......and I like Nancy's idea - could also add an agony cloumn in the back of the mag, and a crossword, wordsearch AND the TV programmes so the Congregation can see what they're missing.

Name ways in which the Watchtower could make JW life more "appealing"?
by JH in.
jw meetings are so dull, and so alike, that one can only become bored in no time.
what changes would you have made in the meetings or after the meetings to make jw life more appealing and still christian?

I put that badly - what I want to know is how do the JW explain celebrating Nisan 14 in March, when it appears to be a month later in April?

Hmmm - yes, something I've never questioned before is the actual date - but I have just consulted TWO Jewish calendars, and both state that Nisan 14 falls on April 23rd. Can anyone explain the discrepency to me? Many thanks.

I think I have mentioned before, this will be my third year of non-attendance. I intend to ''celebrate'' at home for the first time - when I mentioned this to a JW though, I was informed that Jesus (I think) stressed the importance of not isolating ourselves but to be united in a ''Congregation''. <sigh> - I just can't win.........

What if "the end" happens in 2150?
by JustTickledPink injust a question.... what if the wts came out with a for sure prediction based on new light that without a doubt armeggedon will be here in 2150?
well, that means that our generation will all die, but we can hope for a resurrection and we have to continue to preach and our grandchildren or great-grandchildren might actually be the ones to walk through the "end" into their "new system"
the question is how many jw's would there be?
-

2150? not a point - not in MY or OUR (collective) lifetimes, so we're guaranteed a resurrection...

ok, door to door question.......
by freedom96 ini am always teasing my wife about having a "country club" upbringing as a witness.. in the hall i grew up in, and those i attended for a few years after turning 18, were pretty hard core.
i tease her about how easy she had it.
which, in my mind was clearly the case, but that is another story.. this case involves going out in service.. in my halls, you went out almost regardless of weather.

Thank you so much for the warm welcome!
by TooOpinionated inthe beginning of the end for me was when i questioned the elders on the child abuse policy-i honestly could not believe the 2 witness rule would apply that that particular situation.
i knew our congregation had alleged cases of child molestation from years past, but the perp in question was disfellowshipped.
all of a sudden, after about 13 years, she wants to come back.

Brilliant post! - and welcome
I even had one elder's wife come to my house and ask me why I cared so much-"it didn't happen to YOUR kids." GRRRRR!
WHAT AN ARSE!!
