  Jehova's Witnesses and Dating

  by SoManyQuestions in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there's this really great girl i know, and she is so perfect for me, except for the fact that she's a jehova's witness and i'm not.

  she says that she can't date outside the religion.

  i'm pretty sure that jehova's witnesses are a branch of "mainstream christianity" (meaning they just basically follow the bible, not have a different interpretation like like mormons).

  i know that the answer is yes, but it would help me to hear your sentiments on this.

  .

  after you decided that the wbts, and thus jw's were not god's chosen earthly organization did you feel like you wanted to leave and forget god altogether?.

  The Blood Issue

  by dutyfree in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have a question about the infamous blood issue, which i am sure will be very easy for some people to answer.. in the bible, niv, nwt, kj or whatever, the line, '...you should abstain from blood...' is taken literally by the witnesses and they do not take into account other scriptures whilst reading it.. what other scriptures are there in the bible to support the theory that the writer's intended meaning was not to take it literally?

  so, in other words, i have argued with jws that it means to not drink blood as there were no iv needles around then to inject the blood into the veins.

  but are there any other scriptures to back this up?.

  Minority Texts?

  by Camay05 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there are other extant greek texts which are referred to as the 'minority texts' simply because they represent only about 5% of existing manuscripts.

  another 5% are neutral texts: sometimes agreeing with the majority and at others with the minority.

  the 'minority texts' are also known as the alexandrian texts because they were produced in alexandria in egypt.

  My God, What HAVE I done?

  by TR in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i copied my reply from the "can you confirm this wt quote" thread because i wanted to highlight the need to be careful when talking to jw relatives.. it all started out as a joke for my jw brother.

  for 7 years, since i left the wts, i've kept silent about what i've found out about the wts to prevent my losing contact with him and his family.. i sent him an email the other day jokingly wondering if he was going to stop preaching since the 20th century is over, included in the email was the wt quote from 1-1-89. he emailed me back, saying that he looked it up and it said "our generation".

  i replied by saying that the quote was changed because of the screw up.
