  It makes me sick that Jehovahs Witnesses Kids cannot play organized sports but it is okay for them to watch others play.

  I let my son play and coached too. He won MANY championships as a vital member of our baseball teams and played HS Hockey. By then we had faded. No one gave me a hard time about it as they knew it's not "technically" wrong and that I would challange/push back.

  jesus came in 1874...and 1914...and what did he do both times?...cmon dad what were you thinking????...and hit me up if you are from anywhere near greensboro

  absolutely nothing....but i bet for the forty years in between russell gave him full credit for how he was running things...just like they do today...but why does nobody ask wtf jesus is doing or what he did for those 40 years....who the hell was running things?!?!?!?

  so if russell thought jesus was running things (invisibly of course...how conveeeeeenient) for forty years before 1914...and they still do....what were the differences in the 40 years before 1914 and all those after?.....

  and now i am so dissapointed in my oh so intelligent dad jw elder for life...how could that and pedicting the end of the world in 1914 not be a deal breaker for this third generation jw dad????

  And it wasn't until the late 20's that they realized Jesus had inspected them and made them the F&DS. You would have thought that they would have known sooner

  hello all, i've just discovered this site and i cant begin to describe how happy i am to have come across it.

  i stumbled across this site purely by accident...seriously i was looking at arkham city walkthoughs and a few jumps later i end up here.

  i though it was a legit society page at first and thought 'what the hell, this will be good for a laugh', but after reading a few posts well...i couldnt stop reading.

  so, my work wants me to sign one.

  except, i'm now looking for another job because they significantly dropped my commission.

  i believe they can fire me if i refuse to sign so i have to stall.

  Does your contract state you can't work in the same field a certain distance from your current job, or can't start a business in the same field within a certain distance?

  Disfellowshipped man tries to poison Elder and his family.

  this story happened in my hometown in a hall i helped build years ago.

  its no wonder this sort of thing happens, this guy was probably desperate and vunerable when he got df'd.

  no pity for this stupid elder, but the poor kids.

  What apostates fail to recognize is...

  by nananana in

  2. beliefs

  you can cut & paste all the excerpts from articles you want...you can leak all the boe letters, you can pretend to be witnesses and come to the conventions and meetings...but.

  no other organization can begin to rival the success and magnitude of the prophecy found in mt 24:14. so apostates....don't waste your time spending countless hours digging up articles and reading books to convince yourself to turn away from jh's organization.

  no matter what "evidence" you find you cannot ignore the obvious fulfillment of matthew 24:14.. .

  " NO other organization can begin to rival the success and magnitude of the prophecy found in MT 24:14."

  I don't know, I think the Catholics have spread their message pretty far and wide.

  Going to empty homes at 10:30 on a Wednesday morning doesn't really mean much.

  Another possible reason for smaller mags. . .

  i was thinking this as i was reading through a foreign language wt yesterday afternoon.

  the wt needs so many translators to translate their crap into 200 or whatever languages.

  can you imagine the mental gymnastics these people need to do in order to translate stuff like the "generation" teaching into another language?
