My wife saw an article on the Scientology stuff going on and said that that religion is gone, there is trouble with it all all religion will soon be gone....now why is it when another faith has problems there are comments like that, but when the JWs have a problem it is all chalked up to persecution pointing to them as the true faith.......just wondering?

I told my wife I will start pioneering next month ...
by Albert Einstein in... if she will prove me from the bible accuracy of 1914. and i stressed i really mean it.. we had one of the usual evening discussions and this was the result.. she said she is not ready for this and must do some preparation and aditional study (which is funny for somebody raised up in a hard-core jw family, baptized over 25 years, who spent over a decade in regular pioneering, reads wt for hours every week and have brought several people into jw cult...).
but ok, she pulled out several publications and is doing her preparation now and tonight we will have the discussion.. to motivate her i told her:.
1) if you will be succesfull i will go to preach to everybody in our street about 1914/607 during my pioneering.

I am sure your good lady will be able to prove it to you, just like the different Elders and Dubs I have asked to prove the special choosing by Jesus of the FDS in 1919.
I asked an elder from my wife's congo this question and he has not called me or spoken to me since.....I must be labeled.....not sure.

The WT society and Jehovah's Witnesses basically try to change the real definitions of words to accomodate their false predictions. And why do they do this ? Because they want to control their followers. Even by deception. They don't care if they lie or not- they just want control. Peace out, Mr. Flipper
The need to do this to cover their a## when they make a false prophecy.....

One of the fallacies here is we assume that a run of the mill JW will really process what these changes mean....come on, those who are true in the organization just accept whatever the GB throws there way. If one takes the time to CRITICALLY THINK about most any of the newer doctrines, one can poke holes in them, but when one has their desire to critically think taken away, one will just 'get in line'.

Will Michael Jacksons Mom be DF'd ???
by tresdecu injackson family to host first christmasmichael jackson's family is to hold christmas celebrations for the first time this year (09) - putting their own religious beliefs aside for the superstar's three children.. the jacksons were all brought up as jehovah's witnesses, a christian-based religion which does not recognise birthdays or christmas.
but the thriller hitmaker deviated from his family's belief system and always enjoyed the holiday season with prince michael, 12, paris, 11, and seven-year-old prince michael ii.
and family matriarch katherine jackson, who has full custody of the kids, is determined to put their former traditions aside in december (09) to keep the youngsters' lives as normal as possible.

Purps, you are so correct, the loss of a child or a parent is never an easy thing.....and Michael was still quite young.
