  when i joined jws my mother said " you know they don't take blood and their suicide rate is much higher than general public.

  in last three years i have known three young brothers all dead at their own hands, a gun ,a rope , plastic bag over head.

  i knew these guys personally, it's one sad story after another.

  Happiness and Freedom On A Paradise Earth?

  by Disassociated Lady 2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  at a recent meeting there was a watchtower article about life in paradise.

  they were saying that even when witnesses finally get there they will still be under the strict instructions from the elders and gb.

  they may be given jobs that they will find unpleasant, also the preaching work will be ongoing because of all the resurrected people who need to learn about why they are given another chance.

  Where's the freedom with religious police ( prince window cleaner). Can you imagine the big Wednesday hierarchy conference, trying to workout how they are going to bullshit Moses about facial hair

  The only question to ask is if the society gave instructions that meeting were optional what would be attendance numbers

  When I joined JWs my mother said " you know they don't take blood and their suicide rate is much higher than general public. In last three years I have known three young brothers All dead at their own hands, a gun ,a rope , plastic bag over head. I knew these guys personally, it's one sad story after another.

  The rope guy, good parents ,dad xelder, looking from distance they ticked all the right boxes, then peer closer the son had been DF twice , once for try before buy with fiancée. I personally seen this kid totally distressed trying to get reinstated. My advice to him ( I still spoke to him) was to emplore the three judges to reflect the decision already made in heaven. I tried to reassure this kid that what the three stooges considered a crime wasn't even a crime in Israel. With time emotional pain become to much. The crazy thing is I asked his father whether any of our church teachings and actions had any detrimental effect on his emotions. WE ALL KNOW answer. I was at his house 1 hour after his dad cut his body from tree SAD SAD SAD.

  The Bag guy ,dad xelder, good kid ,university education,expensive private school , but if kid didn't go to hall you would swear he was batting for the other team (gay). What can I say , acceptance was never going to visit this kid ,bag over head with masking tape ,tragic tragic.

  The gun guy is young father who I think had acceptance issues from his Worldy parents, His JW wife had argument with his mother one hour later he's dead . 6&12 year old daughters left behind.

  The time I was JW there have literally been dozens of deaths in 27 years.

  Mr Morris ,Mr Lett on Wednesday morning when you get up from your luxurious leather chair just check your shoes for these boys blood. Religious dogma has killed again

  if an elder approaches you and wants to arrange a shepherding call one possible response is..... "well thankyou brother, but jehovah is my shepherd.

  i shall lack nothing.

  (ps 23:1) but thanks again anyway".

  tomorrow at the clam meeting i am puting yet another letter in and will be called for another dreadful jc meeting.. 1. what can i say to the elders to show that i am truly repentant?.

  Betty, it's not that men can forgive sin, all church's have confessional arrangements, you have to ask yourself is God behind the arrangement of embarrassing you ( public announcement) at KH. It's good for some humans to unload their hearts before God and friends, but to embarrass has no scriptal basis, even according to 1947 awake disfellowshipping is an pagan practice. Run Betty Run

  One of those defining moments

  by Chook in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  2 years ago i'm at po house for bbq, his wife tells me about her hectic drive to work for one hour.

  i suggest car pooling from other women who work in same area, she goes on to explain that having to spend 1 hour each way with worldy women would affect her spirituality.

  there it is in its finest definition of christian loyalty .

  It was a wake up call for me 18 months ago. Bitten by brown snake in oz. I needed anti venom and of course took it. But then light came on in my head that I think it was same stance a blood factions ,which meant in old days I would have died due to a man made rule.
