i have concluded that elders are people who take it as their right to torture any baptised member of the congregation who will not conform to their standards.. why do i say this?.
basically i think they see anyone who does not live up to their standards as a threat in which they risk exposure to fealings they would rather die than face.
(the irony they pride themselfs in thinking they are in the "truth").

blondie perhaps?
has the wts ever put in print what in their opinion is a cult?
a bold move on their part to be sure, but definitely within the scope of their brashness.. cheeses..
fokyc - Thank you for your prompt reply which answers my question exactly.
I agree with several other posters that by their own defintion they are a cult. But try getting the R&F to acknowledge that matter.

i think its time we had a preaching campaign to reach all known jw.
lets get 'territories' and letter drop them.
tracts under the door.
Mrs. Mouse. My apology. My immediate thought was "Why not Minnie, if that's the case?"
Cheeses. No joke associated with his name.

Mr. Mouse, I do not mean to take the mickey out of you but, the thousands of people who at the time of joining this site were active jws, were either mistakenly drawn to this site and were still 'loyal' jws, or they were jws who were searching for answers to questions they may have had about their religion. The latter ones by all means should be helped, as they have doubts, and perhaps a desire to either have questions answered or maybe help to assist them to escape the clutches of the wts.
Your leaflets are a good idea, but would have limited appeal. But, if you wish to go door to door then good luck to you, and I would be interested to learn of the responses you receive.
Cheeses. Still not of the evengelising class.

You may be well intentioned, but really, Why would you bother?. Surely you don't wish to waste your time (i.e your life) pursuing such persons who would consider you an apostate nutter. I am sure you could think of more constructive things to do apart from wasting it on jws.
Cheeses. Not the evangelising type.
as i did not have the opportunity and it was not necessary for me to write a letter of disassociation, this matter afforded me the chance to do so to some degree.. i have rewritten it here with names altered, and it was handed to my elder jw neighbour before he went to the tabernacle this morning.
i informed him anyone is most welcome to read it and to please be sure to distribute it to the appropriate congos in the area.. .

********** congregations of jehovahs witnesses.
To Whom It May Concern,
This past week my wife was spoken to by an unnamed silly old fool, who happens to be a member of your relgious cult, and who informed/suggested to her that I had spoken to Mr. *** ****** in relation to enquiring as to what was involved in "going back to the kingdom hall". Well, this surprised her, and upon being told of it, the news caused me utter disgust. Nothing could be further from the truth. I had spoken to ****** some months ago enquiring as to what I could do to determine the exact date of my disassociation meeting a number of years ago, as he, along with Mr. **** ****** were present at that meeting. I received a reasonable and satisfactory reply from ***** and that was the end of the matter to date.
As jehovahs witnesses are vile and prolific rumour mongers, let me set the record straight so that there can be no measure of uncertainty on your part. I apostacised (forsook the teachings etc, of jehovahs witnesses) and disassociated myself from the cult, for good reason, several years ago. I shun any association with them for reason of them being 'bad association'. I consider myself to be irreligious, and anti-religious, and especially have a robust loathing contempt for the teachings, beliefs, lifestyle, and adherents of the watchtower publishing corporation. I am proud to be a vocal, stauch, and hostile apostate opponent of the cult. To begin to imagine that I would even consider going back to that vile cult is delusional thinking of the grandest scale, but which is so common and typical amongst the cult followers.
I am thankful I had the wisdom to make the decision to leave which obviously was lacking on my part at the time I was recruited to the cult.
The religion is based around false hope, but the witnesses have no need to ever entertain the hope of me 'coming back' - and for that we can all be thankful. I would need to be either dead or in a coma to even enter a kingdom hall, and I acknowledge the only true words ever published by the watchtower publishing corporation, or spoken by a jehovahs witness is that "Religion is a snare and a racket". The witnesses inhabit a shallow pool of scum which fortunately is drying up as information concerning their practices comes to light.
With the utmost sincerity,

Can anyone confirm or deny that this direction is still 'current light' for the dubs?

i mean a prophecy made before the event, with specific detail that can be verified in history books.
nothing vague like 'reports of wars'.. .
There are some loopy bastards on this forum, but what is it about 70 weeks and the date 607 that seems to bring out 'the best' of them?
Cheeses. Dating with the dateless.
i can scarcley believe my eyes.
i read in another thread about c. t. russells attitude that his 'studies in the scriptures' is better than the bible and come to the conclusion they are not god abandoned today, god was never there.. fast forward to modern times and they are still at it, likening their body of teachings as being part of the bible.. most of you already know the pasages in their own lit that i refer to, i'm just stating my feelings as i dismantle a 38 year old belief system.. it seems to me, that all along, the belief of the watchtower society is this: our writings are true, they are backed up by the bible.
rather than, the bible is true, backed up by our writings.. disapointed.
Why the disappointment? Whatever the wts does is only what can be expected from such dangerously delusional fools.
Cheeses. By no means a fan.
