to whom it may concern : after seeing the expose' on ctv`s program w5 called "no witnesses", i would like to find some way to obtain a few copies of the handouts which were used by the "vast apostate army".
can anyone send me a contact email to the "vast apostate army" and to zeb leatherman or parker bryan or tricia franginha ( spelling ?
t. just today i watched the "recruitment video" for the "vast apostate army"; the sound quality on my laptop was not the greatest but i say kudos to all those mostly younger people and a couple middle aged guys for taking this stand.. for a few years i have been in fairly regular contact by email with rev.
Some contact with activist ex-JWs who would contact a family member in Vancouver B.C. who is still frighteningly naive about JWs.
Intervening in people's private lives without their permission, so they can join another religious organization? I don't think so.
could be good for a laugh , .
if you have an hour to spare.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bj66ja-iua.
I do find his vehicle and the box in the back a little creepy. I guess I've been watching Investigation Discovery too much.
"Abuse of creation", as if building that "Ark" isn't. Just a 3D visual of the same bible nonsense.
Thanks for the video.
i've recently taken a particular interest in the jehovah's witness belief, and as a result, have decided to do a project on this belief as part of my college study.
i am a student teacher in ireland, so, i am undertaking this project from an educational perspective; i want to see how jehovah's witnesses are catered for in religious education in schools, and if there are any ways one could improve it.
i would appreciate if anyone could give their opinion on this topic.
I want to see how Jehovah's witnesses are catered for in religious education in schools, and if there are any ways one could improve it. I would appreciate if anyone could give their opinion on this topic. I am focussing particularly on how they are represented in the Irish Education system, but replies from any region would be so greatly appreciated
Interesting topic. I'm going to have to ask my Irish friends about it. Also, are you focusing on a particular area of education? Any specific sector? Is it private or public education? At what level (early childhood, middle school, college, etc)?
i don't know why i read this stuff it makes me so upset 😅 but although it's sad and frustrating it also is encouraging in a way:.

I think the letters are good for people who might be considering doing the same. Also good for many PIMO people not to feel isolated.
That's the frustrating part, knowing that you can talk til you're blue in the face, but it will likely only be met by a pair of glazed eyes.
Just because we don't see some kind of Eureka moment, doesn't mean that it has no effect. It's a cult, people are brainwashed, are biased and influenced, and convinced that anything outside is an attack. But they are still human beings. They read, think and question (even if they themselves don't even notice).
i just don’t remember when it was the last time the memorial falls on saturday.
anyway, do they meet for field service tomorrow(saturday)?
do they have their meetings on sunday?
Feels so good all of this being foreign to me.
so i’ve been dating my boyfriend for over a year.
he left the jehovah witness community and we have been living together for one year.
he hasn’t kept in contact with his family because he was disfellowshipped and hasn’t gone to any meetings.
should i be worried?
I would be, but looking at the bigger picture. Was his relationship with you the reason for him getting disfellowshipped?
Also, you should be able to just ask. I think the suggestion of asking if you could go too is good, but (IMO) that should be a second question, not the first. Trying to find out how he feels or what is the rationale behind him going to the memorial here is only guessing.
Talk to him about it. He may need to know that you are supportive of him.
i bought a book that was published by one brother in our area.
the title, if only, the brother didnt change his name he is, alex bogdanov, to support this brother i bought his book.
it is fiction about couples and i didnt think nothing of it, but after reading a few chapters one of the characters is an ex jw, i don’t think this character is disfellowshipped in the book, but she is definitely not active.
or it is apostasy?
No.
so does anyone else find it odd that jws base their whole faith on the bible?.
the bible was never in the plan for christianity.
the apostles spread the good news as they were instructed to by christ jesus .
So does anyone else find it odd that JWs base their whole faith on the bible?
The Wt does not base their religion in the Bible. If that was the case, they would never need the gazillions of publications that they release to "explain" it.
in therapy, i was told i should write a letter of grievances to each of my parents.
i really do not have any for my mother, except for things that directly relate to being raised as a jehovah's witness.
upon reflection, my childhood was hell because of the religion and its pernicious corruption of a normal childhood.
Thanks for sharing that. I think that's a courageous thing to do.
i noticed a recent post where it was suggested the store was taken over by hostile means!.
the person who posted it pretended to have knowledge of why the store changed names but clearly was operating with an agenda!
one filled with lies, misinformation and deceit!.
It's sad that there are people with lives so miserable that there time is spent trolling the web trying to see how they can make others miserable as well!
Sad, indeed. That's why I never take anything Internet seriously.
