Are Jw's that important?
by integ insunday's talk on avoiding satan's snares brought out an interesting point that the human government's very soon will be turning all their military and political might on god's people here on earth, because of the fact jehovah's witnesses would be perceived as such a dangerous threat to the governments of the world because of their christian neutrality.
which begs the question.....when the hell were the witnesses ever a dangerous threat to anything besides logic?
they really are so freaking full of themselves.

50 years from now ! What will the Watchtower say about the 1990's 2000's ?
by run dont walk inif russell , rutherford and even knorr's work is considered misinterpeted, or overzealous, or they didn't have a complete understanding of the scriptures (even though they were of the annoited class).
can or will the same be said 50 years from now about today's publications.. this really intrigues me, i love reading the history of the watchtower and looking back at some of the beliefs and predictions.
i really appreciate the 1975 stuff more today then ever.

Did you lose respect for your parents because of the JW / Watchtower crap ?
by run dont walk inthis is probaly one of my biggest problems i dealt with growing up in the jw crap.. it's no fun growing up alone.. i am sorry, but i hated my parents (probaly from the time i was 13), i know that is mean and a terrible thing to say, but that's how i felt.
i had no respect for them growing up in the borg.
they taught me nothing about ................. having a relationship/dating.

Convention Report
by Euphemism ini just got back from my convention yesterday evening.
i'll be trying to catch up on the posts as time allows, but there is a very large volume; so if i miss any personal replies, please forgive me.. this was my first convention since i became mentally free, and it was just painful to sit through.
i used to be one of those dubs who actually enjoyed conventions.

Did you know that all the JW buildings will survive Armageddon ??? HAHAHAHA
by run dont walk inalright, my family, just when i thought they couldn't get any stupider, then find a way to outdo themselves.. talking to them the discussion led to me saying, "if armageddon is soon, why is the watchtower building new facilities in patterson and buying all new printing presses.".
the answer, (you better be sitting down for this).
"well, the work needs to be done, and besides all those buildings will survive armageddon, and will be continued to be used.".
