  What is God???

  by BlackSwan of Memphis in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  is god just a ball of energy hanging around?.

  is god a spirit person as the jw's suggest?.

  ok, so i realize that there are a large number of atheists here, of which group i am ever so slowly counting myself among, who would love to shout down the topic with 'there is no god".

  Is the Higher/ Further Education still enemy number one?

  i went to university without any problems in the cong.

  two others in my hall went and no one made a public complaint.

  i was interviewed age 15 on the platform by my dad (elder) about whether i would pioneer when i left school or not.

  Did anyone else wonder why?

  by Jerohobobonadad in

  1. jw

  i always thought that if you want to do 6 or 60 hours a month in field service, why make a big fanfare about it and become a pioneer or whatever?

  i always thought if you want to go out loads, then go out loads; why do you need a group of "elders" to approve of it and make an announcement?

  i've read about a few on this board who got turned down for pioneering.

  Question for JW believers...or whoever wants to answer

  by kittyeatzjdubs in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i often wondered this myself a lot growing up, and i must know.... if there was no paradise hope, no promise of living forever or having your dead loved ones resurrected....would you still serve your god and follow the organization?

  would you have ever began studying with the witnesses for that matter or stayed in the ''truth'' if you were raised in it?.

  because isn't that the golden ticket that jw's wave in front of their studies or interested ones?

  Judicial committee experiences.

  by Zico in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  recently ive been doing a lot of research on judicial committees, as my friend is currently going through one, as mentioned here: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/118972/1.ashx

  i just posted an update.

  one thing ive noticed in my research, is that there is no scriptural support to back up the judicial committee system.

  Why I write...

  by Jerohobobonadad in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  .

  hello all, been lurking a few weeks, decided to post..... i am mid 20's, male, unbaptised, 3rd generation, elder family etc.

  a number of years ago, in the name of intellectual honesty, i decided to research religions to make an informed choice before being baptised as a jw.... there was not enough time (and i was too uninterested) to look at other religions seriously, so i figured if jw is the "truth" then it should be able to stand any criticism.. is it just me or is it all a load of old bollocks?!.
