Well, he seems to be a very honest guy. Let`s hope he sees reason before it`s too late.

car chase by elders at age 11
by ashtheflash inhello there i would like to tell a story that will shock you.
this is how it all started... my sister at 19 was planning to marry a brother into the kingdom hall, she was not yet baptized so she was trying to keep her marriage plans a secret.
a couple of weeks from her marriage the elders of the congretation found out and contacted my mother whom we were still living with.

Anyone like me where you still believe in MOST of their doctrines?
by inquirer inlike i don't like that un involvment, record keeping.
i don't know what to think about the paedophile stuff, because you could accuse the catholic church of that too.
but apart from those things i still believe that god's name is jehovah, his son is jesus, no trinity, and he died on a torture stake... i love reading the new world translation, i believe it's the best one, but i love reading other translations too!

JW young people...on the move...to where?
by Gill inmy experience as a jw teenager was total repression and control from my parents and i know that the majority of my friends at that age in the congregations suffered the same.. now...what's happening?!.
i come home and find a regular full time pioneer smooching with my non jw son on the sofa.. i"m reliably told that jw youngsters are in the local pub after each meeting and have to be thrown out at chuck out time.. they seem to behave in a far worse way that some non bible believing youngsters that i know.. are they finally feeling their feet and the wtbts due a huge exodus in the next few years?.
i'm slightly embarrassed at the behaviour of some of these youngsters when i'm told what they've been seen getting up to.. or am i just getting old?

My favorite is the much underrated (considering people's choice) "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn". Absolutely crazy! Then, DSM.

What WOULDN"T Jesus Do?
by Gerard inthe new testament encourages answering questions with other questions as a means of facilitating conversations.
so what better way to fully understand what jesus would do, than by inquiring what he wouldn't do?

Awake = college education?
by seattleniceguy inwe've all heard the jw claim that a lifetime spent reading the awake!
magazine is equivalent to a college education.
is this really true?
-
melmac
Well... I just hope no one decides that he/she is able to perform surgery just because "I've read about it in Awake! for many many years..."

The Bible Students as a Healthy Alternative
by jgnat in.
for some exiting jw's, they are "true believers" as far as some of the key doctrines of the wtbts are concerned, but they feel trapped in an organization that seems far removed from its original principles.. do you think the bible students are a relatively healthy alternative to the wts machine?.
-

How funny, the witnesses brag that any "schism" soon dies off... because it does not have "Jehoober's spirit"...

Beatles or Rolling Stones Fan, which were/are you?
by eyeslice inperhaps you have to be one of those who grew up in the 60's to really appreciate this thread, but then my kids love 60's music too.
who did you think were the best, the beatles or the rolling stones?
is there a bit of a psychological angle here too?
-
melmac
Beatles... But the stones come at second... then Led Zep...
BTW, who's counting the votes?
