Apostate views?
by Richard C B inif a brother is starting to look at material on the internet and starts to have serious doubts about the jw organisation and questions the integrity of the governing body.
what steps would be taken to by the congregation to readjust his thinking.
and also if the congregation is not aware of this but he has confided in an individual how would that individual try to help such a brother?.

I believe partly it depends on so many variables, how far did he go? Who did he share it with? What did he say? What is his position to the elders?
Also some halls have elders that are insecure pricks who want to be super troopers and bust people for any and everything, others you have some actual decent brothers, who will do their due diligence but aren't looking to crucify anyone.
Steps they may offer to address his concerns, I was asked to write down questions, in fact I was approached last night by the COBE and asked if I had them yet. They may offer to have another study. I guess its like pornography, they want to know you have stopped looking and moved on lol, back to the business of advertising the publishing company and its kingdom

Mays JW TV Broadcast/Your feedback is appreciated
by ToesUp ini have a pretty good intuition but i have to admit i am going back and forth on the jw tv may broadcast.
i keep asking myself are they really in financial trouble (wishful thinking) or are they just grabbing for more money?.
i always appreciate reading everyone's thoughts and ideas on here.. let me know what you think.

Brother Carlin said it best...
“Religion has actually convinced people that there's an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever 'til the end of time!
But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He always needs money! He's all-powerful, all-perfect, all-knowing, and all-wise, somehow just can't handle money!” -

Since man is unable to create life does this mean
by Crazyguy indoes this mean possible a creator did or does exist.
there is plenty of evidence of a slow evolutionary changes over millions of years and i do not disagree with this.
but again that fact that mankind can not create a living creature from scratch mean there must be a creator?

is completely right, from a business perspective these "fiscal" things are all manufactured and controlled. Especially the org, think about it, the they are very much in control of the money they lay out, they dont HAVE to build halls really, if its going bankrupt them, also mortgages that can be used on property holdings could sustain them for some time, and lets not for get the float... yes... when you have gobs of millions and maybe even billions of dollars in transactions, you can reap pretty decent dollar amounts on interest off of floating those amounts, like a bank. Its a show.

Christ in You The Hope of Glory:Being Realized
by hopeofglory inthe mystery of the ages was revealed to the gentiles 2000 years ago.
the mystery is "christ in you, the hope of glory" (colossians 1:27).
the churches do not and never will teach this even though it was revealed to the gentiles.

is it more likely to be the men or women who leave first?
by sowhatnow ini was just pondering the other day, is it more likely that a man will leave a religion, or a woman?
is there a way to know if the men on the site outnumber the women or vice versa as to who found out ttat first and left.. im going to suggest men.
basically because men in general, do not like to be told what to do.
