@jonathan drake yes, thanks for your experience. I had no family to lose since none of them are in the Lie, so I don't really have to worry about that :) im definitely going to remain quite now. I'm done.

@data-dog yep, I see that now. It's the most moronic thing I've ever experienced.

@robert, thanks :) I won't be spending time with them these jws are in the states, im in Europe.

@zeb, yep, I'm thinking of taking up writing or maybe even drawing as another hobby. We'll see :)

WT addresses the "rapture" teaching.

by wifibandit in

look at paragraph 15 of the 2015 july 15th study edition pg 18-19.. http://imgur.com/3wparys.

.

basically they admit to teaching the rapture (for the anointed remnant), just don't call it that!.

I'm glad someone brought this up. When I was learning the lie, I never got this point. , I'm looking forward to hearing everyone's thoughts on the matter.

Some Questions About Jesus

by Coded Logic in

why didn't jesus ever write anything?

why are there no letters to jesus?

no painting of jesus from that time?

Garrett

There is a logical explanation for all of this....

imperfect men! ( you'll get the joke if you read my last post)

no but seriously, the logical explanation is that they are all the same person with multiple personality disorder.

mystery solved

oh...my...god.... i can't.. well, i am officially done trying to explain things to them.

they talk in circles, and their excuse for everything is "imperfect men".

imperfect men!.

Garrett

oh...my...God.... I can't.

well, I am officially done trying to explain things to them. They talk in circles, and their excuse for EVERYTHING is "imperfect men".

1975? Imperfect men!

rape and molestation? Imperfect men!

no rules to protect children? Imperfect men!

1914 ? Imperfect men!

so what you're saying is.... This organization is no different from the Catholic Church. Dang you sound moronic.

then you try to reason with them and it gets worst! Them: we need to obey those that take the lead among us and trust them. They are appointed by jehovah

me: ok, would you trust someone who failed to protect you from harm?

them: well, if they didn't protect me from harm, no..

me: (referring to deposition in Candace Conti case) but isn't that exactly what the elder failed to do for candace?

Them: yeah but they are imperfect men.

me: but you just said God appointed them so don't they have his Holy Spirit and guidance in how to handle the matter to protect an innocent child?... Fair enough, though... What about the branch letter saying to report the child abuse to them instead of directly to the authorities?

them: Jehovah's organization has had to learn. They used to celebrate Christmas, the light gets brighter.

There is NO reasoning with them. I don't know why I even tried. Then they told other people and I had to IM 4 people at once! My brain is going to explode. So I just told them I'm an apostate and that they probably shouldn't speak to a mentally disturbed agent of satan.

this will be the last you hear about this. Sorry for bothering you over A WASTE OF FUCKING TIME.

love you all, I'm off to get wasted. Happy Easter.

Guys, I tried. (Follow up to my last post)

unfortunately, before I could write anything she had sent a second message letting me know that the org isn't perfect, but that jehovah sees everything and that she's sad that I want to leave jehovah.

well, I let it rip, boys and gals. I let it rip. I can't take stupidity from people I thought were capable of using their brain. How dare she say the org isn't perfect and that jehovah sees? How would he allow innocent children to be raped and then have his org tell people not to tell authorities and not to take action? ITS THE MOST MORONIC THING IVE EVER HEARD!!! I'm so pissed off right now.

unfortunately my emotions got the better of me and I couldn't follow your advice. The reason this is such a touchy subject for me is that because for half my life, I was severely abused mentally and physically by my father. To the point where I had to sleep in the woods at night because he threatened to kill me in my sleep. So child abuse of any kind infuriates me, and people that see it, have the power to stop it and take no action deserve to die. They deserve to be tortured and die.

im sorry for the rant guys, I really am. I'll see you guys later. have a wonderful Easter.

(sorry for any typos, i'm on my ipad) so, remember how in my last post i mentioned that i had told some of my dear friends why i decided to leave?

well, one of those friends was a girl... not just any girl, but rather, a girl that i've loved since the moment i've met her.

she used to say that she considered me her best friend and we were really close she just never really returned my feelings for her due to different circumstances i presume.. but i always felt a connection.. anyways, after telling her that i decided to leave because of multiple reasons but that the tolerance of child sex abuse was the final straw, she responded asking where i got my information and that she wanted to talk about it with me.. this feels like an opportunity for me to tell her about my findings, what do you think?

hello everyone!

(Sorry for any typos, I'm on my iPad) so, remember how in my last post I mentioned that I had told some of my dear friends why I decided to leave? Well, one of those friends was a girl...

She used to say that she considered me her best friend and we were really close she just never really returned my feelings for her due to different circumstances I presume..

Anyways, after telling her that I decided to leave because of multiple reasons but that the tolerance of child sex abuse was the final straw, she responded asking where I got my information and that she wanted to talk about it with me.

this feels like an opportunity for me to tell her about my findings, what do you think? Remember, she's an open minded individual :)

What would you do in my situations?
