  It's the "abyss" that Satan and the demons will be tossed into.

  Keep an eye on this one!

  i wanna make a poll here.

  how many years do you think the jdub cult will exist as is and what will happen to it?.

  i say the growth stops this year and starts to decline.

  All previous "big deals" did not have the power of the internet behind them and all the JWs "green lighted" to use the internet. ( at the meetings, even )

  Curiosity killed the cat and all that.
  I really need to place some JWFACTS signs here and there...

  for all those who have recently escaped this evil cult i just want to send a message of hope.. i have just had my landlord around.

  one of the first things the landlord said to me.

  "in just a year i see such a big positive difference in you" .

  Congrats on your success. Many of us are reporting similar results.
  I've lost 75 pounds and have much better organized my home and belongings.

  I have an endless line up of projects and interests as well.
  It's amazing how much time we have when the end isn't coming tomorrow...

  Life is better on the outside.
  Don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

  Why do people kill each other?

  why do there have to be wars?

  why is there so much hatred?.

  the collective answer i came up with is natalisam, or maybe the correct word should be politics?

  Root cause of war and violence?

  Satan!
  Ba dah bump, cshhh!!

  Actually, it's common greed and desire for power, propped up by wealth. You really never see armies , countries or thugs running armed men that have no CASH.

  a number of years ago when i was still active, our service group was having a coffee break with the visiting circuit overseer.

  during the conversation he mentioned that the "society" was now being run like a business.

  being raised in the "truth" i thought that rather odd (and my eyes began to be opened!

  Any funny stories of when a"brother" giving a talk, said something "funny" or "questionable", and didn't even realize it?

  by Dunedain in

  there were always all types of speakers in the org.

  myself, growing up a "witness", must have heard all types of talks, and given by all manner of speakers, especially on sundays, when almost every week we would get a "visiting" brother giving the public talk.. sometimes, you would have a "great" speaker, all fluent and animated.

  other times we would get a comical speaker, one who would maybe purposelly get a few laughs outta the audience.

  i've been df'd for about six weeks now.no one has broken the obligation to "honor the disfellowshipping decree".that's the way notorious co paul kohler describes the "loving arrangement" that is jw shunning.

  ( just "serving" napa ).

  so, my wife's family has been "loving me" ( barf ) when out of nowhere, one of them sends home homemade soup for me.... well, i got super pissed.

  I agree and disagree with all of the comments...

  It was mixed signals coming from a 70 year old born-in.
  The confusion must be baffling for her.

  "Why would he leave Jehovah and all of us?"
  "What is it that is more valuable than everlasting life?"

  On the other hand, the very last thing I ever said to her was regarding the 1947 article on the pagan origins of shunning and the 1953 article implementing it as the "loving arrangement that it is".

  ( I highly doubt she is waking up, but she must have raging doubts as she lived through 1975 )

  As a Matter of Conscience, I Am Resigning from the Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses

  after listening to the hearings of the australian royal commission into institutional responses to child sexual abuse, i am no longer content to have simply walked away from the organization.

  as a matter of conscience, i do not want my name linked with the organization in any way.

  i know this letter has been posted previously, and i thank the author.
