  JW's have 237 totally spurious verses in the new testament, just where they changed Lord and God to Jehober.....

  Even if they where right in putting the name in these places it's still obviously a lot less important than before. Down from 7000 times in the hebrew scriptures..

  If it wasn't for "....................." I'd still be in the "Truth".......

  for me i think if it wasn't for the fact i'm gay, i'd still be an active witness.

  this year, even my mum has said that it wouldn't be "appropriate" if i was to go to the memorial.

  now the memorial is something i've never missed, so that kind of stings a bit.

  Thanks!

  Looks like a pretty good movie. They have obviously had some help from ex-dubs making the movie i piched up some phrases thay only insiders are familiar whith. They have made one mistake though -- one of the elders wears a beard.

  But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner--not even to eat with such a person.
  1Cr 5:12

  When a person is DF'ed he is no longer "named a brother". A guess he could be treated like any worldly(tm) person then...

  for me, it was not being able to prove that people were going to be resurrected to earth... i'm still not sure of the answer, but for some reason that just started this huge, fast snowball of different things that i couldn't prove... .

  this lightbulb just went off in my head... .

  The generation thing in 1995 made the snowball start rolling. I read it in a worldly paper before i read it in WT. It WT they called they called the new understanding an "ADJUSTMENT" . A very very unhonest name for a change of paradigma.
