  will this wake any jw's up to how they have more in common with other sects than they believe?.

  I'm looking forward to when JW's start giving away hot dogs at their rolling carts. "Junk food at the proper time"!

  did you have any favourite books by the society when you were in ?not that this book was my fav.

  yet it was the first book i read learning about jw`s.

  " from paradise lost to paradise regained " i know , it was designed for the young , however my mentor thought that since i had no understaning of the bible it was what i needed.

  I liked the "Babylon" book. It really illustrated how crazy Fred Franz really was.

  Surviving 2014

  by Defianttruth in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  sometimes i get stuck in the "ruts of my past".

  i worry about the family i have lost and the pain i live with because of this cult.

  this is my plan for 2014. i'm going to do things out of my comfort level.

  Corny as it may sound, it's up to us as individuals to create our own lives and futures. That is/will be difficult for many who now have ttatt because we were trained to be lazy minded and to be led by others. Life is not bad outside of the WTBTS, just different. If you only had vanilla ice cream all your life, does that mean that chocolate is bad? Try some chocolate or even strawberry. It's good.

  Found out about my 'marking'.

  2. friends

  yesterday we met up with an old ex witness friend after four years.

  it was great to drop all the barriers that have stopped us all meeting recently.

  apparently, it turns out that i was marked as an apostate some time ago.

  No one in the borg really knows what 'marking' is all about. Hell, I was an elder for 20 years and didn't know much about it. Just another stupid catagory invented by the WTBTS to make themselves "special".

  Do you feel guilty?

  by Justmenthedogs in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so while i was out hiking with the dogs today i got to thinking about this forum and was wondering how many of you still feel guilty from time to time for leaving?

  i do, i miss my family at times but then i think about the life that i have created and i have a good one, i have good friends and i am happy, happier then i ever was as a jw.

  i was just wondering if others feel the same way sometimes..

  No guilt just sadness for staying so long after 1975 and then 1995.

  WT ain't going out of business.

  by joe134cd in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i've heard this said in other posts, so now i'm going to combine it in one post.. the $28 million awarded to conti is only drop in the bucket for what they are worth.. there would have to be 100 s of successful sex abuse law suites before they would feel it.

  quite frankly i don't reckon there would be enough with the right circumstances to have a successful case against wt.

  having a dozen or so cases isn't going to break the bank.

  Been chained to the Bible too long now. I'm singing the "Unchained Melody" by the Righteous Brothers now.

  The "Christian Greek Scriptures"

  by Doug Mason in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  from 1950 to 2013, the watchtower and bible tract society has been releasing its new world translation of the scriptures.. my study considers the christian greek scriptures (new testament).. http://www.jwstudies.com/why_does_wts_accept_christendoms_scriptures.pdf.

  i have also provided the pictures that i created for the study.. http://www.jwstudies.com/pix_for_study_wts_accepts_scriptures.pdf.

  please accept the fact that i have no idea whether colours clash or if they match.

  Ya gotta love the way all religions 'cherry pick' the "ancient documents" that support their particular dogma and discredit all others as unreliable.

  Elders/Ex-Elders: Question about Blood

  by JWdaughter in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  after many years of objecting to the wt teachings on many levels, blood being one of them, i recently started to wonder (ok, i am slow!

  ) : what exactly does the wt think that the early non jewish christians were abstaining from in the blood abstention bit.

  while i understand the context of the request that the apostle sent to the brothers, i do not understand what jws think they were abstaining from.. meat slaughtered improperly?.

  Any blood left in meat bought at a regular supermarket or butcher shop is only the blood "fractions" that are now permitted by the WTBTS; don't ya know!

  Just saying!
