it just blows me away!

by stillin in

a friendly group of young people came in the drive yesterday.

they all got out with smiles and said that they were looking to put canned food into the "food bank," i assumed for people who need to eat.

i wasn't sure what my wife could part with from the pantry but surely we could gather something for somebody who has much less!

I was just pondering that very same thing on my threadhttp://www.jehovahs-witness.net/members/private/224618/1/spilled-the-beans and I quote it here:

The freedom from guilt that I feel is a gift like none other. It is helping me through my pain. I see people differently now. I don't see the walking dead but rather the good in people. I'm finding that I love people in general more now. I care more about others more than I ever did when I saw them as lost causes. In fact I want to get involved in charities now to help those in need. I complained and murmered about service. WHy? because it's not really helping. I wouldn't regret one second helping those in need even if I never get anything back. The day I realized the WT was a huge joke I went out driving to clear my head. I saw this old women in a wheel chair sitting in the median on the on ramp to the interstate. I stopped and gave her everything in my middle consol which was probably 3 dollars or so. I felt better about that little deed than all the preaching I ever did. Jesus said that giving is better than recieving and he is absolutely correct as long as you actually GIVE! As a brainwashed JW I always felt too guilty to dedicate myself to those kinds of persuits because that would take away from the preaching work. I think that many xJW's like myself are genuine and want to do good towards people not as an excuse to just go hog wild and go crazy. When your indoctrination stops you from helping people in real and tangible ways that should be a huge red flag!

State of Victoria has announced that they will investigate ALL religions... including the Watchtower

by Alfred in

a friend just showed me a message from steven unthank on facebook where he mentioned (about 4 hours ago) that the state of victoria will be launching an investigation into all religions, including the jehovah's witnesses... he also mentioned that he will likely testify.. i don't know anything else about this because the message was brief, but i assume it has something to do with the protection of pedophiles.... has anyone else heard this yet?.

thecrushed

This will only entreach all witnesses even further. I believe David Koresh said similar things to his diciples before the govt raided him too. The way i see it all Cults know they have a limited time to operate before they piss enough people off and then make predictable self prophesy to keep people in till the bitter end. Am I right or am I right?

Since the early WTCD doesn't have older publication

by thecrushed in

i didn't ask why they don't because their own literature makes them out as horrible frauds!

my question is how do you get a hold of stuff like the "finished mystery" "the divine plan of the ages" and other pertinent false doctrine that has been swept under the rug and locked in the coffers at wt headquarters?

i feel so helpless because if i show my wife info on the net she will just write it off as apostate and altered like we have all been trained to think.

thecrushed

really seems like they wanna snuff it out of existence. They say that its increasing light as we can handle it but why would 1874 or 1914 or any other date be any harder to handle? I've talked to witnesses about 1975 incident and they swear up and down the society never predicted anything but only that people were drawing their own conclusions and were stumbled by there own presumption and pushing ahead? Anyone care to quote specific publications that bare this out as false?

I had to spill the beans because she confronted me and said she thought I was cheating on her because I've been so distant. She cried all night and I was hysterical as well. I tried to tell her about the origins of Wt dabbling in the occult but she doesnt believe me. I was too upset as well. It is no wonder people commit suicide because of this Cult. I also told her we are in a cult and that the patterns are there and that the patterns are universal for all cults but she refuses to listen. She said she will stay with me no matter what but her mother is coming up in 2 days and it will start all over again and I'll have 2 women yelling and threatening me. I really have thought about ending it all but my love and devotion to her keeps me from it. My prediction is her emotions will get the better of her and cause her to tell the elders then I will be shunned by my family for the rest of my life and stuck in a loveless marriage to a women I love madly. She denied that this is conditional love that they preach! The brainwashing runs very deep. This is not love it is hate and intolorence. I'm at work trying to hide my pain and I'm sure she is too. My heart is palpitating and I'm sweating. I feel like I'm going through drug withdraw.

I can't really substantiate anything really can I? I know that everyone isn't lying just because they are evil satanic Apostates but she doesn't know that. I guess this thread should be about how to prove from just the currently available literature and a bible that the doctrine a complete sham and a bag of lies. Do they have it trully locked down solid or are there holes in their rusty armor? How should I go about researching the info without it being officially Apostate?

Thoughts?

6 YEARS AFTER FADING, I RUN INTO JW'S FROM MY OLD HALL

by AK MCGRATH in

i knew one day it would happen.

i often wondered how i would react.

well, sometimes things don't work out exactly as planned.. last weekend i went back home to chi-town to finally clean out a locker my sister and i share.

thecrushed

there are some repressed gay guys in our hall and it's very sad. They are very lonely. To think that they can't look forward to a relationship with anyone till this fantasy system comes is horrifiying. I feel the same for all the bitter women over 30 that have basically missed the bus on getting a man.

