And I'm a Born Again Christian. But I don't think that a 7 yr old child can understand the true meaning of everything thing they're being taught. I was Baptized into Mormonism at age 8 and the only reason I did it was to please my parents. Peer pressure also has a great influnce on children that age and the desire to please others. Accepting Jesus is a usual part of every one of these meetings.

My 7 yer old is saved!
by DrunkWithLiberty inmy little seven year old went to church with a neighbor kid last wednesday evening.
i thought the class would just be a few bible stories and color something, and since my husband and i want our children to be exposed to all kinds of beliefs and religions, i let her go.
boy, was i wrong.

being "saved" doesn't automatically make her a member of that church.

But the church your child went to proabily thought it was OK by you just for the fact you allow her to go. This is the very reason I wouldn't allow my child to go to any JW or Mormon meeting.

Reasons why I hate the JW's...
by TheApostleAK ini've witnessed these all...unfortunately... this is for all here who aren't jw's or xjw's.
this is what the jw's r really like.... problem: get rid of the crusty old geezers doing privledges.
example: the old has-beens who think they are elders and can boss people around.. problem: the thing where u have to ask the elders for everything.. example: in the literature room there was a box of old books, of which were books i needed to plug up gaps in my collection.

and a former member of the Morg. I see part of the problem as being the mentality of these religious dictatorships. I can give you some of the same examples in mormondom. Temple attendence is up when a general authority comes to a area. People trying to win respect by moving up in the ranks, leaders thinking they are the word of God and beating people over their head with authority. We have much in common. One of the root causes of this problem is salvation by works. When people think they earned righteousness they think they're better then others. This is a form of Religious Class warfare. "I'm more holy then you are."

Who Were the NWT Translators?
by AlanF ini just posted this information to a private email list, but i think it will be of interest to people on this board.. the following list of translators of the new world translation is a compilation from a variety of sources:.
frederick w. franz: main translator.
took liberal arts sequence at university of cincinnati; 21 semester hours of classical greek, some latin.

but when they did the translation, why did they have to remove all the beauty of the scripture? It gives me physical pains to read that translation of Psalms.
