Celtic,
Best of Wishes!
I am sorry that this place didn't help you at all.
Oh well, all I can say is Wish You the Best and Keep in Touch!
From an outsider and never-been-JW,

Goodbye to friends made here, moving on
by Celtic inummmmm how to put this?
i'm leaving and moving on from this community, obviously to the great delight of many of you, however, for all the other more genuine characters, may i extend a hand of appreciation for all the help that you have given me at times.. to be honest, this place makes me feel more ill often than better, it feels like i'm sliding backwards the longer i stay around.. maybe one day i'll return when attitudes from those who could be more socially responsible actually make their nessarsary changes rather than constantly being on the attack against those who have no other agenda but a desire to help out their fellow man, regardless of religion, creed, sexual orientation or whatknot.. to those friends that i have made here, please feel free to email me anytime and/or if ever you need any help personally, please do not hesitate to call upon me.. cheerio, keep your chins up.. peace & whatknot(?).
mark.

What would you think if?
by getingout inif a dud came to your door and said, we no longer shun ex members let's become friends again.
if the wt said the preaching work has ended.. if wt encouraged the members to vote in all elections.
if the blood ban was removed.

But I DO NOT THINK THAT 6 BILLIONS OF PEOPLE WILL GET DESTROYED IN ARMAGEDDON THROUGH A GREAT SLAUGHTER.
That`s nonsense. Jehovah is a kind and merciful God, and HIS intention is that as many people as possible should survive to the new world system
Erich:
Does that mean that righteous people who are not Jehovah's Witnesses will survive Armageddon?

nytelecom,
if this is getting too easy, then why don't you say what is the rule?
It's been posted here. Unless you didn't bother reading the post, then that's really the easy part.

questions about obtaining Higher Education for JWs
by AjaxMan ini have read a couple of threads the last couple of days that dealt with what you have to give up when becoming a jw.. most posts that i read said they have to give up getting a higher education.
my question is this: is that still a trend today?
that elders frown or discourage young jws from going to college or university by telling them to put kingdom's interest first?

DIM,
Is there or was there any article in WTS publications that states that it is allowed to attend college and particularly 4 year university or higher education?

The girls had to wear ankle length dresses! Playing a sport.
Is that for real? I wonder if they can wear sweatpants instead (those are ankle length).For an outsider like me, the weird rules of the WTS never cease to amaze me.

But WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH THE GOVERNING BODY?
YOUR calling me a joke? I DIDN"T MAKE UP THAT STUPID RULE!NYtelecom1 responding:
[quote]and neither did the gb.....booohahah[quote]No wonder why people are leaving the organization based on what nytelecom sez and no wonder why outsiders like me don't have interest in becoming a JW because of responses that nytelecom give.
BTW nytelecom, your response is really contradictory. If the gb didn't make that rule, then who did? the congregation elders? the DO's? the CO's? It certainly didn't come from outsiders like me and it certainly didn't come the xJWs.
Can you tell me who made up that rule, nytelecom?
