  GB requirements

  by Scarlouie in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  has the requirements to be a gb member changed over the last 20 years.

  i was last a jw in the 80's and at that time i thought you had to be able to remember 1914?

  is my memory bad or was this a doctrine change?.

  How to question their beliefs

  by Scarlouie in

  1. social
  2. current

  i questioned my mom today about beth sarim.

  she of course had never heard of it, even after 40 years as a jw.

  neither of my sisters have every heard of the 1976 predictions either, they are both born in with elders as husbands.

  A bad memory of the Ark?

  by Scarlouie in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i have a lingering memory of an wt article about the ark being found and measured, this read as fact and not a working theory or a possibility.

  i was just a kid when i read it, but it stayed with me until i was a young adult and discovered that it was not true.

  does anyone else remember this article, or is this just a confused memory from my cracked youth?.

  Who converts and Why? SURVEY - Please contribute

  by Murray Smith in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i've read some random articles of late and have found a recurring factor which could well be answered effectively by many of the posters here.

  basically the notion relates to what makes one vulnerable to indoctrination into a high-control religious cult and goes lke this .

  while most, if not all humans seek group approval and association to some degree .

  What will the excuse be?!?

  by brotherdan in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  so we've all heard the ramblings of obves and larsinger about the coming end of the world this year or next.

  i want to know what you think the exuses will be when they do not come.. harold camping is the one proclaiming may 21, 2011 as the time of the rapture and october 21, 2011 as the end of the world.

  when no one disappears on may 21st, what do you think his excuse will be?
