  A man dressed as a woman, he had a black eye and several brusies all over his face, opened the door and before i could say a word, grabs me and kisses me. He took the tract out my hand and proceeded to walk down the street.

  Did You Enjoy Your "Vacations " As a JW?

  by minimus in

  we went on "vacation " every year because we were jehovah's witnesses!

  we were so fortunate to stay in a cheap hotel more often than not so that we could enjoy a witness convention.. we never enjoyed a real vacation though until many years later and the funny thing is---so many jws thought it was so materialistic because we went on more than one "vacation " per year..

  I feel really bad for making the convention the family vacation. This year we skipped the convention and went to visit family instead. We went to the amusement park and had a wonderful time.

  My husband is non JW and every summer we had huge arguments over the convention. He didnt want to go and l would try to make it sound like great fun...so exhausting.

  Is The Watchtower Corporation Facing A Meltdown Of Confidence Among Its Members?

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  looking at all the narcissistic bull shit the watchtower corporation has been spewing out for the world to see about suffering of its members to as nothing worth being very concerned about and as jehovah magnificent be vindicated is much more important.

  have they really gone off their rocker enough for a very sizable portion of membership to see their insanity and jump ship?.

  i think definitely they are losing all respect from their internet savy members as their madness becomes obvious.

  I've heard at several conventions, assemblies and meetings that we are only guaranteed survival and protection as a group. So basically anything can happen to you and you can't expect Jehovah to step in and save you. Maybe he will, maybe he won't. Most likely not. However as group JW's will be saved. Even if your faithful to the end, MAYBE you will be saved. If you die...maybe you'll get a resurrection. Huh? What kind of salvation is that?

  Last Week's Watchtower had something that made people start questioning things?

  by silentbuddha in

  1. watchtower

  i just got a call from a friend who said that something in last weeks watchtower caused a number of people in various congregations to start questioning things, and several long time elders left.

  i am totally out of the loop but i do read things here and i heard of no such thing.. something to the effect that jw's and governing boobies are not inspired or something along those lines?.

  I never understood why God gave Job more children, why didnt he resurrect the ones that were killed. If Job never knew why this was happening, who told moses? or whoever wrote the story, how did they know what happened in heaven?

  Just A Thought Regarding The Bunker Video

  by pale.emperor in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  as ridiculous as the bunker video was, a few things popped into my consciousness as i was riding the train today.

  firstly, why did they go to all the expense and effort to not only create a bunker, but to furnish it like a living room complete with coffee table, armchair, shelves etc?

  i mean, a bunker should be a bunker... boxes of tinned food, tools, medical supplies, emergency gear etc.

  I remember watching this video at the convention and I was really annoyed by the ending, when the storm troopers opened the door...then that was the end....OK....now what?

  They were hiding. Why?. They went through all the trouble of hiding and having secret knocks, being on the look out and being extra careful, yet! they were still found. They never said why they needed to hide. It didnt make sense to me. So exactly when does God protect you?

  I felt like the video was over the top and I felt embarrassed wondering what anyone visiting the convention would think of the wacko video.

  Is the End right around the corner or what???

  by Lynnie in

  interesting observations i've noticed when visiting my uber elder cousin and his wife.

  he just inherited a lovely home on the water on puget sound from his non jw dad who passed away earlier this year.

  so they have spent many $$$ and months remodeling this house to their standards which are quite expensive tastes.
