Ex-Witnesses in Oregon?
by CatholicGuy ini voluntarily disassociated from the jws in 1980. i was actively involved in ministry to jws and ex-jws for the next 10 years.
the past 10 years or so i've moved on with my life and lost touch with much of what was happening with the watch tower society and ex-witnesses.
of course, growing up in the witnesses leaves its imprint on you.

Reasons why its so hard to break from the WTS
by Leander ini'm still sitting on the fence trying to figure out which direction to go in.
i think one of the reasons i have'nt left yet is because of the fact that i'm not entirely sure that the wts is really not god's organization.. some of the reasons why i feel that way is because of their insight on the scripture.
i've never heard of any other religion attempt to decipher the prophecies in the book of daniel and revelations.

Would a JW go beyond the scriptures?
by ozziepost inaccording to jw media, baptism "symbolizes one's dedication to god".. on this basis, a jw's allegiance and obedience is to god.
thus, the article goes on to state:jehovah's witnesses avoid making rules and regulations beyond those provided in the scriptures.
, and they do not follow traditions that contradict bible teachings.

How Does One Find Another Religion
by pettygrudger inthis is probably a strange question, but how do you "pick" something else to study?
i'm having a hard time just picking up the bible & reading it - but i'm terrified of picking up any "study material" from other organized religions to help.
which bible do i use?

Does anyone here believe the Bible?
by sawthelight inive noticed many posts relating to evolution and i'm just wondering does anyone frequenting this board believe in the bible?
it seems that just because most have bad experiences with the wt that everyone here is an atheist.
i myself was something at least of an agnostic for quite some time after breaking free of the borg, but now i see things in a different light.

BOMBS AND TERROR MANY FACE EVERY DAY!
by JUSTAMOM injust a thought with all the "stuff" going on.. please do not misunderstand my feeling and heartache that our nation is experiencing.
it is truly tragic.
death of anyone anywhere touches me more so from time to time depending on me.. but i just wanted to mention something that hit me this morning that i heard the spirit recall to me.. yes, this event was a tragic instant explosion.. and the fact still remains on who exactly to point the finger at.. we watch the same thing almost daily these days, atrocities happening and mass destruction to our fellowman, some our brothers (or potential) and it is truly like a movie to us (some of us).
