jw's now have the january awake!
in hand.
notice that there is no specific date, for the awake!
Oh no, YET ANOTHER ARTICLE ABOUT "WHAT THE FUTURE WILL BRING" it just goes to show, that the WTS can only REGURGITATE the same MINDNUMBING CRAP, OVER and OVER, WHAT A WASTE OF PAPER, THE POOR TREES, WASTED ON THIS STUPIDITY!!!!
AAARRRGGGHHHHHH!!!!! I'm so glad I don't read them anymore, I wish there was a way to actually put these to good use.

what questions should a study ask before joining the jw org?
The meeting was interesting thanks for inviting me, there's just one thing before I join, can you come to my house and review with me the JW history and all the beliefs you guys have held? There's this great website called "quotes" that has quotes from JW literature, there's no derrogatory comments against your religion just actual facts, once we review everything on there, and you answer all my questions I will be glad to continue on with the study.

this should be interesting
Nothing, since I don't believe in him as Creator, he was just some storm mountain god, that had a consort, but to the CREATOR I would say, I look forward to finally meeting you, thank you for having created such a beautiful planet and for all the wonderful things in it and for the life I was able to live here, now I want to see the rest!

for those outside nyc that stands for down under the manhattan bridge overpass.
it's an up and coming area in which the society pulled building permits for 4 twenty story residence buildings with a connecting atrium and underground parking.
the permits were pulled last year about this time (much to the annoyance of the locals) and when inquiries were made of local bethelites the word on the street became "the governing body hasn't decided whether or not to go through with the project.
Hey FeelinSketchy I'm originally from NY too, Welcome to the DB, nice to have you here, interesting information, I had heard about the DUMBO project before, and also wondered where they were getting the money to build that, since they are sooooo financially strapped right now that the R & F have to pay for the CO's insurance and all .
I hope more R & F find out about this and stop donating their money to this Borg!
Maybe the WTS lawyers have figured the CRAP out and are blackmailing them, and those apartment buildings really belong to the lawyers.......I know, I know....... but who doesn't love a good conspiracy theory?..... Besides I can dream can't I?

please send letters to stephen bates requesting an article on this issue.
many of you may not see immediately how important this matter is.
beyond the other legal ramifications, i.e, the wts lying about secular info., intentional deception, etc., the blood issue is a huge one.
I personally know a few dear freinds who died because of the WTS Blood BS, the first one was in the late 70's he was about 12 years old, he got Leukemia and died from not getting a transfusion his family and the congregation was very proud that he died faithful, it was very sad. The second was a freind who was in my KH he was around 19 he also got Leukemia and also died because of refusing a blood transfusion, it was very sad to see this very gentle and kind person waste away and die in the prime of his life, all because of some dumb religion.
Then there's my freinds mom who died recently also from Leukemia, she also refused blood and died, at least she got to live, have kids and see them grow up, the others were not so fortunate.
I think we should start a thread and post how many of us know people that died because of this erroneous teaching, it would be interesting to see the numbers at the end.
About this Eduardo Esq. character, I don't know, I too have always wondered about him, he sounds like he could be on the WTS payroll . He said that if the blood policy was changed he would probably go back, after all the WTS dirty laundry that's been aired out here I don't see how he could say that, something just doesn't seem right about him. Sorry Eduardo, I hope I'm wrong about you.

instead of highjacking an earlier thread on young ones getting baptized, i thought i'd just start a new one and ask our favourite dub lurker why his faith practices infant baptism.
and defd, if you feel that a 7 or 8 or even 12 year old isn't an infant with regards to making major decisions, i would like to hear your explanation.

I think that the WTS continually tells the parents that they should be instructing their children in the "Truth" "Crap" so they will become baptised members ASAP, most of the parents think, that if their children get baptized early this will serve as a protection for them when they reach their teenage years, since they will have already made this vow with Jehovah the WTS.
The reality of course is that these parents are really setting their children up for massive stress and trauma when their hormones kick in, indulge in sexual behavior, and are ultimately faced with losing all their freinds and family when they are df'd. I am so glad that I found out the Truth about the "Truth" now, before my two kids got baptized. I remember in 2004 we were talking to them about becoming approved publishers so that they could get ready to get baptized, I'm so glad this never happened.
My kids are free and very happy now, we all believe in a creator, but no longer believe in the BS that is organized religion, they no longer worry about Persecution (the little one nightmares about this, he worried that they would take us away from him), Tribulation, or the damned Armaggedon, yes life is truly wonderful now that we are beyond all this WTS CRAP!
I feel sorry for the kids in my KH many of them have gotten baptized and are younger than 14, it's sad, really SAD!

glen never came back after his last vacation.
however, the sign read closed until 9pm.
the waitress caught us on our way out the door.
Fairchild, I loved that! Very interesting, please don't stop now, I want to read the rest of it! The scary thing is that this is probably the way it would really be, if they had their way.

in line with ritchie rich's thread where abad points out that the wts has an ongoing editing policy for the littermanure.. they have heavily edited the bound volumes as opposed to the original ragazines.
they even got rid of kingdumb melodies from the song book, because their composer turned away.
ditto the aid book.. has anyone noticed if they remove people from old photos who are no longer approved?
Sorry, I should have edited that!

WOW they never cease to amaze me! I always thought that this was some beautiful sister from NY or something, I have always seen some of my freinds pictures in the WTS literature and was always told that they always told that they use the BRETHREN for these illustrations, damn yet another lie!
I hope that magazine they stole the picture from finds out!
