I hope thats true - I love the idea of the men in black in the white corridors of Bethel bugging the place and placing the buggary!

Has The CIA Infiltrated The Upper Echelon Of The Watchtower Organization??
by frankiespeakin inthe watchtowers call to all congregations for accountants and lawyers especially those familiar with tax laws makes me seriously think they may be in hot water.
since the watchtower organization has been very vocal especially in the past about its anti-government stanse and its df'ing of persons that join the military,or other government jobs, i'm willing to speculate that the united state counter intellignece agency has seen the need to sneak some of its agents inside the wt, for internal security purposes.
also i'm sure that the internal revenue has been keeping a close eye on the gb,, the reason being that they are a huge cash cow, and a dishonest coniving mind control cult.

OMFG I forgot about this...
by Mastodon ini forgot this cooky thing that i wanted to share with y'all.
my mum has a pet dwarf rabbitt...she puts a tie on the rabbitt and takes him door to door and to the bible studies....maybe she's compensating because i left the dubs...it all sounds like she is not playing with a full deck, it's funny and kinda sad at the same time.

brilliant dude! I feel proud to be in association with someone who has such strength of mind via this board. It makes me want to get reinstated again --
---just so I can do it properly and walk away with pride, instead of letting them hang me because I keep giving them the rope!

A comment I heard tonight
by Generic Man intonight i heard one of the most cruel and twisted comments i've ever heard at the platform.
the topic was the apocalypse and whether or not children will be slaughtered.
through one side of his mouth, the po stated that the bible is not clear on the matter, while out the other side he pointed to all those old testament accounts where children were killed.

Am inclined to agree, Bas.
What is the weirdest thing for me now is that I used to buy that whole thing about Jah being such a loving God he would never burn his children - ie "there is no hell" teaching and I didn't spot how ludicrous and contradictory it was to believe that and simultaneously think it was fine for him to pulp innocent billions of others and to look forward to Armageddon!
I look back in shame at my utter guillibility and inability to question this at the time!
My stance now is that I will not worship a God who kills humans because they won't pander to his ego - it really simplifies everything and for once I believe it because its my idea, not because it was planted through 16 years of indoctrination. That feels just so great - I have never been happier in my whole life!

JW's are not Christians
by Witch Hunter ini've noticed on this forum that a fair few ex-jw's still refer to the members of the non-christain cult known as the jehovah's witneses as christians.
im aware that current members may wrongly believe they are in fact christians because the organisation leads them to believe they are serving god.
but for ex-members who are awake to the false teachings of this non-christain organisation, i thought they may be more prudent in their choice of words, and not refer to them as christians.

Jehovah's Witnesses are a non-christian cult because they refute and distort the essential doctrines of Christianity (trinity, diety of christ, holy spirit
Whilst they refute the trinity there has been no distortion over Jesus' diet whilst on earth that I am aware of.

I can't believe that there are still people here, who are treating the bible as anything other than a history book with some didactic fiction thrown in for light relief.
It is sad to think of how many JWs will (my parents included) actually die old, in poverty and disappointed and bitter that billions of humans haven't been slaughtered by Sado-hova in their lifetime and never will. Not as sad as being one of them though!

How is the JW church doing in the UK?
by Qcmbr ini remember about ten years ago that the jws seemed to be growing very fast in the uk - how is it doing now?
-

I think there is a decline in English speaking congregations and a growth in foreign speaking congregations. My entire family have learnt Spanish in order to study with Spaniards in the Uk and attend a spanish speaking congregation. I also heard that they were learning Portugese so they could serve in Portugese speaking congregations. Basically happy educated career oriented westerners do not want to know this good news - but foreign families over here to work find new friends in the JWs and are drawn in this way.
Are there any figures available as to number of JW population in the UK that is foreignb language - I'd be very interested to know the percentage. Also do they still publish Dfing figures as if anyone has a yearbook or the relevanty watchtower I'd like to see what the DFing firgures over the last 14 years display - especially as I am in those figures 3 times!

Witness Sister Alone At Our Door on Sunday ..No knock ..Just Silence
by adelmaal init was pretty odd.
we had a jw sister come to our door on sunday by herself.
she walked up really slowly and quietly.

I can also confirm this is not a weird phenomenon. I have never had the witnesses actually call at my house, but a few months ago two sisters were working our street. I didn;t see them, but my boyfriend did and they were standing at doors for ten minutes or more when there was clearly no one there. When they got to our house where my boyfriend was washing the car they stood at the end of the drive. Does anyone know if they have DFed people marked on the back of the maps or something? Don't they have to knock anyway to reach other people in the house?
Anyway i doubt they'll be back to visit as even if they had decided to witness to him he headed them off by telling them that they were sick and twisted amongst other things - I wish I'd heard first hand or had a chance to talk to them myself!

Ignored one - maybe its just me that gets offered smack! hehe! However there was a documentary by that irish cowardy chappy called Donald McIntyre and he got offered drugs too and had his phone nicked. It might depend what time you are there - I've never been in daylight. Last time I was there was to see Faithless...brilliant!
