  jws exist because people want an escape from the modern world and are willing to give up intellectual freedom to get it..

  Because some people like to feel like they are more special and more righteous than others, and like they have all the answers.

  anyone else notice this on the last video of the regional convention 2016?.

  frame stills:.

  conclusion: it seems that the paradise will not be only the end of wickedness but also the end of the jws typical cheap polyester suits :-p.

  I get a weird new agey vibe from those pics.

  I know their motive is manipulation and playing on the emotions. But you know what? These videos say one thing: HEY EVERYONE WE ARE A CRAZY CULT!

  Cha ching, those are good points. Often the extremism is what causes people to drift further away instead of toward them. At an important time for us, me and my husband heard the 'no one can really love you unless they also love Jehovah' drama, and it pissed us off, because a family member who wasn't a witness had recently died, and he would have ripped his own heart out for us. It was like, my God! They are so manipulative and blatant liars, just because they want to hold onto their control!!

  Maybe that will happen for James's daughter too!

  Oh my God!!! She might even wake up....They ALL might wake up!! (With time, as problem addict said...and not the way you might imagine...) As your daughter said...everything is NOT all black and white. Realizing that is the first step to waking up, isn't it??!? Just hope the Regional Convention doesnt mess with their heads!!

  (Side note...do you think they don't say District anymore because of Hunger Games?)

  I just don't understand this, what am I missing???

  by Greybeard in

  as i am watching this video about changes at bethel, the speaker said, "aren't we glad the faithful and discrete slave continues to make adjustments when necessary.

  what about this change?

  "finally, we examined why jesus’ arrival to appoint the faithful slave over all his belongings did not occur in 1919 but will take place during the great tribulation" that is from this online watchtower article last paragraph: https://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/w20130715/jesus-prophecy-last-days/ .

  Greybeard, don't feel too guilty or stupid for what you told your son back then. You were brainwashed at the time, and you were just trying to salvage what you could of your fatherhood and teach your son something on your way out. Yeah it is regrettable now that you see the religion as total B.S., but really at the time you were just doing what you could do. Be more angry at the people who do the manipulating. They just want to stay in control and will do anything to keep stringing people along and making sure they stay scared, guilt ridden and slave bound.

  How to shake up Jdubs...

  by Rather Be the Hammer in

  i didn't attend the meeting last night, but my in husband came home and was quite shocked because there was a letter announcing that there will be no wt-library cd-rom any more, and..... no more calendar.. he said there was a lot of talking and noise when that was announced.. i didn't expect the calender to go, by the way.

  and my husband sounded really concerned, talking about how society is cutting down.

  i love it when he says with a tone of surprise in his voice: 'you were right, now they want us to do everyting digital, and throw out the printed stuff.

  Will Bro. Rogers be DF'd posthumously for drug addiction?

  by ShirleyW in

  2. friends

  some have been df'd for suspicion of smoking cigarettes, yet bro.

  rogers death is because of an addiction, fentanyl is what they are saying is the drug that did him in which was reported on the news as being more potent than heroine.

  why is it that some nosy sister can report you because someone who looked like you was in the parking lot the same time as she was, yet bro.

  http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2016/06/02/prince-autopsy-death-toxicology/.

  minneapolis (wcco/ap) — autopsy results show that prince died of a self-administered overdose of fentanyl, and his death was ruled accidental.. the 57-year-old singer was found dead april 21 at his minneapolis-area estate.

  the findings confirm suspicions that opioids played a role in the musician’s death.. after he died, authorities began reviewing whether an overdose was to blame and whether he had been prescribed drugs in the preceding weeks.. according to the national institute on drug abuse, fentanyl is more potent than morphine, and is “sometimes used to treat people with chronic pain who are physically tolerant to opiates.”.

  I feel bad for him. The guy was in terrible pain. But also I'm angered 'lesser' drone type witnesses are punished for the same thing.
