  Were People Surprised When You Left The Witnesses?

  by minimus in

  mine was a gradual going away.

  but once it dawned on them, i think people were shocked that i left the religion i espoused from youth.. were people "in the truth" and "in the world" surprised by your departure?.

  Some vs Many

  by Londo111 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it is interesting how the watchtower uses these two words.

  for instance, the word some is often used to minimize, and many used to maximize.

  and yet, it is so unspecific that some might be a greater quantity than many, yet the mind doesnt process these words this way.. for instance, if it is a failed prediction or a changed teaching, they might say, some believed... when it fact some means most or all, because this was food at the proper time coming from gods channel through the watchtower.

  2014 DC: Fewer, but larger venues in the U.S.

  by doinmypart in

  in the u.s. there are fewer venues this year, but they will be held in larger facilities.

  as long as i can remember my family travelled no more than 2 hours to attend and in the last few years the dc was local (within a few minutes travel).

  this year my family is driving 6 hours to a major u.s. city.

  Instead of going to a convention this year and wasting money on GARBAGE, I'm taking my daughters to an indoor water park and snow tubing. I'm spending less money but having way more fun doing important things. Oh, and we're celebrating my daughter's birthday that weekend. Yup.

  Go stick it WTBTS!

  When i was studying with jws, I thought the Matrix fit the way they paint the world. i saw it again recently, and even tho I'm out, the 'truth' is still Neo and the gang, and the Matrix is the world. I don't see it fitting the other way around. I know, I know... I do believe I'm deprogrammed, tho .... lol

  We've travelled 4 hours to get to an assembly in the past. So happy I'm out! No more ridiculous trips to places I could care less tp visit to hear demeaning, demoralizing, and dreadful talks.
