The saying that really struck me was: "I'd rather have questions that can't be answered, than answers that can't be questioned!"
Kinda sums up my wt history and fade!

these are my coments on some answers in the interview:.
why did you start doubting the church?three things troubled me.
the church was involved in politics.
Every time my still-in wife relates these stories to me, I counter with, "Honey, every religion has their own version of this very same story. JW's are not unique with these type of experiences."
She quickly changes the subject but I know that she knows that it's true.

i can't think of any chronology that has not been changed.
even their "absolute" dates are suspect.
They always get the memorial date and the first new moon correct! so do millions of jews! lol

anyone read exodus 32 lately???
i consider the bible a work of fiction, and i consider the ot to be barbaric and the underlying theme for everything wrong with religion from jw to radical islam.
it's filled with man made analog thinking that people attribute to an all intelligent creature.
Biblical description--blood thirsty, vengeful, barbaric, jealous, childish, sexually depraved, tribal god=jehober!

so they dont have enough of the average jw's time, now they want your relaxation time too.
get into the houses and get on their tv, make them see the roku remote so they must be compelled to put on the 'channel' its the channel for god!
lol.
when the gb meet on Wednesday they close the doors and an awe inspiring, magnificent light fills the room imbuing all of them simultaneously with holy spirit. Then they tell jokes and swap stories about what prophetic dreams they had that will, of course, result in the much anticipated nu-lite that all jw's will readily swallow. After that, of course, a democratic vote is taken (majority rules) to see which theocratic nu-lite item is really from jehober and which is from the delusional dream of some old cogger with a boner for 'tight pants'.

i know we must have alot ofpeople on here huge football fans like myself.
born and raised in boston, i am a huge sports fan, and of course patriots fan.
so anyone here go to another meeting, makeup some bs excuse, illness, flat out miss the meeting or anything else to watch game if your meeting happened to go from the 9am to the 3pm in january ?.
I often sacrifice seeing my favorite elders make a fool out of themselves at the meetings(parroting wt bs from the stage) so I can stay home and watch football! The football gods are like jehober. Sometimes they bless you and other times they curse you and you don't even know why.
So, because of my sacrifice, often I'm blessed with a really good game to watch. Of course, in the big picture, a football game doesn't really matter but it's so much more meaningful than a pubic talk followed by the wt indoctrination!

i know that a parable must never be made to walk on all four legs, that many of its elements are there to act as "fillers".. nevertheless, i wonder if i have missed something with the watchtower's "explanation" of the parable of the ten virgins.
they state that the parable relates to their anointed class.
but the wts also says that the 144,000 are the "bride".. so are the "anointed" part of the wedding party that is waiting outside as well as being the "bride" waiting inside?.
When I was young (6 decades ago), my mom use to tell me that when I grow up I could be anything that I wanted to be.
I suppose that's what jehober has told the 144,000 too.

why do you think it is that wts limit accessibility to watchtowers and awakes to only issues since year 2000 on jworg?
a whiff of something slightly orwellian?
not a case of re-writing history but nixing it altogether?
19-year-old girl arrested for killing 77-year-old woman in nagoya.

nagoya .
Makes me wonder why jehober didn't protect her! After all she was preaching/teaching about His Kingdom right? So much for depending on jehober for help in time of need!

im kinda mad, its hard to shake off the look of that little girls face...standing in someones basement, scared.. why the hiding?
if these people werent in this basement, would they be killed?
