Why would god go to soooo much trouble to preserve his word the bible from the dastardly satanic culprits who tried to destroy it but not take the same care to preserve his name and it's proper pronunciation?
just asking!

November broadcast makes thier strategy clear.
by Crazyguy inthier talk at this summers district conventions about shunning faders was a bit unclear and many said it was pointing out that only jws were to shun wrongdoers not specifically faders.
this new broadcast makes it now obvious that those who leave the meetings have left jehovah so therefore they are to be shunned as a form of discipline.
there can be no mistake that they do not want any of thier cult members associating with faders or those that have left the cult.

I was a 'prominent' elder in our congregation for many years. I was a 'lifer' so to speak till I finally admitted ttatt to myself. I've been faded for about 7 years now but attend on some Sundays and the RC's just to keep up with the latest, greatest, most recent, divinely revealed (but possibly uninspired) new lite.
I get a very warm reception at the kh and all my old fellow elders just sort of keep their distance.
I do my reverse witnessing to those that I know will listen to facts and reason!

Relatives of those who have lost their lives putting faith of life or death in a religion that is neither Inspired nor Infallible.
by smiddy inwith the admission of the governing body that they are neither inspired nor infallible , i am curious to know how many of you people from all around the world know of somebody ,a relative or friend , who lost their life because of following the dictates of a religion that now says they are neither inspired nor infallible.,that they now admit they make mistakes.. how many people have needlesly died having followed the jehovahs witness religions policys regarding not getting your child vaccinated against diseases ,which was the case years ago, not having organ transplants as that was considered cannilbalismm years ago ,and since the mid 1940`s the ban on jehovahs witnesses having blood transfusions.. yet somehow today you can have fractions of blood donated by non jw`s who are designated as people to be destroyed at armageddon because they follow satans system of things,.
blood that is donated by these people ,stored in a laboratory , and processed into fractions by laboratory staff and given to jehovahs witnesses with their consent.with no consequences to them for doing so.. blood is not poured out on the ground and not used for any purpose as their bible the nwt dictates.or any other bible for that matter..

The oldest son of one of my very best jw friend's died needing a blood transfusion to give him a fighting chance in his battle with a blood disease.
Then the "new lite" regarding blood fractions was handed down by 'god's channel of communication'. The boy could probably have made it with the fractions but too little too late for him. Years later my grief stricken friend took his own life because he never got over the bullsh*t ruling from the gb!
I find it extremely hypocritical also that jw's can 'donate' blood by having blood drawn for medical testing to determine certain medical conditions. So we can't take blood to save us from a known medical condition and thereby extend our life, but we can donate our blood to have it tested, inspected, homogenized, and pasteurized to determine if we have a disease that can shorten our life.
Every time my 'still in' jw wife goes to have a 'blood test', I remind her that she is actually donating blood and has no idea what happens to that "sacred" blood once she leave the lab. So far she hasn't commented.

Sheep and the Goats - The Light Gets Brighter
by nmthinker inperhaps some of you remember a new understanding of the sheep and the goats in the epic march 2015 wt study edition - specifically the article "loyally supporting christ's brothers".. while this article was studied many months ago, it was instrumental in helping me wake up.
during my study of the 2015 article i recalled that we had just revised our understanding of the sheep and the goats a few years ago and this caused me to research the real progression of the jw understanding of this parable.
i put the results of my research in an excel spreadsheet.. .

Since no one knows how we got here, why we are here, and how long we will be here, one persons guess is as good as another's. That how religion has flourished-by providing bullsh*t guesses and calling them answers!

The only reason they have the option of consolidating congregations into fewer kingdom halls is because the halls are half empty. They must have given up on their hope of filling halls to capacity through the preaching work. Amen brother!

"Faithful slave" can you READ the Bible - let alone EXPLAIN it?
by The Searcher inan org myth debunked - by the book they claim to have a better understanding of, than other religions.wt14 11/15 p. 30 - who are the two witnesses mentioned in revelation chapter 11?.
"......the account refers to god’s anointed ones who took the lead during a difficult time of testing.. so in the fulfillment of revelation chapter 11, the anointed brothers who took the lead at the time of the establishment of god’s kingdom in heaven in 1914 preached "in sackcloth" for three and a half years.
at the end of their preaching in sackcloth, these anointed ones were symbolically killed when they were thrown into prison for a comparatively shorter period of time, a symbolic three and a half days.

Chinese Communist Party to commence nationwide crackdown on Christianity including Jehovah's Witnesses
by jwleaks in8 october 2016. china's governing communist party is set to launch a nationwide crackdown on the christian church.. by matthew carney - abc.
the communist party has just enacted much tougher laws that criminalise christians if they do not pledge loyalty to the state.. chinese president xi jinping has warned that all religions now have to become "chinese" and the new laws will attempt to bring churchgoers and their leaders under party control.. the new laws will put the state firmly in charge, giving the communist party the ability to hire and fire church leaders and change religious doctrine to make it more chinese.... that means churchgoers will have to pledge loyalty to the communist party first.. there is good reason to be afraid.
chinese authorities have already started the crackdown in the christian heartland in the southern province of zhejiang.. it's been extensive and brutal.

When this 'news' starts circulating in the jw conversation circles, it will be about "only" jw's being persecuted in China!
The end must be near!

What steps did you take to free yourself from the cult? mentally or physically?
by HereIgo infirst i ignored all of the elders phone calls to send my recommendation letter to my new congregation, truth is i had already started my fade and moved across town and didn't have a new congregation.
i deleted all jw friends on facebook.
i also threw away all of my public talks recorded on cd, all literature, even my book bag and my bible.

Very little of 58 years as a JW remains as part of me, thankfully.
I'm with you Phizzy on how I freed myself from the clutches of the borg. I also spent about 58 years as a captive. It's pretty damn hard to free yourself from the only thing you ever allowed yourself to know and believe! The pain of facing the reality that the WTBTS is all a hoax was damn near unbearable after devoting nearly 6 decades of your life.
However, when things within the borg started failing the 'sniff test', that's when I did the unthinkable and started looking into the roots of jw's. The rest is history. I discovered the WTBTS to be very much a man made religion (as they all are) born at a time when people were less educated and/or less informed making them vulnerable.
Once freed from the borg mentally, it was easy to see that all religion and "holy books" are simply bull sh*t! To me the Bible is simply Hebrew mythology and nothing more.
Getting free mentally was the most important thing I found.

In mythology, the hero always gets away with shit that mere mortals are punished for. The Hebrew mythology, the Bible, has David as a hero and Saul the villian!
