  Are Jehovah's Witnesses Scottish?

  by RottenRiley in

  1. social
  2. humour

  my experience with jws, often they were very frugal and cheap, willing to use my car in field circus every weekend.

  why are jehovah's witnesses so dense and obtuse when it comes to sharing costs and contributing?

  has the topic of district convention 'tight-ass cheap-skating' jehovah's witnesses been talked about?

  I'll buy you all a drink if ever you come to Scotland, I am Scottish but not a JW. Just imagine how tight Scottish JWs are!

  at the meeting last night i was approached by an elder and he asked me what my schedule was like for the next week or so.

  i told him im not sure ill have to tet back with him and i asked why and he said kindly but in an odd sort of way "for a visit".

  my wife and i have not gone out in field service and have been missing meeting left and right mostly due to sickness and family.

  Language and terms used are important to a cult. If you stop using it or questioning it alarm bells will ring with them.

  Why do so many exJWs promote Watchtower lies and cover-ups?

  by Fernando in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  several footnotes in the nwt correctly define apostasy as "unfaithfulness".. that is spiritual unfaithfulness/adultery/fornication/prostitution/harlotry.. in scripture the jews were called (spiritual) prostitutes (37 times in ezekiel chapters 16 and 23).. they claimed a relationship with the god of abraham.. yet they lusted after other gods.. and they had frequent wanton spiritual intercourse with these gods.. to cover-up their own lewd apostasy the watctower lyingly redefines the word to mean a dissenter (against the watchtower).. anyone who dissents is labelled an apostate.. ray franz discovered their apostasy.. he dissented.. he exposed their spiritual harlotry in detail (isocf and coc).. they lyingly labelled him an apostate.. and many if not most exjws say this is all fine.. even worse, many exjws proudly wear the label.. to show their proud support of watchtower lies and cover-ups.. how sad....

  Not everyone promoting the WTBS lies would label themselves apostates. More like 'showing the bleedin obvious'. Do you remember a craze called Magic Eye. It was a sheet of paper with a pattern on it and if you looked hard enough you'd see a picture in it. This is why ones you call apostates promote the lies and cover ups, in the hope that other finally see the picture.

  the latest awake is online.

  there is a story about a nun who became a communist and then got disillusioned with that.

  here's a quote.... .

  The majority of JWs won't see the connection, it's different if you stop associating with god's chosen few!

  hello!

  glad to be a new member and find others with similarities of background.

  some background info on me: my dad became jw when i was young, so i spent maybe a third of my life in the religion.

  although i respect everyone's beliefs, i personally knew many genuinely selfless people in my congregation, but the way i was raised, now that i am an adult i am realizing was very sheltered and unrealistic.

  Welcome gamergirl. It's sad how much a child misses out on being raised in a JW house. Glad you're catching up!

  well 2013 is behind me and i'm pleased that it is done and dusted.

  it was a hard one, filled with doubt, fear, pain and horribleness.

  i was very fortunate to get out of that horrid job and get back into advertising with the fever.

  This night a dream made me cry

  by Gorbatchov in

  this night was a painful one.

  i had a very emotional dream and woke up realise that i was crying emotional.. in my dream my past 43 years did go by with all my close family and ended abruptly after i had to tell my paralyzed brother that we were the only two left and that our parents died.. because he can't talk, he only could express himself with his facial expression in his small room of an institute.

  it seems something is going on with me, it feels painful and i think it has to do something with our believe background.. wish me luck to deal l with it.. gorby.

  Nightmares can leave you a bit unsettled however nightmares in your sleep are better than nightmares when you are awake. Do something today to make you fell happy.

  the brutal assault of ann bates brought 60 year old memories of my jw/annointed landlady and her.

  jw/annointed husband and their loud, swearing arguments.

  she came home one night black and blue.

  It was a very sad storyline, quite shocking. I wonder how the couple you talk about felt about being in heaven together!!

  Do Wills Ever Affect Shunning?

  a man has several sons and daughters who are active jehovah's witnesses.

  so was his wife, who died two years ago.

  he has since lapsed into apostasy and has been openly critical of the governing body.

  Money motivates people, they'd find a way to bend the rules to suit themselves.
