some say or future, is going to be like the movie mad max.

other say it will be like star trek.

but if the comic books are correct we're about to see the first generation of super heros and i'm convince one is donald trump;).

This post gives a very good and funny account of the "paradise" avaiting the faithful according to WT:

Love the part on "I'll have to remember to keep my hands in my pockets when I date any sisters."

The Judge on Trial: Uncovering the Real J F Rutherford [Part 1]

enough rhetoric for now, here is my promised first part to my series.. for the benefit of lurkers, i'm using mainly wt publications as my research to show this information isn't 'apostate'.

part 1: association with russell and the bible students.

i want to ask an honest question.

Thank you promo6780, going back to the roots is useful.
Rutherford has hijacked what Russel has started, changing direction not only in doctrine but also in the way the 'flock' were being treated, bringing persecution upon them. And looking further into the later history of the WTBTS this process kept repeating itself, with the 'wise guys' bringing in new and newer light and pure disregard of the flock by separating families through the practise of shunning. Feel sorry for the people still inside

Should I stay or should I go?

hello everyone, i haven't posted anything on here for a while and today i just really felt like i needed to get my thoughts together.

(if you don't know me please read some of my previous posts).

so pretty much not much has changed in my life, i'm still living with my parents and going to all the meetings and service.

Being a JW you do not have to make too many decisions, they will make (prescribe) the decisions for you.
I do not think anyone can make this decision for you, you will have to make it four yourself. For me 'crying pretty much every day' is a very strong indicator of needing a change!
But are you sure you have considered all your options? There are usually always more than two.
Are you sure you can finish college if you stay? What if the next study article in the WT tells publishers 'not to pursue higher education inspired by Satan'? (My experience shows that by all means go for a higher education!) What I am trying to say is that do not be so sure you can go through with it, get your degree and job and then leave. Also do not underestimate the brainwashing capacity of the WTBS if you stay, I have former friends who are aware of the lies and know the WTBS doesn't really care about their people and still remain. It takes courage to leave, if you stay the brainwashing can get to you.
A little while back I had a really bad job, I knew if I didn't change it would affect not only my mood, but would start nudging away at my health. So I jumped into the unknown and this jump forced me to find new ways, explore things I haven't before. The first try didn't work out well, had to change again, but now I'm finally doing okay.
The best advice I can give you is to BE TRUE TO YOURSELF! Do not pretend to be what you aren't!
