  i don't have to, fortunately, because i don't share my computer with anyone.. but i've been thinking, with empathy, about those that do.

  how far do you go to stop people realizing that you've been here?

  do you log in and out every time?

  I don't think it's a case of anybody that covers their tracks being afraid. More like, why upset members of your family if you don't have to. That will happen when and if your good and ready.

  Is there not a law against this in the U.S? Here it is "inciting religious hatred".

  REASON for new magazine arrangement.

  by hamsterbait in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as you know the way the rags are distributed to the congo has changed.. people just collect what they need at the kingdumb hell... this means that some who are not fast enough will not be able to get a copy.. more and more will start downloading the koolaid edition.

  when enough people are doing this, the slave will decree that it is no longer necessary for this to be printed and shipped, brothers may "avail themselves" of the opportunity to download their own copies.. this will save on printing, ink paper and shipping.

  will all that extra cash go to provide pensions and medical care for elderly bethhellites?.

  Do you really want to know

  by Voices in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  why there are so many reasons why there's no reason for everything?

  i mean if there's a reason for no reason then shouldn't the reason itself be a no reason at all?

  how reasonable is it to be in a no reasoning zone?.

  It's a bit like the concept of what do you find when you find nothing. Surely the nothing you find is infact the something that you were looking for?

  Years ago in one of the local congs, a young brother organized an outing to see a show at the theatre. Many went along, including elders and their families. At some point in the show there was some unsavory language and sexual innuendo, but nothing to strong. The WT the next day was talking about unwholsome entertainment, one of the elders that had attended the night before(idiot) stuck his hand up and said how unexpected and unpleasant it was for the group last night and that any brother organizing such events would need to show discernment.

  Following the comment, the young brother(organizer of event) puts his hand up and says "if last night was so bad then why didn't the elders take the lead in walking out". Silence followed for a while !

  Why DO Horrible Things Happen, Anyway?

  by Farkel in

  2. beliefs

  the insane things that occur to people who just happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time is scary and creepy to me.

  a little girl is holding her teddy bear and as a coincidence is tragically on that same street when a bunch of gang-bangers decide to stage a gun fight because someone looked cross-eyed at one of their girl friends (you mamy insert any other bullshit reason here), so they start shooting and the little girl is shot and killed because she is innocently in their cross-fire.

  when captured and arrested, the gang-bangers says they are "sorry" for snuffing out the life of that little girl.

  loz,

  :Farkel - I know of some people I could send round to knock on your door and help you answer those very questions !!

  Obviously, you don't know much about me! I could have any dub, MS, PO, DO or GB member drooling all over themselves in a few minutes. I am one of the worst, if not THE worst apostates-from-hell, with the knowledge and logic and words to make any dub wish they never came anywhere near me. I don't do many things well, but one of the things I'm pretty darn good at doing is destroying WT doctrine myths, fallacies and reducing crusading dubs into crybabies who are cornered without any arguments left to hurl back except personal insul

  And your motive in doing that, would it be for the good of the person or for personal satisfaction?

  Out of interest.

  We are not false prophets

  by Cook My Socks UK in

  below is the outline for a talk on the service meeting this week, i guess to help ones to answer the objection / accusation - how would you refute, if this reasoning was used by a jw at your door?.

  have not jehovahs witnesses made errors in their teachings?.

  jehovahs witnesses do not claim to be inspired prophets.

  Questions re the above:
  God has since long ago used prophets to direct/ guide people, tell of future events, convey his will... etc . So he used a “human channel”.
  Jesus also explained Gods will to his followers directly – this was obviously passed on through generations.

  If JW’s are not that channel today (imperfect though it would be), then who? Is there such a channel? Or has everything that needs explaining already been explained in the scriptures by ancient prophets / earthly channel?
