  i thought i knew you.

  an open letter from barbara anderson to watch towers writing department.

  in 1517, martin luther wrote in a letter to archbishop albert of mainz: you must graciously forgive that i, that scum of the earth, am so bold as to dare to address a letter to you.. yes, i know, you think of me as scum, just like mainz believed of luther, wondering how i dare write you a letter, someone jehovahs witnesses disfellowshipped back in 2002. i was accused of being an unrepentant sinner and condemned for causing divisions, then labeled apostate because i spoke out publicly on nbcs dateline tv program aboutthe child sexual abuse policies that protected pedophiles policies that you helped formulate.

  i just recieved a "care package" from my mother (i'm inactive, haven't been to a meeting in a few months but haven't specifically said to her that i don't want to be a jw anymore) and in it, among other things, are 2 new brochures (one is simplified) called listen to god and live forever.. has anyone else seen these?

  i think you can get them in pdf form on the jw.org website.

  The Watchtower's Delicate Mastery Of Deception

  by metatron in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  you gotta admire the skill manifest in the watchtower's deception skills.

  don't kid yourself, even the gestapo, in internal documents found after the war, found the magazines to be well crafted in the field of propaganda.. the latest deceptions?

  well, there's the nov. awake magazine with its cover asking, "is belief in a creator reasonable".

  by TimothyT in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  today, a sister in my congregation told me that she could never abandon me because i have been disfellowshipped.

  when she told me that she feels such a powerful driving force telling her she cannot leave me, it really made feel very warm and very close to her.

  when i told my dad, he said to me that the force compelling her is the most powerful force in the universe: love!

  Armaggeddon may occur invisibly

  by mankkeli in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  at the end of today's meeting, some over-righteous friends were discussing the various possibilities of armaggeddon occuring invisibly, considering the explanation given within the "parousia" domain on the invisible presence of christ in 1914. they reffered to some articles which i am presently looking through.. .

  while he was sitting upon the mount of olives, the disciples approached him privately, saying: tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your presence [pa?rou?sia, greek] and of the conclusion of the system of things?.

  "in our day, then, what is meant by the biblical expression the presence of our lord jesus christ?
