JWs having Facebook Sex - Strongly warned to get off FB at CA yesterday
by shopaholic in
1. jw
2. friends
so it appears that jws are letting their freaky side come out on fb for everyone to see.. there was talk on the ca yesterday strongly warning all true lovers of jehovah to delete their fb accounts.

the talk was solely about fb.

the speaker mentioned that jws are associating with people that would not associate with in real life, often using the excuse that the person is a relative.

can anyone help me with a quote from a publication studied in '09 that had a box that said jws leave over selfish reasons but not over doctrine?

i think it was studied in the bs but i can't find it and i already tried the search feature.

i remember someone posted about it at the time it was studied.

Helping others

i have recently become aware of many inconsistencies that we teach as jw's and it has really distressed me.

a few from our cong here in ireland get together and discuss the real truth from the bible.

we were wondering teh best road to go down to help others find out thetruth, without being labelled as apostates, esp at assemblies etc.

it's very interesting comparing things that are removed.

for one, new world order and new world, new order, all being eliminated from everything.

just research nwo, "new world order", etc, to see.

A Sphere is Not a Circle

this thread was inspired by the poster here with that moniker.

that name, for the first time in my life, caused me to think deeply about the scriptural real meaning of the phrase used in isaiah, often used by biblical defenders to show it's inspiration by god.. i googled the phrase, and among other hits, found this little blogspace with comments that echoed my thought on the matter.. http://www.youngausskeptics.com/2008/12/what-you-really-think-a-sphere-is-a-circle-you-really-think-that/.

found it interesting.. jeff.

Christmas & JW objection
by Luo bou to in
1. jw
2. friends
jw's reject christmas because of its pagan origins.

it's not what it meant to people in the distant past that matters but what it means to us living today.

does anyone today visit a person's house see a christmas tree and think oooh he must be a pagan.

The Dublin "apostasy" after Ray Franz incident - searching for the audio testimony of John May
by Nostromo in
1. jw
2. friends
google is not my friend anymore, it seems, i cant find a thing.. i was searching for the audio file where john may, the elder from dublin, tells his story when he traveled to brooklyn to find out the truth about the ray franz incident.

i do not mean the talk of his that you can find on 4jehovah.org or 4witness.org, this was a different audio testimony where he just basically tells what happened to him and to his irish elder friend merriman when they wanted to discuss the rf issue with the gb.

i had this file once but cant find it anymore.

dear readers of revelation,.

i have been reminded that a simple question is more effective than an elaborate presentation.
