I used to. She is an elderette, who tried to start a "discussion"' in the KH to see if I had a problem with her. I said, with a smile, "How could I"? She was worried she had offended me in some way because I was cool with her. I informed her that I don't believe in being stumbled or offended - those are choices people make and I don't choose to live my life that way. She had been hounding me for months. Once I said what I had to say, she left me alone. Many sisters have issues with her. It's almost comical.

True. I'm new and still in the mode of "How can I get others I care about thinking and onto this site?" Just thinking of the two months I lurked and was still nervous about "apostates" and their negativity, as projected by the GB. I was leery of clicking on certain threads, based on the subject line. I enjoy a lot of your topics.

@wasblind - so true. My ex is black and agnostic/atheist. Drives him crazy how many of his race seem deluded by religion.

Check jwfacts.Com - i think it is 37 percent. A European I worked with me pointed out that JW's have the highest number of African Americans of any denomination. He was searching for "the Truth" and wondered why so many of JW's are African American. Where I live it seems like the only group that is growing in JW world.

So glad I'm breaking the cycle in my JW family. I been promoting college for my daughter since middle school and she is in a fantastic college prep high school now. Although I have a great job now, I'm heading back to college in the fall. I've always disagreed with WT teachings on higher education and involvement in school sports. I only learned the TTATT a few months ago, but I have a whole new plan for my future that I'm really excited about. Carpe Diem!
Whatever nonsense The GB is responsible for causing, tomorrow is a new day. We each have the power to start over. Also, I think if your topic left out the word jerks and bs, it would be piqué more interest by lurkers. And it's tolerance. Just saying.

New light Watchtower magazine leaked from organization weeks ahead of general release
by cedars inhttp://jwsurvey.org/governing-body-2/new-light-watchtower-magazine-leaked-from-organization-weeks-ahead-of-general-release.
if doctrinal explanations are missing from the article, it is because they are also missing from the magazine.. i would like to give my thanks again to my source for supplying me with the magazine article weeks ahead of its scheduled release.
it showed remarkable courage, because risks were taken.

Cedars, I have posted on your site before, but now I'm getting a message that prevents me from commenting.
What a bold move by your informant! Kudos to them and to you for all your research. This is quite some "new light" to ponder and as someone recently awakened, I hope this article gets a few more JW's thinking. One can only hope. Thanks for all your hard work Cedars.
