Beginning on JWN
by Thunderinus ini left the jws three years ago after having done extensive research through the internet where fortunately one can find an enormous amount of information regarding every aspect of the jws it's simply amazing how many websites there are exposing their real nature.
though in the end i don't blame so much the rank and file members who are themselves naive and ignorant victims, rather i blame those governing this organisation who are constantly and ruthlessly deceiving and holding captive in a spiritual sense their hapless followers.. i had several issues with them:.
the blood ban goes too much against common sense why would it be wrong to accept blood from someone that willing gives it and without any coercion or harm to himself precisely out of good kindness with the intention to save lives as indeed millions of lives were saved in this way.

What made you think?
by greenie ini know this topic has been covered, so feel free to ignore me or point me to another post for your response, but i'm just curious: what made you first think the jws didn't have it all?
what it a slow process or like a lightening strike?.
for me, a non-jw, it was like a lightening strike when i started reading about the blood issue..

I was trying to get re-instated and could'nt understand how they could reject my heartfelt letter of re-instatement. I was not sinning and felt my relationship with God was very strong and it made me question these men that think they control my salvation. I then looked at this site and others and was shocked at the history of the religion! Russell and the Pyramids just floored me and of course I knew the 1914 date was wrong!

Did you ever experience caution or fear at being introduced to a brother with a beard?
by cattails indid you ever experience caution or an uneasy fear when being introduced to a brother with a beard?.
for years everytime i met someone introduced to me as bro so-and-so who might have a beard (and there weren't that many times), my here-comes-trouble radar turned on.. .
i would be very cautious in talking to this brother.

Yeah I had felt caution, I assumed they were spiritually weak. Its amazing how a group of men in Brooklyn can control your mind!

Elder Says My Daughter's Promotion & Job Success From Devil!
by minimus inan elder and his wife paid my mom a friendly shepherding call and they asked how my ex was doing.
she said, "fine, as far as she knows".
then they asked about my daughter and my mother praised her for her hard work and the fact that she won a special award within her company in which she gave a speech for, and then the former bethel elder said, "well, that's how satan the devil gets people, through praise and making people feel that their work is more important than anything else".

I had an elder and his family over for dinner once and showed him the blueprints to a custom home I was building. The very next weekend I had a shepherding call about materialism! Then of course not long after that they came to me asking for money so a poor family in the congregation could get to the assembly!

Gilead teaches that Watchtower Presidents prophetically pointed to!?
by yadda yadda 2 ini read the following on http://governingbodyletters.blogspot.com/search?updated-min=2008-01-01t00%3a00%3a00-08%3a00&updated-max=2009-01-01t00%3a00%3a00-08%3a00&max-results=50.
"it means you are still a babe to the fact that jehovah's witnesses really teach that practically all "faithful" old testament charecters from noah and abraham through elijah and elishah and david to hezekiah are prophetic of the presidents of the watch tower bible and tract society.
the one i refer to the most is as an answer to one of the questions on a gilead test, elijah prophetically pointed to judge rutherford, elisha pointed to n h knorr.

I just posted over there! I had to admonish them for not going to official WTS website and the fact they ask for donations for that site when their money should be put in contribution box's at the KH!
