They have nowhere else to go!

by Crazyguy in

i think the overwhelming problem with trying to wake up friends and family is they have nowhere else to go.

i mean these people all their friends are jws a lot of them their family is jws.

if they wake up or agree with you in anyway they know instantly that they loose all this, many will even loose jobs.

EverApostate

Where else would you go ? Is a question asked by Dubs to those who rebel or fade

Why should I go elsewhere ? Abandon all religions and Just live my life satisfactorily after having realized this is the only one

When I was in New Jersey, I had a bunch of Indian JWs who were almost like family to us. When I started to know ttatt, I stopped going to meetings and asked my fellow believers all I came to know.

One final day, these so called friends of mine, invited me to a dinner party where some 20 Indian JWs were gathereed

After the dinner, 2 elders took me to the basement and told me straight at the face, that they would not associate with me hereafter and they cannot dine in the table of demons. They told me to leave.

Was very heartbreaking and I walked out weeping along with my still in JW wife. A year later, I dissociated myself to prove that I have the guts to do so and to tell them that I am not anymore afraid of the Cult.

Brotherly love in action..

by Jrjw in

i'm so upset and angry at the same time.

i move in less than 2 weeks and was supposed to be getting help off "brothers" to move and one of them was driving the van and now the elders have had a meeting and told the brothers they can't help coz i'm separated from my (abusive) jw husband and with moving it puts the chances of reconciliation (of which there was zero chance) even further away.

where are these stupid rules that they come up with.

EverApostate

JWs are trained to Switch on / Off the Love(Cant call this love in the first place), based on your dedication to the WT

You are faithful to the WT: Switch the LOVE ON

You rebel : Switch the LOVE OFF:

My Experience.

Friday crucifixion?

by rstrats in

it is my understanding that jws believe that the crucifixion occurred on friday.

however, luke 24:21 would seem to indicate that it couldn't have occurred any later than thursday.

how do you explain the seeming discrepancy?

EverApostate

Even if Jesus was real and he was crucified on a Friday, so what ? Has it proved any thing beneficial to mankind. NOPE.

Are there any full preterists here?

by quincemyles in

are there any folks here who believe that armageddon, the "second coming of christ.

" the great tribulation and resurrection are past events rather than future?.

EverApostate

Armageddon - Fear mongering word coined by a Psychopath.

"second coming of Christ - Even the first coming is still highly Suspicious.

great tribulation - Happened often in mankind's History but nothing to do with any Gods.

Resurrection - Not possible until now, unless man finds a way through medical science. All religious Books resurrections are Bogus

For Rattigan350 - I meant that the stars were created after the earth, as the Bible says

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth

16 God made two great lights—the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars

When ever I feel a little depressed I read all these Bible stuff. Best humor that would cheer you up, guaranteed

Earth created first and then the stars and the heavens

Talking snake and Donkey

Jacobs Sheep cloning.

Samson and those blazing poor foxes.

Solomon's 600 wives and 300 Concubines. And he is supposed to be the Wisest man on earth. Bibles definition for wise may be.

Mary Impregnated by Holy Spirit. I underestimated Holy spirits dynamism.

Baby Jesus has to escape to Egypt. What the heck ?? Jah didn't provide angelic protection ?

Resurrected Zombies, after Jesus Death.

Since leaving the JW Organization, who is believing?

by Issa in

jw
friends

i left the jw organization last year during summer.

maybe some of you can relate.

who of you are agnostic or an atheist?

EverApostate

Grateful to Watchtower for turning me into an apostate and the Bible for making me an Atheist.

As many have mentioned here, after becoming an atheist, I respect other people's beliefs and get along unless any one tries to drag me into their religion.

Will the Watchtower Corporation continue to lie and deceive just to sustain itself into the future ?

by Finkelstein in

the wts has been selling and promoting christ's return and the end times since the late 1800's, right through all of the 20th century and still continues today on the same core doctrinal premise.. 1914 was set as a year of christ taking position upon his heavenly throne followed by choosing the wts as his earthly guided organization in 1919 according to the wts.

leaders at that time.. the actual truth is that the wts is a publishing house and it was inherently pressed to make up doctrines which would gravitate attention to its published goods, accurate and honest bible interpretation was a second lesser concern.. the original heads of this religious publishing house (c t russell) first proclaimed that christ had returned in 1874 and 1914 was going to be the year jesus was going to cleanse the earth of all wickedness etc.

this was obviously a false doctrine tainted with ignorance and a bit of commercialization in reality.. so the question remains what will the wts do in the future, what will the wts do as far as doctrines to allure the general public at large ?

EverApostate

In other words preaching the Gospel of the Watchtower Corporation was not the true Gospel by Jesus and his instructions written in the bible

Jesus is mythical. May be some parts of Jesus story may be true. All miracles and stuff are made up.

In that context, any Christendom religion would try to manipulate its adherents and lie to survive. Not only WT

H1N1 Virus evolved as a more advanced species in the Next few years that required a more advanced medicine to eradicate.

This is micro Evolution. In fact the whole concept of inventing new medication, for known viruses, is based on micro Evolution. I have told this Several times to my JW wife.
