  What video games were banned when you were a JW teen?

  i'm not a jw, but i'm kind of studying to be one though.. now that's out of the way, i remember mortal kombat was banned within my home-my mom isn't too fond of blood in video games..but yet, she plays dinosaur crisis sometimes....but then again, that was when i was 9...lol now that i'm 15 and i wanted mortal kombat 9 (still) my mom stil lsaid no...but then again, she would let me play it online..i dont know why..its strange, but hey, whatever works for her and me i guess.. .

  um...lets see..any shooting games, or any games that has blood in it, she wont let me get.

  so i can still play fighting games, just not the ones with blood...eh, oh well.i'm surprised she even let me play "dead or alive" and "soul calibur"!

  My parents didn't care about the video games, because they were smart enough to know that violent games don't make people do violent things.
  
  But, the elders sure gave a damn. One time my friend was getting a ride home from field service. He started asking him what video games I played. He said he doesn't know. But the truth is that I play all the Halo games, 1,2,3,Wars,Reach,ODST, and a couple others like Half life, Call of duty. Generic teenager stuff.
  
  He used to come over to my house and play it everyweekend! I was lucky to have friends like that. Sad thing is that he got out of the org, and I'm still in.

  IS THE GOVERNING BODY NOW THE FAITHFUL AND DISCREET SLAVE?

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  .

  i know the anointed never get consulted.

  but is it true that the governing body has modified the definition of the faithful and discreet slave to exclusively apply to themselves and to not include the thousands of other anointed..

  @ Mrfreeze I had a comment I wanted to say. But decided to keep my mouth shut.
  
  There is one BOY age 11 that recently got baptized in my congregation. Obviously i dont want to pin point the child. But I do want to say something generic like. "We should follow Jesus's example, even though he was preaching at 12 (Luke 2:42), Jesus only got baptized when he was a mature adult"

  Is It okay for a Christian to join the military?

  by AiAi in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i recently enlisted in the army as active duty, havnt left yet, and am wondering if it is concientiously okay to do this as a christian?

  keep in mind there is a good chance i will see combat.

  i have already made my decision but am interested to hear others views.

  In my personal opinion I think no, because the primary purpose in the military is to kill.

  But, on the other side being a police officer is okay. An officer does not murder anyone. Murder is pre-medidated and planned. No officer wakes up and says I'm going to kill someone today.But in the life in the military it's all you plan to do.

  While an officer can go his whole carrer without firing at anyone. And even if he kills someone its killing them before they kill you or someone else.
  
  However the miltary when not in combat is perfect for helping people in disasters.
  
  sorry if i'm ranting on. lol
