  MEMORIAL AT THE KINGDOM HALL OVERFLOWING WITH NEWCOMERS?

  by steve2 in

  this is a question for those brave souls who, for whatever reason, attended this year's memorial: .

  who else was there?

  was there any evidence that the witnesses are still attracting a large crowd of "newly interested ones" (to use their awful phrase) or even complete strangers drawn in by the door-to-door work.. i hear lots of comments about how poorly attended some of the weekly meetings in the halls have now become, so i'm curious about what you guys may have seen when you attended in the past day or so.

  well i went with the wife today to the sunday circuit assembly.

  it is really sad to listen to the talks and see the many people that i know.

  one talk actually suggested that wisdow is wrong , to me it was just more support that we have all you need why do any research on your own.

To think that some smart people that I know swallow this completely and will never check into anything that they are taught. They will most of them continue to serve this publishing company all of their lives and never get away from it. But maybe "they can't handle the truth" as Nickolson said.

  On another note satan was getting a lot of blame today. Satan caused this, satan will cause that, satan dosen't want you to be a witness. Me thinks he gets too much credit. How about you? Im not sure if he exists or not but it gets sickening after awhile.

  Anyway that was my day,it is 8 hours that I will never get back.

  I enjoyed most of it particularilly that the new testament was chosen by the catholic church. I did not know that before. I told some JW's that and they said it was not true. I just said do the research for yourself. stuck in

  here's mine :.

  back in the early 90's we went to the sunday talk and wt study.. lo and behold, a friend from the 70's who was df'ed ( he had just been reinstated) was there along with his parents.

  i had no idea that they would have been there.. one of my kids was getting sick, so my wife and i were up-down the entire meeting walking him around.

  Every last F n one of them! Really though there were a lot that I hated. When I was a kid we used to go to unassigned territory for the day on Sunday and then at 5 pm have the meeting in that territory as a kid it took my whole Sunday and I absolutely hated it. I would much rather have played ball or rode my bike. stuck in

  Why I no longer believe the Bible is "God's Word" and I no longer believe in "God"

  by lifeisgood in

  i became a christain at the age of 9. not by going to a church or asking a preacher to baptize me, or anything like that.

  i started reading my mother's king james bible cover to cover at the age of 8. my father was very abusive and when he was abusing me, i would close my eyes and pray.

  i never hated my father, which is one good thing i got out of prayer.. when i turned 13 i became a lay preacher and traveled, on my own, preaching in any church that would let me.. when i was 15 i studied with the jws and was baptized after four months of study.. i was a zealous christain but not a zealous jw, according to them.

  lifeisgood,

  Yes It is true all of the myths are essentially the same and truth be know the world needs them, the desire to live without myths has brought about the lives we all see today in the news. That said I beleive that we all have to live our own lives. We are the center of our universe and God is in us. This is the only life we have live it to the fullest and do what we want to do. There may be another life to come but it will not be this one. Be kind to others be loving to others. If all were to live their lives this way the world would be a better place but not in the way JWs say. Religion is just as ol RUTHERFORD SAID "A SNARE AND A RACKET" and the Watchtower is the worst of the worst.They promote hate not love, they destroy lives all in the name of religion and a false God.

  Since all must do what they want in life ie be religious, be athiest it is their choice do it. For these reasons I have given up trying to get my wife to leave the Watchtower that is her life I do not want it for me but I love her and will until the end. If she wants me I will be the best I can to her.

  I am now happy and look forward to the rest of my life. stuck in