So, did the Memorial answer the question posed in their invitation?

by poppers in

jw
friends

just wondering if they addressed and answered the question - something about "how do you view jesus?

".

thecrushed

The one holiday JW's have and they can't even partake!! One year when I'm finally out I'm gonna go and have me some wine cheese and crackers!

They always brag about there being over twice as many that attend the momorial thinking that these are interested ones. I just don't buy that.

Poetry and healing philosophy

by thecrushed in

i wrote these 2 poems soon after i found out that i had been under mind ctrl all my life along with my family as far back as i can remember.

i hope this gives someone solace because of its message of loving thru the pain.

hate can be a consuming thing and left unchecked can destroy us and everyone around us.

I hope this gives someone solace because of its message of Loving thru the pain. Hate can be a consuming thing and left unchecked can destroy us and everyone around us. The watchtower can do this to a person leaving them bitter and broken. Let us not ever give them a reason to snear or jest that it was our own fault and that it is our punishment by God.

"Shards"

These shards of my life that are scattered among my bitter pain
The sane and the insane live together and dance its tune in my broken heart.
Look inside yourself, find courage not crutches of Belief
find the power you never knew you had
that has always been there

Look inside yourself to find the source
Behind the curtain there is only pain
Belief is an addiction and our greatest affliction
that your soul screams to awaken from

Awaken and see the world as it is
Fantasy and delusion only bleeds
the soul of its power
and the mind of its sanity

“Love is Higher”

These madmen and all there desperate control,
Beats them down, makes them afraid to make a sound
It takes a touch of madness to deal with the pain

Denial and Paranoia is all they know,
Drink the water and assimulate
Take your medication and don’t you dare contemplate
Walk in the dark in your Imprisoned mind.

I feel the walls closing in,
The hypocrites are rising,
we are being sealed in a box
with no air left, empty and bereft
in the name of peace,
the beast is disguising,

There will be peace
but not that way,
Hate spreads like wildfire
But love will elevate us higher.

For the truth of this,
The lack of bliss glamour and gliss
I pray, that mankind, will awake
and find the way

Remember though,to be aglow
Because this is true love
With love that is action
be aware, do not simply gawk
when opportunity knocks,

Don't let fear and hate
Dominate your heart
Give in and it will soon be
a funeral pyre.

away from the face of this madness,
there is a gentle place where we
rest our weary hearts,
In the face of all the sadness,

Love is higher than law
Love that is a burning fire,
awaken and head love’s call
before hate makes us a funeral pyre

I wanna leave you with a few wise words of Krishnamurti who I highly reccommend for the metaphysical among us.

The moment you have in your heart this extraordinary thing called love and feel the depth, the delight, the ecstasy of it, you will discover that for you the world is transformed.

Tradition becomes our security, and when the mind is secure it is in decay

It's no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.

A man who is not afraid is not aggressive, a man who has no sense of fear of any kind is really a free, a peaceful man.

A consistent thinker is a thoughtless person, because he conforms to a pattern; he repeats phrases and thinks in a groove.

This man's sage advice hits the nail right on the head doesn't it?

Watchtower Dec 2011 Makes fun of fools who think the end is 2012. Ironic??

by Witness 007 in

wachtower dec 1 2011 p.10 "french village faces influx of apocalypse believers...they believe the world will end 21 december 2012 when the end of....ancient maya calander...despite predictions by calamity-howling religious leaders, pseudoscientists, and any other prognosticators, earth will be in existence for a long time...when will this occur?

no human knows.

jehovah's witnesses do not try to predict when god will destroy the wicked...{really?

I haven't read 1984 in quite sometime. I need to visit the library now. ;) It's no coincedence why they left out the older publications in the Watchtower CD.

Threats from the JW mafia (subtle threats)

by thecrushed in

jw
friends

my dad recently found out i wasn't coming to meetings and going out in field service.

he found an excuse to get me alone in his car and just lit into me about it.

he said that if i'm not going out in service that i'm not one of jehovah's witnesses and the brothers won't be able to trust me when the time comes to go undercover due to being attacked by the authorities.

thecrushed

kool Jo

he found out from gossiping elders. They felt that he might be able to get through to me. He failed horribly. He only pushed me further away. JW's don't have a clue what True Love is. Hypocrisy! Religion is a snare and a Racket!
