  Why do you think Jesus never wrote anything down?

  if his message was to be followed like a rule book, wouldn't he have written down some things with his own hand?.

  on a previous posting i suggested that i have experienced post-traumatic stress disorders due to my jw upbringing.

  feedback has been mixed.

  some agree with my assessment, others suggest a misdiagnosis on my part.. please allow me to be more specific concerning actual events that led to my usage of that trerm:.

  well, i was told that a married lesbian that i know of has been studying with jw for several years.

  i was shocked to see the teacher(i know that sister too) and the student pictured together on facebook.

  they were smiling big time.

  What no sports?!

  by Chalam in

  2. beliefs

  i was reading the list of don'ts and do's for jws in a recent thread and was slightly surprised by the prohibition of sports.. we are not talking violent sport like boxing or such, just athletics, ball sport and stuff right?.

  when i thought about it i was not so surprised as my jw friend said a long time back he wasn't into football and i agreed, i am not the greatest fan (although i gladly watch brazil!).

  so what do the kids do at school, sit out and watch?

  Tell the ''Governing Body'' one thing that you've always wanted them to know!

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  2. beliefs

  the only reason you have total control over all of your members is your false ''faithful and discreet slave'' scripture.

  this scripture was applied only for your benefit.

  without this scripture your whole religion would fall..
