  Repository for JW "experiences" with Hurricane Harvey

  by sir82 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it's only a matter of time of course..... jw rumor mills will start up soon, with stories of how jws were "first on the scene" as the flood waters receded..... how the red cross and/or us national guard and/or doctors without borders and/or [you name it] were marveling at just how "organized" the jws are..... how zealous jws were pulling their trolleys thru ankle-deep water to "offer comfort" to victims, by giving them - sandwiches?

  bottled water?

  to offer them comfort by giving them 16 page "magazines" to read in their spare time..... so as the stories start to come in, you can "deposit" those little nuggets of bs here.. once collected, we'll wrap them in a pretty bow and flush them away where other instances of pure manure go..

  As I have tried to reason with my lovely jw wife, if jehober really loves mankind "so much that he gave his only begotten son" to save them why would he allow such catastrophes, both man made and so called natural disasters, to occur that claim so many human lives? If jesus could calm a windstorm on the Sea of Galilee to save his apostles, why doesn't he help the jw's in Houston with this hurricane? And what would really be impressive and prove that jw's have the troof is if jw's were were the only ones unaffected by these catastrophes. Now that would be a witness for sure!

  The true meaning of "Jehovah" and the "overlapping generation" REVEALED!

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  there has been some renewed interest in the meaning of the name jehovah on the forum in recent weeks.

  combined with the ongoing discussion about the new "overlapping generation" teaching, speculation among the friends and among the ex-friends has been reaching something of a frenzy.

  so it's perhaps appropriate that a little more should be revealed now about the meaning behind some of the perplexing events that have been taking place.

  Need help with a reference dealing with the Generations and SPLAINE

  by ttdtt in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  when originally explaining the "new generations" splaine used the example of joseph and his brothers.. he backed up the time difference between the original anointed, and the new ones by using what he said was a big age difference between the youngest "joseph" and his oldest brothers.. then more recently in a jw broadcast - he said that there was not a big age difference between joseph and his oldest brother.. can any one help me find both those, please?.

  “For those who understand, no explanation is needed. For those who do not understand, no explanation is possible.”

  One does not need to explain fantasy (overlapping generations) just enjoy it for what it is (stupidity). I truly believe that this "overlapping generation" bull sh*t is the final nail in the coffin for many jw's

  Is The Watchtower Corporation Facing A Meltdown Of Confidence Among Its Members?

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  looking at all the narcissistic bull shit the watchtower corporation has been spewing out for the world to see about suffering of its members to as nothing worth being very concerned about and as jehovah magnificent be vindicated is much more important.

  have they really gone off their rocker enough for a very sizable portion of membership to see their insanity and jump ship?.

  i think definitely they are losing all respect from their internet savy members as their madness becomes obvious.

  In my personal experience I have 'unofficially' faded. I am a rare attender at meetings with no fs and I attend assemblies and conventions so that my wife will not have to be there by herself and answer a bunch of nosy questions from nosy jw's.

  Having been an elder for over 2 decades, most of the local brothers still have a fondness and a 'sort of respect' for me. I believe this respect is born out of the fact that I was many times a contrarian but I could back up my contrary view with the bible and/or statements published in the wt literature. Because of this many of my former very close jw friends still ask me questions about things when the borg comes up with their 'nu lite' bs. Many of these life long jw's are losing confidence in the wt and beginning to question some of the sh*t they see and hear. So, IMHO, yes the confidence level is sinking fast.

  Just A Thought Regarding The Bunker Video

  by pale.emperor in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  as ridiculous as the bunker video was, a few things popped into my consciousness as i was riding the train today.

  firstly, why did they go to all the expense and effort to not only create a bunker, but to furnish it like a living room complete with coffee table, armchair, shelves etc?

  i mean, a bunker should be a bunker... boxes of tinned food, tools, medical supplies, emergency gear etc.

  I remember distinctly after seeing this video at the RC whispering to my (still in) wife, "Why do the witnesses need to hide out in bunkers or basements? Doesn't jehober "protect" his loyal ones? I guess the ones in the bunker were not loyal enough."

  What Is the JW Belief Regarding the Millennium?

  by Cold Steel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  most christian religions believe it will be a thousand-year period of peace.

  jws, however, seem to believe in the resurrection and then life on paradise earth.

  but do they believe in the millennium the way other christians do -- where the lion will lay down with the lamb [bzzzt...mandela effect correction] wolf will lay down with the lamb?

  Calling Out Jehovah's Witness Leaders for a violation of NEUTRALITY

  by TerryWalstrom in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  _______________by the time 1967 arrived, my religious leaders in the kingdom hall had taken me aside and given me the straight dope.the vietnam war and the draft created existential problems for young jehovah's witness males.

  the governing body was unusually silent (in public) about issues of this nature except to pontificate in print in the most general terms.

  jw's didn't fight in wars because we were neutral.

  Hey Terry,

  Rutherfraud was a lawyer first and the figure head leader of a religious cult second. As a lawyer, a litigator, he had a natural inclination to be adversarial and adversarial he was in every way. He was determined, once he gained control of the wtbts, to make it his OWN personal religion, which he pretty much did! Nearly everything that main stream christian religions did, he did the opposite. He knew that controversy captures attention. He was the very definition of a charlatan! The sh*t that he and mad Freddy set in motion certainly had an adverse effect of the lives of many sincere people. Jim Jones on a larger scale!

  Again Terry,

  Another fine description of what it was like to grow up a jw during the Vietnam war era. I went thru the same sh*t as you did, except I was a married man (I mean a married kid) lol. Damn near lost my wife do to her philandering while I was "locked up" for my 'firm convictions'.

  I got the same drill from the congregation about how to handle myself in front of the draft board and eventually the US court. Of course the information they provided was "unofficial" and my own conscience had to be my guide! lol

  I think that in California we got a different treatment after we got out of 'jail'. People out here are a lot more liberal than Texas from what I can discern so the stigma of being a 'draft dodger' was embraced much differently. Hope to meet you one day!
