  Where do you go to die?

  by wasasister in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for the majority of humans, certain events are surrounded by tradition and ritual.

  marriage, the birth of children, entrance into adulthood, and death are all life-events which will be marked by most with a form of religious ceremony.

  for the few who have left off affiliation with a religious organization, these events are marked differently - more by tradition than by mystic ritual.

  ARE AVERAGE JWs DECEPTIVE?

  by Amazing in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i ask this because on this and other forums that have a large share of former jws, our stated experiences and encounters during and after our jw membership seem to reflect that the wts and its body of believers are most corrupt.

  likewise, those never associated who read our posts may get the impression that even visiting a kingdom hall may result in serious negative events.. i believe that it is important to remind everyone that the average jw is a generally good person.

  most try to live good lives, act on their beliefs, and promote what they feel is the truth.

  Can someone answer this???

  i never really had a clear understanding of how jw's labeled someone apostate.

  some time this week the elders will receive my letter disasociating myself.

  in the letter i accuse the organization as being a cult.

  I ate meat on Friday

  by chester in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was raised as a catholic.

  it used to be considered a sin to eat meat on friday.

  even for a little boy who was at the age of reason.. i remember very well the time when i was in the second grade about the age of 7 that i did eat a hot dog on a friday.. i knew that it was a sin but i ate it anyway.

  WERE ANIMALS MEANT TO BE VEGGYS?

  by uncle_onion in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i would be very interested in any creationalists response to genesis 1:30 where the bible tells us that all animals wre originallly vegetarians.. why aren't they vegetarians now?

  what about gnats who only live on blood?.

  this to me brings up a lot of issues that can not be answered.

  What is truth?

  by spectromize in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  ah!

  yes, that remark made by pilate after pilate had asked jesus wether he was a king.

  ( john 18:37-38 ).. how would you answer the question according to what we know from the bibles definition, and how the faithful and discreet slave have endeavored to give us spiritual food at the proper time?.
