49Time for this Newbie to say - Hello everyone!
by SeventhSojourn inin just the several months i've been lurking here, i have benefited from many of the posters comments and viewpoints.
this is truly a special place for the unique community that has been created here.. after years of holding off my exit from the org (that may be another post) i recently became officially out (by letter of da), but it was a very difficult process as many of you know.
thankfully, i now have my wife (was also a witness) onboard and we support each other.

New Trend in Dramas?
by breakfast of champions inso it used to be that all dramas were ot.
period, that was it.. then they started incorporating a "modern day" application of the ot drama where actors in the present day reflected on the story.. then they started using some highly fictionalized nt characters in dramas (never jesus of course).
in the past few years we've been getting more "modern dramas", just about people in the present dealing with their "problems".

The last DC drama was so pathetic it was hard to watch, I literally felt uncomfortable in my chair trying to listen to that crap. And I was not even awake to TTATT at that stage.
How they could get any worse from that I don't know, but taking a stroll on the beach with the resurrected Job sounds like a start.

I was thinking about how the WTS predicts how Armageddon and the GT will unfold. It is really just fear mongering that encourages the cult mentality.
They want JWs to believe that survivng the impending disaster, is dependent on them belonging to the group.
It is not just Gods war on mankind they have to worry about, it is the authority's turning on JWs as a group. They teach them that they will have to be close to the congregation when this happens, which could be anytime, and this keeps many JWs scared and involved with the group.
It is totally bizarre when you are out of it and so obviously a cult, but the poor JWs are trapped in this cult thinking.

My Letter to Brooklyn about the Parousia that got me disfellowshipped
by cofty inthis is the letter i wrote back in '96 about the parousia.
following the '95 watchtower that disconnected the "generation" from 1914 i began to look carefully at end-time prophecy and soon discovered what i knew were basic errors in what i had been taught.. i was a loyal jw at the time and was still serving as an elder.
i used only watchtower publications in my research.

Mkvlevari, posting on this forum makes you a hypocrite. Being a WT apologist on this site is not going to get anywhere. It will just confirm in everyone's minds that JW's are delusional, no matter how sincere they may be.
Cofty, your expiernce with your in-laws is incredible. It confirms that it is best to just keep the truth to yourself when awakened, no matter what the friendship or family relation you have with someone. They will turn you in if you display even the slightest bit of dissent to the WT dogma.

Why are they all depicted as white people?
This is exactly what I thought when I first saw it. So the OT Bible characters look Caucasian? They could get a job on the Governing Body!
Now all I see is the baby-alien-turban-face-shoulder-creature.

There is no reason to believe that Rutherford was even sober at the time of dreaming up this doctrine.
Unless evidence is presented otherwise, I will assume he was heavily under the influence of alcohol. Not fit to drive, let alone think up religious dogmas about heavenly callings and a pet lion paradise earth for others.

Anthony speaks like his arrogance is a virtue and his smugness is endearing. What a despicable fool.
