  Start your own Prince rumour!

  i see the jw rumour mill is going into mad overdrive about prince.

  the stories seem to be more and more unlikely.

  so i thought as a bit of fun how about us here try to make up our own rumours?

  Everyone is Equal in God's Loving Organization

  by new boy in

  2. friends

  they said we are all the same in god’s eyes.

  that everyone is equal.

  to prove this they call everyone “brother and sister.” sadly, this really isn’t the case.

  Very true.

  And it's made me aware of the changes that have occurred in the organization:

  Auxiliary pioneer requirements are now 50 hour (expect for special months where it is 30).

  Regular pioneer requirements are 70 hours.

  Special pioneers for the most part of have given the boot.

  District overseers have been eliminated.

  Not sure if Zone overseers are still around???

  The Gilead school no longer produces missionaries.

  I've been enjoying the show.

  What is interesting is how it shows cult members being normal in their authentic selves. They are not such some sort of "zombie" that the public thinks of. Rather than all good or all bad, they are complicated individuals.

  I find Hawk's story arc most relatable as he tries to balance cult life with school life, trying to be faithful to the cult, distancing himself from non-cult schoolmates, yet falling in love.

  Last week's episode reminded me so much of how the JW cult admonition: "Worldly people may seem nice, but they don't love Jehovah."

  A troubling visit with a satisfying end.

  2. experiences

  so, i've been out for 2 years now.

  just picked up and walked away from the wacky religion that tried to control every part of my life through fear and guilt.

  i've been wondering as the months go by what would happen when an elder finally showed up at my door and pressed the issue as to why i ceased all activity and then tried to reactivate me.

  You are in Japan?

  The cult seems to be in a slow decline there.

  Today the two elders did not appear to declare at prosecutor's citation

  today the two elders who stalked my sister were absent at the prosecutor's citation.

  they were waited for 1 hour, but they did not come.

  this attitude favors their culpability.

  In the mid-80's, I remember learning things in 9th grade earth science that refuted the 7000-year creative day. I'd lots of heated discussions with my father about this.

  Door to Door

  by Drifting Away in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i hear my wife say to me " we are the only religion that does the will of god , and that is to preach door to door, and speak about gods kingdom" and in one sense she is correct, i know there are others that preach door to door, but then someone told me door to door, does not literally mean door to door in modern times.

  i was confused, has anyone ever heard of this before?
