List of Prominent JW Urban Legends...
by Tuesday in
1. jw
2. friends
hey folks,.

i'm wondering if you all could help me with my next video that i want to put up in the next couple of days (though i'm hoping for tonight), i want to come up with a list of the most prominent urban legends surrounding jws and then refute them whatever they may be.. i'm thinking there's the urban legend about the question on jeopardy that said the nwt was the most accurate would be a good one.

that one stems from an online powerpoint presentation named theological jeopardy and a book which was written comparing six different translations of the bible.

February 2010 Study Watchtower - Millions Now Living 'May' Never Die
by Marni Mai in
1. watchtower
2. bible
just noticed that in the february 2010 study edition of the watchtower, they refer to the "millions now living will never die" talk in 1918, but they have changed the title to "millions now living may never die".

only problem, they included the picture of the invitation to the talk, which says 'will'.. ooops.

it's on page 16. enjoy.. .

Are the Dubbers still preaching the end is very close?
by dogon in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
we use to joke around and use the line from danny deveto on romancing the stone where he is asking michael dougless when he is coming back, soon very soon as a way to make fun of the believers who would keep telling us on stage the end was soon very soon.

they started this after the 75 and 2000 failure.

what are they saying now?.

Salvation Army - JW's don't donate, but would they accept help
by Bonnie_Clyde in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i just did a quick search on the wt cd and confirmed that that jehovah doesn't approve the salvation army.

but would a jw accept help from them just like they will accept help from the red cross?.

btw, clyde has been asked to do a little bell ringing.

A Sister and a Brother alone
by Lilycurly in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i've been looking in the watchtower library all morning and can't find anything.. i know that jws have this rule (is it unwritten??

) where a brother and a sister should not be left alone in a car, a house, or any private place.

but my jw father says it's not so, and he spent a part of yesterday installing a computer program at a jw couple's house while the man was at work and the wife was at home.

How far would you go to protect your fade?
by jabberwock in
1. jw
2. friends
trying to fade inevitably involves some compromises.

still, i wonder how far i would be willing to go in order to leave on my own terms and not be disfellowshipped or pushed to disassociate.. at what point would you just give up and let them disfellowship you or send in a letter of disassociation?.

what would you do if someone found your copy of of crisis of conscience?.
