well, i have been lurking on this site for several months and i recently decided to join as a member.

i have made several observations and would like to make a few comments.. first, i am perplexed by the attitude of many on this site that are either former or active (but apostate) jws.

they seem to have a strong hatred for the wts and also for rank and file jws.

A Thread for Cyclists - Where Do you Ride?
by cofty in
1. social
2. physical
i took up cycing a couple of months ago just to get fitter and lose a bit of excess weight.. i bought a second-hand hybrid bike (weighs only slightly less than a truck) and fitted road tyres.

four or five times a week i will go for a ride after work for an hour or so.

i am fortunate enough to live in rural north england surrounded by limitless quiet roads.

Friends of Bill W. W Must Stand for WTF?

2. beliefs
i keep crossing paths with people who are in recovery, that is, recovering from drug and alcohol addiction.

these folks regularly attend alcoholics anonymous and narcotics anonymous meetings and are all somewhere in the process of working the 12 steps of recovery.

the organization denies affiliation with any legal entity; a blatant deception, a lie they tell new ones and each other at each and every meeting.

what if the watchtower stuck to their guns and didn't change the "generation" understanding?

when they came up with this totally ridiculous "overlapping generation" concept, i knew something was wrong.

there are people still alive who lived in 1914 today, they could have stuck to their guns or went with genesis 6:3, "after that jehovah said: my spirit shall not act toward man indefinitely in that he is also flesh.

Proof of God or Christ without a holy book
by Awen in
1. jw
2. friends
in some previous posts i have asked certain questions that still haven't been answered.

so without going back to those threads and possibly de-railing them i thought it best to make a new topic.

please bear with me.. i have asked certain ones to prove the existence of god or christ without referencing any biblical writings or characters.

this is my first time participating in a site like this , so please.

forgive me if my approach is clumsy.. my story is not extraordinary and hardly interesting, so thanks.
