  l was wondering if others have noticed this or is just my imagination?my sister whom has always been a fine example of a dub just got married to an outsider was a shock to everyone as no one knew she was dating an outsider.she seems happy.the elders are to shit scared of her to approach her about the matter.

  Since 2/3 of the witnesses are females who do they have in the congregation to marry? In any case, pity the outsider.

  Shane, I once did a sticker program after I was booted out. The sticker said "No Jehovah's Witnesses" and was intended to be put on doorways at people's houses. It flopped.

  I went door to door trying to get people to take them but I had no success. I even went to a Pentecostal church and waited for their services to be over. The people there told me they actually wanted JWs to visit their houses so they could preach to them.

  That could be pretty dangerous if there are cameras inside and outside the Kingdom Hall. Also, disposable hero of hypocrisy's idea is better in my opinion.

  hi all.. so i got a txt today from a very proud mum claiming that, the jw cart produced 300 book and magazine placements.

  mostly from foreign speakers.. the shard is the tallest building in the uk.

  this is where the cart was placed.. not a bad day they had really.

  ...6000 pieces of literature distributed, less than 10 each. I person was reported to have asked for a study.

  Let's see. 6,000 pieces of literature at 10 cents each (?) for printing costs comes out to $600 per bible study.

  Evolution is a Fact #32 - Sexual Selection

  by cofty in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  when i was a telecom engineer there was a particular transistor that we would routinely change on any circuit board we were working on.

  it suffered from a condition known as thermal runaway.

  a drop in resistance across the collector-base junction caused a rise in current that generated heat which reduces resistance in semiconductors which increases the current even more, creating more heat and so on until the transistor self-destructed.. (for geeks - this is why field-effect transistors became the choice for amps).

  If death is a natural occurrence in the human species, why are we born with the innate feeling to continue living indefinitely?

  by Tenacious in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  there are some people that do in fact want to die.

  these people include the mentally unstable, emotionally imbalanced, and those suffering from ailments or diseases, just to name a few.. i've never met however, anyone, or heard of anyone, who is of sound mind, who just awoke one day and thought it would be an excellent day to die......naturally.. your thoughts?.

  All animals are afraid of death or tries to preserve themselves.

  All animals are intensely afraid of predators but not because they can foresee death; they don't have the consciousness to do so. It is only human consciousness that can foresee death not only by predators but into the future. Animals don't see into the future like we do.

  Why is it ok for witnesses to go to Church backed hospitals?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if witnesses should "get out of babylon the great" then why is it ok to go into hospitals that have been set up, and have funding from churches?.

  isnt that a little contradictory or hypocritical?.

  CNN: The 80's

  by Simon in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  i've really enjoyed the cnn series on the 60's and 70's - they give you more of the "feel" of how things progressed in each decade than just the raw facts while still providing interesting and entertaining views of history.

  each episode typically focuses on development of one aspect such as tv, music or politics and of course includes important world events.. starting on thursday is the next series, this time covering the 80's.

  now it's catching up with things i can really remember well directly.. the trailer shows the huge tv event of the decade if not all time - who shot jr. yes kids, who shot mr burns was just a copy of it i'm afraid.. it was broadcast in the uk on tuesday evening.

  How many times have the GB been wrong?

  by atomant in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  actually its quite amusing to observe the different reactions from within the org every time theres new light.how dumb does a person have to be to not realize its all a conjob.surely a thinking logical person would question all the changes over the years.lts almost like the blind leading the blind scenario.

  The number of contradictions and lies that the Watchtower makes has no impact on the regular JW who's been in for an average of 10 to 20 years since the age of reason.

  What counts is a combination of curiosity and a sense of integrity. Without integrity curiosity amounts to nothing since the person's fears (of shunning) predominate.
