some people in this place think that jws break up families.
they say that since jws df unrepentant baptized members and insist on jw family members restricting association with df members that jws try to break up families.
what do you think about this charge?.
It was non's opinion. But it is one he thinks is correct.
You said it. It is your opinion just like deddaisy has her own opinions Or Must all of us have the same opinion as you? [8>]
Back to the subject of Freedom of Speech, Can't we, non-JWs, have a right to that? or Is it that only you and only JWs have a right to that freedom?
said the two older "sisters" at my door not more than one hour ago.. a nice conversation ensued that left them not able to answer questions, and had them falling back to the tried and true 'hovah belief that "we have the truth" b.s.. i swear that i could actually see the mental blinders closing over their eyes as i explained things they did not know.
frustrating, yet very predictable.. they had the balls to say not to believe everything i read!
i ask them the same question about their religion.
TR,
GOOD JOB!
I love to be there live seeing you and them in that discussion.
Man, I bet they were really shaking when you brought up about the pedophile issue and the dateline show.
Their WT internet warnings were sending up red flags all over the place. "Do you get your info from the internet?" one "sis" asked. "Because you can't believe everything you read." Starting to sigh, I said, "when you go to a bookstore, do read the stuff you know to be garbage, or are you selective in what you choose? She said, "That's exactly what I do." I said, "Me too."LMAO!As I was getting into some real meaty discussions with these nice ladies, suddenly "we have to go, we have people waiting". "been there, done that," I said.

$$$there are worse things then not living forever, like not living the life you have.....$$$You have no idea what you saying.
Really? How do you know deddaisy has no idea what she is saying?
jesus christ said these telling words.
and he supplemented them by also saying that his followers would be persecuted as he was persecuted.
jesus's disciples were persecuted in the first century by a bitter wave of roman persecution.
People are lying about jws and exaggerating their flaws. And there are people in this place who show hatred of God by their actions.
Didn't we already talked about Freedom of Speech?
More likely, it is you and the rest of the JWs that is persecuting us, the non-JWs, because you only want yourself to be heard and you want us silent. Well, we are hearing what you're saying, but we are not agreeing with it. So, that constitutes persecution?
If we disagree with what you and the WatchTower Society say and we express our opinions to back up our disagreements, is that lying and showing hatred for God?
Pretty clear, your mindset is still:"JWs are the only ones who's never wrong." or "Live by the JWs way or else."

When non talks about persecution, he is not talking about people just criticizing the wts.
What kind of persecution are you talking about? So far, you haven't mentioned CRAP.

It could be.
Tell me how it could be persecution if I make criticism of the JWs and the WatchTower Society?
You also will render an account for how you used your freedom of speech. That will be between you and God.Buddy, I got news for you: You TOO will have to render an account for how you used your freedom of speech to God.

Non only cries foul when people lie about the Christian congregation and show hatred for God and his name. Non does not have a problem with legitimate criticisms of God's people.
If someone disagrees with the Watchtower Society, is that hating God?
Now, if someone criticizes the Watchtower Society, is that persecution?
Buddy, if you think speaking against JWs and WTs is persecution, you don't know CRAP about what persecution is about. Have you been thrown to jail for your beliefs? Has your KH being closed down by Police Order? Do you meet with other JWs in secret?
If I criticize you and the WTS, that's not persecution. That's Freedom of Speech and I have as much God-given right as you to express my views. How about this, why don't you allow your JW friends and relatives express critical opinions toward the WatchTower Society?
has been blacklisted......told by one of my jw friends on the other side of adelaide that that was said in his congregations public talk yesterday.. p.s.
anyone know what offspring song jw's were warned against listening to???
i vaguely remember it was on their 'smash' album (it's either the song that goes "..demons in my head.." or the one called genocide).
I wonder if Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd and Metallica are banned by the WTS?
