  I would rather be in the JW cult than the ex-jw cult

  by questioningmyfaith in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have posted one other time on this website.

  just for the mere fact that i wasn't anger and bitter and ready to declare the gb the sociopathic criminals that so many here ascribe to, my initial question digressed to bickering over ad hominem attacks against the gb and not my beliefs that i'm questioning.

  some did give me some help on my questions.

  The JW org is a failed doomsday cult?

  by Half banana in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  by its own mandate in the founding of the watchtower magazine in 1879, it was set up to proclaim the arrival of jc in the heavens according to the then currently failed adventist claim for jesus' return the year 1874.. russell's catalyst for all that came afterwards was his pet claim (in so many words) "aha but jc did in fact come... but came invisibly!

  " he added without sound evidence that it took four years for jc to come to rule from the heavens after his arrival there and that then was said to be in 1878. .

  within forty biblical years from the arrival date, russell promised, with hopes even higher than his bank account, that god’s kingdom with christ at the helm would rule the earth in the absence of all worldly opposition.

  Whatever happened to "YOU'RE WELCOME"? Has "NO PROBLEM" replaced it?

  by Terry in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  wherever i go, i say "thank you" to clerks, servers, delivery people, hosts and hostesses and the response has become invariable: "no problem!".

  have i aged to the point i'm now an old fuddy duddy who doesn't "get it"?.

  is it counted mannerly to avoid, "you're welcome" in favor of "no problem"?.

  My Personal Invitation to the Celebration of the Lord's Evening Meal

  by TMS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  by no means is this a heartwarming "experience" illustrating how an ex-jw skillfully "reached the heart" of a current jw, moving them to re-examine their belief system.

  that won't be my take on my half hour visit with an elder's wife last sunday.

  no one scored points here as is almost always the case in these interactions.. we live at the extreme southern tip of texas, on the u.s.-mexico border in a city of about 200,000. twenty years ago there were 20 spanish language congregations, 2 english.

  I know it's futile to even have this conversation.

  Neither us came remotely close to losing our composure in this fruitless conversation.

  New ways of Witnessing a bit creepy I think

  by Leela1 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so i started a new job and take the train everyday into the downtown core to my office.i have noticed everyday right when you leave the station there is a display case with watchtower pamphlets and magazines for the public to take.

  at first i didnt see the witnesses standing close by monitoring the display case but one day as i looked over a few feet away i saw a man and a woman dressed in their best field service attire chatting away.

  i found this a bit odd as when i was a witness we always went door to door.

  I find it kinda creepy the way the brothers and sisters stand there close enough to where the display is but far enough away so that the public is not aware that they are watching them.

  If in 8yrs of not speaking or seeing each other..

  So the Guy couldn`t be bothered with you for 8 years?

  the ONLY thing you can say to me is not (how are you) or even (are you ok) - but telling me how I need to come back because Ive been out long enough..

  When he does contact you it`s to preach,nothing more..
  

  So thank you for 'worrying'

  He`s not worried about you,he`s counting time..

  If you don`t respond with the right answer..He`s Gone..

  he really did throw in a lil emotional 'hook' and I am the type that just cannot let that slide! I HAVE to respond...but I want to be smart about it, instead of my usual snarky ass self!

  What?!.....After he wrote this?!.....Your a Friggin Jezebel.....LOL!!..

  No matter what you have done Jehovah has the ability to forgive you.

  Now would be the perfect time to be a Smart Ass.....OR.....Just ignore him..
