And the fact that your mother is so excited about the new things going on in the religion, and the new website and so forth just shows how uneducated the Witnesses are because they were not allowed to use a computer for years and years. They were not allowed to listen to politics or anything that might teach them something. Really, what right does the GB have to tell us what to do? Our forefathers fought for our freedoms, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, or lack thereof. Yet, they sure have the Witnesses under the control and they like it.

I tried to make an elder feel guilty for shunning his 2 children.
by Jeannette ini ran into an elder the other day at walmart.
he's a fairly good man and has a wife that is very sickly.
so sickly in fact i don't know how she's holding on.

I don't know why they were disfellowshiped but for goodness sakes, they are children. Not all children accept their parents' religion, they are free individuals and are supposed to think for themselves.
gerryberry, I wrote those numbers down and am going to put them in my wallet so that I can pull them out whenever I bump into him again.
Atlantis-I wll do what I can. Hopefully this terrible, family-distroying cult will soon change this man-made precedent. You think?

Just use your intuition and your own brains. Don't rely on "Jehovah" because I don't think he is the true god, but that's me. And really, mental telepathy? Use your own life experiences and think before you talk, and you'll do just fine.

Ha Ha. You guys are hilarious. Of course dogs go to heaven. So do cats, and chickens, and pigs. Especially pigs. Oh, I'm sorry -Jesus and Jehovah don't eat pork.

I ran into an elder the other day at WalMart. He's a fairly good man and has a wife that is very sickly. So sickly in fact I don't know how she's holding on. They had an infant to die years and years ago, and both of their other children are disfellowshipped. So I asked him how his wife was doing and he went on and on about how she was bleeding here and there, (she's been doing this for years). I said "you know, it must be very psychologically hard on her to deal with the death of a child". He said "oh yes, oh yes", then I said "well it's just as hard to deal with the loss of her other children. We're going into hard times, and the family is very important. She needs to see those children". Woops, he forgot to pick up some produce he had overlooked. See ya.
When I see him again, I'm going to continue on with the nit-picking. I've been conjuring up in my mind what I can say to make him feel really guilty for mistreating those children for a "religion" or "a god". There should be no reason on the face of this earth to shun your children. If they are murderers or something, turn them in. Don't shun them. I'm inactive and they know why. (Their fault).

This religion is about to be toast.
by kneehighmiah inthe governing body is preparing to take a major hit.
this recent watchtower shows it.
not the new understandings, but the article on marriage.

We Are A "Vast Army"
by mrquik ini know many have suffered to varying degrees at the hands of this cult.
one of the first casualties is our self- esteem.
our awakening takes us all on different paths.

Thank you, mrquik, i needed that. I feel so guilty for taking Christmas away from my 2 little boys, now men. How I made them feel so bad in school watching everyone else! All their school life. Well, it is my own fault, I should have been more insightful. But anyway, mrquik, are you on Blondie's christmas card list? I'd like to send you one.
