Long Time Visitor New Member
by LogansRun injust wanted to say hello, i have been visiting this site for a very long time and i feel like i know so many of you already, now you can get to know me but for now i'm fading so i cant give my complete story.
i'm single but have "hardcore" siblings in the religion, thankfully i do have family who never expressed interest in the jws.
i really checked out years ago from to much mental abuse and no recognition for all that i gave to this organization.

I conclude evolution is guided
by KateWild inyour qualifications are way above mine so i'd love to hear more about the specifics of what you have researched and how that supports the existence of a deity.
k99, i am not really convinced that you're interested in my conclusions.
in nature amino acids formed to then form dna.

shame when abuse and insults start in the thread which held some excellent contributions, Cofty is the last person I'd class as narrow minded FFS, his explanations and easy well thought coverage of this subject over the years have opened the "narrow minds" poor form and I expected better from you, dislikes from me and deservedly so.

" you will never grow old..."
by mrquik in" you will never grow old..." a more grievous lie is hard to imagine.
i heard this one first in 1957. i was 6. my mother had just converted.
i heard it many times after that.

I could handle the prospect of hitting high school I was 13 in 1979 but the prospect of leaving school and going into the workplace was utterly preposterous, then I was sucked into the end coming by the end of the millennium, the "promises" to be fulfilled by the end of the 20th century, of course the promises were all lies and bullshit, 1986 was The International Year of Peace, nothing happened the millennium celebrations came and went, I was out by 1993, my waking up had started and my research showed me they have plenty of form in regards to failed "end times." Its now 2016, over half way through the year, the worlds population is over 7.3 billion, and their membership is dwindling and even more and more of the billions alive on the earth dont have any idea about their stewardship of preaching the global message of the kingdom, pathetic.

JW Cart Witnessing = ONE BIG JOKE
by Black Man inwas talking to a good buddy of mine a couple days ago (we pioneered and were in bethel together and have both left the cult a few years ago), about the current cart and d. and the consensus was that it is now a complete joke.
was watching a couple witnesses last week sit at a table with their literature display.
no approaching people for conversation, no initiating stimulating dialogue with passerbys, as was encouraged when i "pioneered" back in the day.

an utter pointless waste of everyone's time, the R&F know it, the old adage about it "keeping them busy" is a myth and fallacy now, its sheer pointlessness and stupidity is really beyond any sense and logic, its days are numbered.

Building an Ark
by Coded Logic in"make for yourself an ark from resinous wood.
you will make compartments in the ark and cover it with tar inside and outside.
" - genesis 6:14. because, you know, that's how you build a giant boat - just wood and tar.

Bunker Video: Why No Concluding Scene?
by Wild_Thing ini was wondering why they ended the "bunker video" as they did ... with an armed militia finding the jws huddled in the corner of the basement ... fade to black.
the jws watching don't know what happened after that.
did they kill them?

there clearly was an end, it was merely a part of a set, the outcome came with Elder Brown, Elaine and co in the new world eating fresh fruit on the paradisaical settings, devoid of the billions of dead though, thats the end, like a fairy story but even more far fetched. The irony was though especially with our lot is that it left a far more deep reaching thought that they never would have envisaged, Kevin!
