  WTS Official Spin on monthly Awake: 'More emphasis on the Bible!'

  by Neo in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the march 2005 kingdom ministry brings up a full article about the awake only being published once a month, starting january 2006. .

  but the fun thing is the roundabout way this change is announced.

  knowing that the news would be a bitter pill to swallow (there should be a 'speeding up' of the preaching work, not a downsizing), the watchtower only announces the move to monthly publishing by the end of the article.

  Are ex-jw's or "apostates" addicted to jw-bashing?

  by booker-t in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this might seem like a funny question to ask but my mom told me that "apostates" are addicted to jw-bashing and cannot let it go and have a life.

  i asked her what she meant by this statement and she told me that all ex-jw's talk about is the wts and jw's and negative things about the jw's.

  she said that we get up thinking about jw-bashing and go to sleep thinking about jw-bashing just like a drug addict.

  Does he have some kind of medical condition? Is there treatment or surgery for his condition? Are there charities I can donate to?

  was it not jehovah?s promise to never kill humans again by means of massive floods?

  i guess knocking on 100,000 deaths is just a minor slip-up.

  knowing the response of jw's to the horrible situation in asia and their reasoning of it, makes me feel indescribably sick in the stomach!

  WITNESS MENTALITY TOWARDS THE TSUNAMI DISASTER

  by Mary in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i feel like screaming right about now...........the dickhead who takes our bookstudy group just came over and said "...i wonder how many brothers and sisters died in the tsunami disater.

  " while that's a natural concern, his next comment blew me away "....it figures that the media hasn't bothered mentioning jehovah's witnesses helping out in this disaster!

  " i looked at him stunned for a minute and said "and why on earth would they mention jehovah's witnesses?

  Asian tragedy: not the "end of the world"...

  by observador in

  1. social
  2. current

  ... as i am sure some jws will spin it.

  as i told my mother once, exagerating a little, they love when tragedies like these happen, as these seem to validate the beliefs they hold so dear.

  as tragic and sad as these events in asia are, it's not any signs of times; it's a natural ocurrence that humankind has to learn and prepare to.

  Why do they say tragedies like the tidal wave are horrible when they openly hope and pray for something a hundred times worse?

  Do you believe Mary was a virgin?

  by JustTickledPink in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my catholic friend and i were talking the other night about the virgin mary.

  she doesn't even believe that she was a virgin and she doesn't believe in the immaculate conception.

  if you think about it logically today, if you had a fiance that went to visit relatives for a few months and then came back pregnant and told you it was god's child, would you believe it?
