politics, homosexuals, athiests
by BR25 ini still have the jws beliefs, but havent attended in probably 5 years or so.
i have an interesting question to ask.. as much as everyone slams the jws on here, i want some insite on politics.
now i watched the democratic covention the last few nights, and i really want a democrat myself, but couldnt help hearing bill, hillary and other democrats wanting not only wanting equal rights for all races, children, but also homosexuals.

different congregations
by BR25 ini know that most of you dont believe in the jw faith anymore, but do any of you think certain things might have went different for you if in a different congregation?
ive mentioned before that i believe in what the jws believe.
im asking this question though because ive been to a couple of congregations in different areas and ive found some to be more heartworming, more open, and happier than others.

would you still be a JW?
by BR25 infrom coming on here from time to time i notice there is many disfellowshipped ones and alot of those who didnt like their freedoms taken away from them.
ignoring what you have researched and know now how many of you, honestly if there was no disfellowshipping and say you were allowed to have more freedoms such as playing sports, how many of you would still be witnesses?
once again ignore ever coming on here for insight and so forth.

dog the bounty hunter
by BR25 ini wanted to know everyones opinion on him losing his show and his comments.. first of all i do think his comments warrant the cancellation of his show, but it should have never got that far.
when you are talking with family it should never leave the house.
it should stay behind closed doors.

Martin Luther King JR. The 3rd
by BR25 ini wanted to start a topic on this man because i know there is alot of bad things said about sharperton and jackson on this site and i am not a big fan either, but i do like martin luther king jr the 3rd.. with shaperton and jackson i do believe they do good for people from time to time, but i also think they cause hurt race relations quite a bit, and cause racial diverstiy, but i have heard jr. the 3rd talk on a few occasions and he is a humble guy and i believe he is good for race relations.. 1. he never makes things worse than what they are.. 2. he concentrates on subjects as better education for african american students in area where there is not much funding, and cleans up communities and sets up foundations for communities that need help.. 3. he talked about his foundations on a sports show one time, and he mentioned quite a few white athletes who helps him with these foundations, and i tell you why this is important to me.
it is not just because i am white, but also because if there is anyone who has an excuse to be rascist its this man because of all his family went through especially his dad.
instead of being a rascist though he tries to improve race relations and includes white people in what he tries to accomplish.

now i'm even more confused...
by Missanna inok i started thinking tonight which is always a bad idea after i've had a long, really pressuring, day at work.
but i've been in this sort of confused uncomfortable state lately about whether i believe in god or not.
i finally got past the actual guilt of having these questions because i knew that was just what was drilled into my skull in my past.
