the other day i had an experience that made me want to seek out more information about the jehovah?s witnesses, and this forum was one of the first things i found on the internet.
i apologize, in advance, if this is not the proper place for this:.
i am posting this as a plea to the jehovah?s witnesses to please stop harassing the general public.
This is a site for ex-Jehovah's Witnesses. The majority of the posters here share your views. You'll want to do some research to find the internet sites for current Jehovah's Witnesses if you want to share your views with them. Someone here will probably provide links for you. Not that your expressions will matter much to them, but good luck with it!
i have a friend she is disfellowshipped.
she suffers from depression.
she wants to go back.
I think *and hope* for her sake she should examine the sick religious tenets that would advocate such behavior in the first place. Buy her the book "Crisis of Conscience" and encourage her to find her way out of this abusive cult.
ohhkay, .
you ever hear someone use a word or phrase that?s out of context but sounds like they word or phrase they intended?
for all intensive purposes = (correctly) for all intents and purposes .
Just today, I read in a post ... inherit for inherent. I see a lot of misused words and phrases here, but god forbid you point them out. People get really incensed about that.
How about the latest fad filler phrase "at the end of the day"? sick of that one, too...
up until this evening i had thought teresa schiavo was in an unconcious state, lying on a bed with just a machine keeping her alive.
how wrong was i?
i saw her smiling and showing awareness of her surroundings.
Coffee:
The article I posted wasn't intended to represent exhaustive research. Frankly, I don't see any other posters on this topic presenting articles or links from EVERY source available, to the contrary they post that which represents the view they espouse. This is exactly what I did. It is not my desire nor responsibility to present evidence disputing what the courts have already found as sound, credible, and admissible evidence. As far as accusing me of intellectual dishonesty -- that displays the arrogance of attitude that you attempt to accuse me of -- watchtowerism at its finest. Outside of this one topic, I've never had the dubious honor of discussing any subject with you. Seems you have fallen victim to your own claim:
Personally, I like to learn as much as possible about any given subject before even expressing my opinion.
It takes a lot of balls to come off with statements you have associated with me or my opinion. But then, I guess when one considers themselves intellectually superior, it doesn't take much to form an opinion ... or present it as fact.

Here's a quote from Jackson published today on cnn.com:
In an interview with the radio program "Keep Hope Alive with the Rev. Jesse Jackson", Michael Jackson said, "I gain strength from God. I believe in Jehovah, God, very much. And I gain strength from the fact that I know that I am innocent.
creepy. bet the jehobo's are backing away from this one. lol.

Yiz: youz funny....
NL2: Over 20 courts have reviewed the evidence .... Unless you are operating extremely undercover, I doubt you've been privy to all *or any* of those activities. I believe all appropriately involved parties have had their day(s) in court. All judgements have been in favor of Mr. Schiavo. As I have said on previous threads, I don't buy the fact that they are all conspiring against Ms. Schiavo. The laws of our land have been upheld. Arguing snippets of evidence and the late breaking accusations by all the wackos that have recently surfaced won't change anything. Nor will all of your cut and pastes.
Edited to add:
Don't know why I bother, but here's a link to a USAToday Report on Schiavo's bulimia. Careful, Yiz I guess it is from one of those liberal rags... have fun ripping it to shreds fellas

My dear FF: here's a few things I call sick:
My best friend while growing up as a JW admitted to himself he was gay. From the age of 16 he was shunned by his family and religious associates. Upon coming of age he was asked to leave the household. This was a young man who lived an extremely sheltered life the entire time growing up. He was forced to scrape and rely upon stranges, some of whom eventually took gross advantage of him. While he was dying an early and ugly death, no family arrived to be by his side. When the funeral came, he was castigated from the elder delivering the message (ah yes, then he was welcomed back to the Kingdom Hall), and placed up before all as an example of what resulted from his wicked ways.
Here's another. My alcoholic wife-beating stepdaughter molesting stepfather was a Ministerial Servant in the harmless organization you mention. While they were aware of all of his aforementioned habits, the one that eventually resulted in his *disassociation* (hahahahaaaaa-not shunning) was cigarette smoking! Once he went a few months without, he too was welcomed back in. No mention or action for his continue drinking, wife beating and fooling around with his young stepdaughter.
Let's see. How about the people on this board who have loved ones who DIED from their harmless ways -- that's right, that pesky little no blood transfusions, even if you're a kid, rule. hmmmmmmmmmm.
How about the tens of thousands (certainly a very low number) of individuals who have been cut off from family and friends permanently because they are unable to continue to accept their harmless philosophies???
Hey Freddy, I bet you can guess what I think you should do with your self-righteous attitude. The only saving grace I can see is you are 17 and still brainwashed by the cult you belong to.
