PARADISE EARTH OR HEAVEN? OR BOTH?
by exjw2814 inthe jw's teach about the hope we have for living on a paradise earth.
is that what jesus taught when he came to the earth ?
the last time i checked he was referring to heaven, not earth.

It's a parodox: heaven on earth, IMHO.

New Here....and a Brief Intro
by Yan Bibiyan inafter lurking around here for about a month, i thought it's appropriate to introduce myself to such fine group of people.. i was never a jw.
been married to a baptized mate for over 15 years.
my wife was never technically all in, more of a fader, rarely went to meetings, the occasional memorial, a convention once or twice.

Frankly, I want to buy him a beer, but he’ll probably appreciate more the kiss from you.
Frankly Yan, I think he'd take the .

this oxymoron should have been my first clue to the path of dissonance
I love that Yan, and welcome! I was the active jw wife for 15 years, and like you, my military husband tried like hell to "get" the WTS. He thought maybe the more he studied things would make since. But like you "2+2 was not equaling 4". It was sealed for him when he went thought the Revelation book a couple years ago and couldn't understand how the WTS applied everything written in Revelation to them personally. Then on top of a bad experience with the "brothers", he totally saw what was going on. I'm so glad for him personally that he never decided to join the cult. Since then our whole family has gotten out for different reasons. I love your statement up top because I had to deal with idiot "elders" that were to young and inexperienced to know anything about life. It's absurd.
Never give up with your wife, and NEVER let those people around you without tearing apart their dogma.
Glad your here.

I finally gave up on the toilet seat. Now I embrace the experience of going in the bathroom and softly putting it down with a big smile on my face. I've surrendered.

How I obtained my personal files from Bethel
by jwfacts init has taken me a long time, but i have finally put together an article outlining how i used the law to force bethel to send me my personal files.
it is a very long article full of scans, so i have linked to it at http://jwfacts.com/watchtower/experiences/personal-files-privacy-act-1988.php.
in brief, in 2006 i requested that bethel send me my files on the basis that the australian privacy act 1988 entitles people to receive a copy of any information a corporation holds about them.

Actually this is an excellent idea, we should all do this, for those of us out. This would give the WTS a new headache and a way to get some control back from a very controlled life. I'm going to look into this.

What would Jesus Christ say if he returned today?
by James_Slash inthis was always one of the main justifications for me in leaving the wt behind.
i was just wondering how many of you have ever reasoned in the same way.. i have often wondered how jesus christ would react if he came back to the earth now and how he would view the organisation who claim to represent his standards?.
would jesus really want to be associated with paedophilia, false prophecies, shunning, the destruction of families, lies, untruths, hypocritical leaders and the lack of love amongst members?.
