im thinking only a brain-dead one!
maybe the whipper snapper shows off to his/her jw friends, thinking they're so strong and superior because it doesnt affect their faith in god.
(only a jw this small minded would even bother and would fail to see even some of the truth in what x-jws say.
People in all walks of life fall for propaganda that suits their prejudices.
This is so true! I recentley found out a lot about C.T Russell. My mum's a hard core JW and I seriously thought she would be interested in what I found out, but she couldn't care less.
I told her and she went quiet and had that 'oh my God, my faith is being questioned' look, I questioned her intelligently and she didn't have anything to say but didn't even care enough to think.

i found out an interesting point today on the internet in my research of c.t.russell that took me down a completely new road regarding the entire wts situation..
...breifly
In Russell’s last will and testament he stated his wishes regarding what happen when those that were to carry on his work did so.
Were his wishes respected?
They were ignored by the new members that later formed Jehovah’s Witnesses and those who agreed with Russell’s philosophy called bible students remained so and the JW’s were the one’s who splintered off under the direction of ‘Judge Rutherford’.
To me, all this man made religious bickering is bullshit and goes to prove how lost it all is in reality.
I was just wondering, can we blame Russell for the WTS as it stands today?
Bible Students today say that Russell would not be a JW or even accepted as one today.
I still can’t agree with Russell’s way of doing things at all. He claim to represent God and be under his direction for spreading his word but he repeatedly jumped to conclusions and made endless false predictions that he passed off as God’s will and word. He had some crazy ideas too and mislead his followers.
I’ve come to the conclusion though that I cannot research Russell using any WT literature that went beyond his own writing of it, so I’ll have to get some of his old books and magazines before I can properly research him and the role he played in this organisation.

so what's the worst job you've ever had?.
book-servant at the kingdom hall would be pretty bad, but ministerial lawn servant is probably worse.. outside the society, probably my worst job was waitering.
i have a very short short-term memory, although this is more than made up for by my ltm, which means i made a really sh*te waiter, let me tell you.
Can U guess?
Window cleaning!
Guarenteed to turn you into an old man at 16 shivering your nads off in the freezing cold, and for what?
So you can spend more time shivering your nads off in the freezing cold with people you don't even like.
Can't help but laugh when I think of my life as a brain dead JW ...good job innit!
was just wondering if you listen to music while you post here.
that inspires me to say just about anything.
music is so good.. you have already made 40 post(s) in the last 1 day(s) out of your limit of 40..
Deep Dish does it for me at the moment (good house music).

I know for a fact that if all JW’s saw the truth about their religious organisation for themselves they wouldn’t all be JW’s.
my stupid jw cousin is trying to prosylitize my silent lamb bros girlfriend.
i need un docs.
Try putting in a search at www.freeminds.org , it shouldn't be too long until you find some. You will probably find links to the UN website itself with the info on there.
BTW, can anyone you give any WT references describing how the WTS felt towards the past involvment of other organisations accociated with NGO specifically. I would be grateful until I get a WT CD of my own.
hmmm....i am trying to post here, but don't see the thread come up after i send it.
am i doing something wrong?.

Welcome to the board Ronnie!

hey people!
nosferatu here, haven't posted in a while.
just figured i'd let you all know what's been up lately.. first of all, i got back in touch with my old buddy from my jw days.
Hi Nosferatu, haven't been around here for long myself - look forward to hearing of your experiences.
You probably won't have heard about Dansk's campaign! Check it out if you haven't already.
If you have written a lot about your experiences as a JW, maybe you could condense it down a bit and post your story on his thread.
