how interesting!
see a similarity?.
joey jojo: "pure grape juice"? Greek word for wine is "oinos" the same greek word used in
Ephesians 5;18 "do not get drunk on pure grape juice". Ok that doesn't make sense to get drunk
on grape juice. Jesus made some kick ass, back wood, red mountain wine. If you are going to make
up a story, make it interesting. Turning water into grape juice is no big deal, you just drop a few grapes
in the vat.
Yes I agree "belief truly is the enemy of reason".
if i have time i always talk to jws when i see a cult cart.. they are in a public forum promoting a harmful ideology therefore they are fair game.
having said that, the individual jws on the trolley are not the enemy so i think it's better to keep it as friendly and non-confrontational as possible.. being realistic no jw is going to admit they are wrong because of something we say to them on the street but don't underestimate the long-term effect of doubts.. so what are your ideas for how to approach them?.
personally i like to use the literature on the cart.
wt would be the first article.
i found a publication called bull shit.
the top bs publication .
WT would be the first article. I found a publication called bull shit. The top BS publication
"www.diserio.com/bullshit.html" diserio.com
Call it top ten BS religions. I would buy one.
Being a JW helped me to understand the meaning of insanity.
1)Everyone expecting you not to fall apart when you find out everything you believe
in was a lie.
2)One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's
work is terribly important.
I learned a lot from my time from that organization on lunacy.
Think about it, we were in "the one who flew over the cuckoo's nest" and most of
us came out with our minds intact and we learned so much about insanity.
today talking with my jw daughter (the one that told me she will never shun me, no matter how.
much pressure they put on her) and i heard my 4 year old grandson in the background.
so i told her.
SafeAthome:I would love to see that article"should have to choose between their family or religion.
sparky1:Yes so beautiful.
Crazyguy:DF in 1986, I'am sure that's why there is a big problem in my JW family members with
the shunning.They believe I will someday come to my senses and come back after 30 years.LOL

say hi to him fro me. She told him and he yelled out over the phone, I love you grand Pa.
I hate that organization and the damage it cause for families.
I read stories from you guys about the shunning , not knowing your grandkids and it's
painful. I also have another daughter( JW) and grand kids, haven't seen or talk to in 15 years..
i found out this morning that my brother died last night, he was also an ex jw, 73 years old and died of heart disease and kidney failure.
it was not totally unexpected, as he had been in poor health, but it's a blow, especially as i just lost another brother two years ago.
there were six of us, now only four.
i also heard the video was being discussed on howard stern today.
.
Is it me but have you notice the media lately especially commercials, interracial couples and gay
couples. The media is very powerful. That's why I have high hopes for mankind..
In the 70's talks shows were flooded with racial hate groups, the more you were expose to
their hate speech the more you could see their stupidity. We see the same with gays to day,
the WT is out of touch with todays society, more like folks in the OT.

more light for our ex jw members.... http://www.extj.com/showthread.php?27719-the-show-of-apple-jam-by-president-s-brother-the-accounting-chaste.
in patterson there is a group of brothers, all of them baptized after 1975, a group of them are candidates to all new gb membership, as soon as new places will be included or some members will passed away.
clear details and info tell us that a new gb will be a us citizen with mexican background.. really funny to see that we can give light to our ex jw family months before it comes public :).
