  Mine was quite good. I attended all the meetings, kept my mouth shut except when being fed as part of the bend over and get buggered class. Did good talks, I was quite young, they all thought my mother did them. Went on service regularly (I was shit though, never hardly placed anything). I also went to them really sad get-togethers where no one has anything to say until someone brings the WT study into it or something (God as if we haven't had enough of that mind nulling .... already), this was torture but I could even look like I was enjoyed it. I could also sit up straight and pretend I was listening at the meetings, this is a fine art. Oh yeah and I never questioned anything, and I mean anything.

  I was zee perfect JW. Hale the WT.

  I HATE Jehovah's Witnesses.

  Reborn, considering your circumstances I think you've got a very healthy approach to JW's. You could do much worse like bashing your head against the kitchen sink but hate works much better.

  What's Your Emotional Age?
  less mature more mature

  I always think these tests describe me very well. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

  I'm not too predictable, I hope!

  i have been researching charles t russell.

  i'm just getting a bit disatisfied of hearsay one way or another.

  i have basically found out that the chances of him being a freemason are divided by a lot of confusion.

  I'm losing my hate through researching this organisation

  Care to explain how this works? Is your impression of them growing?

  Hell no, it gets worse but you see what source it is coming from when you research them. I use to judge them on what they claimed which is only fair and I still do if I’m going to put them under fire – they should ‘practice what they preach’ comes to mind. Now I realise there just a pile of crap and don’t even nearly live up to there own expectations. It’s kinda hard to hate something that is pathetic!

  Lives are being ruined but not by JW’s directly. If they are brainwashed, as most are (if you’re not brainwashed then your are plain evil!) you can’t blame that individual, can you. I was there once and I certainly was not to blame but this hell bent organisation was. I don’t hate JW’s. Yes, sometimes I get pissed off with the ones that seem so blind, but they need help. It can be a sad world sometimes. They destroyed my family and many more and put me through enormous mental strain all my life, now I’m free. JW’s need help not hate! They're victims of abuse. Although, sometimes it is very hard to see them that way. I think anyone with half a brain would question it in the end and break away. The WTS attract a certain sort of people. Then there are the rest that get dragged along in the mud.

  Is politeness out of style?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  many years ago people seemed more polite to woman, by tipping their hats or holding a door open to let them in.

  even in busses, men gave their places if a woman was standing.

  does a person look stupid if he is too polite today compared to years ago?.

  You could watch some Irish founded sports if weather permits, you'll laugh your freakin head off! Although, you'd have to be a hard case nutter to want to actually play them. There a tough bunch and are lovely genuine people.

  HAVE YOU GOT YOUR DRIP FEED ON?

  With the pressures of Satan’s system there is no time to think especially in this world.

  You cannot afford to put your life at risk by using Internet TV or reading old-fashioned memories of past-anointed ones. It’s vital that you keep up to date with new light.

  You’ve seen what happens to the brothers that have succumbed to such apostasy.

  Put your drip feed on (Do not fear! Your voluntary contribution will cover all legal costs).

  It only costs the society $1 an hour, (it’s all voluntary of course; if you want to give more you can).

  Instructions given in the next addition. Don’t worry if anything goes wrong. Remember, you will have a resurrection. If you are doing God’s will, you have nothing to fear. Don’t give in to apostasy in this evil world.

  I must say I felt the same way but I don't anymore. I'm losing my hate through researching this organisation. (sound confusing?)

  Once you start to see it in it's true light you start to judge it in it's true light. You see the reality of it and rise above it.

  Remember many people leave this organisation and always have done so and will continue to do so once they find out the truth from right at the top to the very bottem so to speak.

  The whitewashed Watchtower is nothing but a man made appliance. A well organised one, though.
