  WT acually truthful in today's text!

  by Sanchy in

  ...hope to enjoy everlasting life and witness the resurrection, things unseen by the world.

  like the philosophers of paul’s day who called him an ignorant “chatterer,” most people today think that the hope we preach is sheer nonsense.

  (acts 17:18) .

  "The hope we preach is sheer nonsense." - Jehovah's Witnesses

  That's exactly the sort of misquote the JWs used to do in the creation book :)

  An exJW for Prez?!! Peace, for Prince!

  it appears there is about a million voting age jws in the us right now.

  it appears there is 8 million ex jws or in the shadows.. if those 8 million would have the guts to come out for a presidential candidate to come out, we can finally end the slavery, tyranny and corruption in this and many other circles.. cowards die many times but a hero only dies once.

  and cowards die in revelation.. so, to you reading this, are you a coward or a true steward of the earth and creation?.

  Here's a view on homosexuality for you...

  by konceptual99 in

  ...right from a pro-jw site in response to a post about the relative seriousness of homosexuality.

  all you can do is reason from the scriptures, which you appear to have done.

  homosexuality is as serious as bestiality, or adultery and fornication.

  Fisherman: you are, quite frankly, f-cking delusional.
  stop disobeying your Governing Body by trolling Exjw websites and piss off

  I disagree. Fisherman is most welcome here.

  He serves as a useful marker against which we can measure how far we've all come.

  that was 20 years ago so i'm not really up to date with the current doctrinal flip flops or the new youtube obsessed gb.. came across this site while googling the name of a local elder who's just been convicted of possesion of a pc full of unpleasant pics of kids.. so, my question.

  Well then, I suppose that settles it. Evolutionists would never falsify their works.

  Good job scientific papers are subject to peer review then isn't it?

  If only the bible was as well.

  so it has been a couple of months since me and my family have attended a meeting.

  we have received a few calls and visits.

  but what do you say when people ask "where have you been"?

  Be non-comittal - talk but don't say anything.

  You've been busy at work/strugling to find time/etc.

  Don't admit to doubts, don't have any discussions on 'spirituality'. They will go away.

  Unfortunately you're on to a loser either way.

  Option 1 - she stays a witness and either gets DF'd - in which case you'll be resented by her and her family for ever more - or marries you and becomes, in their eyes, 'unevenly yoked' - in which case you'll be resented by her and her family for ever more (spot the pattern?).

  Option 2 - she moves in and gets DF'd and you'll be resented....well, you get the picture.

  Life's too short for this - move on and find someone not screwed up by a cult.

  Good luck.

  I still stand by it tbh. I struggle to understand why people put themselves through the grind of being a good JW when they don't believe a word of it. I can understand the not wanting to upset any family that are still going but the innate dishonesty of not being myself would be too much for me.
