  2. friends

  that's a crazy question.. they really mean, "do you regret your decesion to leave".. ---.

  it's just an ice breaker to become nosy into one's personal life.. ---.

  btw, last time i was asked this, no, everytime i'm asked this i reply with: "i'm never coming back".. they seem to hear that.. .

  THE BLACK FRIDAY SALE of the year 1975

  by Terry in

  1. social
  2. current

  i was in federal prison (a prisoner of "conscience" in the time of the vietnam war) as a jw when the.

  wildfire got started about 1975 being the 'end' of six thousands years of human existence.'.

  all the brothers in seagoville federal correctional institution began parsing the implications.. if you mashed that phrase up into a meaningful communication from the faithful slave, what did it.

  Does Bethel have any woman Medical Doctors?

  by VM44 in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  the watchtower does not usually place women in positions of authority.. so, does anyone know if there have been any female medical doctors (any type, md, do or chiro) that worked at bethel recently?.

  the only one that i know of was dr mae j work, but she was at bethel over 70 years ago!.

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hi, i am also a practicing jehovah's witness and very proud of it,to say the very-very least..!

  i am a middle-aged man with many decades of being a witness of jehovah god in england.. this important letter is personally to you, just as many of the bible's 88 letters are to be taken personal by you the reader.

  i am writing to you to urge you to take stock of your life, think what your future holds for you.

  • Yes, that is intentional and calculated. It's N Korea tactics. Why does the org have to say over and over "listen to me", "obey me", "listen, obey, and be blessed", etc.? If it had acquired a record of being right over the years, it wouldn't have to keep telling everybody "listen to me". People would naturally want to listen to it.

  Excellent point...

  • How can you even begin to reason with that kind of thought prosess?

  Reason is the capacity for consciously making sense of things, applying logic, for establishing and verifying facts, and changing or justifying practices, institutions, and beliefs based on new or existing information.

  JW are not allow to use reason and logic to prove their belief...only believe what the watchtower is teaching at any given time!

  Take away a persons reasoning capability and you can control them forever.
