The JW fall campaign about false religion
by NowImFree ini just wanted to find out if any of you have had strange experiences confronting jw family members about this brochure.
i am asking because there have been two case of child molestation in my family both perpetrated by jw elder's sons and then covered up.
we have also had a suicide in my family - my oldest brother killed himself after been disfellowshiped and shunned for years.

by choosing life inwere you offended by the teaching that jesus is not the mediator of for you, but only the 144,000?

Does Jehovah Listen To Worldly Prayers?
by jayhawk1 indoes jehovah listen to worldly prayers?
when you was a jw, did you think jehovah ever listened to the prayers of the worldly?
aside from those "experiences" of people praying for the true religion only to have a couple out in service knock on their door seconds later, did you believe jehovah listen to other non-jw prayers?.

How do I deal with my hatred?
by nicolaou ini know that thousands of you have gone through the same thing i'm facing but right now it doesn't help.
i know that some of you have faced much worse - losing family through the blood issue or having to deal with abuse and i know that in comparison my problems may seem not so severe but as bad as it sounds knowing all that just doesn't matter right now.. it started yesterday and there's no stopping it, the official shunning.
one member of the family right now will see the month end with me losing my sisters, brother and my mum.. i love them and i know that in a sense they are victims too but i just cannot reach them.

THE BACK PEDDLING HAS ALREADY BEGUN......
by Mary inas i mentioned before in another thread, my dub aunt, along with several other witnesses, told me that they were specifically told that the governing body let it be known that tract work would trigger the beginning of the end by infuriating the other religions and somehow causing the governments to "turn on babylon the great".
this was supposed to start before the end of this year.
one thing i mentioned is that they were smart enough this time, not to put anything down in writing, but simply let it get around by "word of mouth".
