What comforts you when you no longer believe in a ressurrection ?
by EdenOne inour family just lost someone dear and very close, a faithful jw.
as we went through the entire funeral services and meeting long time brothers and sisters, who in general have been very kind and warm towards us, we realize that the hope of resurrection is a meaningless utopia for us, like a fairytale for little children.
we don't have faith in it anymore, and serves us of no comfort.

there are a couple of things that helped me, although I never really felt comfort from the idea, i guess 1 part doubt and 1 part I didn't believe I'd be good enough to make it through the big A.
You need to fully accept the idea its not going to happen, that this is all there is, we are conditioned to feel this is a morbid idea, but it really isn't. Once you break through and believe that, you get a feeling of peace with the idea. And you start living. You realize life is amazing, and your time is precious, the ones around you are special and you take everything for much more of what it is. It gives you so much more to "live" for.
Also you need to drop the idea of looking for comfort from an idea/answer... religion has conditioned us that there is 100% answer to everything and there just isn't. You need to get a zen like mentality that you are not in control, and you can't know all the answers so stop worrying and start living. Come to terms with this is it, and no one knows what happens when you die. Maybe you just cease to exist except in memories and legacy, or maybe you wake up from a dream in another reality, or maybe on a paradise earth, no one knows and we can't and wont know so just wait until you get there. It's hard to explain the enlightenment and peace you feel when you live this way, most witnesses will think it is trivial shallow existence because thats what we were taught, when its the contrary. You don't know what life is until you see its value this way.

Joseph and Potiphar's wife
by StarTrekAngel inwhat are the real reasons joseph refused to sleep with potiphar's wife?.
the watchtower and others teach that joseph refused to commit adultery.
specifically to the jws, we teach that joseph, somehow, knew that adultery was wrong, despite not having any specific rule or writing to teach him so.

He probably didn't want to bang his friends girl because he was a good guy, it wasn't the law against adultery, it was the law of Bros before Ho's! -

sadly the travesty the is happening to children of other religions in other parts of the world makes these stories fly under the radar. And hollywood making movies about these "stories" I don't think it impresses people as much as us who were raised in this and can see the ins and outs of it. We know how traumatizing this was, others may not feel the gravity of it.

Really??? they said that to you? F%$#k them. I'd say grab a rock then pansy, do gods will big man lol. Then I'd b%$#ch slap the person who said that.
These people with these ideas are everything that is wrong with world. judgmental detachment. They love the idea of an @$$hole god smiting everyone, but would never get their hands dirty. Other people in the world are just the same but they do get there hands dirty. Is one better than the other, I don't think so. The idea is still bad.
So they feel so justified discriminating against women, apostates, homosexuals, and just being huge assholes in general. A real man/woman that is a good person would never entertain such barbaric ideas about their fellow man for having a different opinion or way of life.
I am peaceful person, I love people and animals, but if an elder in this org said to me what they told you ... I would most likely kick his ass.

That is so disturbing. Religions is nothing but bad ideas. Making a joke about god snuffing out all those lives because they were enjoying the life he gave them.
Why were they the only ones in the hall? lol
Nice blue sign on the hall in case any out there haven't caught up yet, the elder bodies can get new light now from caleb and sophia and get on the ball and put up their logo too!
The cartoon of Noah doesn't show kids and puppies drowning. Wheres your balls WTBS??? pussies. wanna be fear mongering zealots? Show it like it is, like ISIS would, or some other nut cases. Really make them afraid if you believe the story is true. show babies floating on the water. Sick F%$#ks.
And when caleb is drawing it at the end, its just a wooden box with some water? total distance from the horror of god committing genocide on his own creation.
I say to the Org, you want to sell this crap horrific fairytale, tell it like is, maybe TM3 should produce this, I am sure he'd love to show the R&F how horrible it would be watching everyone on earth drown.
Makes me sick
