  Anybody's cong. not use trolleys?

  all this talk about trolley witnessing made me think- our hall has at least two of them, maybe 3. and i have never seen them used.

  they just collect dust in the closet.

  it's not for lack of somewhere to use them; we have territory spanning several cities, we have plenty of summer fairs/fests, but nobody will take them out.

  Why didn't Jehovah know the flood wouldn't work?

  this has been something that is bugging me lately-.

  jehovah is all knowing.

  he knows that to do away with evil, he has to do away with satan.

  i was thinking the other day (i know, i know, bad dub, no thinking allowed!)...

  did you ever notice the screwy logic that we are led to believe is the truth?

  like ezekiel 33:8:.

  "The governing body has asked me to..."

  i have heard that phrase several times on the jw broadcast, uttered by gb members!

  "the governing body has asked me to bring to your attention (whatever)".

  aren't you the governing body?

  How did you feel when "your book" was discontinued?

  by OverlappingGeneralizations in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i didn't know where to posts this, i hope "friends" is ok-.

  how did you feel when the book you studied in was deemed "discontinued"?

  for instance, when i was studying, i studied the knowledge book.

  The salvation paradox

  by OverlappingGeneralizations in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  another thing that has bothered me-.

  if the righteous and the unrighteous will be resurrected, and will have the same chance at paradise as the hard-core dubs, what was the point of being hard core?

  i know the point used to be "well, armageddon is gonna happen this weekend, and you'll survive and they won't!

  Public Prayers - Scriptural?

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  something that has always been a pet peeve of mine- public prayers.

  is that even scriptural?

  i know many churches (along with the jws) do it.

  Perfection? Ponder this...

  by OverlappingGeneralizations in

  1. watchtower

  hello all- nice forum.i have been contemplating a fade for a while, and i have been reading various sites such as this one.

  i have seen all kinds of things that have made me think.

  but something came to mind lately, and i wanted to throw it out there-satan was cast down to the earth, and he is supposedly the cause of all imperfection.
