  Does England Need The Royals?

  by Englishman in

  there's lot's of reasons why we need a monarchy.

  here's 1 reason, outlined by peter hitchens:.

  uniquely in all the world, monarchy stands for liberty...the british form of monarchy is preferable to most forms of republics.

  would the internet have been banned ouright from the beginning?

  it seems like they have been trying to reign in control of jw's use of the internet for the last few years but pandora's box has already been opened.

  if they had just banned it from the beginning many dubs would have been afraid that if they went on the ineternet they would immediately be possesed by demons.

(I'm sure the org would have started a few urban myths to back the legend up)

  BTW=by the way The new Zelda is a completely new game its the sequel to Wind Waker like i said it wont come out until the holidays, i dont recommend 4 swords unless you have 2 gameboys lying around cause the game is designed to work best with gameboys as controllers.

  i just posted this on another thread, but wanted to make sure everyone sees it.

  btw, i had to make the decision along with my siblings to disconnect my mother from life support.

  there is a point where it is better to let your loved one slip away, i think.

  Should I "picket" the JW assembly with my "apostate" friends or not?

  by booker-t in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  every year since i da'ed myself i have two good friends that are ex-jws that beg me to come and "picket'' the jw assemblies with them.

  i have turn them down every year but i kind of think i want to do it because my reasoning is that if i picket i will finally be telling jw's and the wts that i am not afraid of them.

  i didn't realize how much "fear" the wts puts into its members until the other day when i ran into my jw sister at the supermarket and she literally left her 1/2 full shopping cart and ran out of the store without speaking to me.

  the problem with picketing is that like others have said you only reinforce what they have been taught about JW's. I think the subtle approach might work better. Although I tell you what if you just held up a big sign with just the URL of this site or freeminds.org it would be only human nature for a good % (even if only 10%) to look at it out of curiosity, especially studies and fence sitters.

  I know how you feel, I have a sister who has been out for a few years and i just recently told her about this board because of fear of how she would react, but i had to take the chance because i'm worried about her mental state and i figured this site might help her with her guilt and self-loathing.

  cool article. do the JW's still use the creation/evolution book, or have they phased it out yet. i know there was plenty of questionable science in it.
