The Truth (as I seen it) according to Jehovah's Witnesses by Gary Busselman
by Dogpatch ingod is the creator, but since he only created michael,.
and michael created everything else, ("all other things") .
that would seem to make michael the real creator, .

If You Still "Had" To Go To Meetings What "Disrespectful" Things Might You Do?
by minimus ini know some who go to meetings because they feel they have to because of family or other considerations.. imagine going to a meeting and having your iphone with you!.
how would it look if you had a watchtower in your hands along with a tv guide?.
think about going to a meeting with strong booze breath.. any other suggestions?

Kids are great at being disrespectful at just the right moment. My 7 year old said in a loud voice at the end of the public talk one Sunday,
"Thank God thats over, that was reeeaally boring". Everyone heard him.

JW from London calls TV show.

The caller sounded like a typical ignorant dub spouting basic doctrine. That maybe enough for the average unreligious householder but not for someone who really knows what they're talking about. Poor Peter met his match, I bet he wished he never called.

DVD "JW's Faith In Action, part 1 Out of Darkness" Omits! Omits! Omits!
by Wasanelder Once ini've been watching the new dvd and it is a bull fest about russell.
i haven't even gotten half way and they already excluded one very important bit of information.
you'll recall that russell "lost" his faith and "turning away from church creeds and searching for truth, russell examined some leading oriental religions, only to find these unsatisfying".

Ray Franz Tribute
by besty inover at freeminds we didn't want this day to pass without some recognition of the life and death of ray franz.
in view of his stated wishes not to have a memorial or service we hoped for something that he would have liked for all of us to take a moment over.. .
we owe a note of thanks to v for his graphics work and atjeff for the obituary writing - i know neither of them need mentioned by me.. .

Can you love a man you've never met? With Ray, the answer's yes. There is no superlatives to describe a man so willing to follow his conscience at such personal cost, then go on to inspire many thousands of people to do the same.
With no sense of exaggeration I can honestly say that man gave me back my life. I owe him such a debt of thanks for his books and his courage that I can't begin to describe it.
Sleep well Ray, and a hearty "well done"

He is my hero. Without his courage to write what he knew, I would be spending my life under the control of the Watchtower Society. Now I'm free, thanks to that wonderful wonderful man.

Don't panic honey. You've taken the first steps in letting go of mamma's hand and taking control as an adult - its a scary thing to do isn't it? We're so used to being a child seeking mamma's approval, that we can forget how to be adults. You've remembered, well done!
You don't need mamma's approval anymore, you're a grown-up now so don't be afraid of her temper, you know you're right - stick to it. Then you'll be well on the way to being a principled mature adult who knows her own mind.
Go girl!

My Parents First Taste Of Being Shunned Since They DA'd.
by mentallyfree31 inmy parents sent their da letter back in march.
my mom bumped into a jw who has been a friend since 1985, in fact they were baptized the same day at the same convention.
this particular jw quit attending meetings in 1996. my mom saw her in a grocery store.

Shunning is their way of proving themselves righteous in their own eyes. Your mum's friend probably thinks that she's earned some brownie points with Jehovah for shunning her. She probably feels that even though she isn't attending meetings, at least she isn't as bad as your mum
Such hypocrisy.

WT March 15, 2010 - Page 27
by St George of England inthis article to be studied in two weeks time, in paragraph 13, footnote says: "jesus is the mediator of that covenant, not a participant.
as the mediator, he evidently did not partake of the emblems.".
(note use of evidently again!).

This is daft. As a Jew, Jesus partook of the Passover as the scriptures already posted have indicated. But before eating and drinking the passover meal together, Jesus gave the emblems a new meaning and significance relating to his blood and body.
And just because he didn't need to take on this new meaning of the emblems for himself, he did need to take them as part of Passover.
Jesus also didn't need to get baptised, but he did to set the example for others.
