At the Assembly... Did you catch that talk about encouraging young ones to pursue a career in the ministry? ...and what about that 'murmuring'

by garyneal in

yes, i heard that talk where apparently (in my wife's circuit that is) there are 5 times as many pioneers over 50 or 60 than there are amongst the younger people.

there was also 3 or 4 times as many elders and ms's amongst the elderly than there are amongst young people.

the message, parents, friends, encourage your young ones to pursue an education and a career in the ministry.

i've been lurking here since late last year...was very hesitant to join the forum because of fear that satan would control my pc.... .

i'm born in, but always had my little doubts about "the truth" since i was young, but went ahead and got baptized ect.... .

i stumbled upon this site while looking for a km and initially thought it was a jw forum, but after seeing some of the titles of various threads, i thought to myself "i'm on an apostate website".

Facebook and employment interviews

listening to this in the news got me infuriated!.

there is a growing trend that employment interviewers are asking for facebook profile with login password.. they are looking into everything you post.. there is no law in the books to prevent this!.

even though i'm self employed, i think this goes beyond what's required of hirees!.

well, looks like we need the ACLU and the Government to put this invasion of privacy theft on the books!

I heard this on the News, so it must be getting attention

the problem with this is that people interviewing for jobs are vulnerable for employment, so I'm sure they will agree to it

An illustration regarding instructions from the WTBS

reading flipper's thread about the gb providing instructions sparked this illustration in my head.. .

you're driving down a winding mountain road, eager to get to your destination (let's call it life).

you pick up a passanger who says he knows the way but there is a dangerous spot that he will have to quide you through.

In love with a JW...

by CuriousUK in

apologies if this has been discussed before, or is in the wrong forum, but i could really do with some advice.

two years ago i met the love of my life; someone i regard as my soulmate.

he is an active jw and i am a practising church of england person.

DaCheech

ooooooooh yeah james, they justify it by claiming that "children" drink milk, and "adults" eat meat!

so they won't tell a newbie all the hard truth, because they can't swallow it!

welcome, and good job researching the stuff before you made a grave error!

let me tell you a little about myself:

I wasn't born in this religion, but the buggers got to my mommy and I grew up most of my life in this religion.

I got married to a JW female, as all other options were out of the question.

after quite a few happy years and kids, I realized 8-9 years ago that it was a sham!

failed prophecies, elders' lion-like personalities, dishonesty, crooks in the congo getting away with murder (business dealings with other brothers)....... and etc....

I have since told my wife of doubts and lies ( now she's pretty libreral, and let's me get away with doing non-witness things with her if you get the hint ). She has told me that If I keep my doubts secret, everything is OK......... but if I get DF'd or leave the witlesses --> she will leave me!

quite a bit to loose on my side? my kids? not even seeing them get married?

I say: Run, you seem like finding others is not problematic?

see ya!
