  Ray Franz---A Man We Owe Our Thanks To

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've been thinking of how all of our lives have changed from learning about this religion and getting out.

  probably no one has done more to help us understand the truth about "the truth" than raymond franz.

  of course there were others that questioned dates, prophecies and dogma but it was ray franz that revolutionized the organization.

  Reasoning Book -- Online Version

  by adelmaal in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  anyone know if i can get an online electronic version of the reasoning book?

  i really need to get ahold of it to be able to show my daughter what jws believe.

  sometimes when i explain to her a jw belief she is dumfounded and does not grasp that they actually believe what i am telling her.

  When you see a JW or two on the street, do you ignore them or speak tothem?

  by Rod P in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  most of the time i just walk on by.

  i just can't be bothered, and they are not going to believe what i say anyway.

  besides, should i tell them i am disfellowshipped, which may scare them away?

  Pray to Jesus to God or Both? (Not Just Yet Another Trinity Thread...)

  by adelmaal in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i just read another post that touched upon praying directly to jesus and it reminded me of the other day at church.

  i don't know if it's just my jw roots or what but one of the men who said the prayer in church prayed directly to jesus.

  he kept using jesus' name in prayer speaking directly to him on our behalf, he brought out that no other name is higher than that of jesus and when he closed he did so in the name of jesus.

  I don't know how to ask this ?

  by boy@crossroads in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  ok so anyway i have been fading for a little over a year now.

  during that time i have been primarily focusing on improving my social skills: reconnecting with old high school pals, trying to make sense of the world, trying to connect with others, opening myself up to new belief systems, activities.

  now that i am becoming more comfortable around people i am considering pursuing a relationship with someone.
