  Disfellowshipped daughter not told of father's death

  by dozy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my wife was informed by her father that an old jw friend had died so she decided to text his daughter ( who lives abroad & is disfellowshipped ) her condolences.

  immediately the daughter phoned my wife in great anguish as she hadnt been informed that her father had died ( bearing in mind this event had happened 3 days previously.

  ) of course any chance that she might have had for coming over for the funeral had past.. her two brothers are elders and her sister is a regular pioneer but not one of them had thought to let their sister know.

  Why doesn't Jehovah just destroy Satan and the demons then leave humanity alone?

  by yadda yadda 2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  did you ever wonder that as a jw?.

  if all the trouble on this planet is down to satan and the demons, why not just get rid of them and then leave humankind alone and see how we go from there?

  wouldn't a god who "is love" (1 john 4:8) full of mercy and justice at least try that first?

  "A little while" - what the hell would that mean. So far the millenial reign has been 100 years, is that a little while?

  I am so glad it's all bullshit.

  Talking with a nonbeliever...

  by suavojr in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  in my search for the truth and the burning desire to become free from all forms of dogma and wishful thinking.

  i have approached my first crossroads in my life, should i continue to believe in a god or not?.

  currently i am leaning toward agnosticism, but all the suffering in the world, all the loss and pain in my own life makes it hard for me to simply let go of the idea and hope that at the end justice will prevail, that one day god can make it all good.. .

  If you make a decision to believe in god, which one? What evidence is there for Jesus as opposed to Thor, Zeus or Invisble Pink Unicorn?
