  JWs at the Movies

  so i was watching some of the dramas screened at the be courageous convention, and one caught my eye.. it's the scene where a group of jw teens are watching something deemed as "sinful" at the movie theaters.

  there were only sound effects, so i decided to fill in the blanks.. https://vimeo.com/275184883.

  bottom line: machine guns = bad.

  this afternoon, i had a vision.

  one of the past, present and future.. .

  over the past two decades, i recall one distinct, universal phrase being uttered by older jehovah's witnesses on many different occasions:.

  Cheap Shots Fired

  2. beliefs

  when @brian j’s “bullet in the head” thread went live (https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/4747450574176256/session-8-bullet-head) those written shots echoed in my mind.

  a week later while overhearing a bible study, the conductor was asked if god really has given us “free will”.

  but if someone ever put a gun to my head and asked me to renounce my faith as a jehovah’s witness, i would die.”.

  Unprivileged

  2. beliefs

  something just dawned on me today as i processed my assimilation into the real world (thanks to our new poster, @jester, giving me a major throwback to my first post).. when you're a jehovah's witness, you really are in some sort of la la land.

  things which are perfectly normal are acts of eating from the table of the demons.

  things which are horribly grotesque and extremely unjust are branded as "righteousness".

  Deadly Discipline

  https://www.openmindsfoundation.org/loving-memory-laura-ann-gracey-father-remembers/.

  the death toll from watchtower increases with the latest suicide report of laura ann gracey.

  here, her father recounts the events leading up to his daughter's taking of her own life - undoubtedly starting with her indoctrination from birth into this stifling, doomsday cult.. i see many similarities to myself as laura.

  Help Finding Poster's Challenge

  by Wake Me Up Before You Jo-Ho in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hey guys,.

  i've been trying hard to locate a comment that was posted no longer than a few weeks ago (if that) by a poster providing a challenge for witnesses to find one scripture that states that we are still saved/have hope if we are outside of this "new covenant" that wt claims is for the 144,000 only.

  the thread was to do with ways we can wake up a loved one and this particular poster (i can't remember who) gave a step-by-step guide to helping witnesses waking up using their own bible and doctrine.
