  the fds said;.

  "the watchtower is not the instrument of any man or any set of men, nor is it published according to the whims of men.

  no man's opinion is expressed in the watchtower.

  Been visiting this site for a few weeks now and I must say it's really interesting and an eye opener to learn about the "truth" but the same old issues are mentioned time after time eg..........

  The WTS doesn't ever address this situation---all those folks that were DFed and never given an apology.

  All those who didn't get organ transplants because the WTS's "food from God" told them that it was cannibalism.

  All those couples that never had children because the "end was just around the corner" and they should be putting all the time they could in service peddling literature.

  All those that never went beyond a high school education because the WTS said it was a waste of time in this dying old system.

  All the older folks that never put away insurance or any kind of funds to see them through their golden years, because the WTS told them 30 years ago that they wouldn't NEED it.

  If it isn't the above being mention, its the "silent lambs" or "big business" or "the 1975" issue .......not wanting to play the SL one down but if as Sunspot says, the repetitive is ..........

  " ........only the tip of the iceberg!"

  Where is the rest of it.....................?

  Sorry Sunspot, not picking on you !! Just like to have something more substantial.

  SIlver Ring Thing in the UK - doomed to failure

  by Abaddon in

  1. jw

  i've seen coverage of this band of celibates before.

  they're one of the groups spearheading abstinance-based sex 'education' in the usa.. despite not one shred of proof that it works in reducing teen pregnancy or std infection rates, this is the flavour of the month under the bush administration.. in tv coverage i heard one of the councillers telling teenagers that condoms could not prevent the transmission of virus particles.

  if the abstinance-based idea is such a good thing, i wonder why they have to misinform people?.

  Abad..

  sorry to disagree but the principle of what they're doing is good, ..............(speaking as a father of a 20 year old girl).

  I'm against the Christianity bit but it's about time somebody stuck up !!!!! for defending virginity, nobody has to bend to peer pressure, it should be a matter of choice. Kids have too much pushed into their faces on the TV about how cool and mature it is to sleep around etc. Its good that they see another view point,

  Maybe the way that this "Christian" group is doing it is more of a problem....charging £10 per ring !....and tee shirts on sale etc.................nice work if you can get it.

  ......................woops just read all those innuendo'es......oh well ...how many can you spot?

  Just As A Matter Of Curiosity..........

  by hillary_step in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  just as a matter of curiosity i was wondering if any of you know of anybody who has read raymond franz' 'crisis of conscience' and who actually remained a jw?

  i have sent and lent this book to a number of people within the wts, even a co, all of whom left eventually.

  one person remained due to domestic issues, but resigned from all his duties and remains as such.

  An average Americans view of the French people

  by Maverick in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i have just returned from spending a week in the company of frenchbabyface, (fbf) and would like to share some basic observation that i feel will enlighten my fellow countrymen and women about a people we, as a culture, actually know very little about.

  i do believe the medias of both countries do not show their people an honest and forthright view of the other countries people.

  the american media gives us almost no news of france and most of what we do get is not very positive.

  I totally agree .....the Pink Panther series made famous by Peter Sellers was a real classic.

  The funny thing was he was ripping the French ............................You little minky!

  Its was actually a British made classic.
