  Story: My first cats

  by Jim_TX in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it was sufficient for a single person such as myself, and i went about making it livable.. i got me a dog, weasel which i have written about and i then got me a couple of cats.

  this story is about how i acquired my first two cats.. i worked at a company where cats kinda got taken to and left.

  they were kinda wild after a while and other cats were born well, you know how it goes.. there was this one cute little female calico kitten that i would take lunch scraps to and others would also put out little bowls of milk for.. i started trying to get her confidence talking to her and letting her hear my voice.

  After 3 years the JWs are at my door

  by Lady Lee in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  who would have thunk?.

  well two little old ladies came knocking at my door, watchtowers in hand and their little sheets of paper.. well i asked them point blank if they had seen the show and one of them had and proudly told me that she had not only seen it but taped it.

  i suggested that the other go to watch it and she said she would.. gutsy little ladies i love them.

  Erica's Dateline interview

  by TweetieBird in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  others on this board have mentioned that the jw's have dismissed erica's interview as "lies" because she wore a cross.

  i didn't even notice the cross as i was busy concentrating on what she was saying.

  however, in dubville, one must quickly discredit what a perceived opposer is saying or doing.

  New WTS Rules for elders & Child Abusers

  by Cappuccino OC in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  per my uncle who is an elder:.

  anyone who has a criminal record can't have any privileges from now on per the wts.. my conclusions:.

  so what about the child molesters who have abused children who have been disfellowshiped, pardoned, or who have sincerely repented of their wrongdoingsbut the authorities were not notified?.

  Who was right? Satan or Jehovah?

  by professor in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  satan is called the "father of the lie" because he told the very first lie to eve.. in the beginning, god told adam to go nuts and eat all the fruit except the fruit from the tree in the middle of the garden.

  he said "but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall die.

  so then fast forward, eve was created and she's hanging out by the tree, talking to the serpent (satan) and satan says: "you will not die.

  Questions From Readers-Complete Immersion?

  by Mister Biggs in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  must one get baptized (complete immersion) no matter how severe their handicap?.

  (paragraph 2, sentence 3..."since baptism by complete immersion is a scriptural requirement, humans have no authority to exempt someone from baptism.".

  my thoughts: what elder/co/do will dare take a risk in exempting one from baptism if they have been told by the society that no human has the authority to do this?

  by CrazyArms in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  is anyone out there familiar with the now almost legendery jw "true" story about the demon possessed smurf doll that got up and stormed out of the watchtower study screaming "that's a load of crap" in response to an answer to a question being given by a brother concerning the final destruction of satan?

  i'm also interested to learn of any similar incidences.
