i guess you can tie jehovahs, and any other organized religion with this:.
"if your religion makes you think any people are spiritually inferior to others or.... if your science makes you think some class of people mentally inferior to others or.... if your politics makes you think some people should be politically inferior to others.... .
then you are doing it wrong and you need to rethink your philosophy from first principals.
There's a vast difference between thinking someone or whatever belief is wrong and actually and absolutely being wrong.
Whatever category religion, science or politics, there will always be argument, debate, discussion.
But to fly in the face of proven evidence is to be wrong and many deluded are in this category citing faith as their reasoning.

idk if waking up has been good for me.
i still have almost no friends.
im still waiting to graduate this december to qualify n b certified for my job.
Literally before we wake up from sleep , we may have had a wonderful dream where the impossible seems blissfully real.
Unfortunately the reality of full consciousness makes us face the hard realities of life.
How we handle this is the key to happines albeit no ones life is a bed of rosies.
This is the position you're in.
The world is your oyster!... go for it!!
Best wishes

have you ever heard that statement?
i have heard it many times and i just don't know what to do with it.
they are chosing a to live a lie because they like the lifestyle.
Space m ..you are of course entitled to choose your ' option ', but most in the theistic camp don't see it as an option, to them it's an absolute.
Therein lies the rub, if you know the teachings are false in what way would you have the best way of life based on a known falsehood.
Is it not better to pursue a lifestyle based on being true to yourself.
This course is surely imo better for those to whom you are close to and may look to you for guidance and example.

as a jehovah's witness:.
two things finally struck me:.
for now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now i know in part, but then i will know fully just as i also have been fully known.. _______________________.
The gb reasoning is designed to manipulate in their favor. It has to, they have to keep the $$$ machine rolling.
I do have sympathy for those who allow themselves to be cajoled in this way.
Sites like this are absolutely necessary( thanks Simon )to hopefully allow them to see ttatt.
It has for many !!
Best wishes .

Hi jwfacts... how about the... warogs!!

i updated the list of partakers to 2013 (see below)...if i was to predict as to what new light might be coming down the borg poop shoot may be.
i would predict that they need to do something about the 144,000 being a literal number.. for two reasons:.
1. the number of partakers is increasing every year.
The typical jw mind set will accept ANY noooo light crap thrown at them.
To doubt or reject it means critical thinking which will lead to traumatic changes in their lives they know this because as soon as they begin to doubt the gb ( fds parable distorters ) they can feel it, so just as the addict will keep using the JWs keep drinking the koolaid.
as i mentioned in a recent thread, i've relatively new here.
have been lurking for a few weeks and just started posting.. one of the things i'm finding interesting about this site is how often someone posts a set of jw published material that contradicts each other.
for example the other day someone posted about lecithin.
Oh deets...that's so funny mine was feeling guilty about eating marshmallows !!!.
I think my jw sister still seperates the pink from the white.lol
Oh those crazy days.
