  Ban The Internet

  by megs in

  the thought occurred to me that if post-secondary education is to be avoided, why would the wts not make a similar stance about the internet?

  all dubs in good standing should burn their books and their computers... really, the internet has great propensity to open people's minds and expose them to different ideas and viewpoints.

  in itself it doesn't promote critical thinking, but it certainly offers fodder for thought and expression.

  The best rock drummer you probably never heard of

  by JK666 in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  as you all know i am a huge frank zappa fan, and he has had some of the world's best musicians play in his band.

  he also had great drummers, but my personal favorite was terry bozzio.

  he reminds me a little of a young keith moon with his wild expressions.

  WTS response to 9/11

  by Robert7 in

  i'm sure this has been discussed in length, but i'm a newbie :).

  one item that really shocked me, back when i believed this was 'the truth' was the lack of response to the 9/11 attacks.

  as all of us, we were really shocked and really were looking for comfort at the meeting (school/service meeting).

  how does the wt treat illegal mexicans who are also jehovah's witnesses?

  if the mexican was a publisher or pioneer in mexico, does the society allow them to be full, fledged publishers or pioneers here in the united states?

  A JW's Reaction to the Colorado Church Shootings

  by fattire5010 in

  just to show you the mindset of the typical jw.

  i was talking with my mother-in-law who lives only 15 miles from one of the colorado churches where the shootings took place yesterday.

  when i expressed my sympathies for the victims and the community, she basically said in a cold-hearted, remorseless way; what do you expect for babylon the great, especially in a church where the priest is a sexual deviant!.

  Beards and dress clothes...

  by B_Deserter in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i often wonder about the unwritten rule in kingdom halls that a witness should be in dress clothes and brothers cannot have beards (the beard rule i think is pretty much us-only though).

  sure, they won't stop you from coming to a meeting in your work clothes and they might even treat you fine.

  but, if you want to go anywhere in the congregation (i.e.

  Yep, I Gave A Public Talk

  2. bible

  can we see the fulfillment of this today?

  these are just a few of the prophecies recorded in the bible which have seen their fulfillment.

  another evidence of divine authorship can be found in the practical guidance the bible gives.
