Is it ok to malign another's faith?
by bluecanary ini've seen this come up on multiple threads.
rather than derail them all, i'd like to talk about it here.. jws seem to feel that it is a form of persecution for anyone to question, doubt or speak negatively of their beliefs or organization.
yet, they are taught to do this to other religions.

Letter to former JW friends
by bluecanary inmy mother has been burning to write a letter to old friends among the witnesses.
we move around so much and were never great at keeping in touch.
no one knows we've left the b0rg, but we don't care who finds out.

Do you know your personality type?
by bluecanary inwhat is your myers-briggs personality type?
if you're unfamiliar with it, you can take a test here: http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/jtypes2.asp.
be warned that the test can be wildly inaccurate.

Why the JWs must get EVERYTHING right
by bluecanary insome feel that it is enough for the witnesses to understand a few major doctrines correctly.
whatever doctrines are important to you--trinity, hellfire, the soul, etc--if the jws are in agreement with your own beliefs on the subject, is that enough to make them a religion worth being a part of?.
the society is fond of using the illustration of a beautifully prepared, tasty and nutritious meal.

the following information has been compiled from various sources on the web, including jwfacts.com and free minds.
a fraction of it is from my own mind.
