Where In the Bible Does It Say To Hate People Who Leave The Organization? Apostates and the District Convention Theme of Hating Them!
by AuntConnie ini am back from bakersfield and i can say it was the best district convention ever!
the end is coming soon, a few of the annointed were speaking about 2014 possibly being the year that jehovah would destroy all the hateful apostates!
the focus of this convention was not on love or the message of the good news of the kingdom.

Adamah, in the 50s and 60s I remember sisters introducing themselves as ministers in the d2d work. I remember it being taught that all publishers were ministers. Am I the only one who remembers this.

Our DC is on now and I...
by Julia Orwell in...was just in the yard playing with my cat.
spent ages with my beautiful cat, watching her roll on the lawn and purr.
her fur is unbelievably soft.. we slept in, got up, had a leisurely breakfast knowing we can go at our own pace, tended the chickens, i called my brother; hubby and i did some housework, played with the cat, and we're off to a lunch date down the local pizza place, knowing we won't have any jws pass by and snub us or look askance at hubby's beard because they're all in brisbane.. it feels a bit funny missing something i've been going to since i was 18, but it also feels good.

Maybe you all would have known my husband. But he wasn't a big partyer but he was into fast muscle cars.

My daughter got her A Levels yesterday and is off to university in September
by Xanthippe inshe took english, maths and physics and acheived a* a* and a. .
it is the best thing possible for me, even better than seeing her opening birthday presents or the day she won the halloween fancy dress prize at school.. her dad died five years ago but she has coped and done so well at school.
it has shown me that despite what happens in life you can still do well and reach your goals, especially if you take a cult upbringing out of the equation!

Lois Lane is a big hearted person who wants to help in any way she can. I am sure the congregation misses her even though they won't say it to her. Lois Lane stay true to yourself.

WEASEL words: "nobody forced to choose religion vs family" Insight
by hamsterbait indo we see now how this "statement" in the public rags is deceitful?.
"nobody should be forced to choose between a religious way they cannot concientiously believe or their family.".
all jdubs conscientiously believe what they are forced to swallow.

Why are the moms so attached to religion?
by ILoveTTATT inplease don't take this the wrong way, i would love it for women to comment on this thread because i just can't understand something!!.
here's the pattern i see:.
mostly guys in here.. if the guys are married, their wives usually stay a jw, or it takes 3 times as much time to convince a woman to leave than a man.. if the guys have a jw father, the father is open-minded and can be more easily persuaded to leave.

I have been thinking on this subject for a while. Women are definitely more emotional than men. Speaking for myself only, I remember doubts since I was in my teens yet I always dismissed these doubts because of emotional attachment to family, I spent 50 years wondering why I always had doubts but never asking questions, I always felt I was the only one experiencing questions of why I understood scriptures differently from others. I attribute this to emotional ties with those I love. Even now at 65 I handle my JW family members from the emotional level.

I recently had two of these active JWs try to explain how it is a loving thing to shun both ended up in emotional distress. So how can a such loving arrangment cause so many people so much stress. Stress is not LOVING. Shunning is not LOVING. I choose to show true love.
