  How would YOU like to die - At home with your family, or in Hospital with Strangers

  by fulltimestudent in

  2. current

  a big decision no one wants to make, but would you have a preference?.

  and, i guess it may depend on what kind of relationship you have with your family.. .

  A very nice spot in the woods way behind my parents, in the early spring, with the daffodils in full bloom. Alone except for my dog, and me!

  At This Point In Time Would You Ever Subject Yourself To A Judicial Committee?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  i certainly wouldn't.

  and if the elders wanted to have a meeting with me, i would respectfully decline.

  if the elders wanted to deal with you, would you talk with them?.

  i wasn't looking where i put my feet, and i almost took the cart out!

  anyway, i stopped and chatted with the people for a bit.

  three women and a man -- an elder and his wife.

  I would NEVER be rude to any of them! It would only make them dig in deeper, and say, Wow you can sure see that person has lost gods holy sprit, and instead, is filled with the satanic sprit!

  Feeling sad over a wasted life in watchtower

  by wannaexit in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it's been 12 years since i first read ray franz's books and the scales came off my eyes.

  by that time i was in my forties.. since 2002 i went back to school and have worked with 3 very professional organizations.

  but my biological clock is ticking away and while my peers are looking forward to retirement, i am only beginning.

  I really woke up early last year. 54 years down the drain. I so wish i had woke up so long ago. The sad thing to me is, I am pretty beat up health wise, and still stuck pretending. But I am close to the breaking point in so many ways! And so tired of this game, and the wasted life, that I gave to the borg!

  just wanted to introduce myself

  i've been a lurker for quite some time and enjoy the forum.

  i've reached a point in life where i don't argue ideologies anymore so i don't have much to say.

  i've been out for decades and believe i've been mostly de-cultabilized (if that's even a word).. my family is still in and i haven't had contact with them in years.

  Jehovah’s Witnesses costs/benefits analysis

  by What is Truth? in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  jehovahs witnesses costs/benefits analysis .

  motivated by the 9/15/14 watchtower studied nov 16th.

  i chose to take up their odd challenge, on paragraph 16 which is among many suggestions in this article that would bring up questions if followed through by any thinking person.. how do you feel about being a christian?

  Forgive the shepherds for all mistakes, even ones done willfully, with intent to ham? That drives one over the edge? Crushing their heart, mind, and soul? To the point death is the only welcome thought in your mind?

  Jehovah's organization growing like never before: but bible studies are way down. Huh?

  by kneehighmiah in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so the governing body likes to keep claiming incredible growth.

  at the same time they claim bible studies are way down.

  are the finally admitting what we've known all along, that they can no longer recruit outsiders?

  My Marking Talk

  by jws in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  back to august of 1988. my brother and i were the ones being marked.

  at the time, my father had clued us in that it was coming and had gotten a recording of it.

  are we not also obliged to act on wrongs being committed by a family member or members?
