  Jehovah's Witness! Nothing but a period in the world novel.

  often, more so then not, my former witness friends have the habit of wondering why more people do not hear or know about things witnesses do in modern history.

  yet in time, from being on boards like this one and from knowing far more people that are not witnesses, then ones that are or were.

  the crazy acts of the early 1900's that gained public attention, were replaced with a more invisable conformed organization that really does very little to be noticed.

  I agree free2berne Jehovah's Witness are invisible and are not "a part of this world"...and the fact that you brought this point still mystifies you? Way to go Balaam...

  That is true, anyone who does tell a parent to stop loving their children is insane, whoever, she chose to stop talking to you, she chose to tell you that if you and you children are going to die at armaggeddon she might as well get used to it. It sounds to me like your made a lot of choices. You mentioned that your disfellowshipped, ask your self, why were you disfellowshipped?, and were in the bible does it say that what I did was wrong?, Did I know how this would effect Jehovah or my mom and did I care?. Also as for your personal tragedies, they seem to be based on the choices in you made, yet you blame your mom, this evil organization ect...Really it's tiresome.

  WILL MY CHILDREN DIE ??

  by dontnowat2believe in

  i was driving in my brothers car with him about 5 years ago (hes now an elder), we were in the middle of a row when he turned to me and told me that when i die at armageddon that i dont need to worry because he said he will look after my kids, this upset me to the point that i made him stop the car and i got out.

  a friend of mine (who is a jw) i spoke to about it told me that he was just trying to be cruel and then went on to tell me that any children who are a part of a witness family would die at armageddon.

  i would like to know if anyone knows if this true ?

  I can think of more unethical things that other religions have have affected children:

  If you are not a "Christian" your going to burn in hell (for eternity non the less)...

  The "Children's Crusades"

  Kristnact (excuse my German spelling)...

  The Inqusition and Reformation

  The abortion of millions of children, both by religion and secular authority.

  My suggestion, Read you copy of the bible and fiqure it out for yourself...

  to all my very patient friends out there thank for your support here.

  over many threads i have argued and posted on what various indivdual versus in the bible say.

  to put it all together i decided to create it's own topic thread so it could be referred back to in the future.

  How about this:

  Romans 1:26 & 27

  That is why God gave them up to disgraceful sexual appetites, for both their females changed the natural use of themselves into the contrary to nature; and likewise even the males left the natural use of the female and became violently inflamed in their lust toward one another, males with males, working what is obscene and receiveing in themselves the full recompense, which was due for their error.

  Plus the interpertation of the "males lying with males as the would with a female" was a great work of fiction, however it would not be consistant with the rest of the text before and after that scripture...

  Hey X,

  I glad that you came to this website, first of all, It was very important to here what the others had to say,but the truth of the matter is this is what Jehovah's organization offers:

  1). Who is: Jehovah, Jesus?

  2). The answer to "why do I exist?"

  3). Why does God allow suffering?

  4). Is there hope for mankind?

  5). Why are so many people against Jehovah's Witness'?

  6). What is "paradise?"...

  Those who become Jehovah's Witness' can leave at any time, dispite what is said here, were not a Cult and were certainly not dangerous.

  Were are not brain washed (I should know, I actually learned brain washing techniques in the military, both passive and active).

  We have, however and unfortunately made some "non inspired" (by non inspired, I mean none of those who made those predictions said "The Lord told them or Jehovah told them to tell you", predictions as to when the end of the world was to come), However if you read Pastor Chuck Smiths "The End Times" pages 35 & 36, he predicted the end would come in 2006, also LUTHERN, BABTIST, CATHOLICS & the various ADVENTIST groups have also done the same.

  Remember, it's all about choices and taking full responsibility for them.
