Why some stays inside the JW
by beroea ini was posting a little on the old h2o but have taking a break before going to this new room only watching for a while.
im still an active jw and elder here in europe - a long way from you in the usa and also another culture even inside the jw.
i think we in europe as jws are thinking a little different from the jws in the u.s. we dont put religious authorities as high as i think you do.

Faith in spite of the WTBTS --- Hillary, et. al.
by LoneWolf into all ---about faith.. i posted this some months ago on another board.
the comments then were thoughtful and appreciated.
i'd like to know yours, too.. a brief background first: i first became active in service in december of 1946, and have been disfellowshipped for over 12 years now, not for gross wrongdoing, but because i asked too many questions and wouldn't quit.

Brooklyn, are you listening?
by OrangeBlossom ini wonder if the gb ever check this board to get a grasp of how the rank & file (the hanger-oners like me) really feel about things or even curious as to why so many have left the organization.
there are many elders and ministerial servants that post here because they are so frustrated with what is going on.
i think that they would really like to see a change, a reform of some sort.

Where do they sit in your hall?
by ns7 inwhat i find bemusing is, if there are any disfellowshipped ones in your hall they have to sit at the back.
now without getting into the merits/rights/wrongs of whether this should be still acceptable, where do they sit in your hall?
you see i seem to remember that they would sit on the back row, come in quietly just after the song and prayer and leave at the end just as quick.

Speaking of Mommy Dearest....
by LovesDubs ini heard the most interesting talk last year at the pa convention (witnesses now for jesus) regarding the roles that jws take...that basically there are three roles in a person's life, authority figure/parent, adult, and child.
the society becomes the authority figure, the jws become the children and the thinking, reasoning adult is suppressed, in fact destroyed.
hence, the jw becomes incapable of processing information or making decisions after awhile.
