Rutherford v. the WT on Investigating Truth Claims
by Ding in"... there are some who who point out that the organization has had to make adjustments before, and so they argue, 'this shows that we have to make up our own mind on what to believe.
' this is independent thinking.
why is it so dangerous?

Matt 19:6 - WTB$ preaches the sanctity of marriage but see what happens when one partner leaves the bOrg!
by punkofnice inmrs punk was not a happy bunny when i announced i was leaving the wtb$ as it was all a big farce.. she has been quite rude to me, she walked out one weekend and came back 2 days later from staying with a relative.
she told me about all the negative reasons i left (attributing the 'evil' to me and none to the holy 7 headed beast the gb).
she has told the teenage kids they are not to listen to me.. she refuses to talk bible and gives me the 'talk to the hand sign' on the basis she refuses to listen to my 'spiritual pornography' (now there's an appealing thought!!).

Have you considered the fact there is NO pure, useful Doctrine necessary?
by Terry infor fifteen hundred years, the only christian church officially vested with authenticity was the catholic church.. at least, this was their claim.. authority, so they said, was passed on to them by jesus himself when he established peter as "upon this rock" (peter=petra_).
peter was the church's first "father" or papa=pope.. additionally, the entire tradition of teachings from jesus forward gave them magesterium.
when official pronouncements were made about faith and morals these teachings were binding on earth and in heaven.

Do you view the word "Apostate as derogatory"
by mankkeli ini just want to know how friends feel about the word "apostate" when being used to refer to them?, do you feel relegated?..
-

Hi mankkeli. I see two different versions of ' Apostate '. The JW version : because you left the ORG. Then the worlds verion: you left the teachings of christ. If a JW calls me one I just laugh. If the world calls me one then I take it seriously. Just my 2. peace paulnotsaul

What is the oldest car you have owned?
by moshe inhere is mine- a 1947 chrysler windsor club coupe.
i overhauled the engine under a big oak tree- push button starter- flat head 6cyl engine- a carry over from ww2 technology.
a real tube radio, which after i fixed, could pick up am stations over 500 miles away- seats like an over stuffed sofa.

Do you think Jehovah's Witnesses have more attractive young adults than average?
by sabastious ini was recently hanging out with someone that went to the convention last weekend.
he/she mentioned that the convention was chock full of hotties and from my memory of the conventions, and i have been to dozens, he/she was right.
one thing that comes to mind is that witnesses can lose privileges within the congregation if they are too dirty so cleanliess (neatness) is especially important.

Whats the average? Amish, Mennonites. Then yes I think JW's young adults are more attractive. peace paulnotsaul

Why do Jehovahs Witnesses send their mentally ill door to door?
by life is to short inthis has been a question i have asked over and over even when i was a very devout jw.
please do not get me wrong in thinking that i am trying to be mean or cruel or unkind to those who have mental illness, that is not in the least where i am going with this.
what i mean is i think it is cruel to send them door to door, it puts way to much stress on them and it looks bad for the name jehovah.. it seemed that in every hall i have ever been in there were some people who were extremely mentally ill. there have always been some in every hall who were schizophrenics or suffered major depression, or other forms of mental illness.
