See "You May Survive Armageddon Into God’s New Worl", chapter XXI, paragraphs 19-21. Also, the silver "Prince of Peace" book has a reference on how the flesh shall rotten on the bodies of those destroyed while they are still alive. And as to conclude that remark it is stated: Good riddance or something along that vein. Unfortonately I do not have the book at hand or a CD, but I remember it vividly, cause I conducted that book study at the time, and was somewhat horrified at the graphic description.

Help me out, please. A statement has been made elsewhere on the Internet .
by berylblue in...that.jws do not take delight in the death of billions of unrighteous ones at a. i was dumbfounded, but for the life of me i can't think of any solid examples of how the witnesses absolutely do gloat over the "baddies" dying at a. i no longer have any wt publications; does anyone know where such sick sentiments can be found?
the only example i could think of is the thunderous applaus at district assemblies when the bad guys bite the dust in one of their dramas, and that is not the evidence i am seeking.
while it certainly indicates their mindset, i'd rather have concrete, black and white examples of this disgusting attitude.. thanks,.

Theft of Identity from the Borg
by Yizuman ini had a thought for most of the ex-jws who spent most of their lives in the borg.
for those who left the borg, has anyone stopped and think, "who am i really supposed to be apart from the borg?".
have you ever wondered what your life would have been like if you had never been a jw?

I was also saddened to read your statement, Simon, especially since et echoes my own sentiments...
We’re right in the process of fading away, and it is a tough journey ahead.
Having been a lurker on this site for months have helped me tremendesly,
also realizing the struggles others are going through.
I have had many good times as a witness, had a good childhood,
nice parents who allowed me to make own choices
(the ones I regret now was mostly due to cong. indoctrination)
have met many nice friends in various countries, but
being honest to oneself outweighs these things.
Realizing that the WTBS is not as it was thought to be
(failed prophesy, dubious past, false quotations, the UN issue,
the pedophile issue, the shunning policy, gradually complex
and inconsistent blood doctrine etc,)
has made me setting out on a journey less predictable,
but still, more true.
The fruits are not entirely good anymore,
it does not help if two or three are palatable. -

A Question for the Males on the Board
by teenyuck inas i went about my wifely duties today, i had a thought and would like the imput from some former brothers and/or elders, ms, po, co's.. since leaving the borg, has the way you view your wife/companion/daughter/sister/mother changed?
let me elaborate.
while being brought up a dub, i was taught that women were in subjection.

many sisters I know, just let the subordinate talk go into one ear and out of the other.
Never liked it myself either. Equality is the thing. -

Quite a few of the things mentioned above seems to apply to American witnesses. By and large, European, at least Northern European ones are less militant and more relaxed.
(We do say good luck, or at least the equivalent of it, on noe one raises an eyebrow to that. It is common to say Good luck in service!).
The fuss about R-rated movies is not as big either (they are rated differently, and people are simply not that obsessed with it as their american counterparts.)

Do American witnesses dress that bad? (:-
In a newspaper article (liberal paper) describing an assembly in a European country, the journalist described the atmosphere as resembling the 50s due to the family-friendly atmosphere (please do not mess comments with pe... into this as well, it is getting sort of worn out). The way people dressed, groomed and bijouteri was described as modern.
Most witness youths dress very modern, slightly downplayed at assemblied, but def. modern in leisure time.
