Examples of JW evasiveness/dishonesty
by BONEZZ in
1. jw
2. friends
being born and bred into the borg i always felt it was the "truth" but i wasn't the one who measured up i was not good enough to be a dub.

but i also had nagging questions that went unanswered by the most learned elders...or at least not answered to my satisfaction.

their "answers" were in fact not really answers but side-steps or attempts to mis-direct my question into an area they could answer.. an example...it always bothered me that we could not examine the contents of what opposers put out.

Did U ever wonder - if the end was so close - why were we building Kh's?
by AK - Jeff in
1. jw
2. experiences
i always wondered why we were not spending the money to build halls in remote and poor areas that needed them - but instead we would build new halls and sell old ones in places where we were seeing little growth.. every congregation in this area has built a new hall in the past 20 or so years.

yet the congs are the same basic size they were before.

most have had a least one major remodel since building new.

If you won the Lottery big time, would you be happier?
by Rod P in
1. jw
2. friends
how many of us imagine winning the big one, and all our problems in life would be solved.

we could get whatever we wanted without worrying about money, could buy our way out of almost any situation (like the rich folks do), go on any vacation anywhere in the world, dress to the nines on a daily basis, and use our wealth to get others to do our bidding.. money = sex, power, influence, decadent luxury = happiness???.

The 1000 Year Stupid Doctrine
by Nosferatu in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
to me, the 1000 years that jws promise after armageddon is a really dumb doctrine.

basically, everyone who cacked before armageddon is going to be resurrected, and everyone on earth is going to grow perfect during these 1000 years.

then, bastard jehovah is going to let satan loose for "a little while" to basically clean out any evil that is on the earth.. so, what's the point of paradise erf?
