30 years after leaving utterly unrecognisable
by Number 6 inthis is the first time i have posted on here in many years..... i seldom visit now although this forum was instrumental to me in gaining my sanity in the early 2000's and recovering from the watchtower religion.. by chance tonight i was on youtube and caught a jw.org video which out of curiosity prompted me to look at the official website and amongst other things i looked up the music section.. why that i hear you ask?
music is my passion and nothing reminds me more or evokes more memories than the kingdom songs i grew up listening to.. i am 49 years old and my mother was baptised in 1974. i grew up in the era of pink songbooks and green bibles.
of the theology of fred franz and types and anti-types.

Long prayers
by fulano indid you have one or two brother with way too long prayers in your congregation?
when i was a child we had a brother who would go on and on after the watchtower study for at least five minutes.
many elderly sisters just sat down and a lot were complaining after the long desired amen..

Sorry, but the underwear is Mormon. As for the chairs, they seem to have a knack for finding ones you either slide out of or make your legs go numb and cramp. Or both

The reference to not watching news was on a broadcast. If you dont know about an event you cannot form an opinion or discuss it with householders. No matter that it makes you look like an ignoramus to most everyone

Interesting. They do not want to get back what they lost in Africa but to get ahead here. Remember the slavers were black Africans working for arabs with names like Obama. The slaves were taken from poorer tribes in war/raids

Jehovah, Jehovah, Jehovah
by Sour Grapes inmy pimi wife listens to a lot of the meetings on the phone with the speaker on.
when i am watching tv i hear the meetings in the background.
i just cringe with how a witless can't give a comment without having said jehovah at least two times.

The other thing in prayers is the "most magnificent. Glorious. Supreme, loving, eminent; every adjective you can think of ; lofty throne. On and on in introduction
If ever I "qualify" I am going to see if I can get it in 20 times

What is the biggest doctrinal mistake made by the Watchtower /JWorg. ?
by Finkelstein inpersonally i think it is 1914 and the following " this generation " doctrine.. this particular doctrine went right against jesus's own words of " no one knows of the time not even he " .
he also admonished his true followers to not set a time upon god's own sacred time .. the leaders of the wts even back to the late 1800's set a time calculated on their own theology 1874 being the first time set and proclaimed by c t russell, also proclaiming 1914 would likely be the year of the final day of judgment armageddon.
all throughout the 20th century the wts held to this doctrine but was eventually revised of course when it was realized this generation had passed away who saw the events of 1914. .

Biggest related to 1914 has to be the overlapping. Even ones who can explain it (word for word) dont get that they start on 3rd base with 607

You still ain't getting any. Unhappily it comes down to who you vote against. They are all owned by the handlers behind the scene

A big wedding doesn't make a good marriage. What does is someone who will love your weaknesses and fears andhelp you through. A lot of inlaws take in and love the ones who marry in as much as their own. Until you meet the right person you can't understand this, when you do it just falls to place

Do You For The Most Part Trust The News Media?
by minimus inthe media is very powerful.
many news people just want to get a scoop even if their breaking story isn’t checked out for accuracy.
some journalists are precise and double check whatever they are reporting.

Often the news turns into an editorial. And not a good one; where you have to think and confirm your own ideas or come up with realistic rebuttals. And there is the omission of all the story. On any subject I have personal knowledge of the newscasters are just plain wrong so I assume the things I know less about is the same
