someone said on forum they knew someone df for not going to assigned meeting in old days .
An elders baptized Daughter in India got married to a non JW. She and her father was dis fellowshipped due to this. Her father was accused of being present in the church premises during that NON-JW wedding.
This got me infuriated, even when I was an active JW. I wrote an email about this to the concerned elders in the congregation but with no response.
has anyone noticed this new song?
i think it's absolutely beautiful.
it's got a film score quality about it, with depth and feeling.
Nice song but has an eerie tune, which I don't think would motivate the singers or the audience.
I had a chance to watch documentaries on North Korea which has songs performed by little children that are more motivating. After all, an oppressive regime could produce such nice tunes.
i always found it uncomfortable to informal witness to people but trying to convince a jw to jump ship brings much more pleasure..
I am absolutely comfortable being and declaring that I am a Happy Apostate. In my case, no family repercussions and hence maybe. My user name for this Forum authenticates that.
what simple pleasures do you enjoy since leaving watchtower?
here's some of mine, in no particular order:.
a cigar: i dont smoke cigarettes at all, but i do enjoy a good cigar from time to time.
The very thought of not going to meeting/Assemblies/ field services anymore - to hear and spread ancient superstitions - is a great pleasure. To add more, I wish friends and family on any festivals and Birthdays now. Buy Lottery for the thrill. Watch R rated movies without any guilt, plant seeds of doubt to unsuspecting JWs. Its all a Joy ride since I quit.
... that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him shall not be destroyed but have everlasting life” (john 3:16).. it just occurred to me that if parents were to follow this scripture, they would put their children to death if their children don’t obey/agree with them.

For God so loved the world , that he gave his only begotten son, to be tortured and killed with Excruciating pain, all for nothing !!.
hi i am just starting to rebuild my relationship with jehovah.
.
i would like to hear from people who may be or have been in similar situations and now want to dedicate their lives to him..
You have mentioned as "Returning to the Truth". Just make a research if WT (and Bible) really has the truth and then decide.
due to last years success, i will post everything related to the 2017 regional convention in this thread.. to start us off.... thanks to exjw reddit user ich3b we have advance notice of the theme (this is not a joke!).
the theme for the 2017 regional convention is: "don’t give up!” .
as always, if you have access to confidential materials you would like to leak but need to protect your identity, pm me or email me: wifibandit1 (at) gmail.
Regarding the convention theme "Do not Give up"
Nobody motivates me to "Not to give up" on my parents or my wife. They are very real and have provided tangible love all the time . I realize this very well and hence would never give up on them, all my life.
Nobody advises me not to give up on my belief on Gravity. We are convinced with truth and there need not be reminders.
Somebody advising me not to give up on something means there are a million justified reasons to give up.
why is enoch referenced in the bible but his book omitted?.
May be the Biblical "Compilers" thought there was enough bloodshed and nonsense in the existing books and there wasn't any need to add more.

15 - "when was god’s son made a king-priest like melchizedek?
this was 40 days after his resurrection from the dead, [33 c.e.
Ok, let it be so. But all these Enthronement and ruler ship aren't visible to humans. What a pity.
if i'm tierd i fall asleep anywere so the meetings ect were no diffrent my wife would always try to wake me but im a deep sleeper.
karter .
The toughest time for me was after Lunch in Assemblies/Conventions. Would feel so sleepy that I would get up and roam the corridors. Happy now, that I could doze off in my couch watching a boring movie, on a Saturday/Sunday afternoon.
