  Good for you for admitting it and better that you're addressing it!

  i'm sure someone somewhere has asked this question, but along with the contempt written on morris face i've also noticed the club ring.

  im sure you've all noticed it.

  does anyone have any insider information on the gold rings they where?

  BW: Hey this also serves a good purpose of making the GB aware that they got some serious security leaks from people at Bethel

  Good point!

  It must drive them crazy that no matter what they do, they cannot plug the leaks at Bethel.

  cappytan: @Oubliette: I had a ride with in-laws.

  Well done!

  That's the spirit!

  I almost wish I could have been there to hear it ... nah!

  You gotta' find a way out of this cult! It's either that or cirrhosis of the liver.

  iWitnesses?

  by cappytan in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  campaign of hate said this on another thread:.

  they are quite clearly trying to copy the business model of apple.

  it reminds me of the 2013 agm when they had an apple style technology section, focusing on the new jw apps.

  "iWitnesses"

  Hey, it's only one letter of the alphabet away. In fact, IEHOVA is the old latin form of JEHOVAH!

  You heard it here first!

  Unconditional Love

  by God_Delusion in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  hi guys & gals,.

  have you really ever thought about the term "unconditional love"?.

  it's one of those terms that we as witnesses get to hear banded about quite a bit, but have you ever truly sat (or stood) and thought about what it implies?.

  JWs make a lot of noise about having unconditional love. Their acceptance is all conditional. It's contingent upon going along with their delusional beliefs (or at least pretending to) without ever criticizing the organization and its leaders, never questioning doctrines and practices and never pointing out flaws.

  If it's conditional, it ain't love!

  Could a religion caught up in abuse and fraud possibly be "true"?

  by Jonathan Drake in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i recently had a discussion with a witness in which we were talking about the catholic church.

  i led them out with talk about the fraud and child abuse scandals and everyone was agreeing and making comments about how terrible it is and how obviously wrong they are.

  after about 30 minutes of solid rapport building in this manner, even incorporating scriptures regarding some doctrinal errors in their doctrine (catholic), i said this:.

  OTWO, could you please provide the citation for the Watchtower that has this quote:
  

  "A religion that teaches lies cannot be true."

  I can only make out that it's December 1st, but can't tell which year.

  Cedars really missed an opportunity here. I mean, he had an actual GB member on the phone! He should at least have asked him if his refrigerator was running or if he had Prince Albert in a can?

  Dumb.

  All this will do is make life miserable for a few low-level drones at Bethel that let this call through.
