  TOP TEN SIGNS THAT YOU ARE AN UNQUESTIONING JEHOVAH'S WITNESS

  by nicolaou in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  10- you vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of your god - jehovah.. .

  9- you feel insulted and 'dehumanized' when scientists say that people evolved from lesser life forms, but you have no problem with the biblical claim that we were created from dirt.. .

  8- you laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in multidues of demons, angels, cherubs etc.. .

  What's your favorite classical music?

  by DanTheMan in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  of course beethoven's fifth is tops for me, and the ninth close behind.

  also sprach zarathustra - strauss.

  fanfare for the common man - aaron copeland (what a nice thing that was for him to dedicate such a great piece of music to plebeians like me *sniff*).

  The Unwritten JW Law

  by Fe2O3Girl in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it is clear that there is no scriptural basis for disapproving of facial hair, coloured shirts or women wearing trousers at meetings or while preaching.

  some of these rules seem to be regionally variable, but i think the rules on women's clothing are the same everywhere.. my question is - has there ever been any specific comments on any of these type of rules in any watchtower publication, ever?

  and if not, how do we all know the rules?.

  In 70 words or less - Tell one person the 'truth about the Truth'...

  by AK - Jeff in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  without use of profanity, vulgarity, or sarcasm.

  tell this hypothetical person who is still a dyed in the wool witness clearly why he/she should leave.

  do it in such a way that he/she will not bolt for the door screaming "get behind me satan" - in other words, use tact to anti-witness.. jeff
