Awaiting punishment.?
by lulu inyesterday november 3rd my husband and i had a visit from three elders( grand jury) as we had given them proof of the affliation of the wtbts to the un.they wanted us to recant and say the society was telling the truth (same old thing only for libary pass not ngo) and to say that the un were liars(all 30,000 who work there, apparently jw's also work there).
when we refused to compromise our integrity after 21/2 hours they departed saying they would let us know their decision!!.
we were obviously wrong when we thought only jehovah was the judge, so there you go, we were wrong again!

call yourself apostates!
by Brummie inwhen in the wt we seldom heard of anyone becoming "apostate", sure there was 1 or 2 in the usa somewhere (durrr) but very seldom would we call anyone who left "apostates", so why does it appear that everyone calls themselves apostate if they left for other reasons?
the mindset of most jws was that an "apostate" was someone who left the wts to join another religion in the world empire of false religion (btg), right?
not that it matters at all but just wondering.. .

I can remember that the word "apostate" was always said in a hushed voice, along with "evil slave" and yes there didnt seem to be many around back when I was a JW, but I contribute that to lack of information for example the internet.

You are never really alone in life
by kenpodragon inrecently as i posted on this site, a very dear friend of mine lost her child in a most terrible manner.
it has been five days now, and they have laid the child to rest, but the love that had poured out to these two parents has been astounding.
the thing is, the love that is the most surprising is the love that has come from the online friends.

"So never forget, no matter if you leave here and move on in life, or you post only from time to time. You might think it sometimes, and worry it is just you alone in this life. In reality though, "you are never alone, there are many people always with you!"
Dragon..............."respect" to you for speaking the way you do
