  i just saw the new wt is up and available.

  someone on here uploaded a low res version of the picture last year.. of course we all know why the picture was pulled in the first place........ george.

  The Greeks had a word for it, but the Watchtower didn't

  by Nathan Natas in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i recall as though it was only 60 years ago, sitting in the kingdom hall on those horrible chairs, learning of the four forms of love: agape, philia, storge and eros.. the watchtower never mentioned pragma.. pragma: this is a committed, compassionate love that often grows as two partners continue to cherish and care for each other.

  this type of love is associated with being together for a long time.

  in some cases, the passion of eros can grow into pragma over time, this forging a lasting bond.. i think i know why; the watchtower isn't into committed, compassionate, cherishing and caring, are they?.

  Age Appropriate Friends

  by Riley in

  2. friends

  we have a 25 year guy in our hall who is also a pioneer (which means he lives off his parents money), who likes to spend a lot of time with a 16 year old girl in the hall.

  it is usually in a group setting but he seems to gravitate toward her.

  he even has her auxilary pioneering , which is something i don't think any student trying to make the grades needs.

  so i went to a christmas evening candlelight service tonight and it hit me.

  i was primarily doing christmas since leaving the jw for the children.

  lots of people do it for family without really thinking of the relevance.

  by Sea Breeze in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  after stuydying jw's for over half a century, i haved concluded the following: .

  old light / new light is a primary doctrine of jehovah’s witneses.

  when they abandon on old prophecy or change a doctrine, they characterize this as “old light”.
