I was stalked...
by onesong inafter making it clear to everyone that i no longer wanted anything to do with the borg (i haven't been to a meeting in 9 months) .
i moved across town and told no one , not even my family.
within 3 weeks i saw a van slowly driving by with elders in it scoping out my car.

Bible prophecy clearly indicates 1914?
by gringojj ini was reading the nov. 22nd awake "who will feed the cities?".
on page 14 a german brother relates an experience of coming into the wts.
2 witnesses were at his door and asked him "did you know that the year 1914 was a very special year according to the bible?".

It's all been done before...the newbies got me thinking...
by wanderlustguy inthis isn't a negative observation at all, but i've noticed with all the new people here, there are a lot of things i remember being said before being said again.
some of the things i assumed when i first came here, many are doing again...and it's very interesting to watch.
i guess the human race is very cyclical.

Why do the WT call ex-jw's "apostate"? Even if we still love Jehovah,Jesus?
by booker-t ini was wondering the other day when my neighbor(who is an jw elder) called me an "apostate" for refusing to return to jw's.
when i left the wt i never stopped loving jehovah and jesus i just could not stomach the wt society anymore.
there are alot of us ex-jw's who still love jehovah and jesus and still read our bibles.

A brief History of Me...
by Truth.Seeker ini was studying with jehovah's witnesses during my college years.
i found that they somehow was able to make me understand many of the meanings from the bible that i had never understood before.
i had a clearer sight of what it was to walk as a christian.

Penton & the drama this year
by carla inin the book apocalypse delayed by james penton he describes a 'drama' on pg 101-. the greatest emphasis was again placed on the preaching work, and jesus was described as a pioneer.in an assembly drama or 'morality play' on the apostle paul's companion timothy, young persons fresh from high school were strongly discouraged from attending academies of higher learning, and an always laten watch tower animosity towrads university education bacame more evident.. this sounds just like the drama from this summer.
i was under the impression that some jw's thought this was a new drama.
do they just recycle this stuff all the time?

I just want to be a normal person again.
by toby888 ini don't want to be "special".
i don't want to believe stuff i don't belive in anymore.
i'm tired of feeling isolated from humanity.
