  Kids ... and baptism.

  by Tallon in

  i have noticed, from reading posts on this and other related websites, what to me is an alarming practice taking place within the jw's.

  and that is the baptism of kids.. on a recent discussion posted by pe ( video of the girl now forced to shun her sister) this child was baptised at 9 years old.

  all of us who were baptised at a much older age know of the many questions one needs to give serious consideration and understanding of to become eligible for baptism, not to mention the two baptism questions asked before being dunked.. surely the organisation must know that children of such a young age are not mature enough to fully grasp the seriousness, demands and consequences of making such a decision.. another point; if jesus is the example to follow, then why did he only get baptised at age 30, and he was perfect!.

  I doubt he was an elder at 19. The Ks book states clearly that even getting appointed as an elder in your late twenties are exeptions.

  Do you feel comfortable being an apostate?

  i always found it uncomfortable to informal witness to people but trying to convince a jw to jump ship brings much more pleasure..

  As long as you think in terms of appostate, you accept the authorities of the cult.

  Subliminal images - why and who are the individuals behind it?

  by UnshackleTheChains in

  i remember about 5 years ago reading on another site about subliminal images in wt literature.

  i honestly thought it a load of bs until i checked out one glaringly obvious image of a creepy skull in clouds within the knowledge book.

  i was shocked and even showed my wife at the time who thought it was creepy.. so my question is why?

  It is 18 years ago now that I worked temporary at Patterson and once I invited a french friend of my, a painter, artist from Brooklyn. So we had lunch and got to know a couple of guys from the art department, a bunch of looners, I tell you. Now thinking back of my time there, it was almost sinister, a very negative Place Patterson.

  Orphan, beside the word enemy, I see a strange double face.

  i have also attended spanish congregations.

  this has helped me to understand and respect totally different perspectives and narratives on race.

  please be respectful during this discussion.

  The jw is a white and AMERICAN religion, many things are even considered weird for us europeans, but god is american, not a DJ.

  JW renaming things: "It's Not this, it's ....."

  by Muddy Waters in

  this was brought up in another thread, but i thought it should have its own thread.

  feel free to add your own observations and experience.

  the jws are so duplicit, and they rename things to somehow justify their own irrationalities.

  Hou didn't sell magazines ( the good old days when you used to charge people), but placed them.
