  Interesting point Blondie:

  FF was known for veering off the official material though.

  I was at a convention where Freddie read the same page twice in a scripted talk. He didn't even notice.

  i used to collect audio tape talks and came to actually idolize ppl like sinutko....when he spoke it sounded like it was coming from heaven...he gave a talk on 1975 where he said, " i dont think the society has ever told you u couldnt read literature critical of the society...." wonder if he ever left or phil hayworth from australia, amazing speaker who's gave a talk on the last days of jesus and made it really personal...anyone know if this guy ever left?

  How do I ensure I don't miss any real JW news?

  by yaddayadda in

  i've decided to end my addiction and only visit this site once a week because it is eating into too much of my time and i want to get out there and engage with the real world and 'real people' more.

  i'm sick of living a virtual existence.

  so what is the best way of ensuring i don't miss anything interesting in the jw-world on this site, and i mean such things as new directives from brooklyn, 'new light', policy changes, changes to the meetings, new releases, reports on assemblies & conventions, gb personnel changes, and such-like.

  he commented on another site:.

  oh, i must mention: when barbara and rud publish, they will shake the foundations of the watchtower society, and i will have to rewrite many parts of apocalypse delayed to fit with the newly revealed information.

  no one knows the dry rot that has existed in that organization as do they.

  She's been out of Bethel for years

  But remember she was in for years. Included in those years were periods when she had

  unlimited access to all their old records and dark secrets. Those old records could be the

  basis for a VERY interesting book.

  It's not the years she has been out, but all the years she was in and had access to all their old files and secrets

  which could be the basis for a VERY interesting book.

  September 1st 2007 QFR re FDS

  The virgins remind us of anointed Christians before 1914 who were eagerly waiting for the arrival of the Great Bridegroom, Jesus Christ.

  Another example of their continuing pattern of deceit!

  They claim once again that in 1914 they "were eagerly waiting for the arrival of the Great Bridegroom, Jesus Christ"

  The truth, of course is that until at least 1925 they believed and were teaching, that Jesus had arrived in 1874.

  How could they be expecting him in 1914 when they believed he had already come in 1874?

  Deceit and lies mixed with the usual self aggrandizment.

  Hi Greenmachine and welcom!

  This, I believe, is where you will find the Society's quotes re Jesus being the mediator exclusively for the 144,000.

  good in jehovah's witnesses

  by John Doe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i thought it might be nice to see some positive things mentioned about jw's.

  now, i know mentioning these things may be hard given the experiences here, but i've yet to find a group of people who don't have something positive about them.

  if there weren't something positive, no one would ever join.

  I had a reply in mind. Then I read Undercover's post. He said what I thought, only he said it better.

  There definately is good in Jehovah's Witnesses. It is the many kind, sincere, loving, if misguided and

  deceived people.

  I have nothing but contempt for those in HQ who have deceived these fine people. But I do and always

  will, love, those of my family and friends who are deceived as I once was.

  what is the real reason why kingdum halls don't have windows?

  to people on the outside looking in that is just too wierd and very cult like like they have something to hide.
