  When Did You First Get Exposed To "Apostate" Info? How Did It Affect You?

  by minimus in

  as a kid, i used to read all the watchtowers of the 40s and 50s to see how the present day information developed from its original "thought".

  i was exposed to many eye opening statements but i swept them under the carpet (although it stayed in the recesses of my brain) until the time was right.. so for me, it was a gradual thing.. how were you affected by your first encounters with "apostate" material?

  15 to 20 years ago when I used to take my wife and daughter to the library, I would browse the religion section and look for anything about JW's to see what was being said. At that time, I had some doubts and was many times unhappy with the hypocrisy and lack of love at the KH.

  A month after my wife died in 1996, I bought my first computer and after finding soooooooo much about JW's, I really got pissed. Then I ordered COC and In Search of Christian Freedom. I stumbled on to JWD about 2003 or 2004. The rest is history and now I'm free and happy.

  Besides John,

  Who appointed you to say I'm not welcome?

  You're such a little man! I wish I could meet you face to face.

  John,

  This thread started out about BRC. I can't help it if idiots changed or hacked the original intent.

  John,

  Let's give it time. If I am wrong......and I have been wrong many times........and tasted my own foot on JWD/JWN (because I speak without putting my brain in gear sometimes)......and I've changed my way of thinking on many issues because of listening to those more informed than myself..........I will by you a steak dinner and all you can drink.

  I'm not blasting any talent she may have......only her parent's allowing someone as young as she to have so much "sexual" controversy that the paparazzi and tabloids report on. It's as if the parents will allow her to be a child whore for the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ that will come in to the family coffers since Dad has no talent to make any $$$ these days except from aging hormonal women who swooned over "Achy Breaky Hart" If you look at the history of BRC.....his MOMMA was the bitch of all that made it happen.

  Billy Ray Cirus is a no talent piece of $hite and nothing more than a pimp sacrificing his young daughter to gain money for himself. By doing this, his daughter......under the guise of being a "role model"??? for young girls.....is nothing more than a whore.

  Billy Ray will have money...........Miley will have money............. but see if I am right or wrong.........there will be an estrangement between father and daughter just like so many other so-called child stars whose parents forgot about love and saw only dollar signs. . What should be parental and child love......will be financial bickering and worse.

  Tobacco use while in uniform should be prohibited, Oh brother!

  "any tobacco use while in uniform should be prohibited," what a bunch of bull crap, can you imagine being on the beaches of normandy in world war 2 with bullets flying and your hunched down in a bloodied caldron trying to stay alive, and you pull out a smoke, and your sergeant says to you: better not private!

  I know and admit that smoking is bad. But WTF?

  When I first heard about this I was pissed to say the least. Those men and women who are putting their life on the line for our freedom are under enough stress. If they want to smoke......they should be able to smoke. What are they supposed to do when a roadside bomb goes off? Get in the lotus position and chant? PURE BS.

  In more peaceful areas, they should still be allowed to smoke in whatever designated areas are available.....even when in uniform

  When I was in the Army 1966-1968 we always took smoke breaks. It was a given! Then we "field stripped" the butt. There was no smoking at night while any platoon was doing a "Charlie" patrol though. In that pure blackness, a flicker of light could be seen for a long way.

  I wonder who the asshole is who came up with this idea?

  My Assignment For Ray Franz

  by sacolton in

  today i met the widow of ed dunlap, who was of the watchtower writing committee and a great thinker.

  he found that the watchtower was not in harmony with the scriptures, so they disfellowshipped him.

  when ray franz was disfellowshipped, it was ed who took him in and gave ray a job and a place to stay.

  This is a wonderful thread. Wouldn't it be nice if thousands of cards could be send to her. I like purplesofas idea.

  Hmmm.......and if each card had a little $ in it, it could sure help out.
