Just curious if he's still lurking and making idle threats. You can't find all of us who are on jwtalk!
Hopefully what you've read on this site has made you start to think and see the truth about the organisation though that "it's not the truth!"

how outdated is the compulsion of people before the law courts of the land to take an oath on the bible to /swear on the bible to tell the truth and nothing but the truth so help me god.or its equivalent affirmation.?.
and even if you do claim to believe in god but feel giving information to those who don`t deserve it then withholding such information is justified as theocratic warfare deliberately misleading those seeking such information.. if you don`t believe in a god ,you can lie all you like .. and in the case of geoffrey jackson at the a.r.c.
into institutions of child sexual abuse ,he had no problem misleading ,another word for lying to the a.r.c.
I was sitting thinking about this the other night. If someone doesn't believe in the bible and god then do they swear on the bible because it doesn't mean anything to them?
one of the biggest gulfs that life has had to cross was the transition from sea to dry land.. fish have conical shaped heads, reptiles have flat heads.
fish have no necks; their heads are attached to their shoulders by a series of bony plates.
land-dwelling animals all have necks; their heads can move independently of their shoulders.
Thank you cofty

Absolutely fascinating thread. I have so much more research to do as I'm way out of date with fossil records
so this morning i'm walking to my office and there's the jws on their carts outside as usual.
and old sister, a brother in his 20s and an elder i instantly recognized from my jw days.
one of my best friends of about 20 years.. i genuinely just wanted to say hi as i havent seen him in 3 years.

I don't get their reasoning that the ones who choose to leave are the ones who break up the family.
Love, family and friendship should not be conditional upon having the same religious views. Why can't jws see this??
was on the bus today and got into a discussion somehow with the driver and ok be ood his work colleagues about whether there's life in other planets, evolution and creation.
the driver believes there must be other life out there, i agree with him that life can't be unique to this planet out of the billions that exist.
his colleague who i think might be a jw by his attitude and reasoning skills thinks we're the only planet with life on it and it was made perfect and exact purposely for humans.
Until starting and reading this thread and also reading the Atheists Book of bible Stories I didn't even notice how ridiculous a lot of what is In the bible is. You have to be superstitious and believe in magic to believe a lot of what it says.
Onagers post about the stripey sheep and sticks made me laugh.
I've started doing a lot more research on science now and I'm learning the basics of evolution before I read more advanced research because I've forgotten quite a lot over the years with being a jw.
I was wondering the same thing this morning. She's been quiet!
i know that the jdubs think that they are the center of the universe and in actuality, no one except ex-jdubs gives a rats ass about these religious crazies.
my question is i read that as a percentage of pedophiles per members, that the percentage is larger in the watchtower company than in the catholic church.
i would think that would catch someones attention in the media and make a good story.. what really pisses me off is the watchtower cult is gloating about all of the negative press the catholics are receiving concerning pedophiles not even knowing that the jdubs have thousands of sexual abuse cases that have been covered over.
Sourgrapes do you think if you got in touch with the media and informed them with facts that they'd write a story?
I didn't believe Any media about jws when I was pimi, now I'm not so naive.
fellows.
finally find a place to share experience for jwers.
i am also a ex-jwer and left the ´truth´ on jan. 2018. i live and work in midt jylland in denmark.
Welcome iamwhatiam - I also left this year and I'm so happy now as well.
You'll discover so many lies the society told us. Life and most people outside the religion are not like what the society told us. Although a lot of jws are nice they are conditional friends because they'll drop anyone who leaves the religion. I know much nicer, more genuine friends now and we all have different beliefs but we are great friends.
