The water tower society used to say that the light gets brighter and brighter in the last days as god illuminates us. I say the light is a strobe light and if you keep looking into it you will go mad!

What's Sacred, what's not?
by Frenchy inlet's put forth a question here that should provoke some interesting responses.
please feel free to give your thoughts on the matter inasmuch as that is the purpose of these boards.
we (jehovah's witnesses) do not accept blood transfusions on the principle that 'blood is sacred'.

Are there ONLY 2 options;
1.To remain Neutral and unhappy in serving
God through the WT prescribed way OR
2.To leave the Organization and heeping upon myself all the consequences of losing family,
and possibly to lose God's favor and be destroyed by Him?Just dont go to the meetings and dont talk to anybody about it. Become a clam.
The people back in the bible times didnt go to kingdom hall meetings. Abraham didnt go to the kingdom hall nor Moses, or Noah. Its a 20th century man made organization, a modification of the 7th day adventist.

Difficult moment in service
by Drew ini was out in service last week and a gentleman (mid 40s, i'd say) asked me about 1975. i answered that it was overzealous brothers, etc... he was very insistent with me and i ended up telling him that i would get back to him after speaking to an elder for further clarification.
have you guys ever encountered that?
i heard about a similar situation once but i am wondering what the best way to handle it is.

It was the organization. I was there I lived through it.

In order to run a religion you have to have some kind of ceremony. This is the water towers big event. Christmas, birthdays, St valentines day all rolled into one. Enjoy.

What I make out of that is that the Jews run this world.
Yea they run the world. And of course they are the source of all the worlds problems. Perhaps Hitler was right after all. They are the cancer that has to be cut out.
That's the problem with small minded people, blame your problems on some mythical boogie man.
The mythical boogie man is evil spirits demons angels and ghost, The tangible ,touchable, documentalbe fact of the matter is the Jews run this world. What you want to do with that fact is up to you. If you are full of hate or love ,ambivilent or reactionary. Dont shoot me Im only the messenger. Maybe your mind is too large to comprehend this.

The Jews don't have the economic strength of petroleum, nor the possibility to force the world's media to see "their side" of the question.I dont know where your going with all of this. I am not against the jews. I dont spend much time thinking about them. But in my country the United States the Jews pretty much control the media. They own it. I would guess if they own the media in the most powerful country in the world ,they can force the world to see anything they want. Before you tell me the jews dont control the media check out the link.

If you hang around a barber shop your liable to get a hair cut. If you hang around a bar your liable to have a drink. If you let the devil into your home your liable to dance with him.

Aposta-Mag!
by Kristofer inso i've pondered the idea of making a one-time publication like the awake!
magazine which educates the reader on jw doctrine, the brief history, false prophecy, biblical defense and an exposure of changing doctrines, cover-ups and lies.
it would include a list of website links to keep the mag brief and they could go to sites for more indepth research.

Somehow, though, I can't help but think of the immense satisfcation that would be had in knowing that every person a JW approached on field service had knowledge of the group and the tools to respond to them. I can imagine the hilarity of JW's running away from doorsteps with their hands flailing in the air thinking the entire neighborhood has gone Apostate!
Your thoughts?Everybody needs something to do to make their life interesting. If this is your hobby or avocation go for it. I doubt every person that a JW approaches will ever recieve your 1 time Awake deal as nothing has ever been marketed that well. And even if you gave everyone in a certain area your piece of litterature only a percentage would read it. This applies to anything. You can lead a horse to water but you cant make him drink. Those are my thoughts which you asked for. On a positive note. If that is your dream at the present time follow it and good luck. Shoot for the stars and end up on the moon.
