  NVR2L8 that's true, i remember reading the same types of "look how bad everyone in 'Christendom' is..." Quite the diversionary tactic... Finklestein, that is so true, the WT thinks tgat if THEY say it 1st, no one can " use it on them"

  Is Religion Dying Out?

  "Why the Exodus?
  

  People are becoming disillusioned with organized religion for a variety of reasons. These include religiously motivated or religiously sanctioned violence and terror, sex scandals involving religious leaders, and more subtle factors, which may be taking a bigger toll. "

  Such audacity!

  One day assemblies

  by Sour Grapes in

  this may have been discussed before.

  the costs for using the assembly hall for a one day last saturday was $12,000 with another assembly for the other half of the circuit on sunday, which will ring up another $12,000.

  if the assembly was for two days the friends might roll their eyes if it were announced the costs for the two days was $24,000.

  Yep ThinkerBelle (love your name)

  Anyway, this got my ire up years ago, when like Apocalypse, and SloppyJoe & many past others pointed out: They "vote" about "giving the extra to the WTBS" before they even get the $$, and say they are in debt!" GGGGGGGGGGGrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

  How much do these AssHalls cost, anyway??? We worked (donated our whole family's time) for a year and a half FREE, as did so many others....

  $24,000 a weekend x's 52 weekends = $1,248,000

  x's 5 years = $6,240,000

  Such blatant rip off artists!

  Freedom in admitting the truth...

  by _Morpheus in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for those that lurk or havnt decided to post yet.... living a lie is difficult.

  nobody would likely disagree with that... many of us lived or are living the wt lie for the sake of friends or family.

  it can eat at us and put us in situations where we frame half truths, try to find tactful way to avoid telling people what we really think.. there is great freedom in being able to admit truths.

  True, making WT face the truth will definitely get you 'thrown to the lions.'

  The famous quote, "You will know the truth, and the truth shall set you free" should be followed with a question, "What does it set you free from?" and then, "Do you really, really believe knowing the "truth" is worth it? Why?"

  then..... "Would anything prevent you from seeking "the truth"?"

  How do you know when truth is truth?

  How about suggesting they say, "No thanks, I am an apostate, would you like to hear the reason I left JW's?" It would be interesting to hear their responses... (PS, give them something to say, perhaps about pedophiles & the ARC?)
