Can anyone find any racist comments in WTS publicaions found on the CD?
by Chemical Emotions ini cannot find anything remotely racist, and yet i know that some of their older publications that they do not include on the cd has some racist opinions.
i was wondering if anyone else found anything from newer publications.. i don't want there to be any commentslike that, i'm just curious.
i'm still looking..

Nirvana and Green Day help me get through the little time I have left of having to act like a JW...
by Chemical Emotions ini know it sounds strange, but music not only helped me to realize that the jw world is fugging fugged up, but it helps keep me motivated to fight all urges to "give in" and follow the wts just becuase it's all i've know.
i'm musically talentless but these two bands (and a few others, like death cab) have helped me through some rough stuff.. books- from young adult author john green to kafka to katherine patterson- have helped tremendously also.. my boyfriend has helped most of all.. but i was wondering: what things help those of you still in the org, besides family and friends and other relationships (if those helped at all)?.

Why haven't more JWs noticed the WTS false prophecy?
by Chemical Emotions ini haven't found anything to show that they have, except in the reasoning book, they admit say this:.
"jehovah's witnesses do not claim to be inspired prophets.
they have made mistakes.

Short memorials, boring weddings, no birthdays, etc...just because it places too much emphasis on a person?
by Chemical Emotions indoes that seem fair?
did it ever make you feel kind of...ashamed to be a human?.

For those who do not believe in the Bible: Why don't you?
by Chemical Emotions ini don't believe in the bible either, but i'm just curious as to why others don't.
ridiculous misogyny and mass murder by a petty little god are two reasons for me.

Rape can be fornication myth in the 1990s?
by Chemical Emotions inalthough it was wrong for the wtbts to claim this i the '60s, '70s, and '80s, i'm pretty sure (correct me if i'm wrong) that most "experts" believed it too.
idk.. but did most people believe, especially experts -in the 1990s- that if you don't scream or fight when threatend with rape, you have committed fornication?
the wts did.

Can you give specific examples of the WTBTS taking quotes out of context?

If you have sex with your spouse after you find out he/she cheated on you, you cannot divorce them.
by Chemical Emotions inin the key to family happiness book, the wbts says that if you have sex with your marriage mate after they cheat on you, and you knew it, you cannot divorce them.. i was disgusted by learning that.
i only discovered this recently, but i am very angry.
what if your husand tells you that he'll keep screwing other women if you don't have sex with him?

How many subjects did the WTS flip-flop on?
by Chemical Emotions ini don't just mean changing from one idea to another, once, but actually go back and forth on their teachings.
teach one thing, then change it, then go back to basically the first belief.. .
they seemed to do this with oral/anal sex, as well as women having to scream or fight during rape..
