  I have never read this before.

  It is so sickening to find out the real truth of a matter.

  We were all conned by a lying snake oil salesman.

  hey everyone.. i'm trying to convince mrs.objectivetruth to join the forum, but she's a bit nervous.

  perhaps if you all can give her some words of encouragement, it will convince her to join the jwn family... btw she already knows ttatt.. she's just not convinced to join the forum..

  Hi there.

  Pretty well all of us are harmless.

  Everyone involved with WT has been lied to and abused.

  We are here to help each other, to help move all of us forward, in a good and caring way.

  No one gets left behind.

  I like the worldwide brotherhood aspect of JWN.

  I live in the North Pacific.

  Feel free to jump aboard at any time.

  We will catch you. We won't let you fall.

  I look forward to welcoming you, when you decide the time is right.

  Until then, take care.

  "Headquarter's" will not rock the boat too much, until they have got all the pledges back from congo's telling how much they will "donate" each month.

  I do not think they will really start rocking the boat until they have unpacked their bags in Warwick.

  I am waiting with anticipation NOT, for the Big Surprising New Lite the GB comes up with after they have gotten their new home by the lake, built, furnished and landscaped and have settled in.

  This is just May 2014. They will be moving into their new home, the Fall of 2016.

  1918 was a "biggie" year, so was 1919.

  What will the GB Monster pull out of its rear end for " nu -lite" in 2018 and 2019???

  I agree that change is in the air along the lines of re-branding.

  The Watchtower and Awake must be totally embarrassing for drones to keep flogging at people's doors.

  An internet based ministry??? Hahaha Wouldn't it be funny if they tell the sheeples that it is too dangerous to go d2d in this old system???

  Better to set up rolly carts in well lighted areas. lol (What is the price??? Two for $80.00??? ) lol lol

  Feeling disloyal

  by stirred but not shaken in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i've been visiting here for about a year or so, but didn't really feel compelled to participate other than reading the various posts that interested me.. there's been that uncomfortable feeling of being disloyal to god, the organization, many friends and relatives.. i've been associated since birth.

  after 65 + years of service within this organization and actually enjoying that time, it troubled me to find myself wanting to express feelings that were contrary to all that time of "faithfulness".

  those years were filled with progressive "privileges and responsibilities" even at a high level, and there was considerable success in our evangelizing activity.

  Hi Stirred, I learned TTATT at 61. I read Ray Franz's "Crisis of Conscience" through the night and was out of WT at 5 AM the next morning.

  I do not like liars. I do not like being scammed, used and abused. I do not like those who do it.

  I have seen much cruelty and double standards.

  Wait on Jehovah is a saying by which it means nothing will happen. Someone just got a free JW... Get out of Jail Card, again.

  When I "forgot" lol, to go back to meetings etc. it was terribly lonely, at first, and a little scary. It is still lonely now, but less so.

  It is wonderful to wake up on the weekends and not have to go in service or to meetings.

  Being "normal" is fantastic!

  Freedom to think, is priceless.

  I wish you well in your journey of Life with your wife.

  I read labels and most of the time I have noticed when they take "fat" away, they replace it with some type of sugar.

  Japanese Tea Ceremony

  by jgnat in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  when pushed in a discussion this spring, about what i believe now, i likened spirituality to a japanese tea ceremony.

  i believe a good part of our experience and knowing comes from a vast well of the inexpressible.

  try and explain it with words is just not the same.

  Legend has it that the first Japanese Emperor to drink tea, was Emperor Saga, the 52nd, Emperor of Japan. He ruled from 809 AD - 823 AD.

  Thank you for sharing your beautiful day with us.

  It is now 2003.... Where is Armageddon?

  by Nosferatu in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i find it extremely amusing how each year is passing without armageddon.

  "for the year 2000, i visualize a world transformed into a beautiful paradise!

  but i don't think that either the present world or its rulers will live to see that day.. we are living in the last days of the system of things.

  Every day, week, month, year, decade, century, Watch Tower keep their scare tactics working, it means the WT, with their forced "donations" and all Kingdom Halls and Assembly Halls are in their name, keeps bringing in more money, than is going out.

  It is all about WT power, control and money.

  WT's motto: Keep the Publishers, poor, uneducated and feeling guilty. (Easier to guide, direct and fleece).

  Makes Watch Tower shameful and deceitful and cruel.

  here i am, send me, send me.. .

  now that i have you singing a kingdom melody... which jw songs still stick with you?

  that one seems to have the same deep value to me as the national anthem or one of the great christian hymns.

  That song.. Here I am, send me, send me, got me in big trouble. That song gave me a "Spiritual High"

  Embarrassed by Aggressive Apostates

  by ShempLives in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  xjw protests & videos.

  .. i am disturbed by some of the more aggressive apostates posting videos on youtube,like "a jw memorial to remember" where a drunk man goes to a memorial and downs the whole glass of wine as a sort of protest.

  this video and others like it received positive comments from aawa members.

  People in TV-land, movie-land, executive types, even people in front of a jury for murder,

  take time and pay money to be critiqued, to see how "other's" view them,

  hoping to look good, and be seen and thought of, in a favorable light.

  Some of the findings (sorry, I don't have proof, just what I recall reading/hearing)

  is that people tend to listen more to professional sounding and looking people.

  That is one of the reasons, GB demands strictness in JW dress.

  I have seen a few EX-JW YouTubes.

  The ones I have seen, are in no way professional, and to me their appeal, is limited.

  Sorry, just my OHO.
