Recording of doorstop meeting with JWs

by MrMonroe in

i was alerted to the presence of jws in my street, so i grabbed my voice recorder and placed it by the front door.

several minutes later there was a knock, i pressed "record" and opened the door to two jw women.

the recording below runs for 25 minutes.

their bare based lies was quite breathtaking, what a pair of shits.

Have You Been "Sent to Coventry"?

greetings, fellow posters:.

if you're from the uk -- or of the pure english expression in another kingdom -- you have probably heard this expression.

i learned it from an elderly english chap.

yes, my whole life was, even as a ADHD kid, I learnt to deal with shunning and cutting off from a very young age

Any regrets whilst you were in the Org

by Tallon in

the biggest regret i have is of 'shunning' persons who were disfellowshipped and for 'marking' ones deemed as bad association.. there's no way i can approach these people to ask them for forgiveness as i've emigrated to another country however, by this post i'd like it to be known..

yes the usual gripes about my childhood,education etc, the biggest though was marrying my jw wife, five years of total torment in which I hit rock bottom, it was toxic,abusive (violent and mental) half a decade of pure torture, there was a closely kept family secret that she was very close to leaving me standing "at the alter" god I wished she had,it was over 20 years ago and I've just got over it although the scars still remain.

One of the best vid's I've ever seen for debunking and disproving Jehovah's Witnesses

by StoneWall in

as some of you know i'm not a religious person at all after leaving the jw's but there was a link on another site i was on and the link was to a pastor's vid.

(about exposing jw's as false prophets etc)being that i'm not at all interested in hearing a sermon, i was going to just leave the site and continue researching some other stuff but then curiosity made me wonder if he truly knew anything about jw's or was just going to be another religious leader downing jw's in an effort to make his version of the "gospel" sound more appealing.i have to admit i was pleasantly surprised at the extent of his knowledge of scripture that jw's like to use as well as the history behind the organization.

many of the points he brought out we've covered here before and he arranged them in an easy to understand and follow sequence.i'd be interested in hearing what some of you think on the job he did on exposing the jw's(wt)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3o56jwgbjk.

what is the theme of the vid?, I'm not going to waste an hour

Why ex-JW's so knowledgeable when it comes to the Bible?

by James Mixon in

over the years here on this site i have found over half of the folks can hold their own with any minister.. why when we leave the borg we become proficient on any subject on the bible.. why did we go down that road?

my intention was to get close to jehovah (searching the bible), but i. guess i found lucifer.

i'am ask all the time, how did you go from a true believer to calling the bible a book.

jookbeard

exjw's and members of former cults are the very worst people for theists and cult members to encounter, years of indoctrination produces anther form of indoctrination in refuting the beliefs they so much embraced before.

Convicted Child Rapist Proselytizing. Is the Community Aware? Is the Community Safe?

by freemindfade in

wow, this is awesome.

this really shows the jw passiveness towards child sex abusers.

there needs to be more of this exposing this!.

I've just spoken to an elder on the service dept at the London bethel to lodge my disgust and amazement about this PoS, he took his name down and said he would make some enquiries

JW broadcasting and doubts

by Colinconfused in

hi everyone to cut a long story short, ive been away from the meetings for over 10 years.

i recently reconnected with the congregation and started a study.

cant get my head around all the changes and jw broadcasting.

jookbeard

walk away from the stupid study Colin, they are still has hard line as ever, shunning continues, their deception and lies continue, its same shit just a different decade, you wont gain anything whatsoever keeping this study going, and a warm welcome BTW, there is a mountain of info on this forum far more then you could ever gain from a study or a KH.

Weekend visit from JWs.

by redvip2000 in

had a visit from the jws this week.

i've lived in this house since 2012 and this is the first time, they have reached me at home - quite the urgent work.. anyway, i was home on saturday morning and around 10am, there was a knock.

i had a feeling it would be them.

jookbeard

a good bit of anti-witnessing, the subject matter may have been slightly too deep for the hard nosed elderly woman but never give up a chance and I never do, the UN membership/ARC/doomsday predictions that have failed does really wake them up, their haemorrhaging membership continues to confirm this.
