Studying
by tattoogrl333 ini flat out asked the jw i'm studying with what she would do if someone was disfellowshipped and she was honest and said she wouldn't talk to them since they wouldn't be good examples of jehovah witness.
then we started talking about appearances and tattoos, and about my pink hair :) and she said it didn't matter.
i am enjoying reading and visiting this web site but i am just not seeing the same things you guys have.

This is so SAD!!!!!!!!!!!!
by JT inhttp://www.greatcrowd.com/159ubb/forum22/html/000148.html .
you know it got to be pretty bad when your faith has so many rules you got to carry around a "cheatsheet" just to keep up.
and what do you do if something comes up and it ain't on the list?.

The Last Days in the 14th Century
by JanH inthe last days in the 14th century .
all through recorded history there have been people who have pointed to the calamities, horrors and disasters in the world, and preached that this signified an imminent end of the world.
this isnt even unique to christianity, which started off with strong millennial expectations in the 1st century, and for the most part retains the same expectations almost 2000 years later.

Threat's and intimidation
by Norm indoing research about children slaves i remembered a watchtower article from the early sixties.
it had the title:.
in this article the watchtower society really take the gloves off and give us a glimpse of its real personality, an excellent reflection of the very god they worship.

Most here should find this funny
by Jeremy Bravo inthis is an exact copy of the letter given to me by the guy who was conducting my jw studies.
he gave it to me after i told him i no longer wanted to study with the jw's, in part because of their failed predictions and doctrinal changes.. .
but have not some of the beliefs of jehovahs witnesses undergone adjustments over the years?

by Amazing insome may ask themselves why they post on forums such as this one.
they may wonder what compels them to do so.
you may wonder what causes others to keep at this so frequently.

Hi everyone....
by Jeremy Bravo inas i sit in front of my computer in a drunken stupor wondering what might have been, i felt i had to post my story to those who might truly understand what i am going through.. i am a newbie here, but have been lurking around for the last few weeks.
i am 25 years old, from ontario, and totally heartbroken.. to give you some background, back in 1998, i studied with the witnesses because some friends of mine, whom i believe to be honest and sincere people, gave me (i thought at the time) some good advice to start a book study.
i did, and i really enjoyed it because i felt they presented everything factually and had a strong interpretation of the scriptures (i'm a facts man, you see).

by Englishman ina mexican wave.. cheerleaders.. a streaker.. ice cream / hot dog vendors.. people standing up with their fist raised high saying "yes!".
extra time.. presentation of awards.. autographs.. booing.. the audience waving their lighters as night falls.. there must be more!.
englishman.. ..... fanaticism masquerading beneath a cloak of reasoned logic.
