i can't believe it.
i've actually had two studies with my sister from that book.
yesterday, she told me i was being argumentative.
homeschool,
I really appreciate your posting these thoughts and I like your logic on the not eating meat......I had asked my wife one time why the folks in the JW books are shown clothed when in 'paradise earth'.......once restored to a paradise won't clothing be unnecessary??

Thanks Lukewarm, guess the blood discussion is done!
I would guess you are referring to what my wife calls her 'personal bible study', these seem to be generally done at the home of the target convert.
I think part of this is to make it the most convenient as they can, for my wife this is I feel her attraction, someone is willing to come to see her, at her house to teach (gag) her.

Thanks....much appreciated....again!
since i'm still suffering in this crackerjacks organization, these are some of statements that just drive me nuts.
1. in service: "we are not here to convert you" funny how jws have the true religion but resort to deception and outright lies in order to get people to listen
2. to other jws: "we won't have to deal with this in the new system" 7 billion evil doers dead and gone, no longer create problems for us
My wife when I asked her about me not being a JW.....her response.
You are a smart man, you will figure it out.
just wanted to say hello to all here.
i really don't have much of a story to tell about myself.
just find myself at a crossroads of sorts and wondering if i should stay or move on, although the greater part is telling me to move on.. long story short, i have been a baptised jw for 14 years.
Hi Girlie, welcome to the board, there is so much you can do if you are yourself.
The arbitrary rules of a group of men sitting on the East River waterfront in Brooklyn will get you nowhere. Reach out and up!

what a difference that would have made to my life.
Thanks Mouthy...very interesting!

The article on JWfacts has reference to the WTs that discuss generation definition changes.
pensioner enters jehovah's witness church with machine gunpublished: 31 jul 09 09:13 cet.
an 82-year-old man who entered a meeting of jehovahs witnesses armed with a submachine gun, three magazines, a samurai sword and a knife has been arrested, bielefeld police reported on friday.. some 81 members of the church were gathered in their kingdom hall on dunlopstrae in the citys sennestadt district when a congregation member noticed the masked elderly man enter the vestibule waving the machine gun around 8:45 pm on thursday.. .
the witness quietly informed the congregation and directed them to escape the building via emergency exit, a police statement said.. .
because of the Society's policy on shunning family members----that it helps expose this rotten policy/doctrine and the effects it can have on family members.
The policy that is so heinous that if you look at books such as bible teach or any of the more public things, shunning is not mentioned at all..
Shunning, even moreso than blood is the policy that needs to change if the WTS wants to be thought of as something other than a cult.
this year's drama was based on the parable of the prodigal son.
the theme was "your brother was dead and came to life".
as some have probably heard, it is a modern day story based on that parable, so there are no fancy costumes or fake beards.. .
MJ, did you see it online or did you attend the assembly??
Wife is coming off the post assembly high right now....but the study sister was on a week vacation, so now she is back and I am sure that she will fire up the wife again for a bit.
