  Big mac, yes it is appalling, but some of us aren't in a position to just up and leave yet.

  Pushing boundaries is an excellent suggestion. Little and often.

  Sorry to hear that matey, I can't take notes on exactly what I want but my writing is so terrible that I could probably get away with it if I tried. I'm become more accepting of my situation as time goes on, I hope the missus wakes up but until then I'm fairly content (ish) to play along. Let's see how long that lasts.

  Even under scrutiny you ccould be doing research on the jw app on your phone, no one can slag you off for reading the bible!

  Officially parting ways : (

  some of you might remember my first post on here about my dilemma of whether or not to remain in a relationship with my jw girlfriend after learning ttatt http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/experiences/278710/1/im-new-and-need-help#.u-kltpldvyq.

  while we were taking a break, well it turned out to be not very much of a break because of our still strong feeling for each other (we eventually went from talking every few weeks to once a week and then to everyday again) and things started to get complicated.

  well last night we officially decided that it would be best for the both of us to at least part ways for now and end things.

  I do not intend this to give false hope, but I'm a hopeless optimist and just wonder if her KNOWING how much you love her will make her realise what a hard decision this was, and might therefore make her think about it more. You never know, she might ffollow you out. I hope so, and quickly..

  Someone from here might actually be at the one you're going to. Arrange a meet up. If you're with family they could say they're friends of friends or old quick build buddies or something....

  I did it last year. I occupied my mind with reviewing what I knew about ttatt. I read the context of the scriptures they were quoting to see what was REALLY meant in the writing. I made notes on stuff I wanted to look up later. I daydreamed. And I viewed the whole thing as "supporting my missus in her chosen pastime" as if she'd wanted to go to a knitting convention but didn't want to go alone. That made it bearable. And obviously the long toilet breaks where I logged on here to catch up!

  Two weeks to go eh! Me too. If you can't get out of it, you'll find ways to make it bearable. Go chat with the apostates campaigning outside!

  What Could Hacker Do To The JW.Org Site?

  by frankiespeakin in

  1. social
  2. current

  i really don't know anything about what hackers do.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/hacker_(computer_security).

  in the computer security context, a hacker is someone who seeks and exploits weaknesses in a computer system or computer network.

  hackers may be motivated by a multitude of reasons, such as profit, protest, challenge or enjoyment.

  It'd be interesting if hackers could get into the hq database and see personal records, lists of paedophile reports etc....

  Contradictory geneology of Jesus

  by rebel8 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so i'm reading another carl sagan book and he seems to invariably find a way to slam j-dubs in each one.

  (i can't say i blame him.).

  anyway, in this one he discusses the fact that the gospels give contradictory geneologies of jesus--differing lines back to david from joseph, and a different number of generations.

  ive pasted the following from a uk xjw facebook page.:.

  i found out last night that thursday,just gone, a member of the gb came to rosehill congregation in bolton to tell them the gb will now be more active and a more prominent part of their lives, this is to build trust and make it so when they revel new direction in the future, people don't push against them and they follow them.

  it's a long shot shot but what are the chances he will be at any other meeting in this district this sunday and how can i find out?.

  while i'm glad i found this site, it has also crumbled to bits everything i've believed in my whole life.

  i feel like the certainty, magic and wonder has gone out of my life.

  this has left a huge hole in my soul.

  Can anyone disprove 607 BCE date using only the NWT and WT literature?

  by Bart Belteshassur in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i haven't come across any arguement that does not involve secular history and external references.

  in fact the wt can not get to 607 bce without using external sources as in knowing that they need to get back from 1914 ce to 607 bce, and botching an argument using an external date as reference to create their start point at 537 bce.. i realize that to get the final date we must provide a fixed figure from somewhere which can only be a historical source, but the objective would be to disprove the wt flim flam.

  once that is achieve we can use which ever fixed historical point they wish to chose.
