"We have truly seen Jehovah's hand" - the shocking side of Watchtower propaganda

by cedars in

as a special "thank you" gift to the watch tower society's team of lawyers for getting jwsurvey shut down yesterday, i have written a new article focussing on the experience of the nigeria plane crash from pages 29 and 30 of the 2013 yearbook.

the experience purports to be about the relief committee set up to assist a witness family whose home was destroyed by a deadly plane crash that claimed over 150 lives rather than the freak survival of the family because they obediently attended their meeting.. still, the reaction of witnesses on facebook unmistakably demonstrates that the real aim of the watchtower propaganda machine was mostly achieved in this article.

despite the fact that two witnesses were recently killed in a bus crash on their way to an assembly, apparently those who obey the bible's command to not forsake gathering together will experience "jehovah's hand" of protection.. here is the link.... http://jwsurvey.org/cedars-blog/we-have-truly-seen-jehovahs-hand-the-shocking-side-of-watchtower-propaganda.

If a plane crashed into a kingdom hall..would that be an act of satan trying to bring down Jehovers rightous followers?

@ a bible student

She made a huge list on how members of her hall need to meet her VERY high standards, if they dont, they can bugger off, Before many could read it she edited it to say what you see now. I wish I copied and pasted it to remind myself why I DONT GO TO THE HALL ANYMORE. Because of people like her

Good Reasons To Hate Every Weak And Ex-Jehovah Witness.

by AuntConnie in

1. my husband's time is finite, it's wasted on spouses arguing over money, sex or family mattters with stupid home visits.. .

i hate people's constant open hand for money, it's the weak individuals asking others to pull their weight.

my family worked extra hours instead of begging the strong members for district assembly money, cat food for seven cats or tiny little rag-a-muffins weiner dogs.. .

you play the victim sooo nicely...would you like your oscar now or later?

i think with every year their are more and more newbies that identify with this site , would you like to say " hi ", if you have joined in the last 12 months ?.

does anybody have a graph of the numbers of newbies who have joined in say the last 5 years ?.

i think that would be interesting.

Hola!

Ive been here for about 2 months now. I first started to question things in july after moving in with my MIL. The things she would say and do really made me start to wonder...(she would start moaning and gaging when there was anything about gays on TV). Then I started noticing how others in the field service would come and visit her and do the same thing. These things really really bothered me, I am very liberal and I believe in equal rights, I then remembered something my faded aunt told me. She said if you have the truth, it will stand up to any research you do. She then said one thing," Did you know the elders have a secret book nobody is suppose to know about?" With those words in my head I googled watchtower society lies; jwfacts came up and my world was tipped upside down. I was so lost, I needed to know the truth, and since JW's obviously didnt have the truth I needed to find out the REAL truth. I am a medical marijuana patient, so I got super super high and just delved into my own head. I analyzed myself, my beliefs, and who I am. I thought about all religions and beliefs, did serious research into all of them to find which one a relate with. I actually debunked many religions. So then I needed to figure out who I am. I spent my whole life trying to be someone I am not. Its now time for me to be MYSELF. i stopped going out in field service and I only go to meeting when my MIL forces me to, but I go to a movie instead. I figured out my life has been a waste so i enrolled in a tech college. It was my first day today and I loved it. My husband and I are working on moving out of MIL and out of county. We will then be able to fade completely. But for now this is the only place I am able to express myself freely. People who arent familiar with the JW's cant understand what I went through. The JW's that I did confide in stabbed me in the back. My husband does not want to hear anything neg about the WTS. He says I look at it in a negetive way. He wont go to meetings or go out in service either, so Im not gonna bitch too much. So this is my release and I want to say thank you to every member, because without this forum Im not sure where I would be mentally. So thank you guys very much

Did you ever have any real weirdos ? in your congregation who were Elders ?

by smiddy in

.....some of the things he did and got away with , to me now is unbeleivable , and maybe to you.. in all fairness he was well versed in the bible and very clever how he used it to put a critic to rest at the doors and in one instance when i was witnessing with him , he demoralised a pastor of his church .and i was impressed at that time.. but he had some strange ways , he was always looking for someone to break gods laws so to speak .he did set himself up as the policeman for enforcing gods law on the congregations .

( this is my description ) he was known to stand outside bros/sis.

homes to see if he could find something incriminating against them .

First off- my in-laws are the weirdos

2nd:

A couple in the hall that lives down the street from us will stare out their windows at us. My hubby and I go for walks/run, when we get to their house I can see them, husband wife and daughter peering out the same window at us. On the way there and the way back. These same people come up to me after I get my hair colored and cut and tell me "Im not sure if I like your hair" Ok, since strawberry blonde is soo outrageous. They then proceed to admonish me for convinving a hotel manager to give me a room at a hotel that was on the WT list but they didnt have anymore left. We got a suite for the same price as the other dubs. They were just jealous. Same couple- I go out in service with them and the wife is telling me about how they are having some people over for a bible game night, but she doesnt want to invite hardly anyone in the hall because of the labels she has put on them (users, spiritually week, no children) So after she is done talking trash about everyone she realized it was rude to talk about a get together in front of me, so she invites us. We get there and there is a shitload of magic mushroom statues and knick knacks. These people will also go by our house and notice we werent home on a sunday and werent at meeting, so the next time we saw them they would ask us where we were because our car was gone. They wanted to know what was so important that we couldnt miss meetings. So self rightous they feel they can call others out, even though there is no proof. we must be sinners because they see us out running on a meeting day, but we dont go to the meeting.
