  Why do I suddenly want to start reading JW literature and going to Kingdom Halls?

  by yogosans14 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  is good calling me back or am i just letting my emotions get the best of me?also i really want to be closer to my jw family.

  btw i was never baptized and i consider myself a born again christian i go to a baptist church and wath televangelist and i have expirenced gods presence like never before but sometimes i get fearful and think "what if jws are right and i'm wrong" than i'm screwed!but if there wrong and i'm right it doesn't look to good for them.. i would prefer if nobody posted "god isn't real" type comments.

  i truly believe he is real but i respect why some are atheists..

  Logical consistency, the claims of a belief system must logically cohere

  to each other and not contradict in any way.

  Empirical adequacy, is there evidence to support the belief system.

  The problem, the very book that religious organization follow are

  full of contradiction and no evidence of the stories in the bible.

  For some reason God made it very elusive for mankind to understand

  his wishes. That's why you are in the predicament you are in today.

  If you feel God is calling you it is definitely not the JW God, he is

  busy with child abuse cases..

  I just read this. If you do not filter the thought that enter your mind, you

  stop to be a free person. If not you behave and act like a puppet on

  This is why you can't take the bible seriously. So long before preparation H

  was invented God gave the Philistines hemorrhoids. Seven month-long

  flaring pack of hemorrhoids, it was so bad they cried out to heaven, in fact

  the whole city cried out to heaven. Yes it was heard in Heaven,"my ass is

  hurting God" 1Sam 5:12. This is some funny stuff.

  Drugs and Alcohol Ruin Your Life

  by campaign of hate in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this point was raised in another thread vaguely, and wanted to try and expand on it.. the wt has said (and rightly so in my opinion) "that excessive use of drugs and alcohol can ruin your life".

  in my eyes this is a fact.. this is where it starts to get a little suspicious, as they also say (or subtly hint at) "that if you leave the wt you will becoming addicted to drugs and alcohol and will ruin your life".. its almost like a self fulfilling prophecy.

  as there are a lot who leave the borg and they do start drinking heavy or smoking, or taking drugs...or whatever.. the wt capitalizes on the fact that people want more freedom, and they subtly ingrain the thought that.

  So true; alcohol had me in a down spiral after leaving the borg. Only

  after I researched the borg my life changed for the better.

  The borg have a lot of over the counter drug users and tons of alcoholics.

  Wait a minute, so who is mentally diseased? Did he catch something by

  being here, will he infect members in the congregation. He associated

  with you folks here you devil worshippers, fornicators, fork tongue hateful people.

  Trust us we will not cast a spell on you in your departure, wish you the

  the best of luck. Hell I forgot, I can't say luck, go in peace.

  hi guys, this is my first post; i thought i should introduce myself.

  i was raised and spent most of my life a jw before i was disassociated, because i refused to stop seeing a non witness girl.

  i must say their decision to cut me off from my family and friends although initially traumatic ended up being the biggest blessing in disguise of my life.

  you'll be back. Richard Pryor comedy dialogue on when he was

  hooked on drugs. He said the pipe would call him, smoke me you

  will feel better, you don't need no one but me, they don't understand

  I understand, I'm your friend. LOL

  But if you are at the point to move on, that's great.

  Why a JC if the adulterous mate is forgiven?

  by snugglebunny in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  supposing a man's wife has had an affair, confessed all and genuinely regrets what's happened.

  the husband, after much soul searching and agonising, realises how much he still loves her and how much both of them want to rebuild their shattered relationship.. why should that woman then have to sit in front of a judicial men-only committee and give a blow-by-blow account of her affair?.

  how would that make her husband feel, knowing that his wife is sharing intensely private stuff about her affair with several other guys?.

  have any ex-elders here had a case where someone denied committing

  adultery or fornication when the other party had come forward to confess??

  Lets say the woman come forward , the guilt is too much. If the

  guy comes in and tell the elders I have no idea what this woman is talking

  about, I have never touch her, she is nuts, what can the elders do???

  Another topic on child abuse I believe someone mention this, two witness thing.

  Why do people "come back"?

  by kairos in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know of several examples of ones that "left the truth" for up to 20 years, only to suffer through the reinstatement process and feel like they are finally back on track.. how does this happen?.

  i personally know of one example where a father of three, leaves jws, abandons wife and family, lives as a gay man then comes back 20 years later as a partaking member of the anointed..

  How many of you here would return (KH) if N. Korea or China dropped

  a nuclear bomb in N.Y, the start of WW3.?? Speaking for myself i

  would volunteer for the home front, not for one minute would I consider running

  back to the KH...
