Just remember, if the lifeguards tell you not to go swimming because it isn't safe, don't let the pack of 8 year old kids playing in the waves fool you or you're gonna get drilled!

I NEVER Hear A JW Talk About Never Dying & Living Forever In Paradise Anymore!
by minimus ini was raised with this belief, that we would never die and actually make it into the "new system".
mu faithful jw aunt still talked about my mother (her sister) and her walking together into the great tribulation--- and never die at all!
she spoke of that 2 days before she passed away.. i believe most witnesses expect to die and then get resurrected.

I think they stay because the society make them feel worthless, prevents them from learning to take care of themselves and then threaten to kick them out if they mess up. But don’t worry we will all be going to God's Disney Land real soon now!!!
They remind me of an abusive husband that traps his wife into staying with him by belittling her and not allowing her to have a job or go to school so she has no choice but to stay.

Do any ex JW' s/ God believer's, Agnostics or Atheists believe in Karma? And WHY?
by rip van winkle injust reading a thread and the mention of karma popped up.
( it happens, lol).
a lot of people believe in karma: what goes around comes around.. some months ago, while on another exjw site, karma was mentioned and i thought it a little odd, as they are atheist.

Even if someone or something did create our universe it is yet another leap to say that somone had a direct hand in creating us.

WATCHTOWER STUDY EYE-OPENER!
by The Searcher inat the start of today'swatchtower study, i did a little mental exercise - every time the words 'god' or 'jehovah' appeared, i substituted them with the words, 'the organization'.. if you are going to a meeting today, try it, and see how very different (and truthful!
) the watchtower study becomes!

A Saturday Knock on the Door & the JWN Forum
by kepler inthis is, of course, a recurrent topic that's made possible whenever a kingdom hall decides to march out on your neighborhood and street.. today it happened again in my neighborhood as a drum up for the memorial observance scheduled for monday the 14th of april.. why christ's passion and death should be observed on a monday of holy week i failed to ask this morning.
perhaps someone else might like to volunteer, but it seemed just another reason to be sceptical about the whole thing, though hardly ranking with changing ancient chronologies to get jerusalem's temple destruction 2520 years before 1914.. anyway two gentlemen in white shirts and ties greeted me politely enough at my door and presented me with a flyer about an event which they described as momentous.
they asked me if i had ever intended one and i assented.

Why Christ's passion and death should be observed on a Monday of Holy Week
Do you mean how do they pick the day to celebrate? They always observe it after sundown on the day that corresponds to Nissan 14th or 15th (I forget which). I just know it is usually on the first full moon after the spring equinox.

Cosmos--any creationists watching? And what does EVEryONE think of it?
by Jon Preston ini just finished the episode about the extinctions and the tree of life and how life evolved.
my wife asked me "what, do u believe in evolution now?
because im watching a science show?

I hope somebody understands my point.
will be apostate I do.
I find that science is often portrayed as if it is a fact or a proven theory even when there is no possible way they could know for a certainty. Certainly there are many scientists who aren’t like that but it bugs me when someone says they know for a fact what happened billions of years ago billions of miles away.
And I bet your 50% prediction is way too optimistic.Of course I won't likely be here to pay up....
Just an fyi that I didn't watch the show yet.

Pushing the JW.ORG

i had not realized that they were really pushing their site.
this was at our farmers market, although they were not officially in the market area but off the side on the sidewalk.. .

JWs are into guerilla marketing who knew? Almost seems a bit clever. They know that nobody will come over and talk and they know that if it said jehovah’s witnesses on the sign or in the URL nobody would go to the website. But jw.org is easy to remember and might just get a few curious ones to head over on their mobile device after seeing it. Might work even better if they would get rid of the creepy guy hiding behind the pictures.
It seems a little deceptive to me. Did Jesus use tricks to when he did his preaching?
Wonder if we will start seeing jw.org signs around the conventions in years to come. Oh wait this is the last year there will be a memorial so it stands to reason it’s the last year there will be conventions as well.
