I know they're called exes for a reason, but my ex-gf and I had repaired our relationship which had been ruined due to my awakening. She had stopped talking to me for months after the elders told her no to associate with anyone who disagrees with the "slave." Of course since she has her own doubts and she still loves me, she eventually began talking to me again. We've been talking regularly since. Today I get a text, "what did you think of today's WT?" I replied, "I don't know." She replies, "I liked it. It was a real eye opener." I replied "how?" So far no response. It's been hours. We haven't talked about anything JW related since we started communicating again. I'm just so angry right now, even though we arent even dating again. WT destroys relationships.

WHY are so many "spiritual" young men in the congo soo insipid?
by hamsterbait inthe last gathering i went to, i was impressed by how submissive and compliant the young men were.
more like sweet little old ladies (not knocking old women here).
they were socially inept, and non-assertive.

Many change their behavior once they realize being submissive and meek is unattractive to women.

Why The Watchtower Must Abolish Judicial Committees
by metatron insome years ago, i upset some crypto-watchtower apologists by stating that the organization must eventually either abolish the co arrangement or radically change it because it creates a direct chain of liability by chain of command and makes them a hierarchy (without catholic level assets or influence to support such a structure).. i would make a similar argument with regard to judicial committees.
i do not contend that the watchtower would get rid of these repellent anachronisms simply because they are unethical in form and use but rather that they represent an increasing liability/obstacle to the organization's survival.. why?.
1) such committees tend to open up all sorts of legal challenges and dangers.

They can easily abolish JC if thet want. It's not scriotural. They can also say, "after further review, the ruling on the field has been overturned. Judicial committees are not theocratic. We will be updating to a new "theocratic" method after 60 years in the same manner we just did with elder appointments. touchdown JW.org!"
I see them eventually making DF ing a personal matter, enforced by elders in the same way dress and grooming is enforced by elders. Those seen hanging with weak ones will not get privileges.

Ripple Effect
by Yondaime inon tuesday i was dragged out on service with my mom since shes a permanent pioneer, and once we arrived at the hall i realized there were no brothers, but an abundance of sisters.
i conducted the service meeting with ease, since my dad gave me a formation on how to do it.. then on thursday at my meeting nearly half of the congregation surrounded me and gave me hugs and kisses.
i know about love bombing, its happened to me before, but this was the most insane amount of it ever since i had a demonstration at the district convention.

Half of them will claim they saw it coming all along. They have to believe you're a bad person so that they can justify shunning you. We learned about that in psychology. People can rationalize inhumane treatment of other people by believing the other person deserves it.

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.

Using your logic why do you spend time writing apostates on the internet in direct opposition to the governing body? Is it because you're desperately trying to justify why you're still a member despite the obvious flaws you mentioned. Are you attempting to fight your apostate tendencies as a closet apostate?

Bible verses removed from NWT at jw.org
by hardtobeme inwhy would they remove bible verses from the bible?.
anyone knows why?.
-
kneehighmiah
I just went to the website. They have chapters, but the chapters are no longer divided into verses. Very strange. So if you read Matthew 24, you cannot determine where verse 14 begins, becaus verses are no longer listed.

JW.org to be regarded as fulfillment of the signs of the last days.
by jwfacts ini struggled as a jw to accept that the good news of the kingdom was ever going to be preached in all the inhabited world by jws, as there were many parts of the world with few to no jws.
there are not enough to cover the 3 billion plus people in asia to allow everyone to get a chance to hear the message.
it also was offensive to me that jehovah would kill those billions that had never had a chance to accept the watchtower message.

I had the opportunity to use this special campaign month to share jwfacts.com with my grandmother. Now she will be better equipped to handle discussions with my parents. She has zero interest in reading the propaganda at JW.org and neither do most people.
