I remember in my JW youth how we would hear about these horror demonic stories but it was always a friend of a friend. No real proof. Also the mind can play tricks with a fertile imaginations. I am not saying they don't exist but until someone comes forward with scientific proof there is no evidence they exist.

Evolution and spirits
by Chris Tann inas of now iam making an unbiased examination of evolution.
however one thing keeps me hanging on to the belief of a supreme spirit being; the existence of spirits.
i have heard countless accounts of people who have experienced frightening encounters with evil forces.

Bible - War in heaven - Satan cast to earth - Why?
by berrygerry inreading the oct 1 1953 wt about gog of magog because of the posts about the changes of identity.. basic question:.
why would satan (whether gog or not) be cast to the earth?.
why not cast him to quadrant 4 of the galaxy?.

I certainly HOPE that since this was published in 1953 even modern Witnesses can see the absolute silliness of such idle speculation. In my opinion, there is no 'Satan' nor is there a 'Jehovah', a 'Heaven' or any of that made-up Bible stuff. Most intelligent people today see the value in living life IN THE PRESENT, not in obsessing over Bible stories written thousands of years ago. Whatever is true or not true will be shown in due time, and we can't change the outcome either way, so why worry about it??? In my opinion, when we die it is THE END of us....we are dead and gone, forever. No Paradise Earth. No Heaven. That's all, Folks!! So live your live NOW, and find happiness to the best of your ability. That's my advice.
Agree with you 100%. Don't worry about what has happened in the past or what is to happen in the future but live for the present.

I think I was about 18 years old and was too young to realize the significance in what I was doing.

Convention new book reveals "GROUP 2" of the 1914 generation...the horror.
by Witness 007 ingods kingdom rules!
the convention book released yesterday....say hi to group 2 of the 1914 generation!!
a graph shows group 1 being fred franz john barr etc...with a group 2 consisting of the current young faithful slaves we "met" the "group ones.

William, yes they have added a third group, the "sanderson class' These are the newly "anointed" that had no contact with the first group, because they were born or more precisely were received the 'heavenly calling' after the likes of Freddy Franz died. These new ones are not Overlappers
Then they will just keep pushing the date further and further into the future. It makes me sick that people 40 years ago pinned all their hopes and died on the premise of these now failed prophecies.

At the memorial service I attended the other day the last comment by the elder was this October it is 100 years of Jesus reign. Outsiders in the audience must have been rolling their eyes with this comment. Makes the dubs out as what they are a bunch of wacko's. I also seen they had a flat screen TV on the wall for I guess the GB broadcasts.

Where does the WT pull up this crap? They were so sure of those that saw 1914 would not pass away. Now this? If in 20 or 30 years and his has come to fullfillment, are they going to add a 3rd group?

Purging and letting go of the past
by Skinnedsheep inmy wife and i decided that today would be the day that we would let go of the past.
we collected all of our watchtower published books and brochures and threw them out.
it was honestly bitter sweet to toss our old pioneer books, marked up insight books, and notes from 25 years of conventions.

It is hard to just walk away from 4 decades of your life. Like a death, it is time to move on.

So the WT just extended their time line by a few more years. What happened to "this generation will by no means pass away" BS? Like the saying goes fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. I can't believe dubs that lived through the 1975 and 1990's fiasco still believe the lies.

Just watched a documentary on the Mormon church and I reckon they have got far more scandal and issues with BS doctrins than the witnesses ever did
by joe134cd inmust admit i didn't know a lot about the mormon church, so i decided to spend my saturday night exploring them on you tube.
after having viewed it i reckon the watchtower dosnt even come close to the scandal and total bs that surrounds the mormon church.
this is just 2 examples.
