It's truly amazing how much property they have owned over the years, truly a real estate empire.

Feeling Sad After Uncovering TTATT
by pale.emperor inmy initial pangs of unease and doubt led me to research some things.
well, a lot of things really.
i've never felt comfortable using the bible to try to calculate dates (1914).

It's not only sad depressing and also shocking, you'll probably develop PTSD too. It sucks but hopefully your young enough to get on with your life learn from it and enjoy yourself in the future living your life to the fullest. Hang in there they say it gets easier over time.

For JW Lurkers
by mrquik inwelcome those jw's who lurk here with the purpose of affirming their religion.
this website was designed for all to express their opinions & beliefs openly.
many exjw's have pursued all different avenues of belief & you may take issue with those that stray too far from your personal ones.

A watcher, saying no other religion has the true nature of these spiritual things , is very judge mental. Jesus said not to judge or exalt yourselves, so I guess you don't have a true spiritual understanding of jehovah and Jesus after all and because of this your personal relationship with jehovah and Jesus is not what you think. In fact Jesus maybe really up set with you right now.

My thoughts on the shunning part at the convention
by stuckinamovement inthe wts has gone off the rails and is "unrepentantly" hateful.
they are blatantly requiring mothers and fathers to disown/hate their own children that they have loved and cared for since birth simply because they don't comply with the orgs demands.
how is this love?

I thought the part was stating to only shun those doing serious sinning or wrong doing ? If I'm correct how can this be construed to mean to shun family or friends that just don't go. By the way they shun you anyway when they know you don't go to the meetings any more so not sure how this changes anything.

How to shake up Jdubs...
by Rather Be the Hammer ini didn't attend the meeting last night, but my in husband came home and was quite shocked because there was a letter announcing that there will be no wt-library cd-rom any more, and..... no more calendar.. he said there was a lot of talking and noise when that was announced.. i didn't expect the calender to go, by the way.
and my husband sounded really concerned, talking about how society is cutting down.
i love it when he says with a tone of surprise in his voice: 'you were right, now they want us to do everyting digital, and throw out the printed stuff.

According to thier last report the jws are loosing 250k per year that's a lot of people in let's say a decade. How long can they loose this many and not be hurt big time financially , so it makes sense that thier cutting back and selling off .

"Where Is Jehovah In All of This?" My Wife, July of '93
by TMS inthe title above is a question asked by my wife seemingly hundreds of times in 1993, the year our only child was disfellowshipped.
the entire story exceeds the reasonable limits of this forum and i have to suppress the urge to write it.
instead, i will give little snippets, what a certain elder said at this or that point, how jehovah's organization treated us, how we handled our gradual awakening to, yes, "the truth about the truth.

Nothing worse then a bunch of idiots judging you and that's what I found during my jc. The cobe even admitted he hadn't used his brain since he got baptized back in 1996 . Truly just stupid people didn't even know some of thier own doctrines and no clear thinking skills . One said he was on a website about blood and everything he was reading made sense but when he found out the website owner was a exjw he was out. Didn't matter that the information was correct. Thier indoctrinated into being fools , it's to bad really!

RC Was Worse Than I thought...
by JW_Rogue ini was visiting with my family and it seems the rc was worse than i thought.
now they all seem to think that "we are so close to the end" and that the "brothers are really preparing us for the gt".
some even saying that soon our message will change to a judgement message for mankind and talking about how we need to improve "everything we do".

Weren't we judging people years ago when we went out in service. They gave up on that idea a couple of years ago but now it sounds like it's back. Rinse and repeat. It's really sad how many lives they have and are destroying!!!!
