maybe i have watched too many zombie movies but i would sleep with one eye open, inquire to see what is your favored menu,do you sleep walk, are your body parts functioning properly (i would hate to shake your hand and it fall off).
your wife never married after 10 years and now you are back, can you perform in the marriage bed?
?it would be hard for me to sleep at nights with someone that have been dead for over one year sleeping next to me.
MOrpheus Whats worse is that because the wt dosent teach that people have unique souls nobody is "resurrected". They are instead copies of The original who think they are the original
How is that the same person jw apologists?????
That's the problem With Watchtower, no philosophers to think their absurd theology through. Its not for nothing mainstream religions came up with the non physical soul. There's no other logical option if its to be the eternal life of the *same* person

I think the elders are gonna have their work cut out dealing with some of the "Ancient Worthies"!!!
Solomon will go from 700 wives to ZERO wives in the New system....oh er...and I can't imagine him taking too kindly to being " assigned" somewhere to live by some pompous window cleaner.
LOTT's wife won't be to happy when she meets the grandkids/stepkids!!
David's gonna deal with Bathsheba fighting with all the jw pioneer " fangirls" LoL!!
Which family will JOB choose - original wife or replacement wife ( don't think wife no.1 will be too happy to learn she was killed for a BET)
Then there's Abraham demanding SLAVE girls to shack up with....
i'm currently cleaning up our bookcase and need to decide what goes into the trash.
i'll keep the watchtower books that are not available online anymore (e.g.
the brown "reasoning" book).
I'm interested in studies in the scriptures and the James book if anyone has it. I have some but lost a lot in a separationš

Anything that's not available on their CD Rom. They can always claim that anything in pdf form is altered by apostates, so a hard copy as evidence is essential. If someone is ready to wake up, things that wtbts wrote in the past *can* be hugely important as evidence of ttatt.
You could offer them for sale or free If postage is paid as many exJW collect them for that very reason.
What books do you have if you don't mind my asking?

This religion puts our kids in danger by forcing them to live a double life and making them vulnerable to the unscrupulous who appear to proffer help.
i have a legitimate question and i am not trying to start a fight.
i keep reading that there were 6 child abuse lawsuits that settled for 13 million dollars.
how do people like barbara anderson or jwsurvey or jwfacts come up with this number?
Richard does it really matter what the exact amount is? The fact is Watchtower has settled many cases with ( I'm sure to everyone here) what are large sums of money. Whether it's 500,000 or 50,000 per person doesn't really matter in my view. The fact they did so speaks volumes.
this is my first time making an o.p.
an elder told me that he had access to a website online that had all the old bound volumes and books.
also, he made sure to say it was not an apostate website, but a 'legit' website made by brothers.
You can access them all at avoidjw.com. Obviously this is not a site maintained by "in" jw's but all the old Watchtowers and books are there and most of the old Awakes I think. The only "legit" as he calls it he site is the online Watchtower library at me.org. It only goes back as far as 19i0 I believe for obvious reasons. It's the same as the CD Rom you can obtain.
Welcome by the way. Also have you checked out exjwreddit?Another great resource.

tim rymel, m.ed.. governments who support āreligious freedomā over the equal human rights and dignity of others condone, and even endorse discrimination.. 05/06/2017 11:27 am et | photo ā flickr/ justin kern .
government endorsement of any religious ideology creates religious extremism.
he seems intent on sprinkling the word "extremist" through the article and never quite explains how those who believe they are the only true believers are extremists.
She makes it very clear that extremism stems from the *belief* that God has given *your* human religious leader a revelation that you and have the only true religion - that those who do not identify as belonging to your belief system and live by your " revealed" standards are inferior, "less than' human beings deserving of death and destruction. As she says, "any religion that denies the *value* and humanity of others is extremist".
Witnesses absolutely deny the value of others and their "othering" behaviour in any other context but religion would be considered highly offensive and downright illegal in many instances.
Their belief's lead to behaviours and although at present it is only dangerous to themselves, think blood doctrine and suicide due to shunning and sexuality, that definitely places them squarely in the extremist category imho.
we are sick with sin and weāre trying to get well, right?
2. when you hire a coach to get you to the playoffs and win the big game, yet you lose...lose...lose.... do you fire him, or, do you keep him on?
well, then, how do you explain fred franz being made president after the 1975 fiasco?.
"At times explanations given by Jehovahās visible organization have shown adjustments, seemingly to previous points of view. But this has not actually been the case."
Steve I know that google-de-gook off by heart - the infamous " tacking" article, Watchtower lst December 1981.
Brilliant post Terry as always.
