Thoughts of modern day pharasee's and robots
by Aussie Oz ini was just reflecting the other day that the jehovah's wittnesses really have lost the way (if indeed it can be claimed they ever had it).. i was thinking of the burden that was placed on the jews with regard to the hundreds of laws in the ancient days, added to by the pahrasees.
i was taught of course that jc came to do away with all that and replaced them with 2 new ones, love of god and love of neighbour.
that was all we were suposed to need was it not?.

I am seriouly disapointed in the Watchtower society
by Aussie Oz ini can scarcley believe my eyes.
i read in another thread about c. t. russells attitude that his 'studies in the scriptures' is better than the bible and come to the conclusion they are not god abandoned today, god was never there.. fast forward to modern times and they are still at it, likening their body of teachings as being part of the bible.. most of you already know the pasages in their own lit that i refer to, i'm just stating my feelings as i dismantle a 38 year old belief system.. it seems to me, that all along, the belief of the watchtower society is this: our writings are true, they are backed up by the bible.
rather than, the bible is true, backed up by our writings.. disapointed.

Why does the media leave JW alone?
by Aussie Oz inlargly, i found over the years, the media seldom runs stories on jws.
sure there is the odd sensation in a paper about a child not having blood or something or some brief mention.. why has the media not got hold of the child abuse situation?
with the mainstream church's in australia and globally, they had a field day.

Want dialog/transcript of 2009 D/C apology on 1914,25 and 75.
by Aussie Oz indoes anybody have a recording or transcript, anything!
on the wording and even tone of voice used to 'apologize' for these years mis-predictions?.
stuff like this will be invaluable in helping young witnesses realize that they need to look back to last century.

What has happened in the last 10 years since i left? Scandals? Doctrine changes?
by Aussie Oz ini have been out since 1998 and have rarely seen another jw since.
i didn't leave because i found anything wrong, i just didn't want to live the life anymore.
i still defended the witnesses at times.
