  Ever try to contact local "inactive publishers"?

  by Sail Away in

  i'm just wondering if anyone has ever tried to contact inactive or disfellowshipped jws in their area.

  there are many faders in our area.

  there is also a large born-in family that had many leave who were labeled as apostates.

  I've connected with many in and outside my area.

  Went to the Tahoe gathering this past Summer.

  It nice to talk things through with people that "get it".

  i submitted a letter to the local k hall, explaining that i no longer believe my baptism as a jw is valid, based on my current bible knowlege.

  and i wish to be no longer considered a baptised [in this organization], jw, but simply a christain who studies the bible.. and then would continue to attend meetings?.

  they couldnt prevent me, its open to the public.. .

  If you were baptized under the age of 18, could you hire a lawyer to nullify the "contract" with this corporation?

  Minors can't enter into legal contracts~

  that's a crazy question.. they really mean, "do you regret your decesion to leave".. ---.

  it's just an ice breaker to become nosy into one's personal life.. ---.

  btw, last time i was asked this, no, everytime i'm asked this i reply with: "i'm never coming back".. they seem to hear that.. .

  another thread related but the title only says, "china is #1", which can mean anything and hence many may not view it who would be intersted in the world power shift.. for the first time since 1945 usa is #2 for economy.

  What Is The Ideal Discussion Board For You?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i think these boards are great!

  it gives us the opportunity to express our feelings, our viewpoints, our concerns, etc.

  when we were jws we could not freely do any of that.

  It's the content here that has kept me sane.

  Why is it wrong for Christians to celebrate Christmas?

  by james_woods in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this was inspired by terry's thread.... it is something that raises many questions about the jw belief system.. .

  for one thing - the bible certainly explains all the details of the christ birth.

  it certainly does not tell people to avoid celebrating it with feasts, customs, etc.

  The simple reason is that it makes Jehovah sad now.

  New Star Wars movie trailer

  by poopsiecakes in

  the first trailer has been released!

  true confession - i'm kind of a geek, always loved star wars and it gave me a bit of a lady boner.

  anyone who knows the franchise is probably familiar with the character wedge antilles.

  I think we can pretty much assume that the effects and entertainment factor will be great.

  The story? We'll have to see.

  I only risk personal health in a movie theater on special occasions.

  This will be one of those times, as were the JJ Star Trek offerings and last week, "Interstellar".

  Also, "Jar Jar Abrams" made me laugh...
