  Purging and letting go of the past

  by Skinnedsheep in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  my wife and i decided that today would be the day that we would let go of the past.

  we collected all of our watchtower published books and brochures and threw them out.

  it was honestly bitter sweet to toss our old pioneer books, marked up insight books, and notes from 25 years of conventions.

  Prediction- JW's will create their own Social Network Site

  by Skinnedsheep in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  with their advancement into web based programming and their soon to be broadcast meetings the need for a physical meeting place is quickly diminishing.

  i predict that the large scale sell-of of kingdom halls will begin in the next few years as the people get their meetings online.

  the one thing that would be missed with a liquidation of kh halls is "upbuilding" association which will force the society into creating a jw social media app which will not only allow for association but close monitoring of the pubs.

  I'm out- Random thoughts on leaving as I look in the rear view mirror

  by Skinnedsheep in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it is amazing to look back at three years and see the journey that we have taken.

  i went from being an elder to fading completely in the course of those three years.

  along the way i am happy to say that my lovely wife woke up and realized that the truth is nothing but a lie.

  Lying about Shunning! jw.org conceals the "truth"

  by Skinnedsheep in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  http://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/faq/shunning/ .

  "those who were baptized as jehovahs witnesses but no longer preach to others, perhaps even drifting away from association with fellow believers, are not shunned.

  in fact, we reach out to them and try to rekindle their spiritual interest.".

  Zealot, the life and times of Jesus of Nazareth.

  by Skinnedsheep in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i am halfway through this book and it certainly gives perspective into the 1st century environment.

  it makes some really great points about some inconsistencies found in the gospels along with reasons for the inconsistencies.

  has any one else read it?.

  JW.org shows that the society doesn't really want to talk to people who aren't witnesses

  by Skinnedsheep in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i find it fascinating to see how quickly the society has about faced on the use of the internet.

  interestingly they still have not adopted two way communication channels such as facebook, twitter, instagram.

  etc.. if you are lurking....why do you think that is?

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in the last 6 months my family and i have stopped attending cold turkey.

  it is incredible to me to see how our so called friends have dropped us like we were a snake covered in spiders.

  we actually havent really said anything to anybody about why we stopped.
