  Pollution, the earth will die in 10-12 years.

  by void in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have been reading wt quotes etc, but i have not seen this issue raised.

  i dont have a big box of awakes to search through, but i distinctly remember the cover of an awake with a picture of the globe and factories producing smog.

  well the mag was about pollution; the core message/prophecy was that the world will mot be survivable in 10 -12 years so we can expect god to step in the next few years.

  What silly rules did your congregation make up?

  by weinermcgee in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  elders were famous for making up stupid rules with no bible base at all as an ego trip i guess, what were some of yours?

  i am not talking about the stupid rules that we all had to follow, just the congregation specific silly ones.. 1. having to button your jacket while on stage (this was later changed due to all the elders having a beer gut).

  2. suits only or no privledges.

  Do Must Dubs Have Pre-Marital Sex?

  by tall penguin in

  2. beliefs

  it's not often talked about but in my experience a lot of witnesses have sex (or something like it) during their courtship.

  and most of them never go to the elders about it.

  recent case in point: my dear friend got married this past summer.

  What's the most ridiculous thing you were ever counselled on?

  by micheal in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one of the cornerstones of jw's is counsel.

  they just love to give counsel and many times they will literally make things up just for the sake of counsel.

  i was once counselled for joking around too much.
