I didn't trust anything I read on websites, but I googled and used websites to get information to verify. I forgot where, but found a link that had pdf downloads of every WT, Awake, etc, back to when it first began. Seeing in print what was quoted and it being very accurate. Then I also looked up the real story about Rutherford and his takeover, found the sifting brochures, etc.

What was the EXACT exJW website you first visited and why EXACTLY did you visit it?
by ILoveTTATT2 ini had two episodes of visiting exjw websites:one time around 2007 when i just googled "jehovah´s witnesses" and dared to look at those sites.
i was scared and i promised myself i would never come back to them.
however, that one didn´t really count.the moment that woke me up was this:i got to know that whitney heichel was a jw and murdered by another jw, because i overheard that conversation in a kingdom hall.i looked up the news and in one of the news comments, there was one where an exjw was complaining that they were hijacking her funeral and they were really trying to downplay the fact that her murderer was a jw... and then it said "visit jwfacts.com"... which i did.and the rest... is history.what exactly got you onto an apostate website when you woke up?

Yes I am "packin" just as over 3 million americans. Most of the worst crimes are commited in GFZ
Wonder why you got dislikes. GFZ are schools, federal buildings, places where alcohol is primarily served. (bars,clubs), and they are the worst spots.

She lied saying she wasn't being coached when her coach admitted he was coaching her. Is she going to a JD committee for publically lying and bring shame to the Governing Body?

Has Your Political Views Affected Your Buying Habits or Entertainment?
by minimus inwill you avoid nike or tend to not buy apparel because of their support of colin kap?
would you stop doing business with anyone simply because you disagree with their politics?
in california, in and out burger, democrats were being told not to support the chain because they donated to republicans.. will politics affect your spending habits?.

It does if the company is attempting to silence or push political views
When companies announce, "We are no longer doing business with these people because they supported Trump, etc" thinking they'll get more business, I'll refrain and hope they hurt themselves.
Or Target, "If a grown man wants to walk in the store and say he is a women that day, we will let him in the restroom or dressing room with your daughter, and if you don't like it, you're a hateful phobic bigot" - that turned out well for them, they lost a LOT of business and stock value.
Nike is crap. I should start a shoe company. Most shoes and sneakers sold are absolute junk, not worth $10. Fall apart within a few months, etc.

Even more stupid was a recent interview with the main jw lawyer at broadcasting, telling that his wife warned him that higher education changed him negative and hé had to watch out.
He had to 'fake' that so he could get his high pay client

We find ourselves in atemporary situation where we are about 34.5 crores short of what is needed until the old branch is sold. Once we get the money and build the new branch with your free labor, when the old branch is sold, we will lovingly keep and transfer that money to the USA headquarters to lovingly provide needed comforts for the GB. In about 5 years after building the new branch, and with your generous free labor, we will sell the new branch for a nice profit and send those funds to the GB as well and tell you that the branch is no longer needed since everything can be printed from JW.org.

Why are public schools allowed? Why is education through high school allowed?
"Don't get higher education, don't do anything to increase your pay, work 40 to 80 hours a week and struggle with bills, and don't forget to get some high limit credit cards so you can make large regular contributions too!"

Why not extend your child's life and take the consequences?
by I_love_Jeff injehovah's witnesses & blood transfusions.
if your son or daughter were badly burned, he or she would require regular whole blood transfusions.
as a good jehovah's witness, it is your duty to refuse this procedure and watch your child die instead.

Jesus healed on the sabbath. That principle alone means blood transfusions to save a life would take priority to stance on blood.

The word for Seraphim also translates to snake or serpent??? Really can change or explain bible meanings
by Bad_Wolf ini was answering a post whose conversations went into the book of enoch in which i had read before.
i came upon information that seraphim also translates to serpent.
i have long thought the old testament does not mean what most religions have interpreted.

If seraphim translates to serpent and if satan or opposer or other entities, the dragon or serpent in revelation, etc......
Then the fiery serpents that bite the israelites in the wilderness, fiery seraphim. the serpent in the garden of eden is a seraphim. Seraphim are described as fiery.
Anybody read hebrew here?

My sister married a guy who didn't want sex with her at all. She ended up so desperate she had sex with a stranger. She was the one publicly reproved not him. He might be gay or asexual, not marriage material, not to a woman anyway. Of course being a JW she didn't find out until they were married. She's been miserable with him for over forty years. Don't do that!
Wow, how old was he? I usually hear that about females in younger years then it reverses as get older. I knew of one guy who married a virgin and was married to her for about 20 years. First time they had sex she didn't like it, said it felt like poop or something. They only did it 2 or 3 times in their entire marriage. Another guy got married so he could have sex w/ his gf, and he told me later one he was lucky if he got laid once a month. (Those were all JWs) when I got out, I started to hear about guys. Females in 40s to 60's who never get anything from their husbands.
I say live with who you intend to marry. Then you'll have a good idea if you are sexually compatible. If both are in the mood or dtf and no stress on that level it's good. If one is always feeling pressuring or too much or too little then won't be good.
