"the Truth". So many changes prove they never had it.
by lurk3r ini often wondered about this when i first started questioning things.. .
any jw that has died in decades past, how are they even eligible for ressurection?
during the time in which they died, they were never taught "the truth", as everything changed.. any jw today, looking forward to armageddon coming tomorrow, isn't being taught "the truth" either, as will be made manifest by more doctrinal change.

Woo whooo!
by lurk3r inkinda crazy, but finally being able to get on here almost makes me feel like i have just been released from prison.
i have had the privledge of doing nothing but read so many of your posts(for a solid 7 months i bet)...and i really wanted to say thank you, to the ones here who wear your hearts on your sleeves.. first off, i would like to thank the warden for making all of this possible (kidding simon...thanks for keeping this board going).
secondly, every single one of you regular posters here have been a great source of encouragment...looking at the many posts you have have contributed to the site really shows what dedication actually means.

What did you dream about doing in the "New System"?
by lurk3r inlife in the new system, did you give it much thought?
sure, we would be brought to perfection, and there would be a resurrection, but how about other things?.
in my years growing up and living as a jw, i never really thought about it that much.

If You believe that Jesus is God....
by lurk3r ini know that everyone here is an individual with their own thoughts and beliefs,and i'm not starting this thread to debate whether or not jesus is god or not...but i am kinda curious about this.
thank you in advance for taking the time to consider this with/for me.. jesus christ instructed people on how to pray.
with the opening line of the lord's prayer he said (something to this effect) "our father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name" (hope i got that right).

How did/do you break the "thinking" chain?
by lurk3r inone thing about being an active jdub is that you are never encouraged to actually think.
sure you think your thinking, but once your out, and start asking some questions that you never even considered before, it becomes apparent that you weren't.
it becomes clear that we were indeed "conditioned".. decades of sitting in a chair listening to the same thing, over and over again.
