The way his family has reacted to you is an example of what JWs are like. It hurts like hell now but you’ll realize it’s the best for you not to date someone in a cult, it doesn’t end well.

Mandatory Vaccinations...are you for or against ??
by minimus inthere’s now a measles outbreak.
there is a jewish sect in new york that refuses vaccines.
some parents do not want their children vaccinated..

One study found that vaccinated kids didn’t get diseases from none vaccinated nor should they since they have been vaccinated. “Houston we have a problem “ . I’m not against vaccination but something is defiantly wrong when vaccinated are getting the diseases their not supposed to get.
Vaccines should be done in a slow responsible way so as to not do harm to the children. Also we should not be vaccinated against diseases that really do no major harm. When they came up with the Ebola vaccine they soon realized their were other strains that they had no vaccine for. So maybe these new out breaks of measles are new strains man hasn’t come up with a vaccine for?

If shunning were no longer a JW policy, how many would leave the Org?
by HiddenPimo inadditionally - if this shunning rule was removed and everyone was made aware of the dirty secrets of the org.. (e.g.
csa-arc / un membership / malawi - mexico contrast / etc.).
would those leaving be higher?.

How Do You Think The USA Should Allow Illegal Immigrants To Freely Flow Into The Country?
by minimus inmany people have said there is no emergency at the border for people illegally coming into the country and furthermore we have an obligation to help these people in a humanitarian way come through.
.
do you think we can just keep on taking in all of these people?

Illegal immigration kills countries from an economically. It no different then sending all the jobs overseas just their coming here. In away it’s worse because when they get here they use government services and healthcare and give not much of anything back.
Its been stated that most immigrants from Latin America send half their paychecks back to their country of origin so they don’t even spend as much here as a legal civilians. It’s a giant sucking of the economy. Jobs stay low paying because illegals will work them and Americans can’t.
I feel for the immigrants and would come here myself if I was one but long term it’s not good for this country.

I think a lot more JWs left after 1995 when they first introduced the overlapping generations. The year books indicated something like 200-250k per year being missed , I think it was worse then that and the number of ones coming in was far less then the 250-300K per year they stated.
After 1975 they lost a lot then rebuilt till 1995 then loss more and have never been able to regain those losses because of the Internet which also went mainstream about 1995.
Another thing to consider about Rattigan’s Numbers , he says they now have 304 congratulations listed in his state but how many of those are foreign language congregations that are only there because a bunch of English speaking JWs are supporting a small handful of people speaking a different language. They in all reality probably have far less then even the 304 they list. Their bleeding like never before!

Who Resurrected Jesus?
by snakeface inone of the heresies of the wt is denying the divinity of christ.
during this "memorial season" they say that jehovah (god the father?
) resurrected jesus.

There are none canonized writings that state that Jesus did not die , was a shape shifter and fooled everyone. Theres even many scriptures that seams to attest to this as some Muslims will bring out. In one of the gospels Jesus is given Myr which can be used as a knock out drug. His legs were not broken and some claim that the scripture stating that he was pierced was added later. Also some claim that water and blood coming out if he was pierced shows he was still alive.
Then his body was taken by a friend and supposedly put into a tomb . Pilote and the Pharisees were not convinced he was dead after only three hours. Mary didn’t recognize him thought he was the gardener because of his shape shifting. In another gospel it looks as though Simon was substituted for him and it is he who was killed, more possible shape shifting.
Did Jesus really die?

Jehovah's Witnesses = Satan's Organization.
by Finkelstein inafter some close scrutiny of the jws religion in its history and its associated organization the ibsa.
we can see a lot problems particularly regarding truthful and accurate bible interpretations.. there are a lot reasons for that, one being that the original builders of the these organizations were not academically trained bible theologians, they got their bible teaching theology from other novices.. .
what they did acquire was something they thought would be advantageous for the proliferation of literature and maybe build up some their own self adoration in the process.. they gave public talks on how christ has returned via by dating the measurements of a pyramid in egypt and supported their findings by quoting certain scriptures in the bible.. well they succeeded, c russell grew fame and popularity by his talks and books which displayed his dating calculation.. jesus has returned and new world order was about to commence.

Let not forget that 7 of their earliest books including the one and only book printed by them from 1917 till 1920 during the time Jesus was to have inspected them and choose them as his earthly organization had on their cover the symbol of a Sun with wings which was the sign or symbol of none other then the Egyptian god AmunRa!

Do Any Of You Dream About JW Friends You had ?
by smiddy3 inwhat prompted this topic was a dream i had last night where i was engaged in a conversation i had with an old friend where i was trying to prove where the jw`s were wrong from their own bible.. and this is not the first time i have had such dreams.. often times i have had dreams about people i have known in the religion .. remember i have been away from the religion for more than 26 years now and in a totally different part of the country .. i now wonder if any of them ever dream about my wife and i ?
but that`s something i`ll never know.. do any of you have any such experiences ?.
maybe i`m spending too much time on this site lol.

They Want More Money!
by Atlantis inthose wanting a copy of this file.
https://docdro.id/fllorzffile example:4. circuit overseer assistance arrangement: in harmony with the announcement to the congregation, please arrange for a resolution to be put to the congregation, authorising payment from congregation funds equivalent to £4.50/€5.00 per congregation publisher for the 2019 service year.
if the body of elders believes the suggested amount would impose a hardship on the congregation, the resolved amount can be adjusted accordingly.. .
