  Don't Let Your JW Past Keep You Down!

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  i know many who were witnesses hate their past, their decisions, their wasted time.. but you know what??

  it's not so bad now.

  at least we are out, either mentally, physically or both.. and now, we know better!.

  Any active jws, without using the phrase "God must have..." Can you prove that Noah's ark actually happened

  by DuvanMuvan in

  i have a number of problems with the noah's ark story that i could never find the answer to in the bible and so i thought i could ask here:.

  1.how did noah get animals that are indigenous to areas he could not get to (e,g penguins, koalas, kangaroos, moose etc) .

  2.the flood supposedly happened around 4000 years ago but there is evidence of civilisation dating back a lot further.

  The story omits the fate of tiny animals like earthworms, bees, butterflies that are infinitely more important to any environment than mammals.

  JW parents are CRAZY

  by Demokan in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  hello again, for those who don't know me i'm a 15 year old boy.

  and recently my mom is displaying symptoms of demensia, she left the stove on today and she yells at us for watching commercials on t.v that are "demonic" because today there was a commercial on television for the new 300 movie and she started yelling at my sister to turn it off, and then i was listening to coldplay as a playlist while doing my school work and she started yelling at me to turn the demonic music off.

  she says "demonic" this "demonic" that.

  What is with the WT obsession with King David??

  by BU2B in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  it seems like at least once a month he is brought up as a good example in the study wt.

  it seems like he is given more praise than jesus.

  have you noticed this?

  David was one mean conniving bastard. He gave orders to murder some people as soon as he was dead. Didn't have the guts to do it himself and you call him righteous? Joab was his best friend, a man who defended David with his life so stabbing him in the back was just mean. It's never come up in any watchtower studies though.

  Update for end of august

  by ILoveTTATT in

  2. friends

  i have learnt to keep my mouth shut in public and my "real life".

  this is a huge advancement.

  i kind of screwed up by telling some of ttatt to someone about two weeks ago (the conversation just took a weird turn), but thankfully, he has even more "apostate" doubts than i do!!

  More power to you. But if you're not yet ready to be kicked out keep your mouth shut. Believe me, no matter how reasonable your argument may sound most witnesses will simply rat you out to the elders.

  Interesting experience while protesting at district conventions

  by theron ware in

  2. experiences

  for three weekends this summer, a friend and i protested outside district assemblies being held in the tucson convention center.

  our approach was very low key and completely non-confrontational: we just held our posters and smiled.

  this was our experience at the first two assemblies (for the third assembly, see the next paragraph).

  If I had to protest outside a convention my sign would read "ALLOW YOUNG PEOPLE GET AN EDUCATION " or "FALSE PROPHET -1914, 1919, 1925, 1975, 2000"

  a good friend of mine invited me to a party after her meeting on sunday.

  i told her i was not going any longer and she doesn't care.

  she also let us know that no other witnesses would be there.
