  A lot of these rules are about keeping men in the organization or protecting them.

  Homosexual acts don't constitute adultery and neither does bestiality.

  Unfortunately for the wife, she could end up with diseases from her husband shagging a sheep. There must have been enough of that going on for them to write about it.

  Haha babylon the Great was already supposed to have fallen years ago. How do we know? Because of the waters supporting her dried up......... But I guess she got up and fell again.,

  Wow and what an example of courage. Go to another hall. That will surely prepare you to be incarcerated and living by strict rules... Oh wait, that is what you are doing now if you follow the WT.

  Growing Up Strange (even for a JW)

  by GizmoSnicket in

  2. experiences

  i've been meaning to join an online ex-jw community for quite some time, and finally have made the effort to do so.

  i was raised in a small/mid size city in the northeast united states.

  i am currently 27 years old, just about five years fully out of the organization (after about two years of "fading" away).

  Hi. It's always interesting to hear how others lived in "the truth" I think it's a common thread of how parents and children live in two different worlds at the same time.

  I was always desperate to escape in some means from my life of "the truth" Like your family, my mother was a JW from when I was around 4. My father didn't bother to have a hand in raising us in any religion because he didn't like God. So my mother took all four of us girls to the meeting. My brother didn't have to go because he was a boy and my father was going to raise him. It sucks that my father who I wanted to save me from the meetings, wasn't interested in females.

  Your story of the friend's party is so sad because it is like a life preserver in the water waiting for you and it's pushed away by your mom. Friendships in school that others have for all their lives, are denied by the WT.

  Just a cruel and inhuman organization that steals children's lives and makes them live as outcasts.

  Cotton wool jws

  by purrpurr in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  there was a talk i heard recently given by a top bethel bro, he was complaining that the type of young jws that have been joining bethel in recent years has been totally unfit for work or even life.

  he called them "cotton wool jws" as he says that the parents of these young ones have kept them so sheltered from life that by the time they are of age to strike out on their own they are completely unable to cope socially, emotionally, mentally and that they have no practical life's skills or instincts of common sense or responsibility.

  he said that the brothers at bethel have to work at peeling off the layers of cotton wool these ones have come wrapped in and that often when exposed to the reality of life away from mummy they quite literally go running back home.. for once i actually agree with a brother on the platform, i've met many a young teen or young adult whose life has been one long warm bath as it were.

  On the other hand, someone posted what it is like in BetHELL. I wouldn't want to work there either. They recounted the story of a young man that didn't want to be there but his parents refused to let him come home. He ran away once or twice I think. He eventually jumped off the roof.

  Sad. Better to give the car up if that is what the gun wielding guy wanted. But the driver could have just panicked.

  Just goes to show that Jehovah doesn't give a crap about his servants.

  Go Bags, Safe houses and cartoon of two kids.

  by scruffmcbuff in

  i have been out a good 10+ years and until recently didnt pay much attention to what the jehovahs are up to.. why have they taken this turn with the bunker videos and making all the brainwashed people like my parents pack a go bag.

  now let me just clarify.

  im a military man i believe everyone should have an element of preparedness canned goods,bottled water and a bug out bag is a great addition ( ill stop waffling on about that now).. but what concerns me is the fact they are advising elderly people to bug out.

  Caleb and Sophia - tools of the WT to guilt and scare the kids with.

  My still in younger sister and her husband, visited their disassociated daughter's children. Without telling the mom or father (who isn't a witness) they showed them the "Sparlock" episode of Caleb. It's where Caleb's mom tells him his new toy is magical and does God like people who play with something that Satan is behind? She shows him a picture of Adam and Eve, all old and near death who disobeyed God and look what happened to them. He ends up throwing the toy away.

  The two children came back home, crying their eyes out. Why? They were going to have to throw away their My Little Ponies cause they were magical.

  The WT is evil and enjoys scaring children into obedience with threat of death.

  Irrationality of in important teaching

  by Ireneus in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  jesus used illustration to make things clear.

  hence imagine yourself in a situation which reminds you of an important teaching:.

  you are in a super market, and you are told: “someone has already paid for whatever you have purchased”[as churches teach through their ransom sacrifice].

  Obviously Jehovah and Christ Jesus never felt the same way about Satan as Jehovah`s Witnesses do ? or other Christians for that matter .

  by smiddy3 in

  simply put , jehovah tolerated satan coming and going before him in the heavenly realm for six thousand years before having him cast out of heaven .. think about that, six thousand years .!

  and having conversations jehovah and satan .no shunning of him in all this time .6000 years.

  we have an example of that in the book of job.and elsewhere.. the same is true with jesus christ ,according to the jehovah`s witnesses he was the first born of all creation and he also obviously tolerated satan for six thousand years .their is no example of shunning their either .. jesus was tempted by satan for fourty days { why was he with him for fourty days anyway ?

  Yeah, Jehovah and Jesus cleaned up their house of Satan and threw him down to the earth where all the poor humans, under the burden of sin, now had to suffer even more with the original "murderer" of their parents.

  I'm glad God loves us. Imagine if he hated us?

  Lies! Since the Watchtower knows how to lie, they can give expert advice on it.

  study article for october: speaking the truth.

  the article is about lying, but the wt is all about lying.

  i guess they are concerned with their followers lying to them!.

  smiddy3 - The WT always has an explanation. Evidently, since Adam didn't live to be 1,000 years old, he "died" before a day was thru.

  But do not let this one fact escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
