Do JW Children Still Call Adults "Aunt" and "Uncle"?

by cofty in

when i was young we were taught to refer to other adult jws as aunt or uncle.. was this also the case in other countries and does it still happen?.

was it just a custom or has the literature ever commented on it?.

thanks.

Cookiemaster,

Did you ever go door to door at Dracula's house? Did he ask for a bible study? (Just being humorous)

I have never heard of this in my life, this may apply to redneck country in parts of the States where people are all related.

yes, you heard right.. as you know, most christian organizations publish and distribute little tracts with their gospel message.

well they also make some that expose the lies of the wt, and explain how it is a cult.

even if people are not interested in the "gospel message" in these tracts, the tracts do a good job exposing the wt as a cult.. now, those of you who are now agnostic or athiests or just non-religious, please keep reading, to understand what i plan to do.... i am expecting to receive $$ for christmas.

I see you are still under that horrible spell, it seems you need to get a life. Why waist your time doing what people hated us for in the first place. Go golfing, fishing, something. Don't be bitter, forget about it all.

God's supposedly chosen earthly organization (WTS/JWS) doesn't pronounce or spell god's name correctly !!!

by Finkelstein in

this came up on terry walstrom thread topic recently and i thought it would be good to explore this further.

the jws are quite boisterous and arrogant that they use the proper name of jehovah as the divine name of god.

but a little investigation discovers something quite different.

Miles

So if I understand right, you are not to mention the name of God at all?

JEHOVAH A Partial / Selective GOD

by smiddy in

jehovah only dealt with a patriarchal family after adam sinned .he then only turned his attention to the 12 tribes of what was to become the nation of israel .. apparently he did not give two hoots about the rest of mankind outside of this small group of people compared to the rest of humanity.. 4000 years later he declares his love for the world and had his son sacrificed , setting up a system ( christianity ) starting off with jews and then allowing gentiles to enter., again neglecting the rest of humanity / nations on the earth , leaving them to their own desires.. during the first 4000 years he spent a helluva lot of time and energy trying to convince the jews he was almighty god .. performing miracles ,raising the dead ,slaughtering opponents with angelic intervention ,committing genocide on israels behalf ,etc.etc.

you know the drill.. no such effort was made trying to convince other nations or blessing them for their achievements advancing civilization , they were left to their own device , no direction ,no help , or instruction was given to them whatsoever .

and nothing has changed this past 2000 years , it started out as a small group who by "divine providence" were to be called " christian" according to the bible , and again he is only acting on behalf of this group , neglecting all other nations who now cover most of this earth.. so my question is : if jehovah really did love the "world" humanity , why did he not act in behalf of all humanity instead of singling out a minority group of people 6000 years ago and continuing on with that policy till today ?.

The idea that man was created perfect and God is perfect does not make sense; if Eve was really perfect she would of never sinned in the first place because she would of been perfect, lol. It's all boloney.
