The New World Translation and Honesty
by Little Bo Peep inafter having researched my beliefs of 45+ years, finding so much was really different than what the bible context really taught, i decided to "read" the bible for for the first time to see what it really was saying, taking off the "blinders" of the wt.
i began reading the greek scriptures first.
i used the new world translation, knowing if we were to ever reach our grown children, i would need to use that translation to prove anything.

I am an official apostate.....nearly.. and I'm loving it!!!!!!
by Gill intoday, whilst shopping, i ran into an old school friend of mine that i had been quite close to.
i used to write her 'sick' notes for her, so as you can imagine, we're friends forever now.. anyway, she tells me that she is studying with jehovah's witnesses again.
i think she expected me to be thrilled with this news.

Thanks!!!
by Low-Key Lysmith inat the risk of soundy mushy, i would just like to thank everyone for being a part of this board and making it what it is.
in the 14 years since i have been out of the b'org, i have pretty much had to deal with building myself back up by myself.
in the short time that i have been a part of jwd, i have realized that there was a lot of things that i had just repressed and locked away.
