If someone says they worship Satan

by free2beme in

do you think they are doing this because they truly love the satan character and want to please him or do you think they do it for complete shock value.

to basically do something that makes what is defined as good in society (christian religion) angry that someone would do something so wrong.

personally, i do not think there is one satanist out their who truly thinks that they are worshiping a being that is real, or actually something that could benefit from their worship.

i'm in a relationship now and its my first serious one.

she keeps telling me that she's scared because she believes i'll eventually get bored with her and start wondering how it feels like with other women.

so she wants me to hook up with other girls when she goes out of the country for the fall semester.. personally i dont want to, but this is making me wonder, in the average person's first ,serious relationship, whats the cause of the breakup?

its interesting how the wts tries to give marital advice via unqualified elders.

recently a friend of mine and his spouse have been having martial trouble.

he no longer believes the wts lies and maintains a low profile.

It’s interesting how the WTS tries to give marital advice via unqualified elders. Recently a friend of mine and his spouse have been having martial trouble. He no longer believes the WTS lies and maintains a low profile. His wife insists that without “the truth” their marriage is going to fail. At the request of his wife a couple of Elders (aka unless pecker heads) paid them a visit and pretty much tried to make him feel guilty about not going to meetings and supporting his wife in “the truth”. Without expressing his feeling about the WTS he kindly listened. It’s upsetting that my friend provides a GREAT home for his family (very nice house, vacations, loving toward his wife which does not work and pioneers, does not drink, smoke, or cures) and the Elders are trying to tell him he is no good because he does not go to meetings and he is setting up his marriage for failure. I believe the WTS contributes to marriages breaking up as a result of “Elders” giving bad material advise. Why can’t they leave people alone???????

elders take time off of work to go out on service during the week, ms's that want to be elders kiss butt to the co. taking the co and his wife out to lunch become a competition.

CO's are just company men to make sure the rank and file are kept in line. JW's are two-faced, once the CO left, people went back to being themselves.

talk # 13: shepherd the flock of god in your care, part 1 - brother bethel-coot.

synopsis: jesus told peter to feed his little sheep, so elders should shepherd the flock.

elders should be sincerely concerned for flock, approachable.

I’m really bothered that the WTS is so negative on education. I guess they don’t want you to think. It’s a shame how many people in the “Truth” are so bitter because they did not have the option to go to college. Granted, college is not for everyone. I know many success people that new went to college and are very happy but, they had a choice. WTS should not be taking this choice away from anybody.
