venus, this is one of my big pet piss me offs. I can remember my Grandparents telling me and my new wife that we needed to not look to get ahead in this old world. We had no help in getting us on track to make our lives. JWs are fools. I grew up in the cult and I questioned it from an early age. It was not till 1995 when they changed the meaning of generation tried to piss in our ear and tell us it was raining by saying they "clarified it" LIES. I have the 1984 Watchtower BV Why the Generation of 1914 will not pass away, bla bla bla. I have the 68 that says why are you looking forward to 1975. I told my mother who was still in the cult that in 1995 they were taking a chapter out of the While E. Coyote with a back against the wall and throwing up an Acme black hole to escape. The cult "JWs" did exactly what they condemned other religions of doing. They have no honor.

Smiddy, that is spot on. It is pure coercion. It does show now that you mention it that if they do this they know that they are full of crap and only want to keep the rank and file in lock step.

But wait, when I was in the cult the elders told the parents of DFed children that it was their fault. They would say that they did not teach properly or they would not have "turned aside" I can remember my buddys brother left the cult. His parents were unquestioning, they talk came out that it was the parents fault. I remember they would say they must have done something wrong beating themself. Now its not their fault. LOL Crazy cult. Any one have the Tower that was in back in the 70s or 80s?
Proverbs 22:6 “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”

"Demons" Living In My Brothers Gym Equipment
by pale.emperor inspoke to my younger brother dan yesterday (he da'd about 6 months ago).
he was telling me that he got a visit from our older brother the day before.
our older brother was raised a jw but never committed, lives a full-on "worldly" life - smokes, binge drinks, hangs out with non-jws, but he's been studying for about 6 years would you believe?.

I know of a lot of mind numb idiot JWs who would not go to Garage sales or antique stores because the items could be demon attached. LOL I bought Tarot cards and books and other things and have never seen a damn thing. Its mentally small minded people who are afraid of their own shadow.

A non-Witnes who accepts 607 BC?
by careful inan eyebrow raiser to be sure.
i can understand the clergyman being so baptist that he'd still use the name jehovah since it was popular in english and german churches for a long time during and after the reformation, but 607?.
see ¶ 6 under the heading "the historicity of the book of daniel".

No one who uses facts will date the destruction of the temple to 607.

I don't know if Trump is a good christian or not but we need a wall to protect our boarders. If you don't like it you can leave. Letting in illegals whole sale is for the stupid. All they do is suck off the welfare system and then bring in crime and drugs. Not the best and brightest. Playing the race card as "brown " people is only showing your lack of argument.

Tattoos
by new boy ini don't really have an opinion on the them one way or another.. when i was growing up the only place you saw them were on old ex military guys.
they had eagles with american flags or a heart with a knife through it.
some were so old and faded out you didn't know what they were supposed represent anymore.

Tattoos are a personal choice. As a JW it was a big nono. Now I have Three and looking to get a 4th. I do not judge anyone for getting or not getting one. I have seen ones I like and ones that make me cringe but its not my place to judge.

No one needs to create sympathy for the cult.
