4/15 WT - WTS Pridefully says they can " Guide " JW's past "Armageddon "
by flipper inthis thread is for everybody and everybody is welcome to comment on it .
however i'm going to direct my thoughts and comments in this initial post to lurking jehovah's witnesses who may read on this board and may be sitting on the fence pondering on whether to stay in the jehovah's witnesses organization.
also to newer members who may have joined the board.. in this latest 4/15 wt in the article , " jehovah knows how to deliver his people " it conveys the thought that only the wt society ( through god's help ) will be guiding any jw's through the alleged " armageddon " considered god's war against the wicked.

college info
by man in black inthis past week i have noticed the witnesses sitting in the student area of the college where i work.. the people sitting there are young, and seemingly full of the haughty, "we are right" mentality.. the school prints a paper and i was considering writing a letter to the editors about how the wtbts discourages people from attending.
college.
i feel that it would make a big impact, since they are sitting there, looking for new members at a college !.

17 stages of Evil
by man in black inmy son recently was reading a book for one of his college classes titled, "why we believe what we believe" written by andrew newberg md.. it seems to be a very balanced book, the material is written from the medical / psychological viewpoint, ( so far i have found no specific religion-bashing here).. i was just skimming through the last few chapters and one subject on page 150 really caught my attention, as i really think it applies to the jw religion,.
i hope you all enjoy reading this :.
seventeen stages of evil.

Are you sure leaving the JW religion has made your life better?. Lurkers think twice
by mankkeli inon this forum, i have carefully read most of the experiences of those who left the jw religion, i have even read experiences that have dated back to 2001, i have read the different circumstances surrounding their exits and what ensued upon leaving.
for the majority, i observed they are better remainning in the religion than leaving.
what benefit is there to strain family relationship because you want to be free?, please tell me, of what value is that freedom?,.

psycho witness lady on facebook
by man in black ini was doing some pointless trolling this evening, looking up the status of several old witness associates that i knew years ago.
i ran across the comment listed below from a lady who attended a neighboring hall, really into the whole "witnesses are always correct" mindset.her brother who is not a witness anymore was the normal person in this conversation.this is almost borderline freddy kruegar material, how can they actually believe that god is behind them ??
?</form> this sister got divorced, she believes that "jah" will see thru her ex-husband's ( who is a witness in good standing) lies and will straighten everything out in time according to what she thinks is correct.
