For those out there who are bitter and angry I just want to say feeling that way is a normal human response. It does not mean you are wicked, evil, or spiritually weak. These are normal feeling, and a reasonable reaction. And you can not stay there for an extended time and be healthy. Just as someone crying can not keep weeping for an extended period. We need time to work thru these emotions.

The latest change in Watchtower vocabulary to catch out the unwary
by slimboyfat ini got a copy of the recent kingdom ministry the other day and it reminded me of something in the book the orwellian world of jehovha's witnesses by heather and garry botting.
it's on the front page of the december issue of the km, they have a heading called "not 'alternative' witnessing" where they explain that the term is no longer considered appropriate and "public" witnessing should be used instead.. in the orwellian world of jehovah's witnesses the bottings discuss the importance of the particular language jws use to set themselves apart from other people.
they redefine common words to give them a particular slant, such as "brother", "sister", "literature" and so on.

My Story
by TheWanderer ini found this site quite a few months ago, after a curiosity search on wikipedia about jws and what's going on with the organization.
i was unfortunately born into it, 4th-generation; my great-grandfather was a special pioneer spreading the word in the early 1900s.
it was all i knew growing up, even though i struggled between trying to conform to make everyone happy ... and finding my own way in life.

You have been through a lot and survived. It is hard to swallow the notion that WBTS are Jehovah's spirit annointed organization when you hear stories like this one.

WT cautions against playing pac-man 1982 Awake
by EndofMysteries inwith bizarre names like pac-man, asteroids, space invaders, battlezone and donkey kong, video games have landed themselves not only in amusement arcades but also in corner drugstores, supermarkets, gas stations, fast-food parlors and nearly everywhere else that people congregate.
their beeps and booms and colorful lights have captured the fancy and imagination of a new generation of players to the point of obsession.. other than the obvious appeal to teenagers and its commercial success, the proliferation of arcade video games has triggered reactions ranging from strong parental protests to outright government bans.
in the philippines, president marcos officially banned the games and gave owners two weeks to destroy them.

Religion v. Spirituality
by Shanagirl inthere is not one religion, but hundreds.
there is only one type of spirituality.
religion is for those who want to continue rituals and the formality.

A religious person will either approve or disapprove of what someone says. A spiritual person can accept what another person says because they accept that we are all on a journy and some are further along then others. A religious person only sees who is below them and looks down. Not very accepting and devisive. Whereas spiritual is accepting and sees the common ground.

I as I read this thread I couldnt help but imagine the GB walking around bethel looking for bethelites who where laughing and having fun. When the GB found out what they were having fun with that was their next no fun rule to be covered in up coming watchtower. If you think they keep the congregations under their thumb you should see how controlling they are at bethel.
