i just want to know how friends feel about the word "apostate" when being used to refer to them?, do you feel relegated?..
The only people that I know today that use the word is the JW's. And they aren't using it as a compliment..it does offend my senses as i know they are taking it out of it's true meaning as I see it...
To me It simply means to leave a religion. They act like you are turning your back on God and his people which it isn't the case. It is the religion/beliefs they teach.
Snoozy
i mean, come on.. it's a damn religion that you would die for.. you call yourself a "minister".. and i bet you believe that you could debate like, a harvard-educated theologian under the table or something.... .
so, jwn-ers, how many "jehova witness", "jehova witneses", or "jehovas' witness"es are you friends with on fb?.
any other unique spellings i missed?.
My first thought is to keep anyone from finding their site (Other JW's). but If it is spelled like that it could be one from another country?
Snoozy..
my children's paternal grandmother (g) and great grandmother's (gg) racist attitudes.
i'm sorry but i really need to vent about this.... g was saying how she'd taken my son to the beach yesterday.
she parked away from the seafront so had to walk through the fairground to get to the beach.
The way things are going we will eventually have one race on the planet..
As a "Older generation " I still have to fight my racist feelings..Remember, we were totally brainwashed as children. I was taught that the Jews were a dirty people and should be avoided at all costs..and don't even stay on the same side of the street as the gypsy people..
I wish I could stick around to see how it all turns out.

i just read this story about a dude that "washes" himself in his urine!
evidently, there is something called urine therapy.
now he's all shocked because he got fired.
Human waste is a waste type usually used to refer to byproducts of digestion, such as feces and urine. Human waste is most often transported as sewage in waste water throughsewerage systems. Alternatively it is disposed of in nappies (diapers) in municipal solid waste.
Human waste is a biowaste and can be a serious health hazard, as it is a good vector for both viral and bacterial diseases. A major accomplishment of human civilization has been the reduction of disease transmission via human waste through the practice of hygiene and sanitation, including the development of sewage systems and plumbing.
Human waste can be reduced or reused through use of waterless urinals and composting toilets and greywater. The most common method of waste treatment in rural areas where municipal sewage systems are unavailable is the use of septic tank systems. In remote rural places without sewage or septic systems, small populations allow for the continued use ofhoney buckets and sewage lagoons (see anaerobic lagoon) without the threat of disease presented by places with denser populations. Honey buckets are used by rural villages inAlaska where, due to permafrost, conventional waste treatment systems cannot be utilised.

There is a reason it is called waste...

just curious, do they give you any kind of documentation?
is it all just by word?
surely they would have to give you something?.
What a bunch of legal wimps...so afraid to put anything in writing..
I guess I would too if all I taught was SB..

Couldn't you demand a letter saying you won't accept it as valid (your dismissal) until you get something in writing.Continue going to the hall and saying hi to everyone. Go door to door and talk bad about the JW religion instead of trying to get them to join the religion....what are they going to do , arrest you? After all we do have freedom of speech..that's what they always say..
"Good Morning friend, I have good news for you. The WTBTS will be falling shortly as no one will believe their BS for much longer as word is getting out of all their works against God.. Here let me share a scripture or two with you that proves how very wrong the religion is..." (and so on)
Will that work?..

I think I would demand a letter or go on like nothing happened now. I would also make them put the consequences of talking to someone that is disfellowshipped in writing or I woul dtalk to the disfellowshipped one..(I would anyway)..
They have gotten away with the Me boss you slave long enough!!!
How can they believe they have the right to tell someone what to do like that?
Doesn't it just grab your balls now that you know better?..
Don't you feel violated?
Snoozy..

Also someone had posted a thread about the magazine earlier on May 3rd..Copies of the magazine article can be seen here in the previous thread:

They can't remove all the evidence..
