  2. friends

  i thought the name of this thread was so on time for this thread demostrates one of the sad things about claiming to speak for god, when one actually does not.. when i was a newly appointed elder at the tender age of 27 .

  i was introduced to the world of the judical committee.. it was in fact my first case.

  i had gotten a call from the po before the meeting stating that their would be an elders meetings to discuss some judical matters.

  "Questions From Readers"...are they r...

  by LovesDubs in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  just like the urban legends that we all heard at assemblies, we also read questions from readers in the wts rags...did you guys ever read those while you were still jws and think "oh my god...there is no way that some 8 year old wrote or even said any of this.

  " or when you heard at assemblies that we should be soooo thankful because the brothers in africa are walking through gator infested, malarial waters with their children on their backs and their book bags and meeting clothes on their heads, through monsoon rains 74 miles each way to attend their assemblies.

  my mother used to say the same thing about cleaning my plate because there were kids in whoknowswhere starving to death.

  Watchtower Reprints Query

  by Mr Angry in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hi to all again.. about a year before i packed it in back in late '90 the wts reprinted (in english in the uk) the wt bound volumes from 1960 - 1979.. in view of the (even then) dodgy information (e.g.

  the 1975 issue in the 1968 bound volume) i wondered why they did this.

  ok so the internet wasn't around but i would have thought that the last thing the wts would do was draw attention to issues they would rather forget.

  Should JW's and Gays Be Allowed To Adopt?

  by Englishman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this morning my nearest and dearest were discussing issues relating to adoption.

  a close relative of the family has been turned down as an adoptive parent because he and his wife are too wealthy!.

  the adoption people say that it is important that children have some negative input into their lives, apparently not having money worries can be bad for you.. we carried on talking and her ladyship asked me whether jw`s ever adopted children.

  How Well Do You Know The Bible?

  by dark clouds in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i want to share a perspective, with everyone that comes here to read, for i feel it will take some of us in a new direction.

  perhaps it will allow for some creative thinking and interesting discussion or maybe it simply wont go anywhere.

  it does not really matter either way, for there are subjects which can only be speculated on and thoughts which can only be shared.

  by Norm in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the final solution watchtower style.. we have been told on this board lately that the watchtower society preach the good news and that is one of the good things that set them apart from christendom.

  people who call the watchtower society message good news has hopefully never really given much thought to what is going to happen if their good news should become reality.

  let us investigate what these good news is all about.. the 22. may, 1999 issue of awake!
