There is no way I assume this dude is innocent of fraud. Yes shunning and the JWs suck, but there are JWs that get dfd for doing stupid shit.

I remember her well as a Wallkill Bethelite. I would flirt with her very overtly. She was fun.

And BTW, I lay the blame of the actions of JWs and Westboro Baptists and other such Christian fundamentalist groups square at the feet of liberal Christians.

I'm too old for imaginary friends.
Gotta love me some people that are JWs then "wake-up" to discover the real Jesus. Beam me up Scotty.

Contradictory geneology of Jesus
by rebel8 inso i'm reading another carl sagan book and he seems to invariably find a way to slam j-dubs in each one.
(i can't say i blame him.).
anyway, in this one he discusses the fact that the gospels give contradictory geneologies of jesus--differing lines back to david from joseph, and a different number of generations.

If you look at some of those generations as two groups that overlap, it all makes perfect sense.

What's with all this "don't go to the KH" horseshit? If going to a KH can restore an xJWs faith in the GB, good riddance. There is one less idiot in the xJW community.
But seriously, it's called working the system. It's called working a fade. It's called best case scenario exit, which some people need. Some of us have true believing children, marriage mates and feeble parents that we are needing to give their best chance at exiting the cult as well.
I still go out in service (minimally yes), do sound control, make most of the meetings. And I've been and atheist for almost 3 years.
It's your life KateWild, not the life of a myopic JWN member, do what you need to do.

Solving the Problem of a Generation that never ends ...
by fulltimestudent inluke 21 is a difficult text to interpret.
and jesus' failed prediction that the end would occur in the lifetime of those who heard him speak, makes the whole thing border on farce.. recall what he said:.
30 when they sprout leaves, you can see for yourselves and know that summer is near.. 31 even so, when you see these things happening, you know that the kingdom of god is near.. 32 truly i tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.. 33 heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.. .

SAHS - I believe that the end did occur in the lifetime of those who heard him speak
This is only possible if "Jesus recorded words" of the prophecy are cherry picked. Of course, you've already heard this a thousand times I'm sure.

the new exjw stars of youtube... discuss
by friendaroonie insince the creation of a few youtube channels i spend enormous amounts of time watching them.
they have basically replaced my activity on jwn and watching kelly and michael in the morning.
there are quite a few issues and implications that result from this trend.

If a channel that is xJW is Christian, they might as well be Scientologists or Mormons. Spouting a different form of superstition is of no use to me. Main stream Christianiy is what oils the gears of fundamentalism, like JWs.

Sorry posters JWs leaders will not "change" 1914 or 144,000 "literal to figurative "doctrine
by booker-t ini actually called bethel a few weeks ago and i was shocked that i actually got thru to the writing dept.
i was abit nervous but i asked the jw writer if there was going to be a change in doctrine.
i thought he was going to immediately hang up on me thinking "apostate caller" but he was actually nice and we talked for a while.

The GB could announce 1914 is no longer signifcant and 144k means nothing and
.... most JWs wouldn't even flinch.
We would laugh, high five each other and have a grand old time. But, JWs think like JWs, meaning they won't think shit about it. I know no member of my family would even care.
These people are already ok with two overlapping generations is one generation. The specifics of their doctrines mean nothing to them.
Some will even be estatic about "the new light" and sign up to pioneer, decide to get baptized, apply to Bethel, etc. etc.
