  IF God exists and we are his children then I don't agree. As a parent I want my kids to be happy every minute of every day where ever they are.

  This caused a real shit stir amoung witnesses at the time. What I found funny about the first video was at 1:03, 1:04 was my cousins and grandmother in the shot. (Tall redhead, girl with glasses and the old bird between them) The cousin on the right was abused by an elder down in Tasmania and the old girls husband, our grandfather, abused me and my other cousin (these two girls brother).

  please take a look at pages 24,25 of the october 1, 2011 public watchtower, including the illustrations.

  what do you think about it?

  i have a couple of rather strong thoughts regarding it, but i want to hear others views, as i might just be a paranoid lunatic :).

  The title of the article should have been "Stay awake at the meetings or you will die.''

  My Father passed away during the night

  dad was a great man, great, despite the religion.

  he was powerful, tall and intelligent, yet humble and kind.

  he was an introvert, and a circuit overseer.

  Well said Oz. I've been asking myself the same question lately and came up with a similar answer. I'm equiping myself to save my kids from guilt and fear and give them a normal life.

  What is Awake! supposed to be good for?

  by dgp in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  it is clear to me that the watchtower is a mix of official daily and official organ.

  what gets published there is not only the "truth", but also the law.

  what is the awake!

  An Honest Encounter At The Door!

  by Bangalore in

  your religion is false.. householder: false?

  you see, the "truth" of our religion is self-evident in our beliefs.

  witness: well, the bible does say that.

  Brilliant. Reminds me of when my step daughter (about 10 at the time) came home from the park with the kid from next door in tow. "Mum I was just telling Vivian how she and her family are going to die at Armageddon if they don't become Jehovah's Witnesses. Can you tell her why?" Hilarious watching my ex trying to explain her way out of that. I'm sure the other kids very religeous parents loved hearing about that around the dinner table that night. Out of the mouth of babes.

  "The organization has never disappointed us..."

  by Franklin Massey in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in the simplified english edition of the july 15th, 2011 watchtower, in an article that warns jws about apostate influences, the following quote is given as a reason to stick close to the watchtower organization:.

  "the organization has never disappointed us and always gives us an abundance of pure waters of truth from god's word.".

  a scan of the page can be found here: http://www.jwfacts.com/images/watchtower-2011-jul-15-p12-apostates.jpg.

  I can think of quite a few victims of child molestation that are just a little disappointed by the organization. These guys really are deluded, pious twats.
