  What is going ON?

  by Aintthatcute in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  first of all: i am new and have been lurking for about 2 weeks.

  whoow!

  glad i got that out of the way.. something that really bothers me is: when they say that the gb all the way down, elders, and ministerial servents are "appointed" by jehovah, and are deserving of "double honor".

  notice how very clean these jehovah's witnesses are as they laugh.

  and romp away from a scene of utter devastation of life & property.... and compare their cleanliness to the appearance of those frantic.

  The Hypocrisy of the Governing Body

  by radar in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if the rank and file members of jehovahs witnesses reject the watchtower's thinking on bible doctrine in some way, they are considered apostate.. yet the governing body of j.ws, themselves have rejected teachings of previous governing body members who have long since died and have proceeded to change interpreatation on things many times over,from russell to fred franz.

  guess what they call it..........apostasy?.

  no, this is called new light.. .

  Prevalence of JW Suicides - Real or Imagined?

  by AMNESIAN in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in one or two recent threads i've seen reference to the possibility of a rising number of jw suicides being another of the organization's very dark realities about which it is vigilant in keeping concealed from its pub populace.

  is there anyone reasonably informed regarding this?

  is there reason to suppose the incidence ratio among jws is any higher than among any peoples/religion?

  2. friends

  over the years, circuit servants and then circuit overseers came and went.
