Gaaaa!!!...So I guess that I have alot more waiting to do...My letter wasn't a rant, it simply had some questions that I was unable to have answered by the local elders. (U.N. thing)...I even ran it by a few people to make sure that it didn't sound confrontational. Has anyone had any luck with sending the letter multiple times? Or does anyone have a phone or Email addy that may be faster? If you do, please PM me.

JW's - Satanic Cult or just wrong-headed religion?
by AK - Jeff inthe evils of the religion are well documented here and elsewhere - but does that prove to you that they are indeed 'satanic', under the direction of satan?
or are they just screwed up?

It started honestly enough...Russell made no effort to hide the source of info or predictions (however wrong they were)...He was searching for God's purpose....He wasn't trying to controll people.....but as usually happens, men (Rutherford, GB) found that they had influence in peoples' lives and ran with it which turned an honest group of people in the persuit of truth into a group who defines "the truth" as their organization. They are not a "Satanic Cult"...they have just progressively moved further and further away from those original pure intentions.

Jeffro:
Not quite as bombastic an opinion as 'she said no but she really meant yes', but it's right up there.
Woah...We're talking about two completely different things here...I'm talking about coercion...you're talking about forcing sex. Of course a man can say no and then the woman could force herself on him, but that isn't the case here. They were both willing participants.

Yikes.....ummm...my gut says drop him. He was obviously old enough to know better...I don't know how you'd be able to even look at him w/out seeing him with her...*yeesh*..IMO, men are never coerced into sex...if a guy doesn't want to get it on, then he won't...and especially not with his cousin. I wouldn't even think of marrying him, but I'm not you so......there's my two cents. Best of luck.

Has anyone seen this research on 607 and the Watchtower?
by lurker ini was recently searching the web for information on 607 to discuss with my wife and i came up with this.
http://www.jehovahsjudgment.co.uk/607/default.html these people say that they are proving the watchtowers 607 date correct.
i am convinced that the watchtower is wrong because of all the other things that i have researched but i would welcome any feedback.

This part I found funny:
"What will you accept? The chronology of secular historians who mould the Bible to fit their chronology, making inspired prophecies fail? Or will you accept the complete and harmonious Biblical chronology, which gives us a time-line without contradictions, showing the total fulfillment of every prophecy Jehovah gave us? Will you judge the accuracy of secular chronology against the occasions where it agrees with the Bible, or will you only judge the Bible correct if the secular evidence happens to agree with it?
It very easily could go the other way...
What will you accept? The chronology of THE WTBTS who mould the Bible to fit their chronology, making HISTORICAL EVIDENCE fail? Or will you accept the complete and harmonious FACTS.....etc.

How did you hide things?
by Nosferatu infor those of you who had some evil in you, how did you hide the things that you didn't want your parents or fellow jws to find?.
i used to hide porn magazines under the carpet in my bedroom, and i had a gutted vcr that i used to hide my rap tapes (along with other things i can't remember).
