  smiddy3,
  Is God so incompetent that he can`t say what he means ? or that he does not mean what he says ?

  Better still why didn't Jesus write something down, after the books of Matthew Mark Luke and John all of them just quoting what Jesus said?

  We could have the book of Jesus straight from the horse's mouth.....But ohhh NOOOO! That would make things to clear and understandable

  Would you?

  by Half banana in

  2. beliefs

  would you join a religion which punishes you if you later on change your mind and choose to leave it?.

  would you join a religion which claims to be the only one guided by god and yet has always got their prophetic utterances entirely wrong?.

  would you join a religion which changes its beliefs every few years?.

  Ex-Jehovah's Witness Recovering Group 3 and This Site

  by dubstepped in

  2. friends

  i don't remember seeing it ever really talked about here but the facebook group with the namesake of this post shut down at the end of march.

  it was archived and they weren't clear as to when or if they would come back.

  it seemed to come out of nowhere, and i know a lot of people were disappointed.

  Thank you for raising this topic dubstepped

  From what I gather Simon has basically built a lot of this custom himself. He, as far as I know, seems to be the only mod. So you know he gets a ton of messages and problems between people here to deal with. I don't know what he does exactly behind the scenes but my guess is there's some SEO involved and other things to keep up with. Props to Simon for keeping this place open while so many others fold.

  I agree wholeheartedly

  So thank you to Simon, and to your wife as well who I think does things behind the scenes or just supports you in this (I don't know who does what), because it isn't easy and you're truly helping people. This place was a lifesaver for me.

  Yes, I too would like to thank Simon and his wife for the time and effort you put in to keeping this site up and running.

  Simon very much appreciated.

  For a novice like myself, this is by far the easiest site to navigate.

  Keep up the good work, again thank you, Simon.

  you all may recall a recent news article i posted.

  it was about a bus driver who abused several school children.

  while the news never really dived into his personal life, i did mention here that he is a well known elder to the hall i used to attend.. two new charges have been brought against him and now the bail is up to $420,000.

  Watchtower Spin archives: Hayden C. Covington, J.F. Rutherford, and Muhammed Ali

  by TerryWalstrom in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  there are a number of salient facts concerning this man who possessed a big reputation.. 1. covington and rutherford were pretty much the type a personalities who got along famously.

  in fact, rutherford wanted covington to be the next gb executive of the watchtower corporation.. 2. fred franz and nathan knorr were the polar opposites to the (above) dynamic duo.

  these two would conspire to drive covington out.

  Random Musing of an ex-JW between a rock and a hard place.

  by StarTrekAngel in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  many of you may recall pass postings of mine where i mentioned my plans of moving away from my current neighborhood.

  mainly because my office got moved and now my commute is about one hour each way.

  my employer is pretty flexible so showing up on time, for now, is not an issue.

  Yesterday my wife informed me that she had finally decided that she will..... but with one condition... that my wife returns to meetings.

  This is emotional blackmail.

  Explain to your wife this and it's your terms, not the MIL.

  MIL has no right to put this on you and you flatly will not accept this full stop.

  my 2 cents

  Receiving so much hate recently....

  well, as you all know, my wife (unstuck) and i are not df or da.. we just stopped attending several years back after my "apostate" online activity was found by a nosey employee of ours while she was working in our office (long story if anyone wants to know - it would have to be another thread).

  we never met with any elders - no congregation judicial activity occurred (as we would never consent to do so anyway).

  so our policy has been to be the same kind, loving, normal people we have always been.
