  "Anniversary of Jesus' Death" Invitation wording

  by seenitall in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  noticed the wording change this year.

  no more memorial or lord's evening meal mentioned.. only an invitation to "the anniversary of jesus' death".

  so, my question - who has caught this phrase and what does it mean?.

  Mentally Diseased

  by Mum in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  apparently (i'm taking others' word for it) the watchtower publications are asserting that "apostates," i.e., those who have chosen to no longer be jehovah's witnesses, are "mentally diseased.

  " there are some important issues with this assertion.. first, they are not mental health professionals and in no position to diagnose mental illness.

  do they believe we all have the same "mental disease," or are there different diagnoses for different people who come to their senses?.

  The Apostate Boogeyman

  by RayPublisher in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  londo has written a great article (imo) about how apostates are a figment of the jw imagination, fomented and concocted by none other than the watchtower.

  not necessarily the dictionary definition of the word apostate, which simply means a person who leaves their religion, for by that definition everyone who leaves any religion to become a jw is an apostate.

  no, it is jw conception of the apostate, both as an individual and as a group that is imaginary.. .

  "We should re-label ourselves, never refer to ourselves as Apostates, that is to play the WT game, simply call ourselves Dissidents or something similar."

  well.....what can i say...after lurking and much research and eventual signing up on this forum...i filled out my fs report for april with average hours and magazines, but i never went out in the ministry.. it feels odd, and i feel bad for filling out time that i knew i never did...i hate the idea of going out to people's door and telling them a lie...not sure how much longer i can do this for .

  just had to vent!.

  peace.

  [quote] I honestly think if they were to remove the shunning policy, there would be a mass exodus (which is exactly why they can't remove that vileness). I think there are way more than we think, just going thru the motions. [/quote]

  So true!
