  i read this forum alot.

  though i don't post very often, i thought i would share the following thoughts.

  my mother is 70, and lives alone (my parents separated and divorced about 23 years ago).

  I think that the organization is all some people have. And though I am loathed to admitt, in cases like your mom's it might be better to leave her in the bubble than burst it.

  So on that note I would probably leave her be. As long as she is still associating with you and you guys enjoy a good relationship, it may not be worth it to disrupt the peace. But I am a little upset at how your sisters are making her chose like this. Maybe you could talk to them (if they'll listen for a minute) and let them know that you are not trying to make her leave the truth and that you just love your mom and want a relationship with her just like they have one.

  Can religion really overcome racial tensions.

  by earthtone in

  in my experience it seems that although religion is suppose to unite all races, it rarely does, as in the case of jehovah's witnesses.. jw's are always talking about how they go serve where the need is great often among individual of a different nationality to help there "brothers and sisters".

  they orchastrate international conventions to prove how much they love the" friends" regardless of their race.

  they pride themself's on following the counsel of act 10:34,35 where it states:"for a certainty i perceive that god is not partial, but in every nation the man that fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.

  . JWs are as bad, but probably no worse than the rest of them. I think.

  Right and probably no better.

  while walking down the street one day a u.s. senator is tragically hit by a truck and dies.

  his soul arrives in heaven and is met by st. peter at the entrance.

  i want to be in heaven," says the senator.

  If they were a witness, it was cool.

  If they were worldly then that was when she brought it up. And it wasn't just mother. Someone else posted that their family went to service where the need was great and then moved again to serve some place else. Came to find out if was because their parent did not want them dating one of the "local brother". So I was just commenting on how I don't think JW's are as tolerant as they seem. And most certainly I'm not saying all are like my mom.

  And I was not saying that JW's throw around racial slurs... that was more or less for drama.
