  Ewart Chitty

  by NoAbuse in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ewart chitty was appointed as secretary-treasurer , which position he held until his appointment to the governing body in november 1974.. when in brooklyn, chitty seems to have preferred younger men as roommates.

  the actual charge brought to the gb against chitty was made by a former roommate and involved some sort of inappropriate conduct.

  the gb concluded that chitty had homosexual tendencies, and asked him to resign.. a rare photo of chitty in happier days.

  i was seeing a jw man for about a year and a half until l broke it off with him last week.

  we met on a dating site.

  he shouldn’t have been on there, of course, but he was lonely.

  PROVE IT!

  that’s my attitude toward anyone making an assertion.

  i’m sick of people saying such and such is true simply because we are saying it.

  i would think that those here would agree because we all have been jehovah’s witnesses.

  i think a lot of dubs who were born in--or came in at an early age with parents ( i did ) have the belief that it must be the true religion--because we are in it. which i suppose is fair enough--after all--who would remain a member of a religion that they believed was false ?

  How Much of the WT Teaching Did You Believe?

  by Ding in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  some people on this forum have said that they never really believed any aspect of wt teaching, that they couldn't wait to get free of it all.. others seems to have been really gung ho, believing it all until something happened that got you questioning "the truth.".

  i would say my own high water mark was about 50%, which put me squarely on the fence, trying to decide if i should be in or out.. how about you?.

  i grew up in the cult--never thought twice about it--till i was married and about to become a dad. i quickly faced the fact i had no belief in a god--hence everything else fell apart and i didnt want to waste any more of my life as a religious freak.

  Would you be OK with someone removing "Jesus'" name from the New Testament?

  by Wonderment in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  would it be all-right with you if a translator removes "jesus'" name completely from the new testament and replaces it with a substitute, like "master" throughout?.

  i was looking at the world health org.

  report and it shows the us ranks 37th in the world (tied with albania) for combined male/female life expectancy.

  the top 5 were japan, switzerland, singapore, israel and spain, all around 83 years.
