  i posted on another thread about a couple of my experiences of meeting the governing body while i was in brooklyn.

  i wanted to see if anyone else had any experiences along these same lines.

  i met most of the ones that were current during the 2001-2003 years.

  "Breaking Amish" TV show on TLC

  has anyone seen this show yet?

  it was really hard for me to watch the first episode in its entirety.

  it's so hard to see these young people have to decide between their family/religion vs. freedom or be shunned from everything/one.. or... maybe it's because this is my life?

  What apostates fail to recognize is...

  by nananana in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  you can cut & paste all the excerpts from articles you want...you can leak all the boe letters, you can pretend to be witnesses and come to the conventions and meetings...but.

  no other organization can begin to rival the success and magnitude of the prophecy found in mt 24:14. so apostates....don't waste your time spending countless hours digging up articles and reading books to convince yourself to turn away from jh's organization.

  no matter what "evidence" you find you cannot ignore the obvious fulfillment of matthew 24:14.. .

  Name Some Stupid Watchtower Rules or Ideas

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there's a lot.. one rule that is dumb is that a brother must wear a suit for a sunday public talk that he is giving.

  any other time, the brother could wear a suit coat with a different pair of pants and not be counseled for it.. another dumb idea is that you cannot date a person unless you seriously might marry them.

  if you're on a date, you were supposed to always have a chaperone and holding hands might not be allowed as well as sitting together.. what other dumb rules and ideas can you add?.

  2. beliefs

  in a minimus moment, i find myself interested in knowing which buzz-words and phrases in jw publications stand out the most to you?

  when i read wt literature, i constantly find myself astounded by how transparently cultish the language is.
