  Did you ever see or experience prejudice in the religion?

  by free2beme in

  besides the strong hatred of woman, that we know the witness religion teaches, did you ever see black bothers ignored in their attempt to reach out to be ms or elders?

  did you ever see latinos treated different because of how the local community viewed them?

  i know the watchtower teaches that this does not happen, but i actually experienced an event with a black brother that was a friend, that bothered me when i was in the religion.

  according to genesis maternal impression affects the unborn.. .

  yes, genesis 30: 37 - 39 says that goats gave birth to speckled young because they had looked at speckled bark whilst copulating:

  "jacob took fresh-cut branches from poplar, almond and plane trees and made white stripes on them by peeling the bark and exposing the whiter inner wood of the branches.

  Intelligent Design and Real World Nastiness

  by TD in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the concept of intelligent design in every form that ive run across contains as a basic premise, the benevolence of the "intelligence" behind the design.

  please dont misunderstand; i'm not faulting proponents of id for this.

  any other id scenario involving a supreme being is frankly too depressing to contemplate.

  Lies, Damn Lies, and "Experiences"

  once, discussing the recently passed circuit assembly.

  he had interviewed a young pioneer that was able to pioneer without a car.

  she "arranged her schedule" (translation: bummed rides well in advance) to make sure she had a way to and from the hall.

  The Privilege of Handling the Microphones

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one of the most unbelievable privileges that a brother could have was being a microphone handler.

  elders would discuss brothers for hours and see whether or not we would allow them to mow the lawn or handle a mike.

  i always felt that these brothers were doing us a favor but if they didn't get a minimum of 10 hours in per month, they were dog crap and couldn't have any privileges.
