I think I did something very "sick" and embarassing
by kristyann inokay... so i am super embarassed once again.
this time what happened is too embarassing to share, i think.
most people would probably tell me i am gross, too, and most of you would probably not even want to hear it so i guess that i am better off not sharing it here.

by hopie inthere are millions world wide leaving their centuries old organized religions, why are ex-jw's joining together to create a fellowship and support system?.

Never trust brothers you don't know!
by 5thGeneration inwell, i broke it to my super devout parents that after this i don't believe there is any reason why i should trust any 'brother' i don't know around my kids.. no way, no how!.
they had to admit this was pretty shocking and enlightening but they still ended up making excuses.
the society will soon have to drop the 'we are better than everyone else' argument for sure.

What is the most objectionable thing you have heard off the platform?
by restrangled ini know many have quoted ridiculous statements from the assemblies etc., i just wonder what irked you most off of the platform in your own kh.. the one that sticks out in my mind was when we had a guest speaker on a sunday for the public talk.
i don't remember the theme but his main point was the starving people in africa did not need food.
he stated they needed spiritual food and would opt for that over a meal because they realize they could eat in the new order and there was no need to send any donations directly.

PreExistence
by Bookey inanother major bible topic that is often misunderstood is the allged preexistence of the messiah.
the messiah's mother, miriam, or mary as the greeks say, would beg to differ about the origin of her son's life.
she would be the first to say (if she were not a pile of bones somewhere in a tomb) that the her son was a human being who she raised on her lap.

Actual Number of the anointed remaining
by core inheard from a sister that a visitor to their cong (from usa) mentioned in passing that at the top at brooklyn they did not think that the reported number of anointed still alive was accurate, rather they believe that only a couple of hundred remain.
they apparently believe this points to the end soon (again) - also if it is true they are not proclaiming it (obviously because the time limit it imposes will be exposed as another failed date).
odd if that is the case as they keep on finding gb members who are not actually very old

How Effective is the Internet at spreading the Good News?
by Nosferatu inhere's a test to see if apostates can spread the good news faster, further, and wider than the jws do.. now, does anyone remember what the good news is?
if you can, please post it in this thread.
then, the thousands of readers on this board will bear witness, and apostates will survive armageddon because they are god's chosen people!.
