Friends are studying with the JW's

by LouBelle in

i was studying spanish a little while ago - had to stop because of finances but became friends with the spanish teacher and we keep in touch, see each other now and again.

i just got a message from him:.

"hola louise, i would like to talk to you about 2 things, about the jws, as we are following this fatih, we find it interesting, we haven't been baptised yet, i want to make sure before making a mistake and the other thing that allan and i wold like to talk about is starting your own business.....".

I forgot! One of the things that is important to everybody EXCEPT JW's, education and extracurricular school or sport activities. If these people are educated and have children, they need to know this is MORE than discouraged. They may not be expelled, but they and their children could be marked and shunned for participating in sports, music, theater...anything and everything that could interfere with "theocratic activities."

That would be a deal breaker for most people in these modern times. If they are in disbelief, they should watch the youtubes out there with the GB going off on education.

I would try to find out what is drawing them to the JW's and address that. If appropriate, I would tell anyone through my studies you find falsehoods/untruths, changes, coverups in all religions. What matters is what they do about it. And most important, as a baptized JW, for whatever reason, if they question or change their mind about anything, they will be shunned and expelled. Friends will be required to ignore you and treat you like you are dead, just because you question. Ask if that is a reasonable, healthy way to live?

Good luck.

by cofty in

today is the anniversary of the death of douglas adams.. adams was one of the most insightful skeptical thinkers and the author of the fantastic series, "the hitchhiker's guide the galaxy - a trilogy in four parts".. professor dawkins said on his death "science has lost a friend, literature has lost a luminary, the mountain gorilla and the black rhino have lost a gallant defender.".
