Am I crazy or what!
by Ranchette inmost of you are are aware that i sent out a letter to friends and family exposing the organizations association with the un.. since that time there have been several very important developments including wtbs dissacociating themselves from the un.. because of this i felt i had to get this new information out to everyone i had writen the origional letter to.. i sent this update to out of town friends and family.i encluded a copy of the un letter announcing wt's dissacociation and the two guardian articles.. my plan met with a problem.i knew my local po had warned everyone not to read anything else from me.i knew he would do this so i even sent him a letter along with the rest to show that i stand behind what i wrote and i'm not afraid of him.. today i did the only thing i could think of,i wrote a new letter to the po.. here it is,.
dear po 10-16-01. circumstances have changed since my last letter to you and others.. i am honor bound to update you and them of these changes.
im sure that youve told everyone not to open anything from me so thats why i am writing to you only.. the information i sent earlier was accurate and true at the time but as i stated earlier things have changed.. enclosed please find an official copy of the october 11th 2001 letter announcing the termination of the wtbs association with the united nations.

A New Breed Of JW Emerging?
by Englishman inis there a new breed of jw emerging, i wonder?.
i know that there are lots of real brainwashed dubs around who see demons behind every car boot sale item and who scuttle off to the elders with every bit of tittle-tattle imaginable, but, i think that there is a new type of dub who quietly does just as he / she pleases.. this is what i think: many of the long-serving jw's who have seen the 1975 failure and the 1914 generation change are now approaching old age with something of a jaundiced eye, and are choosing to do their own thing in their remaining years.
in conversations i am picking up it seems that the elders are being regarded somewhat derisively by many jw's.

Leaving or not
by Norm inthe thread about people leaving has made me think of the 7 years i have been on the net and participated in various witness and ex-witness e-mail groups or discussion boards.. in these years i have seen many a person, which for various reasons come and go from such forums.
there are of course as many opinions as there are people and in such diverse groups there will always be debates about every conceivable subject there is.
people who come out of the watchtower society seems as a group particularly ill equipped to deal with disagreements and strong debates but of course some more than others.

They Really ARE Drones
by BoozeRunner inon my way to a bus this a.m., i happened upon a mother and two sons (i think) doing streetwork with their magazines.
the oldest son(he appeared to be about 15 years old) approached me and began his presentation with the 8/01 wt and its companion awake mag.. as i listened to him, i couldnt help but notice that there was no joy nor excitement in his voice.
it was just a rehearsed presentation delivered in a monotone way.. how could the "troof that leads to eternal life" motivate someone so little when telling others about it?
