i was reading some comments on randy's site, and lately i've been noticing a trend - a majority of jws can't spell.

here's an example: what a nut case!

first a bit of background about this poster... married, 2kids, 12 year old and 15 month old, wife and i inactive for about 4 years and spotty at meetings at best for various reasons.i've had doubts ever since 95 and the generation thing, and my wife, well she's always had some resentment from the truf being drilled into her when she was growing up.

however i put off deciding what to do about the future of my own spirituality (and my family's) till recently when i got tired of feeling guilty about not following an outline for the only way to be a good person.

also my wifey wanted to know what the hell we were doing so she wouldn't feel like a fence sitter.

i've read the bible and i don't recall satan himself actually ever doing anything evil or harmful... however i read many accounts where god killed or tormented countless thousands of people for arbitrary reasons.. aside from prophecies where jehover says that satan will hurt people in the future (hasn't happened yet, and no sign that it will happen), can anyone cite an example in the bible where satan actually harmed anyone?.

When will non-annointed men serve on the Governing Body?
by logansrun in
1. jw

the society has many doctrines and practices which are plainly wrong.

nonetheless, little dogma is, from an organizational standpoint, in serious need of change -- except one.

for the society to continue any form of credibility with it's followers it will have to change it's understanding of who can lead the organization, in other words, who can become members of the governing body.

Anyone interested in cyber sex?
by RubyTuesday in

now that i have your attention.

with the total anonymity available on-line, is it truly cheating, to flirt with, tease, or even "have sex" with someone via your computer?

is this the same as actually committing adultery, or is it just generally "harmless" fun?
