  ~Humble and Childlike~

  by freeflyingfaerie in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  you remember the 'encouragement' to be teachable, humble, like little children.... well, children ask questions, and lots of 'em.... so, what happens when we keep on wondering and have questions that demand answers?.

  according to jw's, a person has to stop being teachable like little children.

  a person is told not to do any real research (which requires humility, a sense of wonder, and openness to new ideas and concepts)....for fear that research done outside of the organizations approved sources- their own- a person may discover contradictions and lies.

  Simple Signs That Cause Jehovah's Witnesses To Lose Morale (Faith In The Governing Body Corporation Kings)

  by frankiespeakin in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  a good way to get the jws doubting corporation leadership, is lower their morale in the governing body.

  pointing out their stupidity, authoritarianism, delusions of grandure, and the depts of their wishful thinking bias done in such a way to overide watchtower inplanted prejudice.. highlighting the phobias they have of apostates, their attitude toward children as nothing more that corporation free labor denying them education and handing them over to pedofiles in the congregation be they elders or microphone handlelers.. signs about doctrinal issues are a waste of time but i can't deny that some may benifit but that's just getting them out of one cult and making them pray for another.

  anyway the bible is too full of shit to argue doctrine, much better to stay away from it and proceed to spend more time get oneself free from that residual mind control you're still clinging to that's based in the bible.. what are your ideas?.

  Encounter at McDonalds

  by jws in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so i was helping some friends move and it came time for a break, i took my kids to mcdonalds.

  we're sitting there and there's a family across from us, man, wife, 2 kids under 4. in the next booth is this older guy, maybe late 60's.. i'm not really paying attention, but then this older guy says something to the family about everybody being "me-first" these days.

  so that caught my ear.

  There are defining moments in every man's life?

  by Narcissistic Supply in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there are defining moments in every mans life.defining moments of how we see ourselves.. defining moments of what we identify with.. defining moments of what we stand for.. defining moments of what we believe.. i think all of these defining moments need to be examined.. they need to be examined for their factual basis.. they need to be examined from a different perspective.. its tough to keep it real when everybody wants a hand out.. its tough to keep it real when everybody has an agenda.. its tough to keep it real when everyone [around you is] a snake oil salesman.. its a little complicated.. somehow you have to pull your head out and figure out what is actually truth and not the mnemonic that vvatchtower says is truth.

  somehow you actually have to think for yourself.. somehow you have to draw on your ability to reason.. somehow you have to think logically.. somehow you have to actually look at the facts and not what vvatchtower tells you are facts.. our minds are 87 percent visual.. im thinking that 83 percent of the 7 million jws actually believe what they see.. [other jw's affirming the nonsense].

  im thinking that eventually 17 percent will actually believe the nonsense that they see.

  Foreign language groups

  by dissonance_resolved in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  foreign language groups are the fastest growing groups of jws in the western world.

  the best and brightest jws are drawn to them for the privileges, the challenge, the feeling of being special.

  but in my experience, being in one of these groups has a side effect.

  The Fake "Joy" Of Jehovah's Witnesses

  1. jw
  2. friends

  do you observe this "joy" when you see witnesses going from house to house, in the kingdom halls, out working, or during theocratic wholesome recreational activities?.

  Are you thankful to know TTAT or not?

  by laverite in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i am so thankful that i was able to learn the truth about the truthtm (ttatt).

  i owe everything in my life to having left watchtower corp: my education, my position as a college professor, being able to write and publish, travel, family life, my beautiful children, being able to be openly gay -- and happy.

  unlike those closeted homosexuals in the truthtm, i do not have to be afraid to be who i am.
