  some people are very suspicious of the police.

  some folks value policemen and women.

  i know i would be miserable if i could remember all my dead relatives.

  all my dead children, parents all my worldly family members and friends, yes and the billions of other people too.

  all the people jehovah will be killing off in the years to come.

  My experience has been that now, as we enter the second century of King Jesus' invisible imaginary rule, Jehovah is lovingly erasing all memories of the Watchtower Bible & Tract Society (WTB&TS) from my mind.

  HALLELUJAH, Brothas an' Sistas!

  Debate

  by gabcol in

  back in the day, russell and rutherford would hold debates with other religious leaders.

  why has jehovah's witnesses stopped doing that?

  i think it would be very interesting to see how they would hold up on a debate now.

  It seems a little historical review might be helpful.

  Back in the days of Pastor Russell, Russell and his traveling representatives ("Pilgrims") would happily debate other religious leaders. Russell's message was something new and the popular religionists were not very skilled in debates.

  Year passed thus; eventually a new member of Russell's flock named J.F. Rutherford had the bright idea to debate a popular religionist of the time.

  Pastor Russell asked J. F. Rutherford to cancel the debate. "Judge" Rutherford was sure of his skill and ignored Russell's request.

  Rutherford got his ass served to him on a silver platter by the religionist.

  Since then, representatives of the WTB&TS are discouraged from participating in any debates, but there is no way of preventing the occasional prideful fool from taking the bait and re-living Rutherford's experience.

  Frederick Franz, "Bible Scholar"

  as some of you know by now, i spent sunday, 7 august, renewing ties with a dear friend.

  we're both disfellowshipped, the difference between us being he is seeking reinstatement and i am not.

  we got into some very spirited discussions on different bible topics and one of them was the value of the new world translation itself.

  Do You Think Disfellowshipping Is The Worst Thing About Jehovah’s Witnesses?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the longer i’m out the more i feel that disfellowshipping is cruel.

  i understand the organization tells parents to not even accept emails or texts from their disfellowshipped children.

  while i was a witness they tried to discourage families from association but there was some leeway if it was considered necessary business to interact.

  Do You For The Most Part Trust The News Media?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the media is very powerful.

  many news people just want to get a scoop even if their breaking story isn’t checked out for accuracy.

  some journalists are precise and double check whatever they are reporting.

  Were You A Gullible JW?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i think every congregation has their group that sees everything as a sign that they are god’s chosen people.

  if a witness didn’t go to a meeting and a storm came and destroyed their house and killed them, and only the kingdom hall was saved, that was a sign that we should be in jehovah’s house.

  if russia persecuted jws , it’s proof we are living in the last days.
