  Demonic Possession

  by Nihilistic Journey in

  i am looking for articles that i recall reading from the magazines.

  i recall getting the magazines through subscription so it must have been in the 1980's.

  they were "biographies" from sisters that dealt with demonic possession and attacks.

  Has anyone here joined a different church after ditching the JWs?

  by NikL in

  i am just curious.. i have a cousin who is a baptist and his church streams their sunday services and i've been checking them out before i go to meeting with my jw wife.. i haven’t been to a church except for the occasional funeral and wedding and the only sermons i had heard were the tel-evangelist type.

  anyway, all the church bashing by jws over the years made me unsure what to expect and i was pleasantly surprised.

  they do use the bible and they don't spend the whole time begging for money.

  with all the rules that we had to live under to be a good christian it's a wonder that we aren't all neurotic basket cases like i am!

  let's compile a list of transgressions and rules that we had to live by.

  GRACE? GRACE? What the F*** is GRACE? Jehovah's Witnesses have no idea!

  by TerryWalstrom in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i think all of us ex-j-dubs have had the --i'll call it a privilege--to exchange views with others who think differently than we do.

  we encounter "christians" from mainstream churches.our dialogue is sort of...like speaking to martians.sooner or later, an ex-dub smacks into a wall.

  that wall is a subject which is never spoken about or taught by the gb or watchtower with any candor.

  london: routledge.. one of the most dynamic religious groups in terms of disseminating its beliefs is the jehovah’s witnesses.

  Taking up a Cause

  by OnTheWayOut in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so recently, my jw wife asks me if i ever considered taking up a cause.it was a question out of the blue, coming off of a discussion about politics.

  so while it was unsaid, she was really getting at whether i was considering being politically active in some way.. i already have a standard answer that i have used before with other people, so i said it.

  "no, i will be content to work and get by then retire and sit in the sun with a good book and a cold water.
