Wholewheat, why are you so interested in details about You Know or other possibly active JW's on this board? I ask because you haven't really exibited a caring spirit so far in your first four days here. What are you hoping to gain from this information?You Know,
Are you an active brother in the truth? If there are do you know of any other active witnesses on this board that haven't turned on the Society?
the dr branch-coordinator at the annual missionary-meeting: .
jehovah has to hurry with the chinese population if he wants to give them a change in armagedon.
wholewheat says:
C'mon, you know and I know that the brother was joking! Your doing the very thing that you apostates accuse the Society of doing, and that is taking quotes out of context.Wholewheat, I understand you are trying to stick up for this brother. The point is, do you realize how ignorant the comment he made was and how it illustrates the attitude JW's have about people who are not in the organization?
there was a middle-aged woman in our kingdom hall who was a long time pioneer.
she was a very warm and loving woman and so when she announced her plans for a family vacation one year some of us got together and took up a little collection so that she would have some extra money to spend.
after all, she was working hard for jehovah and werent we supposed to show our appreciation?.
wholewheat says:
Tell me the Watchtower that states that I will be disfellowshiped for being on the computer. There is no where in the Bible where it forbids Christians from getting on the computer and talking to faceless people with silly monikers. C'mon Dutchie, you can do better than that!
Are you claiming ignorance of the Society's ban on talking to disfellowshipped ones or do you really think it is okay with the elders?
does anyone remember how the society joined the "disco sucks" movement of the late 70's?
i remember reading in the mags about how disco was created by homos and that it has an "immoral beat" (whatever that means!
) it was also mentioned not to go see "saturday night fever" because someone gets a blowjob in the movie.. in our congregation, we had a special meeting about disco because people would request disco songs at our once-a-month jw skating party at the local skating rink.
I attended a District Convention where the District Overseer actually had that song played backwards for the whole arena! (another one bites the dust by queen). When you play it backwards, it sounds like "decide to smoke marijuanna".
what do americans in general actually really know about the big outside world outside of their own culture?.
it's certainly not just me, but for years since early childhood in fact, it has been commonly accepted by many, that americans in general are the biggest ignorant fools residing almost anywhere on the planet, yet they still do their damndest to have everyone believe what a great nation they are.
is it even beyond their comprehension how foolish they look often to the rest of the world, the fact that they have so little understanding of problems on the worldwide front?.
wholewheat says:
America is the "False Prophet" of Revelation.Glad you could get in on the USA bashing today, wholewheat. Wouldn't want to miss out on that! Is this the best you can do for the forum?
there is a poster on this board with the moniker 'd8ta' that has called a female poster a 'bitch' and another female poster a 'whore' and yet you men let him get away with it.
this is disgusting!
is this what leaving jehovah does to people?
wholewheat says in another thread:
You called Island Woman a 'bitch'. She is a lady who expressed her fellings and you have belittled her and degraded her with your derogatory name calling. It is obvious that you hate women. You mistreat them, just as you did DJ in the chat room. You are one sick 'dude', and I feel that even though there are men in here that are no longer witnesses, they most assuredly are not going to stand by and watch you bash a female. You are a coward!!wholewheat, why are you obsessing over this? What is with this campaign of yours against D8TA? IslandWoman can clearly defend herself! I can't believe you started another thread on this. Don't you have anything contructive or interesting to bring to this forum?
i may be alone here, but are you more interested in jw docrines, change of docrines, watchtowers, km's and othe jw publications now that you are an ex member as opposed to when you were a witness?.
i realised this the other day, when i was cleaning out a wardrobe and there was a "knowledge" book, i got so excited and read the whole thing, looking up scriptures as i went when they were quoted.
(this was accompanied by a soundtrack of consistant scoffs, snorts and "what the hells".?").
wholewheat says:
So you were never a witness? People that are worshippers of Jehovah love to study and do research.Yes, wholewheat, I see. Hmmmm. A real JW being disinterested at the Watchtower study? Impossible!
do all of you ex-jehovah's witnesses get upset when you are called an apostate?
you all call each other apostates, so why should you all get upset if i call you apostates?
if you don't like being called 'apostate', what title would you prefer?
wholewheat,
In the four days you have been posting on this board you used the word "apostate" or "ExJW" probably a thousand times. Are you obsessed?
yeah, why is some dipf&&ck named whole wheat allowed on this board?
i say we toast it have it for breakfast
wholewheat says:
'If your hand stumbles you, cut it off, and if your eye stumbles you, pluck it out.' This shows that stumbling your fellow man is a serious offense. Sometimes, when you show respect for others in areas where they are sensitive you can open the door to teach them about God's Kingdom. Upsetting them will surely close any door of opportunity.I see you have abandoned this thinking, wholewheat!
i'm curious: what rules have you dealt with that were just "too much" -- whether they were "official" (i.e.
in print) or not?.
i think a good, general one is r-rated movies.
Wholewheat says:
When someone dedicates their life to Jehovah, they make the choice to serve Him and uphold His standards. There are no "rules" as you describe them, just guidelines for clean living for a Christian to live by.
Some folks who have been disfellowshipped for violating the rules might think this notion is pretty silly. Do you really believe this?
