Any Fans of The Doors?

by XJW4EVR in

i will admit that i am not a big fan of much of the music that came out of the counterculture.

however, i am a huge fan of the doors.

i find their music to be so far above the other music of that time.

I love my doors yeah they keep me warm at night when im at home.I dont know what i would do without them.

But... seriously i think riders on the storm is great.Has a ring of truth to it.

This is terrible another bad apple in the kingdom hall that was overlooked by the elders and so called Jehovah who we were always told would root out evil out of the " truth".

HOW can a Jdub accept BLOOD FRACTIONS?? hmm?

by martinwellborne in

i thought the main thing with the blood issue was that it was to be viewed from god's point of view.

not that it would be up to individual choice and conscience.

my point that i am trying to get to is this, how can a jdub accept blood fractions if they want to view blood in the same light as god would.. am i making this clear?

jacethespace

Makes perfect sense to me now

Just after i was baptized and i recieved my blood card i thought carefully about blood fractions and decided not to accept them

Well the elder came round to see me and told me they were concerned that i hadnt accepted fractions and suggested i should change my card

So much for making a decision based on conscience!

They would rather wash their robes then follow Gods commandments

by bite me in

see for yourself if you already don't know that is.

in place of "doing his commandments" in rev 22:14 nwt states .. wash their robes..".

what is the purpose for that change?

jacethespace

This fits in with their doctrine of putting on the new personality.

But the commandments doesnt.

Intresting find.

when out in field service circus did you ever speak to an householder who made you question whether this was the truth rather than you getting them to think about what you were saying?or what other things did you see that made you wonder if this is gods org?or convinced you it couldnt be?.

i remember one householder i visited one saturday morning and i started my usual door to door message offering the watchtower and awake but the guy i spoke to seemed to have a good understanding of history and religion and said " we dont want to go back to becoming slaves again like in the past ".and ive never forgot that person and what he said it really made me think about who i might actually be slaving for.. i also started to doubt when some out in field circus left peoples houses saying " if they die at armaggedon its there own fault " and i often used to think how the householder would feel if they heard some of the comments made about them, they would probably never open the door again to jws so much for not stumbling weak ones.. i also know some jws who always boasted about counting their time as soon as they jumped on the bus to the hall for field circus and offered a tract or a dose of anthrax magazine.. other times i was working with an elder who admitted to me that he admired spiritual people cause he didnt feel he was spiritual and felt materalistic which i thought was sad.the same elder told me he didnt think " the truth" could help with everything so much for appointed elders being qualified.. these things and many others just fueled my doubts about jehovahs loving.

but no its not the watchtower its satan and the demons out ta.... getchaa..

When out in field ~~service~~ circus did you ever speak to an householder who made you question whether this was the truth rather than you getting them to think about what you were saying?or what other things did you see that made you wonder if this is gods org?or convinced you it couldnt be?

I remember one householder i visited one saturday morning and i started my usual door to door message offering the watchtower and awake but the guy i spoke to seemed to have a good understanding of history and religion and said " we dont want to go back to becoming slaves again like in the past ".And ive never forgot that person and what he said it really made me think about who i might actually be slaving for.

I also started to doubt when some out in field circus left peoples houses saying " if they die at armaggedon its there own fault " and i often used to think how the householder would feel if they heard some of the comments made about them, they would probably never open the door again to jws so much for not stumbling weak ones.

I also know some jws who always boasted about counting their time as soon as they jumped on the bus to the hall for field circus and offered a tract or a ~~dose of anthrax~~ magazine.

Other times i was working with an elder who admitted to me that he admired spiritual people cause he didnt feel he was spiritual and felt materalistic which i thought was sad.The same elder told me he didnt think " the truth" could help with everything So much for appointed elders being qualified.

These things and many others just fueled my doubts about jehovahs loving clean tower.

But no its not the watchtower its Satan and the demons out ta.... getchaa.

friends

i have just finished reading crisis of conscience by raymond franz.

i only stumbled across this book on wednesday in the town library while waiting for a public computer.

the last couple of days in the uk has seen miserable weather which has effected my work so i have had plenty of spare time to read this book.

Hello digderidoo nice to see someone else from the west midlands here too.

this could make you laugh or be really angry !

by looloo in

i recently bumped into a jw i know that told me that her watch had been pinched at an assembly , she then went on to tell me that a lot of worldly people go to assemblys ,so she should have been more carfull !!!!!!!

this is someone that knows im "worldly" i was gobsmacked when i had recovered from my shock i informed her that i would not dream of stealing something despite being "worldly".

i dont even think she realised how offensive it sounded and she is not usually a judgemental person , so it must be all that self righteous association she has been mixing with lol

I once heard a comment at one meeting and someone was saying how he had lost his wallet at a supermarket.He returned to the store and asked at the desk and someone had handed it in, he went on to say it must have been a witness.I thought what a load of crap as if people who arent jws arent honest too.
