  Protesters at conventions / assemblies...

  first off, i can happily say that this year i did not attend a single day at this years district convention.. on saturday during the convention, my wife asked me to drop her off after lunch and later pick her up when the convention was over.

  while i was dropping her off, i noticed a single individual holding picket signs protesting the convention.

  it said things like, "was the ransom sacrifice worth it?

  the best I saw was a small group of protestors with a sign that read "millions who will never die are dead" I got a chuckle out of that... of course being a believer at the time I just told myself they had misunderstood what that talk was about. and of course as it turns out, no, it was I that had misunderstood

  hi guys & gals,.

  the news about the aurora victims has spread worldwide and even in tiny cyprus do our hearts go out to the victims families.. .

  unfortunately, the watchtower society doesn't see it that way.. .

  well what about columbine then? this took place in broad daylight when children were at school. Why wouldn't Jehovah want to protect those children? Dam, god sure is an asshole insn't he?

  Who else, besides me?

  by AK - Jeff in

  2. experiences

  over the years on jwn i have often found myself hunting through posts of newcomers, hoping against hope i suppose, that the newbie would be one of my former friends in the local congregation down the street.. i just find it hard to imagine that not a soul among these people has taken the courage to investigate their religion and leave like my wife and i have done.. as the local 'active apostate', i also supposed that at any moment some of the 'brothers' would come covertly to my home, knock and say something like " i am out - please let's talk about it, why i left, why you left.

  but, none of the above has ever happened.

  i did come across a local former jw here, from another congregation, and we have become good friends over the past few years.

  I want to release the motherload

  by Anony Mous in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i have collected and assembled hundreds of letters, documents, publications, personal communications, e-mails from the branch etc.

  etc.. my original intent was to make some type of searchable database but my time has been taken over by more important things in life for me.

  i don't care about the jw's all that much anymore and who or what gets what information i don't really care.

  The Watchtower Society actually WANTS witnesses to take blood.

  by Sapphy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  shocking?

  hear me out.. acts 15v29 "blah blah blah... abstain from blood".

  for years the millions of jehovah's witnesses worldwide have been fed stories of "brave witnesses" who "fought to stay true to their convictions" by refusing blood transfusion.

  FRACTIONS ARE POINTLESS! they are used in therapy and as medicine. People NEED components (RBC,WBC, Plasma, Platelets)

  Fractions have been a conscience decision for decades just nobody knew about it.

  the only reason the fraction issue got so much publicity was for liability reasons. I initally hoped that the fraction thing was a stepping stone to allowing blood as a conscience but I no longer feel this way.

  Fractions are a consience matter, components and whole are not. I don't see this changing as an official policy. the only thing I see is the loopholes getting bigger and easier for JW's to use blood components without elder's digging shit up.

  but as an official WTS policy? unless the governments force it upon them, blood components and whole blood will remain a DA offense

  Some investigators have said that just 43 “kinds” of mammals, 74 “kinds” of birds, and 10 “kinds” of reptiles could have produced the great variety of species of these creatures that are known today."

  Yes, and these 'investigators' are called evolutionary biologists.

  actually if I recall correctly, isn't the above quote almost 200 years old? I can't recall the book or year exactly but it is certainly at least from a 150+ year old science publication.

  In fact, I think it was published before Darwin's Origin of the Species. that is probably the most rediculious citaion in the WTS history

  welll the KM will have highlights about the record high number of publishers for this or that month in this or that country.... and the highest magazine placement to hours ratio in this state or that province.

  they will find a way to put a positive spin on no matter what occurs.

  truthfully though, I see slower growth in 3rd world countries, decline in the Japan, Netherlands, Sweden, etc. small decline or zero growth in USA and Canada. Higher number of annointed (+800) Higher peak pioneers (due to 30 hour dumbing down of pioneering but the WTS still calling it pioneering)

  New Experience Of The Carjacker & The Jehovah's Witness

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  my mom told me this as it was related to her.. a witness is suddenly carjacked!

  the man tells the sister he is there to steal her car!

  she begs him not to take the car as it is the one she uses to take her elderly mom to the doctors.

  That happened the same day that the Conti trial verdict was handed down. The angels were so busy protecting this JW lady from being carjacked, that they forgot to influence the trial jury to hand down a verdict favorable to Jehovah's the WTS legal team

  yes undercover that's correct.

  you see it works like this: when the JW's are persecuted it's because they have the truth and Satan hates them.

  When the JW's are reveared, it's because they have the truth and Jehovah loves them.

  so no matter what happens the JW's are always "the truth". quite simple really.
