  TV.JW.ORG (September 2015): Serving Single - Do not use JW dating sites!

  by Designer Stubble in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  around the 39:00 minute mark the focus shifts to a single sister who cannot find a mate.

  at the 42:30 minute mark she states "i cannot believe it crossed my mind...to look on jw dating sites".

  guess a new unwritten rule is added to the many oral traditions of these pharisees.

  first of all; i must admit that i'm not a huge fan of putting people in boxes like this, it is not an exact science.

  i'm curious about the following:.

  1) how long have you been a fader for?.

  2) how often do you still get pressure from congregation members and/or family to return as an active witness?.

  The Oesophagus of the whale shark and the story of Jonah

  by purrpurr in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  in the wt's literature it is often theorised that the "great fish" that swallowed jonah was a whale shark.

  indeed looking at whale sharks with their wide huge mouths it seems reasonable to think that a human could fit in there.... ... until that is you do any research on it.

  while the whales mouth is huge, it's oesophagus however is only a few inches wide.

  JW logo and symbolism

  by Illuminated in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  there's a recent thread regarding the jw indoctrination expressed on the net, particularly instagram.

  from an outsider looking in, i noticed this when looking through jw instagram profiles.

  it came off super cult-ish and robotic along with similar wording used as though everyone, male or female, is a stepford wife (watch the movie for those who haven't seen it).
