.....have already died.. they have given over any semblance of a normal life to a kult korporation that just continues to feed on their fears.
they might as well be dead.. many of the millions who were alive when that statement was made *did* die, waiting in vain to get the don lapre shortcut to financial prosperity and happiness.
they mistakenly thought if they just put in a little more time here, host another co there, they would get the house of their dreams in the real soon now paradise that is perpetually "just around the corner.".

i came across this old post from h2o and thought you might find it interesting.
how far we have come to be at the point we are.

Avenger,
I agree wholeheartedly with your words that here and there a battle may be lost but the war will be won.
And I would just like to add:
This latest tactic by the wts to df those who have openly spoke out in standing up for what is right, is nothing more than a desperate attempt to try and save their skins.
It won't work. It will just make all of us fight even harder. To win we just have to be imaginative. Albert Einstein said that"Imagination is more important than knowledge".
I know that this latest tactic has made me want to fight even harder and thats exactly what I'm going to do.
The fact is that WE are fighting for what is RIGHT.
The wts is fighting for what is wrong and thats why they will lose.
The wts is the most evil entity on the face of this earth and is the biggest fraud/deception of the 19th 20th, and 21st centuries.
Destroy the wts and the world will be a much better place.
The wts MUST be exposed, taken down, and DESTROYED.
I'm not saying I know exactly how it will eventually happen although I'm sure the pedophile situation among others will be some of the things that signal their death knell.
But here is one thing that is for sure: The wts came into being as the result (not of God), but instead as the result of the THOUGHTS of some people.
Their destruction will also come about as the result of the THINKING of people who are standing up for what is right.
And one of the things it takes is : "imagination."

amnesty int'l, along with other human rights groups, are frequently.
called upon to defend jehovah's witnesses.
for example, a witness.
this guy released a book in 2001. because of its success, he has decided to proceed with a 'denunciation' lawsuit.
sounds handy.
wonder if a similar action could be taken against the wts.... .
I am sure that the same type of lawsuit could be brought against the wts if anyone wanted to.

two unsettling incidents are lodged in my memory.
they are unrelated, except in the general sense that they opened tiny fissures in the foundation of my belief system.
returning from the summer assembly in kansas city, missouri in 1969, i was approached by tom moore, a plain-speaking circuit overseer .
AMNESIAN,
Well said. I agree with everything you wrote. And I also know that the GB does not believe their own writings. They know their teachings are false but from the days of Rutherford its all about money and control of peoples lives and people's money.Its obvious. God never used them, he's not using them now and he never will. And they are criminals because they know all of this. They are the biggest fraud of the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries.

have you folks or your agents read and carefully digested the posts in the very recent thread entitled "how many got the real truth from the internet"?.
and it spells trouble for you.. you would be doing the world a favor if you just admitted your faults and disbanded the entire organization.
and given the destruction you've wrought in people's lives over the last hundred years and more, that's exactly what you should do.. but, since there's so much money involved you won't do that until you're forced.
THATS WHAT I LIKE TO HEAR.
WELL SAID.

I also did not pay enough attention to warning signs.
Around 1995, there was a wt article that really ticked me off and I found myself saying "how could they have such a cold hard attitude toward people who had suffered because of listening to them?"
This article had to do with alternative military service.The article actually gave a change in how we should view it.It was now allowed.But it also said something to the effect that Christians should not feel bad that they had "followed their conscience" in this matter and had suffered for it,(ie jail time etc.), even though now there was a change in view on the particular matter that they suffered for.
In other words; Just because we are now giving you "new light", don't feel bad that you suffered under the "old light".
This was a definite warning sign. I wish I had seen the full significance of it. I could have saved myself a few more years.
DakotaRed: What a story! These are the types of things the media needs to know about. I don't know how you restrained yourself from beating them down.

it took everything i had to stay seated thru the bookstudy tonite, i felt like getting up and leaving.
the fact that i'm the designated reader did'nt make matters any better either.
i'm not sure how many people on the forum have the isaiah's prophecy book but if you do have a copy check out chapter 21.. chapter 21 in paragraphs 3 talks about how enemies of the israelites (pharoah, nebuchadnezzar)were compelled to acknowledge that jehovah was with his people.
Leander,
Interesting post about the Isaiah book. I have book 1 and book 2.
One of the most ridiculous things about this book is that there are times when it claims that ancient isreal represents modern day christendom.And then at other times it claims that other nations of the world represent modern day christendom.
This is so ridiculous and the sad thing is that the average j-dumb will just sit there and listen to that garbage and will not see the obvious contradictions.
Really God-inspired writing huh?

This is a very interesting post. If the bits of information provided here from personal conversations and experiences were generally known by dubs, it would help more of those who can still think for themselves to leave the borg.
