  Reasons for reading about the hidden secrets of the Watch Tower religion

  by Terry in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  the volume of e-mail i have received from still-in jw's because of reading my book has startled me.. somebody sends them a copy and they secretly read it.

  that's gratifying enough, certainly, but--they take the.

  trouble to e-mail me or contact me on facebook, and that boggles my mind.. .

  And how about this...God says he wouldbt test us more than he could bear...when God allows a man to molest and murder a little girl....then the mother or father can not take the pain and anguish...and the mother or father kill themselves....whos learned empathy? The familywhose survived the dead ones? Seems an extremely cruel way to teach emoathy and compassion....ay?

  The one thing for sure is they know about these sites...whether its a returning JW who "told on us" or the increased partakers....the point is they know.

  Why do the Governing Body do it ??

  by Phizzy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  when i was an active jw the constant demands for loyalty and obedience to the gb used to really annoy me, and mrs phizzy.. why on earth do they do it in such a shrill, screaming and obvious way ?.

  they sound like spoilt kids, "you must play the game our way".. it was partly that constant harping that really helped me to wake up, i came to see just how much they had usurped the place of jesus.. surely it is counter-productive to do the demands as they do, loud and blatant.

  they could get the same results with a seemingly humble attitude, after all, the new pope is the vicar of christ by title, but he comes over as humble..

  My question is whats the point? Do they carry home the money that comes in? Do they have a luxurious life because of all this power? Or is it that they truly believe that they are who they say they are? what motive is it behind them to control all these people? For many cults its so its leader or leader cqn get rich and buy nice houses and cars, etc. Granted Rutherford did this but what proof do we have that the leaders today are that way?
