  SUICIDE IN KH PARKING LOT

  by Sabine in

  1. social
  2. current

  last saturday, a former ministerial servant and pioneer committed suicide in the woodinville washington kingdom hall parking lot.

  he was disfellowshipped several years ago, and according to the old sister that related the story to me today, he was depressed because no one would talk to him.

  i don't know how i kept calm when she explained to me that "we couldn't talk to him...he was disfellowshipped.".

  That hurt me very deeply to read that story.

  There is so much "blood guilt" on the society's hands...

  DEAR WTS, I love your new director.......

  another example of gross hypocrisy - do they honestly think that these type of things will never be discovered?

  unbelievable.

  i suppose their excuse is that the shares were donated as gifts and through wills etc, yet surely they should not accept them if they are not appropriate to the teachings of the organisation.

  The watchtower has invested in government defense???

  Did they think no one would ever find out?

  I'm really disappointed....guess I'm not going to join back up now.

  They dont practice what they preach.

  I've been stumbled...

  JW's and drinking

  by DanTheMan in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  is it just me, or is alchohol consumption at parties and vacations virtually an unwrittten rule of jw-culture?.

  when i was in, i did not drink, and i still don't.

  i often felt almost ostracized for this by my jw associates.

  Dan,

  I think ...just like the Baptists...JW's dont tell other JW's that they drink.

  when i was in dub-dom....i used to hate eating out....my ex always made us bow our heads and close our eyes tight shut while he gave thanks out loud.

  did you do that in public??

  or did you do it discreetly with your head bowed but eyes not shut....or.....head in hand...hoping people would think u were in deep thought?

  Guys....

  Its not that complicated!

  If you are thankful for your food....and you believe God provided it for you....thank him..

  If you think you put it there...thank yourself

  Name some must have rock records

  by Leander in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've spent a lot of time on allmusic.com and it amazes me how much nirvana is mentioned when the reviewers rate other albums.

  so its a no brainer that nirvana's work should probably have a place in every rock collection, but what are some other albums every rock fan should listen to if not own.

  JW's in hell?

  by Preston in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  what do you think, if there is a hell, do you think jw's are going.

  i know (because of my lifestyle) if there is a hell i have a good chance of going, although the idea of spending an eternity with god's supposed people doesn't sound too thrilling, in which case i better practice a life of celibacy.

  i don't know what brought this post up, my friend just played me a clip from a south park episode where all the devout chrisitians go to hell, including jehovah's witnesses, and all the good mormons get spared (kinda funny in a strange sort of way).

  Well...simply stated...if there is a hell...and the JW's dont recognize Christ for who he really is....then Christ will say "I never knew you" to those who didnt claim him...

  Does make you wonder

  The Bible Does Not Condemn Witchcraft

  by Sirona in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the jws are against anything remotely pagan and they're certainly against witchcraft.

  they say the bible condemns it.

  scriptures such as exodus 22:v18 "you must not preserve a sorceress alive" (nwt) or as the king james version says "thou shalt not suffer a witch to live".

  Here is a bookmark to a www.biblegateway.com search that I made on witches....see how many verses show witches to be good.
