  The Evidence that the truth is good for you!

  by JEMIMAH in

  a growing body of evidence suggests that being a jehovah's witness can be good medicine.

  new findings seem to emerge every other month: jehovah's witnesses live longer.

  prayer helps heart patients.

  Hi Jemimah! I see you got to the internet cafe. Im sorry to change the subject of this post but I knew you would be checking it frequently. Regarding the IBSA post you made a few weeks ago, Cath.-Evn.(ECT) union? Sorry to be cryptic, but you'll know instantly what I am talking about if I am on target. Take care, Dino

  education was strongly discouraged among the witnesses.

  i am curious as to how many of you went on for further education and in what fields.

  i will go ahead and list the ones i already know.. larc - advanced degrees in organizational psychology.

  Don't cooperate with their SHUNNING you!

  my dub sister planned this little event to see the lion king.

  she invited my two other sisters and their families and purposely left me out.

  when my family asked about me, she just shrugged her shoulders -- the little hypocrite couldn't "stumble" them by telling them she was shunning her own sister.

  Hi Bluesapphire! Well done my dear. You took away one of their most controlling weapons. You are truly courageous.You also were smart enough to do this where the JW's would have to act civil in front of the others. I have often wondered what would happen if a DF'd person were to wear a hidden camera for the benefit of a Dateline or other news program to a public meeting. TOTAL shunning is unscriptural. Thank you for sharing. Dino

  active and happy jw

  by scumgrief in

  2. friends

  i am an active jw and was raised as one.

  i have been watching the site for a while and thought it could benefit from the opinions of someone who is happily a member of the jw's.

  i will not get into any argumets that lead to nothing except name calling, and will not talk with anyone who is just plain mean (plenty of them in here).

  How Do We Respond to the WTS on the UN?

  oh hello, just little old me.. i want to talk about and ask a question about the watchtower's "spin" in the un fiascao.. based on my review of the case, there are 2 "spins" that need to be "counterspinned".. these wts "spins" that deserve responses are:.

  1) the watchtower did not keep this un "association" a secret and the leaders were not hiding anything.. 2) the watchtower used this "association" to help promote its educational and voluntary work through out the world.

  we only considered the support of the un charter in help our brothers get their religious freedom.

  Hi Hawk. I had a mole contact the society asking for an explanation of the UN mess. I should have proof monday/tuesday(letter from society), but initial indications are that the boys in Brooklyn are in this particular case saying that the "apostates" signed them up with the UN unbeknownst to the society! What a load of crap! I strongly suspect that they tailor responses to the tenor of the one writing. When I have proof we will need to compare various letters to show/prove duplicity. Once again, when I have proof, I will take steps to contact you personally to orchestrate things. Hang in there as this could get more interesting. Dino

  Hi Hawk. Im afraid that they have another spin as well. I hope to have proof in a few days. If what I think is true, then they will have sunk to an all time prevaricating low. I will keep in touch.

  What do you all think: > Anti-Global Capital...

  by Celtic in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as individuals, what do you think of the actions of the global anti-capitalism movement?

  do you think we could learn anything from them?

  do you think this community might learn anything about the ways in which they organise themselves?

  Hey Celtic. I take it this would be capitalists who are against globalization? This is the first time I have ever heard of an organised movement such as this. Please elaborate if you can. Meantime I will check google. Dino
