  What would you say to someone who.......

  by Tatiana in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  ...is not a witness, yet states that the reason jws have survived is because of their ability to adapt.

  just like the catholic church?

  this was in response to a list of ever-changing doctrines from 100 years ago till the present day.

  New Here, My Personal Story

  by johannahw in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i have thought off and on about the jws for years.

  my little sister brenda converted about 30 years ago and raised two sons in the truth as she called it.

  one boy, mason, is still being raised as a jw (he is 15) and my other nephew, aaron, left the organization on his 18th birthday.

  Are some of us still judgmental and think ourselves morally superior?

  by nvrgnbk in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  is a certain "uptightness" creeping into our community?.

  should we be scolding one another?.

  especially kids?

  what poster to you always check?

  by nowisee in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  is there anyone, when you see they have posted, that you always check to see what they have to say?

  i always check blondie, bebu, alanf, farkel, onacruse, aguest (and probably others).

  bc what they say has some gravity, some enlightenment, some knowledge, some insight.

  this is one of the sadest days in my life, my beloved husband marco passed away this morning at 5:15 am.. it has been a dreadful day.

  but my dear friend was with most of the day while we went togerther to make funeral arrangements.. that was really hard on me.

  i have done nothing but cry and cry all day, i finally fell asleep a few hours ago while my friend diane was here and she let me sleep.

  How many happy JW marriages do you know of?

  by Bonnie_Clyde in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  just reading frequent flyer miles on the subject of feeling guilty for having a happy marriage with a non-jw.. in our congregation which i haven't attended for about a year, i can only think of two or three who seem to be happy.

  of course, i don't know what happens behind closed doors, but i know of several who admit they are unhappy.

  i wrote out a long list of couples who have divorced over the last 20 years--including three elders (one is on his second divorce).

  an epithany

  by darth frosty in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  while raking my yard today a had an epithany.

  i started to thinking, being in the witness organization is a lot like being in an inbred family.

  think about the reasons that getting with your sister or fist cousins are wrong.
