Massive donations to the WTS
by greendawn inhave any of you or people that you know such as relatives or friends, made a very significant donation to the wts?
by that i mean property, or money in excess of let's say $10 000. .
enriching an already very rich organisation has to be moronic, they are the ones that should be helping the poor among them the proverbial orphans and widows.

My interesting anti-witness to a phone rep......
by megsmomma ini am really excited about this...i feel like it was "meant to be".. i called my cell phone company to see about getting my grandparents on the same net work, but had to make sure they would get reception in both places they live.
(they go back and forth from nevada to ohio) i also checked into getting them the same type of phone i have so i could show them how to work the darn thing.. the woman i spoke to was very nice and she said she wanted to commend me for showing such love to my grandparents and how there weren't a-lot of people who would do that.
i told her that they were wonderfull grandparents and are really like my parents because they have taken over the parent role to me since my own are in a cult and have disowned my family.. we talked a little about that and i said i wasn't angry with my parents, just sad because they are being tricked into thinking they are doing the right thing...and she asked "if you don't mind saying, what religion are they in?

Jehovah's Witness Children are Kept Alienated from the rest of the world!
by Gill inthe watchtower continues to encourage jw parents to alienate their children from people who are not jws and therefore discourage a more balanced view of the world and the people in it!.
september 15th watchtower, 2007 says on page11:.
'of course, our children's attitudes can be influenced both for good and for bad.

Does anyone else feel like this???
by YoungAmerican ini don't post much but sure do love reading everyone else's post.
everyone here for the most part seems so normal (for apostates, haha).
so, i was born and raised a jw, baptized at 14, disfellowshipped at 17, reinstated at 28. the only reason i think i did that was because after 10 years of no contact with my father, mother and little sister they came to visit me (they lived on the east coast i live on the west coast) and i was so overwhelmed with seeing them and talking to them and hugging them, i wanted so much to please them and have a relationship with them again that i fooled myself into thinking i needed the "organization" and jehovah's approval to be worthy of their love.
