  Sorry, I was tired when translating. Around midnight. Translating using JW speak killed some of my brain cells. 

  If you find anything else, feel free to correct it.

  Playing ball ball with your dog makes you Satanic? Weird how they see Satan everywhere. Kinda like someone saying they see dead people everywhere.

  How utterly psychotic.

  Now we know why those loons don't go door to door. People would be calling 911 about mentally disturbed men knocking on doors in their neighborhood all day.

  Building 500 new kingdom halls?

  the wtbts has to know they aren't actually going to see their numbers significantly jump anytime soon/ever right?

  are they planning on cutting the rbc down to 1/10th the work force so they can actually slow down their kh projects instead of increasing them?

  or do they think their little website scheme is actually going to bring in more people?.

  so after the 2 special pioneers visited i thought i had given them an earful about the arc and the pedophile problem in their organization surely they would have put me on the do not call list.. oh, no not my luck i get an elder and his lovely little mute wife with infant child in the stroller this morning at 9 am.

  don't these people have a job to go to?

  it was a car with 3 men & a woman.. we go through the standard do you read the bible yada yada, i tell them i know the routine very familiar with your game.

  I'm still trying to figure out how video footage of trial testimony is an "apostate" lie. It's just court footage like any other.

  What was said was what was said.

  Itsi easy to tell other people to stand fast when it isn't your life on the line and you're thousands of miles away living a life of considerable ease.

  If people in your town are trying to hurt you 'cause you keep coming to their doors 'bothering' them, it's not the best practice to go out in Field service. That's plain dumb and Christ told his disciples NOT to do that. Did any of the Apostles return to places they had to escape out of? No. If they are not interested leave them alone.

  Shake the dust off your feet. You can speak to someone showing interest informally.

  Another generation....

  by joey jojo in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  it has been 21 years since the 1995 article that pretty much buried the idea of the '1914 generation'.. remember those guys?

  the ones born in 1914 that would still be alive when the end of the system arrived.. i'm glad i'm old enough to remember going from door to door, preaching this belief.

  the reason i say that is because i have a lot of 'still in' jw friends and family.

  None of the dates make sense. Astrology isn't for professed Christians.

  It's no one's business to be guessing dates.

  1. It makes you look like a fool.

  2. You're saying The Word of God (aka Jesus Christ) is a liar.

  3 The Spirit IS Truth. So you call God's Spirit a liar when you present false dates while claiming to have the Holy Spirit / being "Spirit directed".

  4. If you claim the dates were "Spirit directed", then you are absolving any human of error. Ie. Jehovah is wrong and about his own date at that.

  From a Christian perspective this makes the one claiming such things : vainly INSANE

  Update on my recently disfellowshipped niece

  by keyser soze in

  i had posted about a month ago that my niece, who just turned 15, was getting disfellowshipped.

  i learned this past weekend that she tried to commit suicide.

  between being df'd, and her dad not being around, it became too much for her.

  This is why baptizing those under 18 yrs of age should not be allowed. Why make fun of Catholics for baptizing babies when you in essence are doing the same thing?

  A teenager going through the hormone imbalance stage of life has no business getting baptized. They aren't even through the 'I need my peers to like and accept me' phase of life.

  I'm glad to hear your niece is doing better. May her progress continue.

  I'm getting baptized

  i know i've started similar topics before but this time i'm serious.

  my parents have been constantly pressuring me and after yesterday's watchtower study they asked me if i was going to be baptized this summer... and i said yes.

  i probably should have thought about it more before making a final decision, but they're pretty much forcing me to do it anyway.

  In the US it's a Title 6 violation, a federal crime, and child abuse.

  Your parents cannot force you, an underage dependent, to submit to a legal contract you do not want. Religion or no religion.

  Biblically, it is extremely unscriptual. No forced baptisms in there.

  Your are allowing your parents to make your baptism a lie to God.
