  I definitely agree 100% about being kind and compassionate and helping one another, especially to JWs who are captive to their indoctrination. I detest belligerance, animosity, and condescension as well.

  Of course, because I do not share my parent's views, I have not heard from them in months. It was a subject I didn't even want to bring up with them...I thought I had an "understanding" not to bring it up. If you read the emails I had from my father, you would have seen the belligerence, animosity, and condescension JWs have toward former members. I have not had the stomach yet to share them on this forum.

  But I don't blame my parents...they are doing as they have been indoctrinated to do. I was once in the same place mentally.

  Nerd in the Brain,

  I am hoping my message via your site to you was reasonable. If you stick around and read people's experiences, I think you can understand why some people are very hurt and might lash out, sometimes in ways that are not optimal.

  As a potential convert (from their view), they are going to be extra nice to you. Ask your friend this, "Do you ever count your time when you spend time with me? How many hours do you report?" Hopefully they will be honest, but sometimes a JW will slip into theocratic warfare mode and not give a straight answer.

  question: will husband and wife live together after the resurrection is completed, if both are in harmony with god?.

  answer: the scriptures do not reveal what the relationship of men and women will be after the resurrection is completed.

  the most that we know is that there will be no children born during the last 100 years of the millennium (isa.

  Looking for a certain image

  by magotan in

  hey, i'm looking for a certain image.

  it's one of the more dopey series of images from about five years ago.

  about a "sister" who goes off the rails and she gets counseled and she's dressing all "immodestly" which is really just a streak of color in her hair.

  My first post

  hi, i just joined the board and wanted to present myself.. i'm active, in fact very active in congregation activities serving "where the need is great" in a foreign language congregation somewhere in western europe.

  as a young brother, i'm seen as an example as i'm doing all a good witness should do.. i had doubts years ago but i decided just to ignore them and move to another congregation to preach more.

  that worked for some years but i'm now at the exact same point.

  Welcome, thewalker!

  I know from experience that posting to a forum like this is a brave step. If you haven't already, hopefully you are checking out JWfacts, a site I found to be 100% verifiable. If you can, I encourage you to read Crisis of Conscience.

  The lack of love in the organization is unfortunately nothing new, nor confined to the rank and file, but reaches all the way into the upper echelons. From much contemplation, I believe whatever love I thought there was among 'the friends' was basically fool's gold in the first place.
