Baptism Candidates
by FadingAway inat dcs, sads, or cas, do they know beforehand how many baptismal candidates there will be?
i recall on another thread where the brother gving the baptism talk ask them to stand and no one stood up.
could anyone then go and sit in the front row and go through with baptism without having to answer the questions or even have studied?.

Thank you all for your help
by brainfcked inwell, i've been lurking here for a while and decided that today i would introduce myself.
i was raised as a jw from the time i was 5 years old.
i am now 46 and was df'd in 1976 or 1977 i can't remember.

Welcome...thanks for introducing yourself. I was the same way. I didn't know WHY I could not go back, even if it meant my death. That was the way I lived for 7 years.....and I was self-destructive too. Then I felt the need to really figure out if the JW's are right...and it took about a week to realise how much of a cult they are....and then many months up till now to sort things out in my head.
You are in good company!! We know how you feel!

Will the WTS. disolve and fade a way in time... ( Your perspective )
by thetrueone inhi, just wanted to know your thoughts on what you think the future holds for the wts.
what for an example what do you think they will be writing on the cover of the w & a magazines 50 or 100 hundred years form now ?.
will the age of information and techology finally catch up to them (eg.

I think they have plents of "treasures" not "in heaven" stored up to take care of all the "important" people if something were to happen.....As far as it happening, I hope so.....I know they seem to be shrinking....but some people seem to LIKE being in the cult.

The Day all Jehovah`s Witness`s are put into Concentration Camps!
by OUTLAW inwhen i was a kid,kingdom halls still had windows.thats a while ago..as a kid i was told in the last days,jehovah`s witness`s would be rounded up and be put into concentration camps..i was told,when the government came to take me away and seperate me from my parents,i should wear my warmest coat and boots.as i would have to fend for myself in the concentration camp..i was told never to give up my faith.even if they tied my parents to a stake and was foced to light the fire that would burn them alive.....jehovah`s witness`s are the "happiest people on earth!
".....do you have any happy memorys like mine?...outlaw

What Gary said about "not one thing" coming true really hit a nerve with me....cause it is soooo true. Not ONE thing in all their years have they even GUESSED right! WOW......
And (going with the thread) I used to be in a KH with windows in Jefferson Ohio.....They are still there as far as I know...but they said because of crime...ect. they didn't have windows much now. I always thought that Armeggedon would come during the meeting (since we couldn't see outdoors in most halls)...and we would walk out after and see the paradise. (No, I didn't concider the bodies, destruction, ect.)

cult personality type?
by Mysterious inanother thing that has been intriguing me lately is the idea that cults can help sway people towards a certain personality type more towards a judging personality for example, or becoming more feeling rather than thinking.
i know my meyers-briggs type changed from istj when i was a jw to intj after i left.
i was curious if anyone else was aware of a similar shift in their actual measurable personality traits..maybe putting on the new personality is literal?

I have noticed this on a bit of a different side. It seems to me a-lot of our families in it have a similar bitter, hatefull attitude. It seems that the cult attracts people who are very controling by nature

Can't find husband's bleeding site
by MsMcDucket ini haven't said anything to you all because i feel like many will say here she goes looking for sympathy.
anyway, he had to go in thursday for a cbc.
his hgb was 7.2. so they sent him over to the hospital to get two units as an outpatient.

I am sorry they are not able to find the problem. I find it strange that they won't do more to help untill he is even worse off. That just doesn't make sense to me. I hope you both find out soon.
