i could never understand how some who don't follow some of the moral restrictions in the jw faith, are strong against celebrating the .

religious holidays such as christmas, and easter etc.. do you celebrate the holidays knowing some of their origins?.

I have always been fascinated with halloween. I love watching classic monster movies and love the Halloween air. The Pumpkins etc. Candy Corn...So......Since I have been out last november of the TROOTH....I started a collection of Halloween stuff. I am a collector by heart anyways so this fits right in.

If JW's Should Be Accountable For Their Sordid History.....

by AllTimeJeff in

....shouldn't christian religions of all persuasions be accountable as well?.

if this is insulting, it isn't meant to be.

former jw's all the time come here on this forum and others to hold the governing body accountable for teaching lies and holding on to a history, a tradition if you will, that embraces leaders like c t russell and j f rutherford, both of whom taught things that are almost entirely rejected by jw's today.

I am with ya AlltimeJeff....ALL religions are evil! All of them have done attrocious things to mankind.

How many of you were in Dramas at the D.C. ?

by drewcoul in

do you remember what the drama was?

what role did you play?

what is preparation like?

I had just come back from acting school in New York. AADA.. Got to shake hands with Patrick Stewart. I had graduated from the second best acting school in the country and could NOT even get a part on the drama when my congregation had it. Such a crime! But really witnesses do not care. So long as it´s Elder Brownnose...he always gets parts in the dramas.

The Apostates' Handy JW Glossary

by Vanderhoven7 in

perhaps this has been printed here before...but still it gave me a few laughs...so here it is again.. the apostates' handy jw glossary.

by doug checketts.

"anointed" - an experience that, unfortunately, no "anointed" one has ever been able to explain.

Great! I will be reading this more in the future. I do not get the lisp thing though. Was that on a drama tape?

What Turns The Average "Worldly" Person Away From The Witnesses?

by minimus in

is it their door-to-door incessant preaching?

is it their view on blood?

is it that the religion itself is simply often misunderstood?.

I have a religious friend. She changes religions ALOT! But she always thought JW´s do not believe in Jesus. I have told her through the years that they do. She ALWAYS insists during 15 years that they don´t and I have to remind her. She always forgets. It is a built in phobia of them.
