With such a horrible prophetic record, failure to stop suffering, constant undoing and redoing of covenants, constant killing of animals and plants only to redo them again, but slightly different from previous ones (otherwise called evolution), I guess he eats crow every day.

I don't come to this site as often, and I post even less, but learning about the possibility of your family not being included in the 2014 or 2015 publishers count and "in the cult" statistics makes me very happy and I needed to write my own comment. I wish you and your family the best. In spite of the almost certain rough times in the near future, I know you will be glad that this phase of your life is almost over.
Congratulations! Now you have the opportunity to be happier and more useful to humanity.
Fight the good fight. If you live in the Los Angeles area count me in your new circle of friends, if not, count me too.

Do you believe what is presented in this video? Was it staged? I think more likely a bunch of JW friends stop by to say Hi. Even if there is true to what is presented in minute 3:28, it's not representative at all.
Don't waste time. Go straight to slighltly before minute 3:28

Leaving the JWs, experiencing Christianity and finding freedom! (But it took awhile)
by im_free inthis is my first post here.. i was raised in "the truth", and am an ex-bethelite who worked in brooklyn for several years back in the 90's.
a few years after i left bethel, i started to become disillusioned after doing research about the society and reading crisis of conscience (i know..i wasn't supposed to do that lol).
i eventually stopped attending meetings and going out in service.

welcome Im free
I am an agnostic (as an attempt to remain neutral and objective), but I lean towards no God or the God of Einstein and Spinoza, that is, an impersonal force that maintains the laws of Physics that regulate the universe. At 13 or 14 I left religion for good, but it is during the last 2 years that I have learned about the Bible, JW's, Christianity and Judaism. To keep it short, an in-depth study of all those four subjects is likely to lead anyone with an open mind and a strong interest in truth in the direction of atheism or agnosticism. Higher and lower criticism of the Bible is far more interesting than any religious Biblical study you have ever had, or any meeting or convention you have ever attended, but it most certainly will push you away from your belief in a personal God.

What year did the NWT drop John 7:53-8:11? Was it ever in the NWT?
by Terry infrom biblegateway:.
jesus forgives a woman taken in adulterythis story, beloved for its revelation of god's mercy toward sinners, is found only in john.
it was almost certainly not part of john's original gospel.

Sacramento : "There is no "new" or "contrary" theology that is effected by it's inclusion and since there is actually much to learn from that passge, why not keep it in there?"
Actually, there are huge problems. According to "Jesus" nobody can judge anyone for any sin, because everybody has sinned. That's irrational and leads to anarchy, but it has the emotional appeal. Besides "Jesus" wants to have it both ways. In the passage, he proposes to ignore the law while claiming in other places in the Gospels to adhere to the law (Matthew 5:18). That's hypocrisy
The story is not wonderful, it only sound wonderful. If we follow its message, then we don't need a code of laws, police or even a government that metes out punishment. The story promotes anarchy until the only worthy of being a judge comes to judge. Wouldn't the Governing Body love to use this scripture in front of the judge when they are accused in court of protecting pedophiles.

Welcome speedracer,
I was born in the same decade as you. I have never been a JW but I have taken a very serious interest in JW's since my daughter got baptized two years ago.
If you want to get deeper into JW's deception, I highly recommend that you read The Gentile Times Reconsidered by Carl Olof Jonsson. That may get you even deeper into other subjects such as history of antiquity, archaelogy, ancient calendars, the Bible, and definitely JW's. Any of the subjects I just listed will in turn catch your interest and get you even deeper into very interesting stuff such as Bible Scholarship and history of Christianity and Judaism. There's no end to how far you can go once you start learning TTATT.

A good God will kill for eternity people like Albert Schweitzer, a man born in a rich family, very smart, talented, with fame and money in his future, but instead of capitalizing on his great gifts to get all the fame and money he wanted, he founds a hospital and works as a doctor in a poor village in Africa. But that same God will save a JW for simply baptizing and swearing allegiance to the Governing Body. Where is the common sense in the mind of JW's?
