  Mark this! I have observed a summer trend of the Watchtower's "news releases" to exalt good ole "God's Kingdom" so that JW's appear as good ole boys & girls who come to your door to promote the generic Kingdom of God and in 15-20 years the whole 1914 generation Jesus enthronement to kingly power will be an apostate invention just like 1975.

  I agree, but I tend to doubt it will take 15-20 years. The jws seem to be "migrating" away from the whole 1914 thing since the change in the "generation" understanding in 1995. Another 10 years would put that at just over the 20 year mark, (and it would also be 2016!!!), They'd have to give it up by then.

  Hey - first time here

  by kimoko in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hello i am megan tis my first time here (hence the title :) ) so i just thought i would introduce myself.. i've never actually never been actually been a jehovahs witness but i first actually got introduced to it in january when i met the amazing kw13 haha :) since then ive looked at books, articles and had a wonderous time on the friday of the 2006 3 day jw convention .

  i'm trying to help karl get his mum out of the witnessing, hopefully we can get through its not gonna be easy but we are optimistic.

  its been a real difficult time for me trying to understand the witnessing because it went from 16 years of just knowning them as them people who bother you at your door to getting to know alot more and their "morals".

  A Beginners Guide To Apostacy

  2. friends

  this is something trev wrote the other day specially for our friend marion.

  she spent most yesterday with us, and shared our "apostadinner" which is what trev called it.

  she quite enjoyed the article, which is written in a somewhat tongue - in - cheek style, typical trev really.

  lately, i have even been questioning my beliefs in christ.

  lets face it the ransom just does not make sense.

  regardless of this, religion is soley a chronological and geographical entity.

  Any Dubs in your Hall that were puportedly "Demonized"?

  by Sailor Ripley in

  we had a whole family that moved into our congo when i was about 10. they had kids from 6 to 16-years-old.

  there was always talk of their beds spinning and shoes floating, et cetera.

  they lived in a literal shack so i didn't want to go there to spend the night, but i always wanted to go and "check it out" to see some fireworks.

  ***I'll bring all my Eagle's albums and my ELP, Brain Salad Surgery. Remember the Medusa/Predator-like chick once you folded open the tabs? ...oh and a couple of Styx albums and we'll be all set.***

  Based the the above, (and several other albums), I should have a house full of demons.

  the september, 2006 km is one of the most special and significant publications the society has released in a long, long time.

  well i'll tell you.. exhibit a: on page 1, the official announcement about the bethel layoffs.

  Sad to think about that, isn't it.

  ***One of the things about the WT writing is the rosy picture they paint of the past. A real look at history shows it to have been largely a mean and cruel time . Anybody mention the slave trade??***

  True that. It really isn't that hard for a THINKNIG person to see this. In many ways ways, we are much more enlightened today. Most people in the world, DO see what is wrong with terrorism. Most DID NOT see what was wrong with slave trade during its time.

  There's probably close to as many xjws, as jws. But, as was mentioned, most don't know the "truth about the Truth", so they could easily go back if circumstance calls for it. At least it is far easier to become educated now, (about the jws), than it was even just a few years ago. Sites such as JWD have made my exit much faster, and in a more complete way.

  It's a good thing, although probably not necessary. I would agree we probably know more than the average dub does about what's going on.
