You atheist really annoyed me
by confusedandalone inwhen i first came to this site.
whenever i would try to talk about somethign from the bible that the jw's got wrong or reason on a scripture that had so much feeling you would stomp all over it.
talking about "flying spaghetti gods" and laugh at what seemed to be my expense and then leave the thread never to return and add any substance.

Leaving the Watchtower religion behind...are we ABLE to reconsider with FREEDOM what may NOT be "true?"
by Terry inas we all now know, once you leave the watchtower religion you are exposed to the possibility of education for the first time.. an ex-jw discovers that the theocratic lessons they have learned were not all they were led to believe , i.e.
"accurate knowledge.".
is this story actually true?

If the "Governing Body" arrangement is so effective and sanctioned by Jehovah
by confusedandalone inthen why in the world was it only effective for what 10 years tops beforeit dissappears?.
there is never any direct mention of it anywhere - and even if implied how many decisions did it make?
if it was such a cornerstone and vital to the proper flow of god's earthly organization why doesn't it have a clear track record of existence as well as successful decisions.

Another non-JW reacts to Sparlock video
by cedars inhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-ssv2nh0rc.
and two weeks ago i highlighted another video where sparlock helped an ex-mormon.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmesmlhydru.
though it still depresses me to think of all the young ones (including my own relatives) falling under the influence of this dangerous piece of propaganda, it's at least some small comfort that the sparlock video is backfiring so dramatically among thinking non-jws.. .
