  Latest Watchtower study... Still discouraging higher education!!!

  by Doubtfully Yours in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  one of the paragraphs read that 'if in the area where you live you need higher education after you graduate, then the young person must speak with the parents in order to help them balance the schedule so that he/she doesn't neglect spiritual things'.

  alright, i thought, that's a somewhat balanced point of view; i thought, good they're coming along with the times we live in.

  yeah, right!!!

  Are we too hard on INDIVIDUAL JW's?

  by outbutnotdown in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i am definitely no longer a jw (11 years).

  that having been said, living in a "democratic" land, the one thing that is challenging is agreeing with freedom of religion, but also protesting when it becomes offensive.

  don't get me wrong..... my family shuns me completely and i do think that it is "offensive", and against the laws of nature, which makes the point even more legitimate...... : do they really know what they are doing?

  When is it ok to have sex?

  by Obviously Secret in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i always get different answers when i ask this question, or i get answers that contradict with the people givin the answer.

  i ask this to various forums online and they all end up saying, when your ready and you know the conciquences.

  however, that obviously doesn't work much or isn't the truth when so many little kids are getting pregnant and aids are everywhere and everything else.. so seriously.

  so here i am thinking, meditating if you will, on my biblical upbringing; then i came to the conclusion..... it's all about who you know!

  even in biblical times.

  does money talk in the cong?

  by little1 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the jw i dated had lots of money and seemed to take the religion pretty much a la carte.

  when it was to his advantage he'd play the religion card, but he seemed to get away with a lot.

  by that i mean he owned and flew an ultralight, spent lots of time at the airport with non jws, slept with me (although they didn't know that), traveled to europe 2x to take his non jw mom to france, spends a lot of time visiting his mom in fl.

  The good way to be a Jehovahs Witness

  by ball. in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  did anyone know witness families who were seemingly able to juggle getting a good education and career while maintaining good standing and even high positions in the congregation.

  while from the platform, encouraging ones to pioneer from school (like i did), they themselves would be leading a completely acceptable double life, encouraging their children in their careers.

  some people were better at that kind of double life than others.
