I thought Babylon the Great had fallen
by beautifulisfree ini swear the wtbs used to teach that 'babylon the great' had already fallen?
and that 'false religion' was drying up?
is this what the society is 'correcting in their book?

Leaving the meeting early
by beautifulisfree inwhy is it that when ever you would leave the meetings any earlier then when they were all done...did you feel like everyone was watching you or even sometimes guilty?
sometimes, i would leave at 'halftime' (at the second song) either to go to work or just because i was having trouble dealing with the b.s.
and of course everyone was nosey and would ask my elder dad after the meetings where i went as though i was off to commit some horrible crime.

And you thought Mel Gibson was anti-semitic
by beautifulisfree inin 1933 while the rank and file were being persecuted right along side the jews this is what the society said:.
as for the declaration and an accompanying letter sent to adolf hitler personally, they were nothing short of self-serving statements which attempted to ingratiate jehovah's witnesses with the nazis.
under a sub-section entitled "jews," the declaration reads: it is falsely charged by our enemies that we have received financial support for our work from the jews.

Red flags
by beautifulisfree inwhen i was an active witness i never understood why there were 'annointed' women that would be ruling right beside god and helping rule over the whole earth.
but, they were not allowed or good enough to be 'elders' and just rule over a tiny little congregation.
i know now this should have been a red flag for me...but, i just thought oh well this scripture says that men are to be the head of woman.

Ever wonder if an old friend turned apostate?
by beautifulisfree ini often wonder if my old witness friends from my past are still in the 'truth' (god i hope not)?
i know this site is pretty popular amongst ex-witnesses.
and since most of us have 'fake names'...we could be talking to someone that we already know.

my father heard this 'wonderful' poem from the platform in a talk given by the c.o.

Are they just more blind?
by beautifulisfree ini was thinking the other day.
when i was just a plain 'ol publisher i was not 'privileged' to any apostate material or really any behind the scenes of the society.
but, as an elder you get to read alot of da letters that explain peoples findings about the lies the society has told.
