as an elder, i always seemed to be at a meeting.

I hated talks on the ministry school , so an often used lie was to call my old man or wife and tell her I was stuck in terrible traffic..

Did You Cheat at the Written Review?

by south african beef in

during the boring written review, did you really prepare and look up the answers beforehand, or did you just write anything down or did you copy the superdub sitting next to you?

personally i just wrote any old thing down and ticked it as right when they read out the answers.

however when i was growing up i had to get loads right or i would face questions from my mum!

What a good shout have not heard the WR mentioned for years , wondered even if they still even do it? never needed to cheat it was crap anyway but a break of the usual boredom

How many were raised as a witness, and are now Christian ?

by troubled mind in

i was raised a witness and have not known anything else .

i go back and forth with myself on whether i even believe in god at all anymore .

i keep hoping that there is ....from a young age i had a strong desire to understand god .

was raised as a jw, now 40, dabbled with evangelical churches but could not take it seriously, dont really believe in the biblical concept of God and the Devil but do accept the personage of Jesus, dont like labels and have looked into Buddhism, so I'm not really anything now just an older wiser x jw.

Can the JWs really be called Christians?

by greendawn in

given the jehovah centred approach of the jws and the marginalisation of christ at least as compared to mainstream christian religions, the extreme reliance on the old testament and particularly the refusal of nearly all jws to participate in the new covenent, should they be thought of as christians at all?

even though they like to call themselves at times: christian (?!

) jehovah's witnesses.

chiddy

of course they cant , they are a mono atheistic sacred name movement cult, if they never pray to Jesus how can they be christians?

It seems ex jw's in the UK are angrier than anywhere else why?

by hambeak in

i admittedly am new to this and i am not being judgmental.

why does it seem that when i read the threads from folks in the uk it seems they are preoccupied with a lot of research into the wts and changes into their beliefs?

why not just let it go and go on with life.

We in PNG are the Angriest !

when i got off for lunch today i decided to go to the walmart deli and get something to eat.

it is a huge store, groceries, a bakery, mc donalds, a bank , eye center, beauty shop, a great deli, and a huge garden center.

i had taken back a 80 gig hard drive dvd recorder ( i couldn't figure out how to hook up <smile> and had received 238.00. i picked up a couple of things in the store then went to the deli.

I always pray to Jesus not the angry Hebrew god Yahweh
