You know it's the Truth, because it attracts crazy people.

i wish i was kidding, but i have heard this idea suggested lately as a defense of the wts.

this is god's organization, even though it attracts crazy people, and because it attracts crazy people.

"unlettered and ordinary," et cetera.. i don't get it.

My Dad wants to study with me
by BlackWolf in
1. jw
2. friends
so my parents continue to pester me about getting baptized.

the other day my dad told me that i was old enough to make a decision, and was wondering why i wasn't ready (assembly is in a few weeks) so i told him calmly that i have many doubts and if i were to get baptized it has to be 100 percent my idea.

he was a little annoyed by this, and now wants to study the "is there a creator that cares about you" book (which is complete bs) with me.

Can you prove that our entire universe and existence is not a computer simulation?

if you were a computer programmer and you were to create a simulated automated world, that would constantly evolve and self run after initial designs.

first you would have to code the rules, laws, and core elements of this world.

while this is being coded, the program is not run yet, so none of it exists.

You wear tight pants and you will be in trouble
by wannaexit in
1. jw
2. friends
i was reading in another forum, that a letter to the elders instructed them to speak to anybody who persists in wearing tight pants.

if changes don't happen then the instructions are to disqualify him from being a publisher but it won't be announced to the congregation.

i am am curious to see if this letter will surface.

Reminder about how posting limits work
by Simon in
1. forum
2. announcements
because some people still seem to struggle with the concept.. posting limits suck for normal posters and in an ideal world we could do without them but they do serve some useful purpose:.

they limit the impact of any spammers inundating the site.. the prevent people with too much time and no self-filter from completely taking over and / or trying to use the forum as a live-chat system.. they are a useful throttle for anyone behaving badly (i.e.

where an outright banning would be inappropriate).. normal posting limits are very rigid in that when you hit them, the post that you possibly spent a long time working on is gone (unless you saved it first).
