elders & Jeffrey Jackson was asked in the ARC, if he had watched the trial or read the victims statements & said no... i saw how evil & arrogant they are & they don't care about our children...

  Going to see Star Wars:The Force Awakens - What are you seeing?

  this is not an attempt to 'straightjacket' anyone into a fixed interpretative perspective.

  so set your mind free and see satan and his demons if you reallynwant to adopt a possible jw perspective.

  or, just sit back and watch the show and the trick affects if you want.. or like the uk guardian you could see the movie in terms of dysfunction (personal and family).. quote: the original movies were always based on the most extraordinary nexus of personal and family dysfunction: a motor of guilt, shame and conflict.

  Literature being discontinued, including Isaiah's Prophecy and Reasoning book

  by Richard_I in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  congregations get an annual letter that tells what can be ordered for literature (it's mainly a list of audio cds/dvds for the deaf), but this time it included publications that will be discontinued, and this included the isaiah's prophecy book and the reasoning book, and i think i saw the draw close to jehovah book.

  i meant to take a picture of the letter but forgot.

  the branch is only going to give what they have on stock, when that stock depletes that's it, you won't be able to order those publications anymore.. this is in canada so i don't know if this is worldwide..

  I also believe that in the future they will stop offering the WT library that has WT all the way to 1960s, it's too much exposure to researching all the fail prophecies in 1975... so get them while you still can.... not printing "spiritual food" at the proper time so they fed us junk food??!!!!

  I felt shocked & lied too...blinded, upset & then soon felt a huge relief that I was no longer subjected to bondage to an organization & felt happy about not going to service... Also I felt that heavy load you felt like you don't do enough & will die at Armageddon GONE.. life feels lighter & free....

  It first came about with seeing the yahoo article trending of the australia Royal commision of child sex abuse, I looked up the videos on YouTube & came across a couple who left JW, they mention false prophecies & they brought up the part of WT being a UN member, that was the beginning....Those 2 were major discoveries for me, because immediately I knew at that moment we are the same as other false religions if true....compromising their neutrality is very hypocritical....

  Until recently I discovered also how the followers of Johannes Gerber & his spiritist wife claim that Jehovah's Witnesses champion their bible translation... that was shocking & it disgusted me that they would go that far to fit their doctrines when they did something that GOD detests... the NWT being soo flawed, I refuse to use it after discovering that....

  Esmeralda: believe me they are digging for information of what you do on your spare time when your not at the hall or field service or jw activities especially as a single attractive woman sister in the hall, be prepared that most eyes will be on you. Unfortunately you will be a target that happened to me... many would say " oh what have you been upto" my response "not much enjoying t he weather & working" & then they would ask more questions but when I saw it coming I would shoot back with questions abt their family, kids, the school system etc.... when they ask you 1 question ask them questions & pay attention to what they are saying so u can ask more questions, then in those awkward moments look at the clock & say " oh I got to go I have plans" or my parents are waiting for me see ya.... jejeje

  @Cofy: ur welcome I think everyone should know... it's hard to keep up with all the GB disgusting & nonsense talks, when I heard it even when it happened last year I couldn't believe my ears... Many of us recently woke up & may have not heard of these talks, now i can teach my child how the head JW men really think about woman & teach their OPINIONS OF MEN, & that is why we are fading!!!

  Like one poster said the more they open their mouth the better for us just shows & proves how shallow thinking ungodly men they are & they are coming off their pedestal soo fast...
