I can't wait for the GB direction where everyone sells their earthly possessions & gives all the cash to them. With that stockpile, they could wait out another century.

They'll be dropping the literal number doctrine fairly soon I imagine. This will be bought by the rank & file without batting an eyelash. I stopped into a coffee shop on Saturday morning to see old "friends" warming up from field service while trying not to look at me. Now I just smile back & enjoy life. I had a close friend of 40 yrs. die & no one could be bothered to let me know. So here's a quick note to an old friend. John- sorry to hear of your death. I remember your humor & humility. I pass under a bridge on the NYS Thruway every morning & imagine all who have gone before me on the bridge looking down. I'll add you as well. See you again somewhere....sometime. TAG.

Any actual Witnesses here?
by trthskr ini found this site hoping to read topics submitted by jw's so i could learn more, but it just seems to be everyone else here except them.
just about every topic and member is just bashing jw's and their teachings.
this site should be renamed "jwbashertrolls.net".

Well truth seeker; if it was the truth you were so fervently looking for, I hope our little band of JW's, ex-JW's and other members have been of service. Happy to show you the truth. Not quite the response you were looking for?

Review of Examining the Scriptures Daily 2012 absurdities
by jwfacts ini just endured the painful process of trudging through the 2012 examining the scriptures daily, looking for interesting quotes.
apart from being repetitively boring, it has managed to squeeze most of the watchtower's crazy concepts into a single book.
the comments concentrate on:.

Good Morning Paul;
As usual, your research & insight are right on the money. Here we have a saying " If you can't dazzle them with your brillance, baffle them with your bullsh**t." It's just's so sad to realize how many never question the bullsh**t. Have a great 2012.

Jesus loves American Football
by designs inwhat is your take on players in all sports who feel the need to connect their athleticism with god's will.
tebow of the denver broncos is the latest in a long line of players who either thank jesus or point a finger to heaven when they score a touchdown or slam some guys head into a concussion.. oddly you don't see bowlers doing the same praise jesus dance for knocking over some pins, i guess its not that exciting to jesus .

I was a true believer until the Bills' season tanked. Must be the dark Satanic forces during the last days have overtaken the King of the North (Buffalo) by the King of the South (Miami). I will be waiting to see truth & justice prevail again. (Just not this season.) That will, of course, signal the coming apocalypse. (Buffalo winning a Superbowl.)

by stillstuckcruz injeez....i if this was about two years ago, i could have put this talk togather lickety split.

God will YET choose Israel ... In light of somethig I just read in another topic
by Bella15 insharing .... god will yet choose israelisaiah 14:1 says, "for the lord will have mercy on jacob, and will yet choose israel, and set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and they shall cleave to the house of jacob.".
many denominations hold to the view that god has forsaken the nation of israel forever.
they feel that because israel crucified their messiah, jesus christ, that god has taken away the promises he made to israel, and has applied those promises to the present day predominantly gentile church.

Thanks Lars; I was concerned about not having sex & drugs in Paradise. You've taken quite a load off. But you failed to address RocknRoll. Can Paradise be perfect without tunes?

Please Post Reasons For Not Believing The Witnesses Have The "Truth" Anymore
by minimus ini see a few want to believe in the watchtower's view of bible prophecy, scriptural understandings and the view that the "anointed remnant" dispense the "spiritual food at the proper time".. how would you refute those views?.

mankkeli; you're a funny guy. I had 50 yrs. in. My father-in-law was of the anointed. He knew Rutherford personally. I served as an elder for 20 yrs. & through both families had numerous private conversations with anointed, DO's. CO's, pioneers, Bethelites, missionaries & the like. Everyone believed they were going to live forever. I watched them, one by one die off. They all would get a good laugh out of your interpretation.
