  An Elder's honest opinion...saw this on another site...thoughts?

  by MsGrowingGirl20 in

  by "shadow elder".

  before i express my opinion to the readers and contributors to this website (www.ex-jw.com), i would like to explain who i am and to present my bona fides as someone qualified to comment on this website and jehovah's witnesses in general.. first of all, i am an active jehovah's witness living just outside of new york city.

  being a large metropolis, new york has many kingdom halls located within the city and several more in surrounding boroughs, counties, and suburbs.

  If he's waiting for the holy spirit to correct things, he's got a long wait, maybe he thinks he's going to live forever.

  My understanding as a former elder is as long as you are a NPG (non-practicing gay) you can be a JW however, you would never be able to be an elder, a ministerial servant, or a pioneer. And you would NEVER be able to practice your sexuality.

  As in our whole society, many are more tolerent of Homosexual's as long as they don't live in our backyard, the witnesses are much like the world they will tolerate you as long as you don't act too gay.

  Good luck with your endevours and remember you will be disfellowshipped if you do have a homosexual affair

  1. jw

  regarding the "stand your ground" law, bill maher joked that if the law was on the books in his state (california, i believe), his front lawn would be littered with jehovah's witnesses.

  just felt like sharing.

  Funny, I love Bill he is not afraid to tell it like it is in all catagories. I don't know how much he know's about Jehovah's Witnesses. They would even be more of a pain if he only knew how wierd they really are.

  Based on the maturity level of teenagers I've observed who are in, or were raised in the bORG these types of illistrations fit the general demographic of the JW youth from 16-21. Just my thoughts

  Question for elders about MEMORIAL EMBLEMS...

  by Alfred in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  what is done with the bread and the wine after the conclusion of the memorial?.

  is it normally tossed in the trash and poured down the drain?.

  if so, wouldn't that be simbolic of throwing jesus' body in the trash and pouring his blood into the sewer?.

  A thought on God creating us in his image or us creating him in our image

  by ldrnomo in

  i saw this quote from stephen hawking today.

  "i think computer viruses should count as life ... i think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive.

  we've created life in our own image.".

  " I think computer viruses should count as life ... I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image."

  Are we destructive because we were created in God's image?

  Or are we just destructive so the God we created (the many forms of God we created) are also destructive.
