  Pray for death of Apostates

  by tsarina in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i'm new here, so please forgive me if i'm getting this all wrong.. i read on one of the web pages that the society has written "we should pray for the death of apostates".

  i think this was a 2000 watchtower, but to be honest i was so shocked at reading it that i forgot to make a note.. .

  can anybody enlighten me please??

  Is that Kilmarnock, Wyoming or Kilmarnock, Afghanistan?

  Or is Kilmarnock one of the micro-moons of Titan?

  I'm being an ass.

  Accuracy in communications is just another way "the man" (in this case, ME) keeps you down.

  Evolution and Atheism - please help

  by Fernando in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  not being familiar with either, my question is:.

  what is the relationship between evolution and atheism?.

  i'd love to hear from anyone and everyone, and also from any perspective.. without limiting the conversation in any way, i would of course also appreciate comments that are simple, clear, direct and correct (as i don't have the capacity to do a phd in evolution or atheism)..

  DA: Today I used my typewriter and fountain pen

  by Mandrake in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  last week my mother (i live with her) gave me some clues that she finally awoke, and well, that came to be true and we now speak openly against many many things i considered taboo to talk to her.

  so with that achieved, it was time for a delayed duty, i took my typewriter one wrote my da letter, and signed it with my favorite fountain pen, with my "trade mark" royal blue ink (everyone in the hall knew me for using that color and type of pen).

  i will hand it to the elders tomorrow, in february 14th, the "day of love".

  Congratulations, Mandrake, on taking the last step in becoming an XJW ( the first step in becoming an XJW is baptism).

  When you are comfortable with doing so, I'd like to hear more details about what issues led to you and your Mom opening your eyes.

  Congrats to your Mom too. Once our Cosmic Eggshell is cracked, it can't be un-crack it, even with Crazy Glue.

  I think I can have them made cheaply (in every sense of the word) enough at an orphanage I know of in the asteroid belt!

  I have just recently become aware that mentioning a COUNTRY is an effective way of answering the question "WHERE?"

  OH! Scotland! Cleverly concealed down there at the end of the article. Nicely played!

  This is EXCELLENT!

  I'm enough of a cynic to believe that this site is probably run by an apostate who is using "Yes, we are Jehovah's Witnesses" as a form of "Anti-Theocratic Warfare".

  Ask yourself, "who is entitled to a truthful answer to such a question?" A JW? Ha ha ha ha ha!

  Let the reader use discernment.

  from the time i was a small boy - i loved rock n' roll music.

  beatles, rolling stones, led zeppelin, hendrix.

  i started getting slighted for the music i listened to as i lay in my bedroom listening on headphones to led zeppelin's song " black dog " at age 14 with my elder dad looking suspiciously at me as i'm rocking out .

  Talesin, My jaw dropped when I watched episodes of "Gene Simmons' Family Jewels" and came to appreciate how different the man was from his public image. I urge people who haven't seen it to give it a viewing.

  He is a GENIUS in so many ways!

  Talesin, one of my many "ALMOST claims to fame" is that I went to the same Jr. H. S. that Chaim Witz went to. Although he is less than one month younger than me, I think he was a year ahead of me in school. I didn't know Chaim for the same reason I didn't know anyone else in any of my schools - it was forbidden.

  Today I have great admiration for him; he has been far more successful than any of the JW kids I grew up with, he has his head screwed on straight and his family is awesome - far more so than most of the JW families I knew.

  In my own case, my excursion into Dub-automaton-ism was so complete that I was self-regulating*; when I heard the music of Led Zeppelin or Cream or The Doors or Jefferson Airplane, I *knew* it was demonic.
