  Why would Jehovah and Jesus talk to Satan?

  by hardtobeme in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  if satan is the greatest apostate there is, why he was allowed to be in heaven?

  job chapters 1 and 2 says that jehovah talked to him.

  wasn't jehovah supposed to shun his son and set an example to all parents?.

  How are the JW's reacting to the new USA gay marriage laws?

  by purrpurr in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  personally i think this is wonderful.

  i have nothing against gay people and wish them only the best.. but of course i'm in a minority of one, the jw's around me are posting away on fb the most homophobic vitriol imaginable.

  a lot of them are even saying that it's the start to armageddon!!.

  Are there anymore recordings by others? I find it really enlightening to see the elders with their "nice face" off and see how they really behave behind the scenes.

  Thanks

  JW's copied Mormons?

  by purrpurr in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i've been doing a lot of research about mind control, cults etc which led me to look into the world and beliefs of mormons.

  the similarities between jw's and mormons are staggering!

  it's almost a carbon copy which only a few differences.. did the jw's set out to copy them i wonder?

  Slow motion pioneers

  by 1Averagejoe in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  observing our local unemployed pioneers and how long they take to get to their first or next call, usually taking the longest route to get to one they know won't be there anyway.

  along the way it's gossipy this and that.

  pioneers?

  It mostly seems like a social club these days. More time is spent chatting, getting coffee and takeaways than actually knocking on doors.

  I know of several who have admitted to me that they inflate their hours "I'm sure I must have in the past forgotten to count my time when informal witnessing so I add it on when I'm short that month" yeah right (!)

  I also know of one brother who regular pioneered for years and never got his hours in! But strangely enough the elders never did anything about it.

  Do they not realise how this appears to other people? Do they not realise they are breaking the law and could get into serious trouble?

  What reaction are you seeing?

  Single Sisters

  by BashfulAshG in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  am i the only one who has single, desperate sisters in the congregation?

  they tend to be holier-than-thou, frumpty, but in private talk about getting married.

  but they don't understand why no brother will look at them.

  Why must sisters wear skirts?

  by purrpurr in

  1. jw

  and or dresses?

  just what is wrong with a smart pair of trousers?

  i'm sure that the women would not start behaving like men or imagining that they have a dick!.

  I notice that not fundamental style religions seem to have this rule. Still no idea why though

  Why? In my view it makes JW's look like backwards weridos and loonys

  Is it necessary to prepare for the Watchtower or book study?

  by BashfulAshG in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  all of my years in the truth, i never understood why we had to study before each meeting.

  the contents are self-explanatory with the answers to the printed question within the first or the last sentence of the paragraph.

  then, commenting never made sense, especially comments and experiences that don't answer the printed question.
