Is it ethical to have children?

by joey jojo in

this was a news article recently in an australian newspaper that caught my eye.. the premise was that to have a child is to inflict an extra human being onto the world and also, to inflict the world (with all its problems) onto the child.. there is a lot to say about this but from jw point of view, i have always believed it to be incredibly hypocritical that jw's have children in 'this system'.

all my life at the meeting i heard how little time we have left, how sick the world is, how i was probably going to be persecuted and end up in a jail cell for being a jw.

why would anyone want to become parents in this situation, particularly if they are confident there is only 'a short time left'?.

back in the late '60's / early 70's there was a very high expectation of armageddon coming very soon--like 1975. i got married at 20--in 1968. most of the young dubs around my age were getting married too. most of them had kids within the first few years of getting married. so much for them really believing the hype.

i wonder how many of the current crop of teens / twenties dubs really believe we are in the last days ? i think--none.

armageddon is just wishful thinking of the generation before me--those with 9 toes in the coffin. give it a few years and i wouldnt be surprised if the watchtower--or j-worg or whatever it rebrands itself--quietly drops the whole armageddon thing...just like they are with the blood nonsense.

An elder with only one testicle

i happen to be one of very few people who know of this condition that the man has.

he had an accident several years ago with some power equipment.

leviticus 21:20 commands that no man present the bread at the temple with damaged testicles... so?.

Going back to my first marriage..to a born in...after our 3rd kid I offered to have a vasectomy..but she wouldn't even discuss it. As far as she was concerned..birth control was my responsibility..and she was quite content with withdrawal. But no vasectomy.? In case she decided to have more kids. Isn't 3 enough ?

This was the woman who divorced me soon after...and now shuns our oldest disfellowshipped son and has never seen her grandchild. Some women are ideal watchtower material.

I feel like I am going crazy at times ...

by CovertsadJW in

good evening , .

i feel like i am going crazy - it’s so hard not being able to talk to the ones i love about how i really feel - meaning the “ truth “ is a big lie and a big waste of time.

it’s so weird - i can’t talk to my wife , or kids about how i really feel and it’s causing me probalms that i recognize.

$5.5 Million to be transferred to World Wide Work from Assembly Hall fund

by Sour Grapes in

a letter was read tonight in our kingdom hall that the money that the circuits in the indianapolis area had in savings to build a new assembly hall will now be transferred to the www to build kingdom halls in lands where they are needed and a new assembly hall for us will not be built.. we had a beautiful assembly hall near downtown indy that was paid for.

it was sold a couple of years ago.

we were promised a new assembly hall to be built in southern ohio near the indiana border but they can kiss that goodbye now.

The Dark-Skinned Early Briton.

by fulltimestudent in

jw
friends

i'm sure many others noted in yesterday's news feeds, that scientists deciphering the dna of the skeleton remains of a man thought to have died some 10,000 years ago in the south of england, have presented him as:.

as blue-eyed (now that's quite english) but as dark skinned.

and, that's not very english, to the horror of many.. (link: https://news.nationalgeographic.com/2018/02/ancient-face-cheddar-man-reconstructed-dna-spd/ ).

The book burning has started

by pale.emperor in

don't know if this is a global thing but i've just been told by a pimo member of my old congregation that a min servant has been given the task of destroying all old books/literature in the kh library prior to 1992.. could be the elders (or even one of them) on a mission to stamp out dissent as my ex-wife used the same reasoning to her elder dad that i used in my jc: rutherfords books containing failed predictions.. anyone else heared anything?.

the ms who's been given the task is a company man.

no hope of him keeping them or selling them on ebay.. they have some russell books in that library too.

dear Bobby 2446

if you are still visiting this website, it is an APOSTATE site. youre not supposed to visit these kind of sites: if your elders find out you would get into serious trouble. if you have any doubts about this--just enter your real names and congregation here----and see what happens.

Medical Explination Found For "Demonic Posession"

by pale.emperor in

in 2007, doctors discovered an illness that is suspected of being an underlying cause of the historical accounts of demonic possession: anti-nmda receptor encephalitis.. it's caused by an attack on the immune system.

symptoms include:.

agitation, paranoia, psychosis, and violent behaviors, seizures and bizarre movements, mostly of the lips and mouth, but also including pedaling motions with the legs or hand movements resembling playing a piano.

my dear old dad believed in demons. he used to like to repeat stories he'd heard off others who had heard......

my dad was a very clever man--an electrical engineer. designed electrical diagrams for huge industrial applications.

he died 2 years ago--at 95. i think in his last few years he was having doubts about a lot of the watchtower nonsense.
