  Can an olive tree literally live under the water canopy? Can anything else that needs photosynthesis live under that canopy?

  Would you rather have the truth, or your feelings spared?

  by Bumble Bee in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if it was me, i'd rather have the truth up front.

  i went through an experience where someone didn't tell me the truth about a situation, thought that by not being totally honest, my feelings would be spared.

  maybe at the time, they were, but afterwards when i found out the truth i was deeply hurt and confused.

  I want the whole truth delivered in a tactful (sugar coating hides nothing and makes it taste better) manner. Toss the ball gently. Don't slam me with hurtful info.

  Not sure what the picture is, but I'll comment on the message: I would grown up at age 12 without a mother if she didn't wear hers.

  Why make prophecies cryptic?

  by LtCmd.Lore in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  ok, this thread is not about whether or not the bible prophecies are valid.

  i just want to know why god would inspire a prophecy about a giant tree, bowls of anger, seven headed animals, the moon turning to blood, the sun going dark, the sea turning to blood, everything else turning to blood multiple times.. counting things in days when he actually means years, using 'times' which don't meen anything.

  symbolizing rulers with trees, horns and mountains.

  The high and mighty depend and prey on the ignorance of the lowly so as to CONTROL them. If you keep someone in the dark about something they need to know, you have CONTROL over that person.

  Shunned at the hall for not sticking to the program

  by truthseeker in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  our congregation likes bums on seats.. one sister recently said, "if you're not able to be regular for whatever reason, they treat you like you have leprosy.".

  this is true in my case - i am an active fader - i haven't been out on service since last summer, i don't attend book studies but.

  i am married and have to support my wife lest she get these pity looks from the friends.. elders and their wives ignore me - some even talk to my wife while i'm next to her but ignore me.. it's weird - i think maybe some resent my freedom from the program - the freedom to just turn up or leave half way through the talk.. i don't really deal with it - i don't know what to say.. .

  did anyone read about cults when a jw and think oh that sounds familiar?

  by looloo in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i have recently read escape by a caroline jessop , about a flds lady that got away and when i was reading things she used to believe , that sounded like jw kind of stuff i wondered if a jw read it they may question what they believe , and could read it guilt free because i presume it would not be classed as apostate as it is critical of another relgion also another book about 3 sisters that left the children of god cult had similarities with jws , maybe your relatives that wont even look at apostate stuff would read these type of books .

  Then they say we should not blame god for our problems. If we followed the WTS's advice on how to live our lives, we will have problems, which "prove" that we must be doing something right.
