  Been encouraging my husband to contact his DF'd brother

  by atacrossroads in

  my husband has a brother he has not spoken too in years not even when he became an adult.

  there is a big age gap between them and when his brother was df'd he was still a small child.

  his brother was 17 when he was df'd for sex and when he turned 18 he left home and never looked back.

  a while ago the user vinman started a forum thread called: "ray franz was an idiot".

  the reaction to it was quite negative but i have to admit that the title of that thread was intriguing to me.

  by nature i am an iconoclast.

  Is the Watchtower Destroying All Thinking Skills of New Witness, Compare them to when you were in the Organization!

  by RottenRiley in

  2. beliefs

  many jws don't know the basic doctrines we all use to debate the clergy with.. .

  jws don't know the bible, the know a few proof-texts but can't handle the bible like the witnesses of 1950s-1990s, what happened?.

  the caliber of the new elders is horrible when compared with the elders of 1950s-1990s, they don't know how to use their bible, they are turning towards orgnazational minor details while ignoring the bible and gospel message.. .

  Is governance by the "Governing" Body merely an ILLUSION?

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  jesus received his mission orders from jehovah.. the apostles received their mission orders from jesus.. .

  philip received his mission orders from an angel.. paul received his mission orders directly from a vision of christ.. .

  barnabas took paul to jerusalem where he met james (jesus brother and peter) for fiteen days.

  WTF just happened??? An elder I haven't seen in years stopped by to hand me a XXXXXXXX !!!

  2. experiences

  so yesterday afternoon, an elder who lives only 3 blocks away drives up to my house as i was about to enter my car.

  as he gets out of his car, i noticed he had a stack of photocopied paper in his hand and he seemed quite nervous.

  i was genuinely happy to see him nonetheless since he is pretty easygoing and very likeable.

  The Governing Body scenario is nearly identical to that in 1977 - no power

  by Dogpatch in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the watchtower perposely keeps its leaders "cordoned off" for a reason.

  the ones really in charge want to be invisible and have been in control since knorr's day, and still think like him.

  the gb want like hell to be visible and powerful.

  How IGNORANT can you be and still be a Jehovah's Witness in GOOD standing?

  by Terry in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as i have said many times, i did not really study jw teachings in depth until i went to prison.. i had a period from 1959 to 1967 when i---sort of----could explain things to a shallow depth.

  once i entered that profound place in my head (while in federal prison) when everything got serious.....i entered a secret room, so to speak, where.

  all the mysteries were hidden!.

  BUILD IT AND THEY WILL COME.....let's rebuild!

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  okay we've all beat our chest, lamented and throttled the dead horse of aawa.. time to move on!.

  i suggest those of us on j-w.n who care about creating something the right way take the trouble to get the framework going.. let's do the grunt work and get the nattering, debates, naming and organizing already pre-approved so that "others" who have the talent, ability, motivation and resources can move in and turn the key!.

  because it was not done before.. there is more wisdom on this discussion board in our vast numbers than there could possibly be in a virtual boardroom with 8 people brain-storming.. that isn't an insult--it is just a statistical fact!.

  Another Lie/Revisionist History in todays WT study!!

  by BU2B in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i caught yet another revisionist history deception in todays wt lesson.. .

  here is a quote from paragraph 4 of the 2/15/13 study edition.

  "decades before 1914, jehovah's worshippers declared to the nations that the end of "the appointed times of the nations" would come in that year and that the world would enter into an unequaled period of trouble.".
