Your Life Song....

by LouBelle in

jw
friends

there are songs that we all think about and remember a certain time/moment.

right now the song runaway train is my song - this is how i've been feeling over the last year.... call you up in the middle of the night.

like a firefly without a light.

Does the WT have any legal grounds to go after "apostates" for defamation, slander, libel?

by never a jw in

question to all those well versed in legal issues.

all jw's, when confronted with criticism, claim that apostates lie about the wt.

i always have wondered, given the litigious environment in which we live in western democracies, why the wts doesn't go after all those websites that publish so many "lies" about "the truth".. can this lack of action on the part of the wts be used as evidence of the truthfulness of the message in "apostate" sites such as jwfacts,.

1973 versus 2013 (40 years later)... How much confidence have J-Dubs lost in the Slave's "End-Time" estimations?

by Calebs Airplane in

back in 1973, when i was just a pre-teen, i remember that meetings in general were chock full of persecution talks, great tribulation talks and armageddon talks.

so much so, that there was a hightened sense of anticipation that the end was really just a few years away.

most j-dubs really believed, without any doubt, that freddy's estimation about armageddon in 1975 was a certainty (give or take a few months... not years).

karter

Alot of the elders C.O's ect of today were not even around pre 75.

I was and clearly remember the talks at the KH and assemblys ect.

The WTS is at best "Date shy" these days never putting dates on anything....i guess they have been wrong so many times.

Should the Watch Tower Corporation Be held Legal Responsible if it Sends A Known Pedophile Knock on Unsuspecting People Doors Preaching Their Propaganda?

by frankiespeakin in

comment please..

karter

The answer is YES it's not up to the Elders to decide who calls on some strangers door.

Put it this way your wife starts a study with him and his wife and the children sit in and her husband finds out he is a child molester....go figure.

They should NOT be able to go from door to door....EVER!!!

The Elders seem to think it's up to them to decide who is fit to call on your door.

Came back home when wife got pregent(they eventuly had 3 children) ,sold everything pre 75 to see the system out and pioneer then had to work his butt off to rebuild his finances and put a roof over his familys head.

He retired and became a CO till his wifes health could no longer alow it.

He got a treminal illness and i wonder in his quiter moments did he think ....".ive lived my entire life for a dream that never came true"

He's only one of many i see,Their lives comming to an end and the new system is no closer than it was when they started.
