Isn't that the most disgusting evil command!
As an active jw, I had never read all those
horrible words!
I wonder why we never discussed this at the mtgs???
Yeah right. I still have 2 bibles at home....but not for
much longer!
in numbers 31 we read the following:.
jehovah then told moses:2 take vengeance for the israelites on the midianites.
afterward you will be gathered to your people.3 so moses spoke to the people, saying: equip men from among you for battle against midian and to execute jehovahs vengeance on midian.4 you should send 1,000 of each tribe of all the tribes of israel into the army............ 7 they waged war against midian, just as jehovah had commanded moses, and they killed every male.8 along with the others slain, they killed the kings of midian, namely, evi, rekem, zur, hur, and reba, the five kings of midian.

we all know that beth hell monitors this site.. they have repeatedly had sites shut down for quoting large portions of their litterature.
not this one.. do you think this board enables them to keep a finger on the pulse of what is going on in ex and aposto land?

Sorry away from my computer............
in a letter in the 2013 yearbook of jehovah's witnesses, the governing body sign off with the words, "we love you all very much".
these words were later echoed by one of the governing body in an address to french jehovah's witnesses in july this year.
these words sound so marvellously compelling and heartfelt - goosebump inducing, even.. imagine the governing body wrote these words to you or expressed them to you in person- yes to you reading these very words.
Hypocrites! Imposter! Swindler!

i wonder if anyone else has had this experience or know of others who have.
when i was disfellowshipped, i approached another disfellowshipped person after the memorial celebration and asked him over for some refreshments and conversation.
he turned down my invitation saying that the elders had told him that he could not even talk to other disfellowshipped persons unless and until both he and they were reinstated!
Seen all this sort of BS! I am not df'd myself but
got told off by a df sister for smiling & quietly
saying hi to her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*
I have also seen how "worldly" friends & family will
also disappear into the woodwork when an older jw
leaves wt or gets df'd because............. they know
wt will abandon that person .......and they don't want
to 'get stuck' with helping them .......so the exjw is
doubley screwed over & totally alone!

Is it any wonder that people just close their mouth
and just go along with all the crap!

You have guts lady......well done!
today's talk was really somethin'.
so much so that i felt compelled to post this during the wt study.... i didn't pay attention to the theme, but where i to title the talk it would be "logical fallacy, scripture out of context, and phobia indoctrination: a case study in cult indoctrination.".
that's certainly a more honest title than whatever they gave, i'm sure.. it starts out by saying that sometimes people are skeptical about things they're told, and feel compelled to look for evidence of the claims.
Well written post Joe, thank you.
You're right, when you know the speaker
is a great guy & normally logical ..... it is
all the more disturbing to hear garbage
coming out of them.
All that indoctrination just winds them up even
tighter, into a ball of pure BS, that affects
everything in their lives.
Everything now becomes tainted with it!
Ha ha .. looking at life through brown splattered
glasses!
The day those glasses came off my eyes was the
BEST!
You will know when you have reached your
limit.
best wishes

i dont have any specific references, but over the years i remember reading in the mags and hearing in talks stories of imprisoned jws who would somehow get a piece of a page of a jw magazine or an article or something like that and pass it around and get spiritually nourished by it as if it almost had a magical or supernatural nature.
does anybody else remember such?.
i always thought it just didnt make sense.
Oh ya heard that a lot! Maybe it was just
holding on to a bit of "watchtower" spiritual
paper that did the trick! ahahahhahhh

Hi Listener ...thanks for reading it!
Really, so many of us went thru this whole
running & hiding thing before 1975.
Because ww2 was still etched in peoples
minds in the 50's & 60's ....that fear of
confinement in concent ration camps was
palpable ....we could still feel the fear of
what it might be like, maybe ...'gestapo'
putting a bullet thru our heads
for not denying wt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!omg
Sooooo when wt said jump....we jumped.
What a bunch of evil people who could
hound millions of innocents by terrorizing
them for more than a century!
