I don't understand why the guy is afraid of getting DF'd. Screw them! And move on with your life. It worked for me. I just walked. When the elders ask questions, I answer them with question. Or I tell them to stop wasting my time, get out of here. No answers from me. Nothing.

Disfellowhipped for not wearing facemask?
by Anna Marina inyup - person has done nothing wrong.
but they have called a judicial and from what i can tell refusing to wear a facemask is bothering them more than the person not turning up.. so is this new light?

1914 a doctrinal lie that created an entire religion the Jehovah's Witnesses
by Finkelstein inwhen you think about it the jws was foundationaly created upon a single core doctrine which was created close to a 100 years ago, that is the doctrinal year of 1914 .. the leader(s) of the ibsa in 1919 proclaimed that jehovah had selectively chosen them or him as it were by j. rutherford, they also self identified themselves as the anointed class the faithful slave.. from all of these expressive endeavors a new religion sprung up eventually calling themselves the jehovah's witnesses.
years and decades followed where more and more people were lured into the faith making themselves subservient devoted members as well, some also identifying themselves as the anointed class.
the jws proclaimed through their leaders (gb) that they were true loyal witnesses to jehovah's will and purpose, but were they really ?

Paint with a 2 inch brush!?! Never heard that one before, but would not surprise me if it came from the creative minds of Watchtower. A bunch of monkeys with typewriters.

I knew of someone who got DF'd for falling behind and late in paying taxes. Anything goes in Watchtower land.

Sin came into the world - not true?
by menrov inmatt 5:27 “you have heard that it was said, ‘do not commit adultery.’ 28 but i say to you that whoever looks at a woman to desire her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.. this means that even before someone commits an act that is considered a sin or wrong but does think about it, that person actually already committed that sin or trespassing.. now read this:.
rom.
5:12 so then, just as sin entered the world through one man and death through sin, and so death spread to all people because all sinned— 13 for before the law was given, sin was in the world, but there is no accounting for sin when there is no law.. this means that there was already sin in the world before adam and eve actually ate the fruit.

Sin = Human Behavior. I think it's all human Behavior. Bad and Good. Sin in the Bible is a load of crap!

I always loved Watchtower Math! Hard to explain and just does not work. Like everything else in Watchtower. Just pulled out of thin air with not much thought as to it making any sense.

Longhairgal- like my JW brother. I told him what is he doing for retirement? He is in his 40's . I don't think he has a plan and more and like gives his money to watchtower. What for? Watchtower loves to take but does not give anything of real value in return. Not a good investment.

Things that YHWH Never Told Me. Did You Know that YHWH Came from Egypt? Hmmmm!!
by fulltimestudent ini belong to a group (best description that i can think of) that specialises in sharing academic papers.
ok, sometimes that provides me with all kinds of interesting material pertinent to my research interests.
but, sometimes, (and since i have not read all of it, i'm assuming its fair dinkum, genuine research) something turns up (not among my usual research interests) that blows my simple brain.. anyway, after a brief examination, my conclusion is this: i think charlie russell would have gone gaga over this research.. the author has named his paper, .

I told my parents Watchtower was all screwed up! And that is the many things! Can't make that stick to the ceiling.
