Remind them that Jesus wasn't baptised until he was 30.
What's the rush?

Should I get babtized?
by BlackWolf ini know this sounds like a ridiculous question but i was talking with my mom in the car today and of course we got on the topic of getting babtized again.
she told me that jehovah holds me accountable for my sins regardless of wether i am babtized or not so i have no reason to be holding back because it won't change anything.
my parents are the type of super strict jw who will shun you just for not being a witness.

This Website Was Mentioned By The Governing Body
by JW_Rogue inokay, so at the "imitate their faith" ca there was a special speaker from the gb.
and he started discussing psalms 1:1 and how we today could "sit in the seat of scoffers".
he then mentioned that many bros. and sisters criticize the org and think they are so smart by researching online.

Where the criticism is due, I don't see the problem.......
Oh, I forgot,....
When it comes to the WT whore-ganization, it's STFU and just do what we tell you to do!!!!!

Who is the oldest GB member?
by StarTrekAngel induring the talk delivered by stephen lett in our last assembly, he talked about brothers who serve despite their frail health.
he said "one of the gb members, whom i work with every day, is 80 years old and has been a diabetic for the last 30".. give a peak into how well they are tended to and how someone that age would not dare to let go of the power that keeps him alive..

Looking back,"That was crazy, moment"
by MarkofCane ini got baptized later in life.
i was around 21, i had left and went out into the world should of listen to my gut back then, but instead i disowned myself and came back into the fold.
before i could get baptized, the elder who studied with me said i needed to get rid of everything that was contaminated by this world: music, books & clothing,everything.

My m-i-l went through all of her home products and threw away everything that had the Proctor and Gamble symbol on it.
My wife disposed of a small statute she bought during a neighbors garage sale after she bought it home and did a little research on it. I don't think she found anything of substance about the statue but she threw it away just in case.
A bunch of superstitious nonsense......

Good idea or bad idea?
by stephanie61092 infirst and foremost, thank you so much to so many of you who have reached out to me over the past few days since my post on sunday.
i'm not totally in the best mental state, however, i do have a very small amount of people that i can lean on for support.
i relayed my feelings to a friend (my only friend, really), who took the initiative to inform my family.

Leaving Quietly outlines the procedure pretty well.
I just couldn't imagine jumping through that many hoops to be accepted anywhere.
guess that's the introvert in me.....

My boyfriend is thinking of becoming reinstated
by gypsyvine ini'm not really sure where to post this.. i've been with my boyfriend for 4 months now and i've really never been happier.
i was brought up in the church of christ with an elder father and i really believe in my religion, although i will admit to being a lousy christian at times due to sheer laziness (not wanting to get out of bed on sunday).
my boyfriend essentially lives with me.

Oh, by the way, best not tell him you've visited this site - a big fat No No for JWs and people who love them.
Or better yet, since you all are so cool together and your are firm in your resolve to not be recruited by them, tell them, especially his mom.
Her reaction will tell you everything you need to know.

I think you're going to hear a lot of people tell you here that you should run for your life......and at a time when you think you're far enough away from him run some more.
Do you really want to subject yourself for some undeterminant time to being someone's secret side-piece because they can't man-up to mommy?
Don't you think you deserve better?
