Who really are the Apostates?
by Honesty inanother discussion board has a thread that discusses the 'faithful and discreet slave' and asks some very probing questions of the jehovah's witnesses who post on that board:.
http://community.beliefnet.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19635.
a couple of days ago, several jehovah's witnesses who had previously posted replies began to post comments that they weren't going to respond to questions presented by the thread's originator because he left jehovah and is an apostate.. other posters who are non-jw have been responding to the jw's and asking them some very disturbing questions regarding paryer and shunning.. it appears to me that the real apostates on that thread are not the former jw's or never have been jw's.. .

Why Can't JWs See That THEY Are Violating The Scriptures By Their Behavior?
by minimus injehovah's witnesses are supposed to be "christian".

Cycles of Armageddon Hysteria
by Jeremy C inwhen i departed the organization in early 2006, i was giving some serious thought as to why jehovahs witnesses were going through a period of heightened expectation of armageddon.
the district convention theme for 2006 was "deliverance at hand", and it was announced by the governing body that a stinging message would be carried out against "false religion" in the fall through a tract campaign.
certainly throughout the organizations history, convention talks and watchtower publications have always used manipulative tactics in urging a sense of urgency; even in times of relative peace.

More thought control / conditioning in the KM
by logic&reason ini was bored last night during the meeting, so i decided to read the question box in the km.. it was about when you should and should not applaud at the meetings.
apparently someone wrote in to see if it was appropriate to applaud after each tms or sm part.
geez these people need to get a grip.. anyway, the gb has been so gracious as to outline when it is ok to clap, and when we should just sit like mindless drones while the spreaker(s) leaves the stage.

Do JWs really believe the end is near?
by keyser soze inor do they merely pay lip service to the idea?
i have no doubt that some of them sincerely believe.
but when i was a kid, growing up in the '80s, i didn't know of a single witness, myself included, who didn't believe the end was close.
