I'm not trying to antaganize or be inappropriate. I sincerely look forward to thoughtful points on the subject that I've come to expect from being here.

Welcome to the Great Tribulation, Folks!
by chipster inas i was in the dentists chair this morning, i got the news and my heart just sank.
i think of all those poor people and their grieving families, and my heart goes out to them.. well, you know, i have to say this: ....my money is on you.. i think you nailed it this time.... what is the verse about them "growing faint out of fear"???.
all i can say is..stay tuned.....you guys ain't seen nothing yet..... the fun begins when the terrorists are identified and recompense is sought by the united states.. oh, and not to mention the ramifications in the global markets..... yep, like i said folks...."welcome to the gt.....and the finale is the big a"... this is a day that will go down in world history.. chipster

jukief: Excellent post, those people just love to gloat about anything remotely close to what they say, the only reason 1914 still is kicking despite it's failed chronology is that WWI started then. They only got that 1/4 right but don't disagree or your out you bastards!! So much love they have when the interest of others sufferings is added up to how they percieve the notion of a composite sign.

I read in Penton's book the same thought of Rutherford wanting to jealously have the older Russell loyalists shave it off say as not to emulate the founder under the pretense of it being vain.

peacable = true religion
by Moxy inplease help me out a bit with this.. jws, as a religion, are taught to live peacably.
they do not go to war nor will they generally support it.. now, if i were to play the role of an apologist, i think i would just keep hamering on this point.
"catholic killing catholic and protestant killing protestant" was such a great phrase and ties in so nicely with johm 13:35. now, let me play devils advocate and hear some rebuttals.

I'm Confessing All! Or Maybe Not.........
by Englishman indo you think that confessing to misdeeds is a good thing?.
when i was a jw, i was brought up to believe that confession + genuine repentance = forgiveness.
now im not so sure that forgiveness is whats always needed.

As said previously and repeatedly very good post, one that I've actually thought about as well, it seemed once the elder's decided you were alright...pooof!, everything's just dandy now! No guilt immediately.
What's your take on "what they don't know can't hurt them"?

The DAY AFTER [Dateline]
by biblexaminer inwhat will happen the day after?.
i have a recent personal experience from "field service" that may shed a little light on this subject.. first, i do believe that many of my "bros and sises" will see this.
they are all dateline watchers, and just knowing their personalities, if they are able, they will watch.. will they talk about it amongst themselves?
-
Jim Lad
What pisses me off is that "Purple Triangles" was an independent documentary that they wanted to sponsor as it spoke positively about the JW's. Why won't they sponsor and distribute the Dateline episode at the local kingdom halls and watch with their bible studies??

For those questioning the F&DS
by ArgCampeon inan interesting scripture reminds us to be careful of those that question every good thing that the f&ds does:.
titus 1:10-16 .
"10 for there are many unruly men, profitless talkers, and deceivers of the mind, especially those men who adhere to the circumcision.
