  What is the scriptural basis for restrictions?

  by digderidoo in

  ok heres the scenario.. mom is still a jw.

  her best friend and also neighbour (jw-elders wife) has a daughter who is "courting" (unofficially) someone who has just come back into the "truth", he has gone through his usual judicial process and repented from his wicked ways and has been publicly reproved.. now what puzzles me about this?.

  he is on restrictions as he is not classed as being in "good standing" within the congregation.

  Whose religion is WORSE than JW's?

  by gaiagirl in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  thought it might be interesting to put a perspective on things.

  while many here have had terrible experiences at the hands of jw's and the wtbts, are there religions that you know of which are any worse?

  for example, jw's might disfellowship a member who became known as a thief, but they don't chop off your hand.

  Intro: disfellowshipped as a teen in 1999

  by Moxie in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  greetings and warm wishes to everyone out there...

  this is my first post here on the site, though i have spent many countless hours as a guest reading and reading your posts and conversations.

  they have been a great encouragement to me, who as a young woman was disfellowshipped from the society about nine years ago.

  Why do JW's use different dating schemes?

  by sinis in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  well it seems that the jw's observe the passover, especially this year, utilizing the jewish calendar.

  yet, why do they not use the jewish calendar for fixing 1914?

  funny how they attempt to place the kingdom of god, and jesus ascension (1914) using the modern dating system, yet the ritual of honoring his covenant is based off a totally different dating scheme.

  On Saturday... I decided to dump all my literature

  by tak in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  it felt good!

  i took that huge plastic bin that contained multiple copies of all the books given out by the society, all the old wt and awake's that i had, the year books, etc..... and threw into the city dump.

  my boyfriend thought i should maybe bring the literature back to them and i said "hell no.... so they can give it out to more innocent people.. he agreed.
