No evidence that "something" goes to heaven after we die, no one has ever come back besides what we read in the bible which i don't believe anymore.
No hell for sure.

Where do we go when we die?
by bsand20 inmy best friend of 14 years and maid of honor passed away 2 months ago at age 32 after battling breast cancer for 6 years.
i haven't been the same since for many reasons.. as a jw kid i believed 144,000 chosen went to heaven, the good people would be resurrected including those who didn't have a chance to hear about jehovah, and the rest, which were of other religions and bad people, died and would cease to exist.
again, because i was a kid when i left, i never really understood the jw position on death and why they came to their conclusion.

Possible announcement in October....
by Skinnedsheep inpure speculation for several reasons.. "friends, it has been 100 momentous years since christ arrived as king.
in the last 100 years a great shout of praise has gone up to jehovah.
technology has greatly changed the way people live and communicate and jehovah has made sure that his organization is on the forefront of these changes.

A little at a time they have been eliminating meetings, assemblies and it would not be shocking just like Paul mentioned in the 1st century that the preaching was done, the watchtower can claim the same.
Encourage the publisher to witness informally and send the money that they are saving on gas and car maintenance to the watchtower for building projects.
The GB is not stupid, they realize knocking on doors is nothing but a waste of time and money.

One of my best friend, an elder, married to a sweet woman, two kids, confessed going to prostitutes for many years so he could get a BJ.
He was DF , of course removed as an elder

If I asked for a loan from the WBTS would they give it to me?
by objectivetruth inif this were the "organization" that jesus chose in 1914.. err 1919, wouldn't the principles that he laid out while on earth apply to this organization as well?.
matthew 5:42 "give to the one who begs from you, and do not refuse the one who would borrow from you.".
so if jw's all asked for loans from the org, every now and then, it would be the orgs responsibility to grant those loans (interest free).

It looks like Jesus keeps on changing his mind of what the truth is all about.

Why Did the Governing Body Change Their Interpretation Of Matthew 24:45-47?
by Cameron_Don insome have wondered if "captives of a concept" had anything to do with why the governing body changed their interpretation of the most important scripture in their theology at their annual meeting on october 6, 2012.. this is because the book places great emphasis on the societys interpretation of matthew 24:45-47 and then holds them to it while examining the organizations history to make sure that went on in its history fits their interpretation.
this comparison is essential to the societys claim to being gods organization.. their previous interpretation came from their former most imminent bible scholar president frederick franzs in his "gods kingdom of a thousand years has approached.
" their history comes from their "jehovahs witnesses proclaimers of gods kingdom.".

The same reason why they change every other doctrine. Blind organization leading others.
Of course all the other religions are not any better.

Luke 12:45 - Does that mean the F&D can go "bad"?
by thedepressedsoul inthe more i read the gospels the more i get the feeling that jesus warns about organized religion or those that overbear on your faith telling you completely how to worship god.
let's say luke chapter 12 is talking about the f&s.
does vs 45 on mean that the f&s can turn bad so to speak?

What do you call a person who . . . ?
by Terry inwhat do you call a person who keeps promising to do something for you--but won't get up off their ass and do it?.
what do you call a person who needs money from you all the time and doesn't pay it back?.
what do you call a person who keeps you waiting and waiting and then, they don't show up?.
