What is this forum for?

by Kate14 in

i'm new.. my first post here asking for a little support was deleted by myself due to the frosty and rude replies i received.

.

i don't actually understand what this forum is for if it is filled with hostile people.. little confused.. why is everyone here?.

We are here because we were once captive to the concept that men in the Governing Body were in Jesus' hands and it was the true religion and we woke up, realized it as shit and now meet here to support one another.

We all have different views about life, religion etc but most on here now all recognize the JW's are not true.

If you have views now that you have left the JW's that are strong be prepared to defend them because we all believed in the JW's without any evidence now most on here require evidence to believe in anything...as it should be.

It's not hostile...it is common sense.

Do the GB leaders of the JWS make its members delusionaly insane ?

by Finkelstein in

this particular question or evaluation of the people who are participating jws has come up before in debate.

the more one deeply analyzes this the answer usually comes up in the affirmative yes.

when you consider the fact that jws members will abandon their own family, go as far as kill themselves under the direction of these men, it really confirms just how deep the mental and conscious indoctrination these men have gone.. .

Captives to a Concept...great book...explains it all....Don Cameron...smart man.

If they are willing to die, kill babies etc without taking blood the answer is obvious.

Naturalism is Dead - Why Are Believers Stuck in the Past?

by Perry in

sigmund freud, karl marx and charles darwin are considered the pillars of modern western thought.

they differed in many ways but had one thing in commonthey were reductionists who claimed that all higher realms of existence could be explained by lower natural causes.

they were the pillars of naturalism.. but their ideas were tested during the twentieth century and found wanting.

Question For People Being Put Onto A Ventilator - How Is It Powered?

by Simon in

jw
friends

imagine you or a loved one have to go onto a ventilator and are given the choice of how it should be powered.

what are people picking?.

coal or oil powered energy.

notsurewheretogo

Simon, what is the point of this thread when people are dying who are high risk?

I'm green as I can be but my sister with cancer requires ventilation and I don't give a fuck how that is powered at present.

What really are you getting at? Pointless and insensitive thread.

Not impressed with your posts recently...

Sister Not Sure If She Is 144 000 or Great Crowd

by Awake at last in

i haven’t posted here for years as i have now moved on and am satisfied with the choice i have made to leave watchtower.

however in light of the coronavirus and people in australia and other countries being asked to stay at home i became concerned for a witness sister who lives in melbourne alone who is 88 years old.

today i gave her a call as i don’t trust the local witnesses to care for her.

Oh I fully agree it is what I would do but its strange no? To use WT article to help a JW when we are not in?

Wait so those that have left are using a WT article to help someone still in?

There is something so right and wrong about all of this...

YouTube BANNED this video yesterday!

by The Fall Guy in

it lasts for 45 minutes, but the first 11 minutes are more than enough to see that something is not quite right regarding the media's information about covid 19. the video has english subtitles.

Legal Concerns About "Zoom" Meetings!

by Atlantis in

jw
friends

this whole "zoom" thing has got me wondering whether some of it is legal or not.

if a person has to dress up for a zoom meeting the way the watchtower dictates, doesn't this really go "beyond" cult?.

even the cults who committed mass suicide were able to dress the way they wanted for their meetings.

notsurewheretogo

JWs are not a cult as most reasonable people interpret the word. Ex-JWs who shout "cult" too much undermine valid criticisms that they could be making.
They are a conservative christian sect. They have some high-control practices. But they are not a cult.

You are wrong Simon...definition of a cult:

a religious group, often living together, whose beliefs are considered extreme or strange by many people

JW's will die rather take a blood transfusion, they believe in very strange and extreme things and are a closed community.

A hundred percent they are a cult. Add in the hierarchy and its nailed on.
