7Can you all please teach me your new light when you learn it?
by angelamarieglass ina letter written to jw family and friends: .
i'd like to know why you no longer believe in an "invisible presence" (1874/1914), and who it is that is depicted as appearing in your summer convention video riding in from the clouds on a white horse (like christ) and with a bow and arrow like the first horsemen of the apocalypse (who rides alone, then followed by the other three horsemen) and the army from heaven clothed in white linen who are supposed to ride with the faithful and true (who carries a sword, and is not to be confused with the imposter) is, please.. video w/ lyrics and scripture as commentary: https://www.facebook.com/angelamarieglass/videos/10107996987100648/ the first horseman of apocalypse is clearly the person, as he's carrying a bow and arrow.
however, why is he appearing as-if christ (with christ's "faithful, loyal, and chosen" accompanying him) with a bow and arrow to rescue you?.

“Omit needless words,” advises William Strunk in the original edition of The Elements of Style, a bible for writers. He then says:
Vigorous writing is concise. A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts. This requires not that the writer make all his sentences short, or that he avoid all detail and treat his subjects only in outline, but that every word tell.

Teach me your "new light" ...
Sure:
- The real process of science - UC Berkeley
After coming to understand the the WTBTS/JW religion is a corrupt and false cult, I now only believe in things for which their is strong evidence.
And when I say evidence, I do NOT mean some yahoo saying "Evidently, ..." and then failing to provide any.
I mean real, substantial, tangible, measurable and repeatably so evidence.

I Think Their Is A Move Coming From Higher Ups To Get These Insane Idiot Out Of The Drivers Seat Of Jehovah's Chariot
by Brokeback Watchtower inlook at all the lawsuits, scandals, unsuccessful cover up, contribution shrinkage, stopped building project, and much more.
these guys are steering jehovah's chariot off a cliff if someone don't put the breaks on these delusional clowns.. so what do you think is there something a foot there at chemical dump clean up site warwick?
i bet you a coup is in the offing, because you know not everyone close to the governing body believes their bull shit but are playing along until the time is right to keep the wt ship from sinking like the titanic..

SBF: Who could look at the mess the GB have made and NOT think that it could be done better?
Possibly, but remember that this religion regularly innoculates the leaders against a coup with Bible accounts like the one about Korah and the 249 that rebelled against Moses, or even Uzzah steadying the ark.
The point of such stories could not be more clear: sit down, shut up, listen, obey and be blessed.

Disfellowshiped- reinstated- damaged
by Damaged indon’t know how i ended up here but no one who understands will listen, or any one who will listen doesn’t understand.
i grew up in the “truth”, i was baptised at 17 as it was encouraged by the elders.
i really didn’t understand what i was getting into.

Welcome, damaged.
We will listen AND we understand. Many here have been similarly hurt by our experiences in this religion.
We were damaged, but not irreparably. You can heal, but to do so you must leave this religion.
Cofty and ToesUp both had some good advice. Heed it.

Why Do People Oppose Jehovah's Witnesses?
by BlackSpirit injesus christ, the son of the most high god, jehovah has this to say: "if the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you.
if you were part of the world, the world would be fond of what is its own.
now because you are no part of the world, but i have chosen you out of the world, for this reason the world hates you.

How 'bout this: JWs are not liked because they are a highly destructive cult.

I'm well aware that many organizations make in-house and public promotional videos to draw attention to what they are doing. They do this for a variety of reasons: to create enthusiasm and boost morale, to create publicity and increase awareness both within and outside of the organization. Of course, at the root of it all is the bottom line: to increase revenue.
That being said, what the WTBTS is doing with these videos is not really different from what many other organizations do with one notable exception: the WTBTS creates a great number of videos drawing attention to the fact that they are doing things that are extraordinarily ordinary and mundane. Some of their projects are notable to be sure, but a great many of these videos are insipid beyond belief. The banality of celebrating the commonplace, everyday and routine activities that are featured in so many of these videos is surprising for its lack of any spark, interest or value at all.
They are clearly uninspired, and I mean this in every possible sense of the word.
