Controller, actually for me I agree with what question mans interpretation said. I WAS an introvert JW, now I'm an extrovert exJW. I've learned that im a natural leader in my circles and I love to have a voice. Previously I had said my personality hadn't changed, but that part has :).

Any other religions match the JW's on these items....?
by EndofMysteries insince many things have changed, new religions, and religions changing doctrine, etc, for everytime a jw says nobody except jws, 1. refuse to go to war.
2. refuse to be in politics 3. preach about god's kingdom.
4. don't allow sin (dfing for fornication, etc).

1. There have been many many religious conscientious objectors over the course of history. I believe the Quakers are the strongest anti military religion, but even there, if someone chose to go to war im sure they don't disfellowship. In my current church, there are people who have been in the military and people whose sons are in the military, and there are also many people who would NEVER support war and definitely not fight in one. The thing is, most churches allow a persons conscience to make this decision, but do not punish people for going with their own conscience. The same goes for number 4., generally,actually as well. The church is there to guide people, not condemn. Their sin is between them and God,for the most part.
2. Refuse to get involved with politics....personally I think this is stupid. I think it's good for the church as a whole not to get involved with politics, but for individual members, I believe politics is very important. For any church to ban its members from being political is taking away a huge freedom that should be a human right. I wonder if witnesses voted in Germany in the 30's, would Hitler have ever won that election? 3. Churches talk about the kingdom all the time, but usually its with the application 'let your will take place'... We know gods will is that we take care of the weak and poor. Most churches try to help spread Gods kingdom now, by helping make the world a better place.

TV.JW.ORG (September 2015) - Generation explained again
by Designer Stubble inguess the overlapping generation concept is difficult for most to comprehend.

Oubliette, they should have copied your graph more precisely, it's a lot better!!! Theirs is a mess TRYING to be yours.
They can't face this simple truth: Their religion is based on false prophecy. They're jumping through hoops trying to still make it work, but it's quite pathetic. That it WORKS on many of their members highlights their much better skill: brainwashing and manipulation. But they can't brag about those skills, can they?

Ok I'm still ENFJ again, with dissonant 15's test. Apparently I share personality types with King David, Abraham Lincoln, and Johnny Depp :).

A comforting thought
by Truth and Justice ini have not been on the board in a long time, and as i started reading some of the posts, i could not believe how many new faces or names have appeared on this site.
it is certainly alot more than i could count.
it builds more confidence in me, that the other have of my immediate family will open their eyes.

I left a few years ago because after a lifetime of doubts, it was finally time to start living my own life, and I didn't want my kids to be pressured to get baptized and repeat the cycle of guilt/obligation, and I had found Christ and wanted to go to a different church and could not pass the bread and wine at another memorial. Those three reasons.
I do hope there is a mass awakening, and with kids growing up with things like the Hunger Games and standing up to institutions that do NOT have your best interest at heart, but their own agendas, and seeing the intolerance and stupidity of the highest up members for your own eyes, instead of thinking they are some super wise mystical men, and some realizing the attempted mind control of Caleb and Sophia for small children, and the org flip flopping on so many teachings, and so many people hurt by their practices and doctrine...and through all of this, a great lack of love, and only backbiting and judgment, people should be waking up, or at least slacking off.

They've Exposed Their Hand
by OneFingerSalute inso the wtb&t$ have either intentionally or unwittingly exposed their hand in this mornings wt indoctrination article.. this is a direct quote from par.
"regardless of how long we have been in the truth, we must tell others about jehovah's organization.
" the question is, "what obligation does psalm 48: 12-14 place on us?".

I don't understand what the 'regardless how long we have been in the truth' part is trying to convey. Anyone have any ideas? Like, maybe if people have been a witness a long time, they know they're supposed to direct people to Jehovah, but they better direct them to the org?
