yes- everyone has faults and makes mistakes; an organization even more so.. yet, you ignore all the fingers pointing at you.. many here have no faith.
many here go to churches who lie about everything biblical; look at x-mas!.
but at least we know god and christ and try to live up to their name!.
DocHouse - I see you've ignored my second question, well done, so I'd like to put it this way:
Do you believe that the F&DS (GB) is God's channel to mankind?
The fact that you've taken the trouble to join a forum that 'good' JWs regard as 'apostate' suggests to me that you may have doubts.
My advice to you, FWIW, is stick around - everybody's allowed their opinions and beliefs here, and allowed to voice them in a sensible manner.
I hope you sort your situation out

DocHouse - what gives you the right to decide which faiths are/aren't Christian?
And which faith is truly Christian? Surely you won't say the WTS - you've been slagging them off for the past half hour.
the new forum originally had a little country flag next to each post showing the country that the post was made from based on the geoip encoding (the country the ip address is from).
before i switched over to the new site someone made an issue about it violating their privacy and i didn't want to complicate and confuse the switchover with policy debate at the same time as technical issues so removed the flags even though i disagreed.. someone has already requested it as a feature and i think it should be added back so i thought it's now time to open the discussion and get everyone's opinions.
first, the reason i think it should be shown:.
I want one of these:
[ nazi flag removed ]
I always thought they looked rather swish.

Greener, I just had a look at your posting history. You've recently joined and posted 16 times on 1 topic. What the f**k are you worried about?
Even if your name was, say, Jakob Mikkelsen from Fugloy, do you really think a flag with an off-centre, Scandinavian cross would lead to you being ID'd?
Nurse!

I would LOVE to be called to the back room for this- and would plop down a Recorder and say- is this because I take Jesus's words about a SINGLE generation as true? - even if this got you DF'd? Got you treated like sh1t or ignored by your friends and family?
Finkelstein basically beat me to it but do you still regularly attend meetings and hand in field service reports? Are you baptised? What do say if a brother remarks that it's hard to keep up with all this new light?
I'm still not fully convinced that you are a JW, TBH.

I would tell him/her it is their OPINION- a MISTAKEN one, since Jesus referred to a SINGLE generation - yeah but I forgot to mention it was the CO/DO's visit and he was accompanying you on your bible study.
Not so cock-a-hoop now are you. Mwa ha ha ha ha!

I'm with you, One Last Kiss, I think this thread is hilarious. Simon should seriously consider moving it to the Humour section!

DocHouse - do you still go out door-to-door?
Imagine the following scenario: you knock on someone's door and the householder expresses an interest. You and another JW conduct a bible study with him. He attends meetings. At one of these he hears about the overlapping generation teaching and asks about it in the following week's study.
What would you say to him? Would you parrot the party line or give your own opinion?
ok, so the time has finally come to register an account on this site.
not that i think i have much to contribute to the discussions here, but more out of a desire to show that yet another person has learned ttatt.
i am a fader, not discussing ttatt with anyone as i know the inevitable outcome it would have.
Welcome to the forum, LMR. My WTF moment came with the generation change of 1995, nearly a whole generation (normal definition) earlier than yours.
Stick around - everyone's entitled to have opinions and sensibly voice them on this forum.
churches: jesus switched bodies for you and has risen!.
jw org: jesus has been ruling for 100 years!.
both equally ridiculous!~.
You're spot on in your OP, DocHouse.
So, what's the answer, atheism or agnosticism?
