  JWs' love to brag about preaching but.....

  by pleaseresearch in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  if what they are preaching about is untrue and false, does it really count?

  i mean over the 100 years plus we have been going, how much of what we taught was absolute crap.

  how many things taught about never came true.

  I pioneered for 9 years and all of it is old light now. So it was all bullshit. I am disgusted with myself. I could have had a family.

  Model Jw family?

  i would like to get the opinion of those on this community.

  does serving as an elder make one a bad family man.

  with all the demands placed on those serving... how can one make time for family life?

  The self righteous PO (back then) did all the parts on "family study" etc. His late teenage son was ordering porn at a disabled brother's house and smoking weed as he was bedridden. The mother was cheating on the husband. Ended up divorced and the son was DF'd. He was probably the smartest of the lot. The oldest son's wife cheated on him when he was all growed up and an elder too. lol. Everyone worshiped these people as the ideal. Sad really. I knew they were full of crap and thus was very unpopular with them.

  I think its Abraham. He sort of smarted off to Negan or at least gave him a challenging look just before the big swing.

  our last conversation was him yelling at me because i "loved the gays".

  translation, i pointed out that nobody chooses their sexuality.

  i've been shunned since daing last september, and really for a year or so after visiting my df'ed brother.

  There is no doubt in my mind that your visit brought him some peace. It seems to have done that for you. All the best Dubby.

  Evidently the show will shift next season to Negan's perspective, showing how he arrived at the person he has become. Perhaps Rick's dominance is over and the show can move on in a new direction? If you think about it, killing just one of Rick's crew for the murder of at least 20 is pretty fair. If only he were to kill Jesus, then no one else would have to die! You have to watch the show to understand that reference.

  I loved The Walking Dead but like so many shows that seem to outlive their timelines it has become an exercise of "Catch and release". It never ends, captured and escape etc. This gets old. There's the creep of the season and all his evil disposition to endure. Now its Negan. Ho hum. Never thought I'd say it but I watch it based on habit now.

  I can't take it anymore!

  by BlackWolf in

  my dad was recently made an elder about maybe 6 months ago, and now he is never around he's always at work or doing some kind of jw crap.

  now he conducts the watchtower study and is even doing the special talk tommorow.

  he's become an even more strict controlling jerk than he was before, and i'm never allowed to go out and do anything non jw related because he doesn't have the time.

  Who can come up with the punch line why JW's are not delusional.

  by James Mixon in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  jw seek treatment for mental breakdown.. he tells the physician, my non-jw  family tell me i'm nuts because i preach we are the only true religion (jws).. the doctor said that is strange because i have two patients that checked in yesterday and they .

  each said they belong to the only true religions.

  one is a mormon and the other a muslim.. so the doctor thought i will lock all three up in the same room for the night and see what.
