Was not referring particularly to you Disposable but putting myself in her shoes my head would be spinning from all this conflicting advice. It's true, the support, sympathy and kindness are all invaluable but she really has to work this all out for herself, tough times ahead. Not at all easy.

My goodness no wonder this poor girl is utterly confused.. what with those elders, and then many implying there is no God.. others saying there is, others saying you must work in accord with your prayers and some that prayer is pointless.. some quoting the Bible.. others discrediting it..
I'm not sure how such utter conflicting confusion can be helpful except to confuse even further.

An important message from a PRACTICING Jehovah's witness
by Sparks inhi, i am also a practicing jehovah's witness and very proud of it,to say the very-very least..!
i am a middle-aged man with many decades of being a witness of jehovah god in england.. this important letter is personally to you, just as many of the bible's 88 letters are to be taken personal by you the reader.
i am writing to you to urge you to take stock of your life, think what your future holds for you.

88? Yes I can see how important these letters are to you, you can't even count them...
10. The Jehovah's witnesses are the only religion to understand all the Bibles books and prophesies and visions in infinite detail from Genesis 3:15 to Revelation 22:19
Pardon? For 130 years they have been getting it all wrong! Where have you been dude? Your organisation is blood guilty and blasphemous.

How many did you, personally, entrap in the Borg ?
by Phizzy inin my nearly 60 years in the religion, although i "studied" with a good number, i cannot think of any who could lay the blame at my door for being in the religion today.. one lad possibly might, i studied with him briefly as he was trying to get off drugs, he then moved away, and then married a "sister" a few years later, and is still in, but i doubt he would blame me, i hope not.. of the others i studied with none are still in, the last i heard of one of them, a weirdo kid, now weirdo man, was when he was arrested for "flashing" in a local spot frquented by doggers etc.
i guess i was a useless "tutor".
as it happens, that is one of the things i am proud to be a failure at, getting people to join a cult.. i always tried to not do proper r.v's, and never suggested a "study" to anyone, but some, like weirdo, were shoved my way by elders who didn't want the work themselves.. how many are you guilty of getting in to the cult ?.

None. Those that I studied with soon as I learned TTATT I went to them all and Un-studied with them. Not a single one now has anything to do with the Borg. They all teach TTATT.

Just read 'Jehovah Unmasked'. Here's what i think of it!
by lowden inwhen i first joined the forum a short while ago the aforesaid book was recommended to me after i ranted about the disgusting, genocidal machinations of jehovah.
nathaniel merritt, although i don't concur with all he says, is a very brave and bright guy.
his abhorence of the nightmarish evil perpetrated by this god mirrored the thoughts that i've been having for a few years now.

Rather the point was that children sometimes suffer as a result of what their parents do. Here is an analogy: on September 11th, as those 'planes hurtled towards the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, there were probably some babies and children on board. Those children had not done anything wrong that caused them to be there. But if the American Government had been able to respond fast enough and decisively enough, I am fairly sure they would have shot the planes down before they could be flown into the Pentagon and the World Trade Center.
Does this mean that the American Government condones the killing of babies and children? Surely not. The point is that the threat would have been large enough and serious enough for them to take drastic action, and because of this drastic action, innocent children would have died.
I believe that this is what was going on when the Israelites destroyed the Canaanites. One of the reasons we find it difficult to see it this way is that we do not take seriously enough the evil these nations were doing, or the threat they posed to God's good purposes for the whole world
What utterly ridiculous reasoning.

I thought this was a thread about a serious and passionate love story.. but it's just a whimsical and fickle 5 minute infatuation of foreign chick by a wet behind the ears school kid who still listens to his teachers on where he should take his holidays..
I'm outta here..

I have a neighbour that has a Staffordshire Bull terrier dog. They make the dog live on the outside balcony alwayts alone because he is dirty and smells like dog poo!. I don't think he has ever been near water. This evening I went and got him, took him into my flat and put him is my bath tub and gave him a good old scrub with doggy shampoo. He loved it and my bathroom was a complete mess and flooded and all walls spattered with muddy water.
But I don't care because now that this doggy smells and feels lovely he is now allowed inside the flat of his owners and even gets to sit on the sofa and get some love.
WIN! WIN!
