What's the point?
by punkofnice ini mean, i don't want to be miserable or anything, but what's the bloody point of it all?.
since i left the watchtower cult, i have come to realise that god cannot possibly exist...and if a god exists...god is indifferent to humankind as the least.. in 100 years time i'll be gone.
kaput.

Some statements of little help,
Imagine if you were never born!
Enjoy what you have now!
It is all vanity, the bible got that right. BUT, its your vanity and you can do what ever the hell you want so long as you do not harm others or prevent them from enjoying their ride on the blue ball we call home. Extra cash or food, surplus of any kind is a bonus. I wish you much surplus! It's the luck of the draw. And don't count your "blessings" cause there ain't no bless-er out there.

What TV shows were forbidden in your JW household?
by Funchback inin the u.s., three's company was not allowed.
it was explained to me that it was an immoral show because a man and women lived together and no one was married.
the sister who gave this observation was a family friend and we were newbies to the religion.. at least i somehow managed to watch the benny hill show undetected..

No war programs, ie: Combat, Rat Patrol, Bewitched etc. You get the idea.

Question jc
by poopie inmy friend is trying to be reinstated his she feels her committee is biased can she have them removed she just wants to talk to her still in family

Sorry, that would have been a matter for an appeal. Now its done and the friend must go through the hoops like everyone else. If they want to avoid the bias they may move so they are in another congregation. Even though the decision to reinstate will be with the original committee they often defer to the new congregation. So that's about all I can say. They could always keep going where they are but if there is bias they might as well go unicorn hunting, same possibility of success. -

Last Man on Earth
by SonoftheTrinity inwhat do you think of this show and is it a good way to discuss end times eschatology topics with my wife?
somehow i imagine the new heaven and new earth being a let down full of flawed characters, especially if they're jws.

I loved how it started. It has its moments. Phil/Tandy has become such a one trick character its starting to lag. It makes me chuckle now and then. It is so silly it just might make it easy to broach the subject since its not realistic and is not threatening to the mind of a JW. -

Saturday Let the Games Begin
by Poztate inthe start of a new memorial season is upon us.
saturday is the day for the start of the invites to look but not touch the bread and wine.
the "observer class" is a belief unique to jehovah's witnesses.. along with the invite to the masses a special effort is being made this year by the elders to invite all the df's, da's and faders.. along with the invite a copy of the rtj will be left with them.. naturally we will still be treated as pariah's if we do attend but it is the thought that counts.. i am of the "fader class" as i don't wish to rock the boat with my wife and extended family.

Do you still believe in God?
by FormerlySandL ini never thought i would admit it, but i don't.
i might superstitiously have some kind of doubt but digging a bit deeper in my heart i really don't believe in god.
as a human i could never just sit and watch people be tortured, live years of abuse, suffer from illness and disabilities and all the other awful things people have to endure day after day without doing something about it.

Hey Acts5v29, the Bible is a collection of books written over 1500 years by 40 different authors. This "theme" you speak of is a construct as they had no collaborative effort in writing these hand picked "books" compiled by power hungry dogmatists in 375 A.D.. This is hardly a foundation for divine inspiration. Seems like you are another weak willed bible thumper in the millennialist/Adventist tradition. So that would be a no for me.
