  does that title sound blasphemous?

  well, i'm sorry if it does - but who ever imagines what the world would be like if sexual urges .

  could not be satisfied by oneself?

  Heard at last Sunday talk...

  i almost had to sneeze and scream bullshit when i heard this.

  the brother giving the talk said that the society has never made a prediction about when the end would come.

  he said people just read what the society published, and added their own thoughts to it!!!

  Guess they've learned not to put it into print, it is easier to deny a talk than a publication.

  Wonder how many jws mortaged their homes for some spending money in early 70s?

  I was filled with the spirit

  I was drunk with the spirit

  Heal me

  It doesn't matter which church you go to

  Thank you, Jesus

  I got a prophetic word

  I had a prophetic dream

  Raise your arms in praise

  I put in for overtime

  Let the good times roll

  If the WTS closed shop, who'd get the money?

  by PopeOfEruke in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i don't really understand who really are the beneficial owners of the watchtower society and all its assets.. so i pose this question: if the watchtower society closed down tomorrow and all the assets were sold off, who would get the billions of dollars?

  the wts shareholders??

  or are there jw companies which are "owed" huge amounts by the society, and so all the cash would simply go to these "companies" to pay off the "debt"?.

  With WTS in so many countries, they might siphon off funds to other bethel offices or 'missionary expansion' to countries with more liberal fund management.

  Do you feel that the "Rapture" is close now that you are a christian?

  by booker-t in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for all ex-jw's that are now born-again christians.

  do you now believe that the "rapture" is close?

  have you traded one lie "armaggeddon is around the corner" that jw's insist on to jump ship and believing another "lie" by born-agains that the "rapture is very close".

  I have not accepted the 'rapture' theory, all the verses I've shown appear to be about the resurection. not live humans being 'taken up'. Maybe if nI was still an active jw, I would think the rapture is about the remaining 'annointed' being taken up.

  Guess I was lucky, when I didn't get baptised during my teens' my father told me it was not a df offense. He also advised me it was not something I would have to admit to, much less confess to it. (He never did ask me about it)Sometimes I wonder how a man so smart stayed a jw.

  Agapa,

  I've had a relative arguing that God violated the marriage of Mary & Joseph by making her pregnant before their marriage. It raises another question, Did Joseph refrain from sex with Mary until after Jesus was born. Many Catholics believe Mary stayed a virgin her entire life (even though bible said Jesus had brothers.
