  Demon-possessed inanimate objects

  by Dubby in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for years i heard stories that certain items in the home could be demon-possessed.

  i was told to be careful of items bought at garage sales because we didn't know their origin, or who or what they were used for.. did we own a ouija board before becoming a witness?

  could it be that items like these were creating misfortune?

  Liberal JW's

  by Dubby in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i admire the jw's who seem to be not too affected by what the society teaches.

  for instance; my brother became a jw when he met his wife, who was born into the wts.

  his wife and her family, always seemed to be very gregarious people, and enjoy life very much.

  New System Conundrum

  by RedhorseWoman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  does everyone remember the wt stating that in the new system, after everyone has been resurrected, there will be at least one acre per person?.

  didn't that seem like a lot of space to you?

  i know it did to me, growing up in a typical suburban neighborhood.

  Irony of "Rebellious" Youth

  by Pathofthorns in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've found it quite interesting talking to several young ones who lead double lives.

  the sad thing is, i don't find these ones so wicked.

  i find them basically good kids who got a little messed up because no one had any time for them, or attempts to relate were rather lame.. the irony is that while talking to one while he was smoking a cigarette, out of nowhere he says, "but i still believe its the truth".

  Demonised Smurf Doll

  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.

  What is the WT afraid of???????????????????

  by Zep in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ok, since it was so easy to get on here i'm assuming that this place is also over run by wts critics...but anyway!.

  i've read a plenty of wt mags and got sucked in enough by the whole thing to go to a few meetings and do a bible study( which i wouldn't really call a study, since we just read one of their books).i soon broke of the whole thing and didn't even read another mag for about 6 years...6 months ago i wandered into h20 out of curiosity and ended up reading up on the arguments against the wts.. i have a simple question, and its probably very naive to ask this...but why is wts so afraid of debate?...there are plenty of sites arguing against the wts...but none for, apart the official site which doesn't address the issues raised by so called "apostates" anyway.. if the wt has the the truth why dont they just refute the the arguments against them instead of shutting up shop and labelling anyone who questions them an "apostate?

  " or from satan or something.. i'm really beginning to think that all this wt business is just waste of time, that if i were to go to kh and ask questions that i have, i'm more likely to be labelled a trouble making agent of satan rather than be taken at face value as someone with serious questions.

  Reasons for becoming a JW?

  by Dubby in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm curious about the reasons for becoming a jw.

  if you were raised a jw, were you pressured into baptism?

  if you weren't raised a jw, what were the deciding factors?
