years ago, nearly every jw were true believers.

even if they were considered weak in the faith, they accepted all the beliefs and views from "mother".

do you think today's witnesses accept everything as being the truth?.

I was 6 years old when I started having doubts because I didn't believe God would really kill everyone who wasn't baptised...

I think any person that thinks even a little bit must have some doubts...

climbing the jw ladder is so important to some of the zealous, childless, jw couples.

to reach the goal there seemed to be untold amounts of political intrigue, arse licking & generally being a pious knob end.

loved by few, hated by most.

"jehovah's witnesses are the fastest-growing church body in the u.s. and canada, now with more than 1 million members, according to new figures that track church membership in the u.s. and canada.

although jehovah's witnesses ranked 24th on the list of 25 largest churches, they reported the largest growth rate -- 2.25 percent -- of all churches.

Anyways, besides the people who grow up in this religion, don't the others know how to do a google search???

Not that I've heard of... But, I did hear that one of our old CO's committed suicide and from what I've heard he was bedridden for 2 years because of depression... Not sure if that was true or not... I don't remember his name, but he was a CO in MA about 15 years or so ago. He was very tall with dark hair... Anyone remember what his name was???
