Foolednomore, I got McDonalds lunch right before field service, with my then fiancée. Some JW, they wouldn’t tell me who, reported that he was smoking. It was a straw! Such assholes these witnesses are. We put up with so much crap from jealous morons.

Exes: Would You Rat On A Current JW?
by NotFormer init's an interesting thought.
if you are an ex jw, presumably dfed, and you see a current jw in good standing engaging in behaviour that would concern their elders, would you pass on that information to interested parties?
do accusations from exes and other outsiders carry any weight?

“This is my son the beloved. Listen to HIM,”
by Fisherman inthe apostles and early christians suffered and died resulting from listening to jesus and jesus said this would happen.. but is listening to jesus the same as direction from the gb based on interpretation of the bible, for example, in medical treatment or other directions?
a christian could expect death or injury resulting from listening to jesus but should this validate possible erroneous understanding of the bible?
we know that peter was executed because of his christianity and so was jesus by the way.

Acts 15:29 - "keep abstaining from blood"
by aqwsed12345 infor a christian, only the moral commandments of the old testament are binding (as they cannot change), but the various liturgical, social, and other so-called casuistic laws no longer apply to them.
this includes dietary habits, such as the prohibition of pork or fat, as well as the prohibition of blood.. take a look at the following verses: mt 15:11, mk 7:15-19, acts 11:7-9, 1 tim 4:3-5.. the jehovah's witnesses say that, yes, but in the acts of the apostles (15) the consumption of blood, idol meat, and strangled animals is also prohibited, meaning the new testament still forbids it.
for catholics, the council of florence settled this issue, stating that this apostolic regulation was only a temporary measure to facilitate agreement between jews and gentiles in the early church.

Easy prompt, I donated plasma (for money) when I retired, they have a very strict policy about who they will pay for plasma. They reject drug addicts. I asked about this, because I didn’t understand why they were so strict about who they accept. They said that previously, there were no standards, but the US GOVERNMENT passed laws that curtailed this practice. I ended up getting another full time job, but, after 8 months, I am finally stopping work, as of August 31st. I will probably sell it again, pays our grocery bill.

Disfellowshipped, Seeking Reinstatement
by NotFormer indo disfellowshipped ones who want to be reinstated still have to sit up the back of the kingdom hall, away from everyone else, not allowed to speak to anyone?.

There’s nothing in the literature, it’s up to the DF’d one, unless the local BOE makes their own rules, which does happen.

Why do JW apostates tend to be activists against the religion?
by Vanderhoven7 inj. arden writes.
first of all an apostate is literally just someone who left.
most jws are technically apostates from the religions they were raised in.

Why do we speak out? Maybe it’s because our childhoods were taken from us, others, be cause many years of their lives were wasted in service to a cult.

by AnnOMaly inthe contrived and unrealistic conversation that one of jehovahs witnesses imagined having with a neighbor in the october 2014 watchtower will not be reproduced here.
instead let us imagine another conversation another witness named andre (ahem, sorry) cameron has at the home of another man who is also named jon.keep searching for a suckercameron: jon, ive really enjoyed the regular discussions weve been having about the bible.
* the last time we spoke, you raised a question about gods kingdom.

Riley, I discovered what an orgy was, at the Kingdom Hall. A “sister” came into the “truth” from door to door, and accepting a study. After she was baptized, they put her on the stage to discuss what she had been involved in, before studying. She engaged in orgies, among other sexual topics. I really had my eyes opened, I was pretty grossed out, picturing, in my 10 yer old mind. What happens in an orgy. Oh,she was disfellowshipped about 3 months later, never saw her again. 🤷♀️
