Guess he's got a problem on his hands.
Be a good JW and tell on his wife...or
Fall into Satan's trap and let this apostasy continue.
Sucks to be him!
I miss nothing about this false religion.
because we have a stinken spy on our hands!
oh, and he wants to let everyone know that he is unbreakable in the truth.

i had a huge light bulb on moment as i wasy in therapy dealing with a nasty anxiety disorder for many years and having a huge trigger in my life finally silenced.
it was almost the last thing that i thought i would end up doing expecially if you asked my wife and myself even a year before our decision to " live " thats how i view it not decision to leave...........it was a decision to live.. .
my therapist psychiatrist asked me who are you?
While preparing a public talk on prophecy, it occurred to me that this religion has not gotten much right at all and uses the "new light" as wiggle room.
Added to that, the cultish following accepts anything without the ability, permission or forum to ask questions.
It is amazing what happens when you really "put these things to the test".
someone who shall remain nameless (*cough*snowbird*cough) mentioned she has never been to a bar.. this shocks me.. i was remembering how terrified i was of going to a bar when i was exiting the mother ship.
i was looking for the lightning bolts to get me.
and it was a big nothing really.
I would pray for holy spirit-then walk in with a handful of literature and speak the "truth" to these worldlings until I was asked to leave. Where else could you get Time @ 11pm?
door to door is an essential way of preaching among jw, you cannot get baptized unles you join in door-to-door service, ..... but how many converts in your congregation in past 20 years came out of door-to-door preaching?
please deduct mentally handicaped and weirdos.. number for your congregation?.
mine could be 2, (mother with a teenage son), but they da shortly after baptism.. albert .
One- and that stupid elder would bring it up in a comment at least once a month!
russell taught that 1914 ce would bring in an unprecedented era of peace.
in 1930, rutherford moved russells date of the parousia from 1874 to 1914. .
thus until 1930 not one follower had recognised the currently ascribed significance in heaven to the time that corresponds to 1914 on our earth.
It is amazing the insight one gets into reality when they limit their research to the "Society's" publications.
When the elders were questioning me concerning my "doubts" the twisted reality they presented through the JW publications was disturbing.
They shuttered when any authoritative statement was presented by secular authorities.
Once the blinders are removed, you can see far more faults than you may have initially thought were there.

an incredible turn around when you see the watchtower index full of demonic handbags, houses, idols etc.
etc.. the new bookstudy book "keep yourselves in god's love.
" p.191 was a shocker for me!
I wish they would stop talking about sex and masturbation. It's promoting these things......
this is insanity!
literally four couples that i know closely & personally have told me in the last two weeks that they are divorcing their spouses.
and there are a couple on here whom i've discovered are separating as well (these two i do not know personally, but i'm a little surprised & saddened regardless).
Might have something to do with the fact JW's are expected to get married if there is a second date
as i went out less and less and less.......i loved the look on the bro at the magazine counter when i said i need three fewer or whatever.....after i did this a few times he said "yeah...several others have had to do the same"......and then i noticed that not only did i bring a huge stack of "back issues" into the hall and place them on the counter when nobody was looking......but there was already a pile there......then i just started trashing them........ahhh.......those were they days...............
Two months ago, I threw a couple hundred mags. and a few books into the fireplace.
My "believing" wife was pissed... and a little scared.
That, my friends, is fun!
i wondered if you could answer this question for me?
you seem to be fine with the fact that they are false prophets, that they have changed the bible and that they have entered into an agreement to "uphold the aims of the un".. what is the deal breaker for you?.
i suspect that there isn't one, and that is not a reasonable position.. please tell me there is something they could do that would make you question their legitamacy?.
Reniaa,
Stop claiming to be a JW.
If you were a real JW you would not be here. I don't care for that religion, but at least I and other posters on this site don't make a mockery of it by claiming one thing (it's the truth) and living another (associating with apostates on this site)
Think I am wrong? Ask your elders.
So you can either leave or continue to prove yourself a fake!
