  A suggestion for discrediting the Society

  by RunningMan in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in this forum, we often wonder what we can do to make the society look bad.

  we come up with ideas like picketing assemblies, mail campaigns, legal action, and many others.

  although these ideas are laudable and i would not want to discourage anyone, they sometimes create sympathy for the witnesses, and make us look bitter and fanatical.

  I would not invite an apostate into my home, unless of course
  it was a life and death situation.

  I tend to think that most on this board are not apostates, for
  example MavMan, and Fred Hall. Like I stated before, I will
  avoid those that seem to have an agenda, as I am a newbie, I am
  still learning. So I will not be associating with them. However,
  I wouldnt consider news articles about the Society "dangerous material". And I have found a number of links on this site with
  great news articles.

  sidenote:
  on another thread you mentioned someting about flame wars:
  This is not the only board I am a member of. And I dont think nyt had a copyright on the statement "flamewars"

  My initial visit to this site was of course what
  every JW has done, type Jehovahs Witness in Yahoo!

  I know there is alot of bad infromation out there.
  I hope to help clear some of this up.

  I am not looking to battle anybody.
  I do not see any advantage to this.

  I am sure however sooner or letter I will
  get involved in discussion that will go to far.

  I think it is important to gain insight from everybody.
  I will try and avoid those that seem to have an "agenda"
  of hatred towards those who still serve Jehovah. From
  what I have read, there are many on this board who were
  simply no longer happy with the answers that JW's were giving
  them. Fair enough. I would think that I would be welcome on this
  board, considering there are quite a few questions about the
  org. and the ones that can offer a different viewpoint are those
  that are still in it.

  I am not sure what you are implying by Mr. Hyde.

  I am glad you like my pic.

  Jimmy Walker has always been a hero.

  I see you changed your signature again.

  I can understand your caution, after all this is the
  internet and you can never be to careful. Whomever
  you think I am, it seems like he/she left quite an impression
  on you. No need to apologize for being cautious.

  ldh:

  I am not sure what I said to warrant your wanting to
  burn me with "fire". If I said anything unknowingly I apologize.
  If however you said that just to be "mean". Than that is
  another thread altogether. Do you always change your
  signatures after a post?

  yeah right.

  I guess if you consider 1 to 2 weeks old,
  than I am old.

  Have I done something that makes you want
  to imply I am a liar?

  As I am new semi new to this board. Are most here
  consumed with making the Society look bad? It would
  seem to be a refusal to move on. It would in fact be
  just as the Society has said of "tearing down"
  and never "building up".

  I am a current and active JW.

  There is nothing wrong with cremation.
  However, you must take into account the
  view of the community.

  As many in the U.S. know, the S.F. couple was convicted of
  murder for the killer dogs they had.

  There are also rumors that the couple was involved
  sexually, with the two dogs.

  Do you think it started with heavy petting?

  Remember your Young People Ask articles mentioning heavy petting?

  The Society is right again.

  i've heard of responses from so many people all over the world offering their sympathy.

  i've looked all over for a reaction of the governing body.

  have they reacted in any kind of way offering their sympathy or condolences?

  Remember A.I. ?

  2. entertainment

  i know we talked about it when it was playing in the theaters, but i'm too lazy to look up that thread and i think it was in the main forum anyway.

  i just got the dvd and watched half of it.

  if you haven't seen it it's definitely worth renting.

  It was probably one of the worst movies I have
  ever seen. People in the theater I was at
  lauged at the ending. I believe it had 4 different endings,
  but it never ended.
