by vitty inwhen you were still in the org, did you ever wonder what the apostates were saying?

Confused Jehovah's Witnesses Still Believe In Watchtower Interpretation
by minimus ini had an interesting conversation with my mom and she glowed about how "wonderful" the public talk was on sunday.
the brother talked about bible prophecy "was" being fulfilled "for the future">>> huh??
the "king of the north" would be exposed just as jehovah's people have been saying in our day!

DID YOU KNOW THIS about the BIBLE?
by Terry inthe oldest manuscripts are not considered the most reliable.. there are no "autograph" texts.
none.. there are no "original" manuscripts.. no two manuscripts agree.. the bible as we know it only came together in the form it now holds because certain men decided it should do so.. neither jesus nor his apostles or disciples carried bibles.. the apostle paul didn't carry a bible and none of his letters were in any of the scrolls considered holy scripture at the time he was preaching and forming christian theology as it is now understood to be.. largely, what the bible is today, is the result of certain men with certain agendas who had the authority to make their project happen.
they also had the power to destroy writings which did not agree with their agenda.

Do JWs give you the creeps?
by sonnyboy ini'm not sure if anyone else has experienced this, but i've recently begun to get the willies when i'm around an active jehovah's witness.
this didn't happen until after i started posting here.. when i stop by my parents' house on a saturday morning and the witnoids show up, i get a sinking feeling in my stomach....a mix between sickness, fear, and anger.
i used to try and put on a happy face and be sociable when they came in, but now i just wave goodbye and as i'm walking out.

What Things Did You Never Really Comprehend As A Witness?
by minimus ini never could clearly explain the "faithful slave's domestics", as the watchtower tries to.
i would quote the publications but i did not believe that the explanation was at all satisfactory......was there anything you just couldn't "get"?
