This is such sick thinking. Doing something so hurtful, vile, shaming cannot be done in "love". Everybody gets screwed with this. Why would a "God of love" inspire such aweful practice? Easy, it came from men not God.

I decided that I would just have to live with the "not fit in" part. It can be okay. I do a lot of stuff by myself although this past yr was hard because I was hit by a car and have been pretty isolated. Thanks to cable and books and music I'm okay and pulling thru....it's not easy. Every time I've thought about ending it I think, Well, the sun is coming up tomorrow....let's wait and see. I also have some responsibilites to my animals to be cared for and not slaughtered or put down. Divorced (ex jw husband gay...brothers protected him...and threw me under the bus). Lost all "friends" blah blah blah. How comeyou don't go on line to meet some chx? If you are ever in Seattle I'll take you round and dinner. We can be friends and "not fit in" together.

Are JW's REALLY the cause of people committing suicide?
by scotoma inblame the cult.
blame the cult.
blame the cult.. suicide is a very complicated behavior.. mental health professionals caution against assigning blame when people kill themselves.. being disfellowshipped is a life stress and some people are not equipped mentally to handle it.

There were two physical twin sisters in my cong. One had some serious emotional problems. She "heard voices" so the elders told her she was demonized. She killed herself. Now THAT"S amore!

Really Important Watchtower News
by scotoma indon't you hate these misleading headers.
i usually wait a day to see if there are a significant number of posters to the page.. but just look at the number of visitors that click on these kinds of subjects.. it builds up really fast.. i don't mind the time factor (1 milisecond) clicking on a bogus "new-secret-this will bring the org crashing down" type of post, but i have to admit it is very disappointing.. .

What outlaw said, what mouthy said. I've given it thought more times than I'd care to admit. Those elders are murderers. It's not the first time and sad to say it won't be the last.

Divine name debate - Greg Stafford v Paul Lundquist etc
by yadda yadda 2 ini'm sure this has been discussed in depth before by the scholarly minded on here.
i'd be interested in seeing any former threads.. what are we to make of greg stafford's theory (and the watchtower society's) that the hellenized philosophy of the early nt copyists caused them to remove the divine name (tetragrammaton or variants of) from the nt writings?
have any scholars offered a rebuttal?.
