Muhammed (pbuh) In The Bible - Fact or Fiction??

by Muslim in

in the name of god, most compassionate, most merciful.

he will glorify jesus (pbuh), and he will guide mankind into all truth.

in the above verses we read "if i go not away, the comforter will not come unto you; but if i depart, i will send him unto you.

Paths along the way, after the borg, experiences?

by LyinEyes in

all of us who were once jw's have had a hard time trying to find our place in the world.

many have just begun their journey since leaving the borg, only recently.

others have put it far behind them many years ago, even decades they have been away from it.

i was raised in it.. left at 18, now i'm 26. i see no difference between religions, spirituality is a form of mental illness, anthropologists will look back and say wtf???

as dub escapee's we had a clear example of bible-based insanity, so we should be able to identify similar lunacy more easily than others.. check out the posts of these cattle who leave the jw's just to join the mormons or some such.... ** i had SUCH a welcome experience at my new CHURCH this sunday!!! SO much more christian that those nasty hova's wickedness!!!**

the weak join the witnesses (or similar), the strong leave - the mighty do like samson

i went through it all in my pathetic little search for dog, nothing means anything.. all sh*t stinks, no matter the colour. i lost my family because they like the smell.. is it just because we're westerners (north american) or is everyone everywhere so horrified by reality?

my only point, i've fallen into satanism, i love it.. it makes me feel strong, loving, and impervious.. nothing hurts me, and i love the story of lucifer... my point is always too extreme, probably just over-compensation...

has anyone else noticed a compelling interest in the "dark side" since leaving???

please answer if you mean it....

Does God still exist for you?

by nakedmvistar in

i'm quite new to this forum (only a handful of posts).

but from what i've read up to now, it seems apparent that some of you have abandoned your belief in a god.

is this because of trauma brought about by the jw religion?

Demon questions

by truthseeker1 in

i have some questions for the techies out there:.

if demons hang out on websites waiting for unwitting jws to download them when they go to that particular website, do they travel faster over highspeed lines vs phone lines?.

are demons capped at a 56k transfer rate over a phone line?

you all are awesome. i haven't laughed so hard in ages.

DID YOU ENJOY SHERHERDING CALLS?

by minimus in

jw

elders are supposed to be loving, caring shepherds.

when a problem arises, elders are supposed to be there.

visiting in homes was something the organization always stressed.

the three little judicials;

one little piggie followed me up and down the streets spying. to catch a glimpse of the alleged acts. could discern a bad word at 100 paces and surmise independant thinking at 1000. probably counted the whole thing as field service time.

the other little piggie broke into tears when they disfellowshipped me. an overwhelming sense of righteousness. the last little judicial foamed and frothed and lapsed into ancient sanskrit at my very wretchedness.

i only gave them one visit and that was it

shepharding calls suck because it means they haven't left you yet.

growing up scared of Armageddon

by bittersweet in

i was just curious if any of you growing up in the truth were overly scared of armageddon?.

when my mom came into the org.

in the 70's,the only so called kids book was the paradise lost book.the pictures in that book scared the pants off me!at night when i was lying in bed,if i would hear a loud plane go over head,or there was a thunder storm,i was sure it was the start of armageddon and i would be sooooo scared.i was wondering if i was the only one overly scared,or if their were others.. also,was anyone out there extremely frightened of the demons?i would hear all these crazy experiences of people having problems with demons,and i was sooo frightened they would come bother me.maybe i was just a big old scaredycat,but if any one else has any experiences,please post them!

goatlike

at my house every thunderstorm had my sisters praying.. must be armageddon.. i was already sure i was going to die so i came up with plans for a house i'd build where i'd be surrounded by righteous bro's & sis's so jehovah couldn't get me without going through them first.

remember the stories about demonic possession from buying a second hand item that was "Demonised"? i was horrified that there were demons all around me, until i began to realise that if they really were evil spirits from satan, i'd really like to meet them!

NO FREE TIME!! at all..

i finally found another corrupt young bro in the congregation, we both told everyone we were

auxilliary pioneering together that summer. we must've looked pretty strange in the video

arcades dressed in full suits, packing bb guns in our magazine bags.
