  The Hooks: Which One Did You Bite?

  by ezekiel3 in

  2. beliefs

  i have a theory that recruited jws (not those born into it) all have a specific reason why they converted.

  i also believe that it is still these "hooks" that keep them going - in the face of so many facts that prove jws are ridiculously wrong.

  for those who were raised a jw: was there a hook besides the negative "you will lose your life, family and friends?".

  one of my kids was looking up "codes" for a ps2 game on ign.com this afternoon.

  i was shocked when - after he entered the name of the game (the suffering) - an ad came up for this website:.

  Legal Eagles

  by link in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  various media reports indicate that the wbts often employs the services of a large number of lawyers and i have seen it suggested that some of the top legal minds amongst them are in fact jehovahs witnesses.. since a qualified and experienced lawyer will have been trained in the art of digging out and scrutinising factual information, how come these people are jw?s?

  if they applied their training, to the lest extent, to an examination of "the truth" (tm) it would quickly be seen as a load of bull puckey, even by a halfwit.

  it could not possibly stand up to proper scrutiny by a person trained and qualified in the legal profession.

  COMMENTS PLEASE ON YOUR INVESTMENT

  by seesthesky in

  i have read numerous posts throughout this forum.

  i want to get your opinions on why so many people here are so deeply invested in discussing these issues.

  i find it quite interesting because some dubs (on the fringe of dubland) and ex-dubs vigorously argue against wt doctrine while other dubs and ex-dubs vigorously argue against the existence of god.

  JW's and Pubs/Bars

  by Heatmiser in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have noticed on past threads from posters from other countries than the usa that they would be hanging out in pubs and such while still jw's.

  in the us i believe that going to bars would pretty much be a df/da offense.

  in other countries is the policy different?

  The End of this world

  by U.2.K. Tha Greate$t in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  alright alot of people say that the jehovah witness was going on preaching in the early 1900's about how the end was coming before soon and those who was born or living in the year 1918 would still be alive to see christ second coming(or coming and not be seen).

  i would'nt know nothing about that, cause i was'nt even born till 1981. but from my study's from the witness, they told me that sort of preaching was never going on.

  anyway the point to this post is, "we all know that nobody knows when the end of "this world" will come, the messiah made this clear and said only "god knows".

  Congratulations to the US!!!

  ... and to the iraqi people.

  a weight's been lifted from their shoulders; let's hope that resistance from the loyalists of the saddam reigeme will die down quickly.. whatever misgivings or concerns one might have about the information given out by governments prior to the invasion, i think the capture of saddam hussain is a fantastic achievment.. i think the world will be a safer place when the international community will act together to remove such signal threats to peace and when those who violate human rights and support inter-state aggression know they will be brought to justice, even if they are the head-of-state.

  Are most people just plain stupid?

  by logansrun in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  what an audacious question!

  " wow, bradley -- how could you stoop to such levels?

  do you consider most people as simple sleepwalkers through life not paying much attention to reason, logic, science, history and a desire to understand?

  DO YOU THINK E-WATCHMAN IS A JW OR A POSER?

  by manna in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i came across this site - http://e-watchman.com/ - it is the e-watchman, an alleged jw.

  i think e-watchman is using crude covert tactics to cause doubt in the minds of jws.

  eat manna - it's good for you man na
