Bingo. I think that applies to a lot here. I too was 'Baptised' at 15...bullied/expected/emotionally blackmailed etc, not MY choice. 'Dubism' is about pleasing others and not ourselves! Welcome

Dub Neighbor

by Farkel in

i have a neighbor who is a dub.

she is elderly and bound to a wheelchair.

i haven't told her i was once braindead, too.

Furthermore, my two neighbors who helped her out have known her for years and before her "episode" have always referred to her as a sweet, kind old lady.

Ah...old school. For years she (and many like her) believe that the only 'good peeps' in this Wicked World are 'potential-dubs'..? OR is she 'angry' because Satan is very cunning (a Catholic in her midst on 'pretence' of doing good deeds)...

It never fails to amaze me that senior (in years) dubs have to rely on 'Worldlies' for any practical help. Are the dubs waiting for the 'New System' till they help each other to harvest/build/bury Worldlies and loot their homes..?

Other Religions use the Name JEHOVAH too

by UnDisfellowshipped in

are jehovah's witnesses really the only religion that promotes and preaches the name of jehovah?.

jw's are always claiming that they are the only religion that preaches and uses the name jehovah, and that is why only they will be saved.

for example, look at this quote from the watchtower:.

In fact, if the Catholic Church 'registers' the name 'Jehovah (as it could prove the source of the name), could it sue the WT every time they used the name...? Lol

Jehovah=A 14th century Translation Mistake,made by a Catholic Monk..

You know what I was thinking (always dangerous, lol), that as 'Jehovah' was invented by a Catholic monk (wasn't it originally for a poem..?) and Catholics believe in Trinity, isn't 'Jehovah' actually somehow a combination of the Divine name (YHWH) and Jesus..?

It was the Catholics that inserted the name into a few places into the Bible after YHWH was removed?

Morning Snowbird...11.36am here (England)...on my fourth coffee, lol.

I see the light underneath the door and hear stirrings from my little JW daughter's bedroom.

She's getting ready for field service.

She must get ready really early...
