Well, the age difference sounds like a big issue for her. Most women would probably agree that it is WAY more accepted if a 43 year old man is dating a 28 year old woman...hey "way-to-go, ya big mid-life stud" women generally don't get the same treatment, "Hey, is that your mom?" See what I mean? More power to the self confident gals that could give a you-know-what!

Why do they call themselves Christians?
by KistByQpid ini am not trying to be sarcastic.
however, it just doesn't make sense to me.
if a christian is one who "follows christ" how does that apply to the jw's?

Beck,
Yeah, it's a weird deal. I know my mom gets in a snit if the JW's are referred to as non-Christian yet at the same time wants to be totally distinguished from "Christiandom" or as she so delicately puts it "so-called Christians" LOL. I know they don't want that association! I've heard people from all denominations refer to each other as "brothers/sisters in Christ" and asked why they don't...I was told that "brother/sister" ONLY applies to fellow baptized JW's. Oh, well...membership has it's priviledges! I think it's all about whose at the of some percieved heirarchy.

we have ones who were former child abusers as we have ones who were former murderers etc etc, we do monitor these ones for the safety of our congregations and to uphold jehovah's clean standards.

There appears to be discrepancies between what Jesus said to do and what they actually do. Seems they follow the WT. Is it because they strive to appear mainstream? How can they deny the diety of Christ, not worship Christ and be Christian?

Terafera,
I can not imagine people eating out of dumpsters RATHER than accept help. It is sad to know they have such a aversion to those outside the KH.

Terafera,
Your story got my attention. I volunteer once a week at a Christian non-profit food pantry. They are non denominational and help those regardless of their religious affiliation. It is NOT a "mission" where they feed the homeless IF the hungry sit and listen to the gospel first. Well, my JW mom asked me if I could refer her JW friend to the program. She knows that I can personally refer one family every four months IF there are openings (right now the waiting list is long due to high unemployment in the area). I asked her, "What's going on?" Well, her friend's husband left her, she has chronic health problems (lupus) and has to make ends meet on disability. I asked if she could get help from the KH, in the meantime as it could take a few weeks. She said the brothers and sisters don't have a food pantry at the hall...she said something about it being an act of "works" HUH??? She then turned around and said something totally contradictory. She said that whenever there is an "emergency" in another country (like earthquakes)...the brothers and sisters donate and the brothers take the money directly to the location and help? I'm not saying they don't BUT I've never heard of their humanitarian relief efforts? Why would the JW's feel taking care of their own is an act of "works"??? What about the care of widows and orphans? Isn't this a Christians responsibility? I just don't get it.

"Daily asprin...Should I or shouldn't I?" HOLY OVER THE COUNTER BATMAN!!! You mean to tell me someone would seriously ask the powers that be at "Awake" for this type of advise??? Do JW's not see the total absurdity of such a question? I just don't get it.
