  to accept the existence of god?

  (i'm not talking about "a big man in the sky" kind of deity.

  ) what would it take to convince you that mankind was intentionally created by a powerful and intelligent creative force?

  JW-Values Anyone?

  by JAVA in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  we have a discussion group of 8 or 9 people that meets at our house every 4 to 6 weeks.

  weve been doing this over 5 years and gotten to know each other fairly well.

  during our last salon a few spoke of religious values that carried over even though they are no longer members of their former religion.

  Has anyone found dating as an EX JW difficult?

  by sweetstuff in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  just curious as to what difficulties have faced people dating as an ex jw.

  myself, i have noticed the glazed over look in a guy's eyes when you try to explain why your family doesn't celebrate the holidays with you etc.

  new to this board, so if this has been well covered before, please forgive me.

  Do you have any assembly memories/stories?

  by RisingEagle in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  on an earlier thread about ice cream i remembered a snack that was sold at assemblies and that started me thinking about some of my memories of childhood at conventions/assemblies.

  i guess it was the taste/smell association because even today when i go to various convention halls for home improvement expos, car shows and the like it takes me right back to the past.

  i have many memories wrapped around the conventions and experienced different things because i have lots of elders in the family that were used, literally, for food service, the accounting office, security and dramas.

  Are JW's generally better than average people?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i for one, would blindly trust just about anyone on this forum, just the fact of knowing that you already were a jw.. does this mean that jw's in general are better people or are we a very close bunch of people?.
