Many are not able to see the abundant "proofs" since their eyes have not yet been opened. That many do not believe is not held against them. All will be pleasantly surprised when they awaken from the "long sleep" to find themselves in the midst of those made alive again.
In spite of our numerous shortcomings and our bad choices we are all loved and will all be re-shaped into what we were intended to be. The Training Program includes slightly different paths for the Sheep and the Goats but, thankfully, all will be accommodated and prepared to enjoy the coming lifetime without end. Some of us will have considerable "debt" to repay but we'll be helped every step of the way.
When the time is right all of our eyes will be opened.

Quote from Pomo 6780
That was a well worded comment. You're jumping to a conclusion that I was initially passing judgment and old habits die hard? You're hugely mistaken.
It was actually just an observation with respect to many X-Jws. The learned feelings and behaviors of exclusivity as part of "The Truth" and the proclivity to pass judgment on others as being less privileged in the eyes of God, or less righteous in their walk, seem to survive learning TTATT. I suppose it is a testament regarding the depth of the "programming" to look down on those deemed Worldly.

It is all a well managed show. As are all things which emanate from the District of Columbia.
It seems to be having the desired effect. Such is the power of Mind Control.

Can you blame her?
No, she can't be blamed. She was tricked and trapped. If only she had known TTATT before becoming entangled with the witness. And yes, she will have everlasting life.

Question from New Boy:
First did god kill the baby because it got a blood transfusion to drive the point home to the disobedient husband?
I don't believe so. It may have been the prolonged delay in administering the potentially life saving blood. How very sad. The baby must have had a very serious condition.

Yep, the urge to pass judgment on those we deem to be our inferiors is one that dies hard. The indoctrination was wicked but certain aspects of it seem to continue to produce pleasurable sensations.
The Judge was very good at what he did judgmentally. The cult lives on even outside the cult!

New "paradise" video preview? "Will you be there?"
by stuckinarut2 inmy wife (unstuck) just saw a new 2-3 min video in her ex jw facebook feed, depicting a "paradise" scene preview.. it was complete with aerial shots and slow motion montages, with moving music.. scriptures were quoted across the screen, such as rev 21:3,4. i shazamed the music, and it came from another "worldly" album called "world of dreams.future world music" (you should see the song titles from that album!).
is it an official wt video, or some private persons production?.
if it is official, they seem to have once again resorted to desperate emotional manipulation tactics..... anyone else know?

The question asked:
Will you be there?
is a good one.
It has a splendid answer too. The witnesses will be shocked to discover that yes, they will be there, among the very great crowd of everybody else. That has always been the plan. We have much to learn on the way there.

Really well done! He's an able and capable spokesman for TTATT.
Hits that proverbial nail smack on its head too. For the WTBorg Cult Inc., baptism is indeed a trap.

What’s The Strangest Belief of Jehovah’s Witnesses?
by minimus inthere’s a lot.
i think one strange view is how only 144000 go to heaven.
since the number is mentioned in the symbolic book of revelation, you would expect that the number would be viewed as figurative, but jws say otherwise.

I agree, there are so many of their teachings which are strangely exclusive.
One that I never believed is that the WTB&TS is God's chosen earthly organization.
Another that I never believed is that only Jws will be "saved" and all others are doomed to eternal destruction.
Actually, I wasn't alone. I knew other witnesses who doubted those teachings as well. Back when the thinking ability of most witnesses wasn't as strongly controlled and discouraged as it has become nowadays.
