So what caused you to have doubts in the first place?
by nicolaou ini had no doubts at all about the 'truth' untill a friend of mine in the cong' began falling away.
in trying to help him i had to ask questions and do research and that of course cracked the doors of my mind open for the first time in over thirty years.. years ago, when jwd allowed members to have signatures, i used the following quote from voltaire as mine.
i still love it.. doubt is uncomfortable, certainty is ridiculous..

I sensed that what I was seeing and experiencing on the congregational
level was also happening on the national and international level.
I was right.
I found out, mostly through people on this site, about all of the
cover-ups and scandals. Not just the old ones, but the newer ones like
the UN situation. -

BTTT for Bethel
Most of the research into so-called demonic music was
done by Christendom (dumb!) beginning in the 70s.
It was not thorough research, nor was unbiased.
Most of the accused were not involved in anything.
Furthermore, as I have stated many times here, there
are very few things without pagan influence, and the
Society has shown time and time again that it is not
consistent with its condemnations. -

I don't know about that.
I see where you are going with that, but, I am from Ohio, and to be quite honest, there is a lot of support for Christian bible-thumping (stereotype), especially in the small cities and towns. Just not in school.
That's why I think it's going to go the distance. He is not budging, and the rules are already in place.
Buckle up. -

Technology - vs WTS - re warped minds
by stillajwexelder ini remember an elder once giving a talk about technology.
he asked what kind of warped mind thinks and designs this stuff.
some even get a thrill from it.

Sometimes, they say some pretty simple-minded stuff.
Technology is not evil in and of itself. -

What was your first "Real" job...?
by Casper inone where you were actually given a paycheck, & where did you end up after that , if you're in the mood to tell ?
there are a lot of intelligent people here with, i assume, some very interesting occupations.... but hey, we all had to start somewhere........ for myself, my first real job was at a local clothing store, imagine my surprise when at the age of 18 i realized just how much items were marked up...!!!
i priced the clothes at 3 times the cost to the store.
