When You Were A Witness Did You Ever Celebrate A Birthday or Holidays?

i knew some families that celebrated "family day" on christmas eve or some time around the holiday.. i don't know of too many witnesses that actually celebrated but kinda came close....haha.

Yes we had the full thanksgiving spread on that Thursday growing up. I continue the tradition today, even staying home from the dreadful meeting. Unfortunately this thanksgiving I have a dreadful km school that weekend.

To Any Jehovah's Witness Reading This---Please Think About Getting Out!

i sympathize with you.

you may feel there's no where to go.

you might worry that you could lose all your friends and family.. you might believe it's better than the other religions and you should just "wait" on jehovah/the organization.. you might have doubts but you might feel a spiritual connection.. all i can suggest to you is to please think about your life.

Thanks Min. I have thoroughly enjoyed your posts over the passed 10 years. Keep it up.

Good advice. For some though, it is an over-simplification. It is not so easy to leave. I wish I could, if my wife would join me I could care less about the rest of my family. I wish my relationship was certain enough that I would know for sure if it would survive with me being an apostate but she is too attached to her family. I guess time will tell.

In Your Estimation What Percentage Of Witnesses Actually Believe They Have The "Truth"?

by minimus in

i think 60% think or hope it's all what it's cracked up to be and the others are just there for different reasons.. what do you think?.

XBEHERE

80-90 percent. However if you were to estimate how many believe that the WT Org is still on the right track then that % would be less I think. Doctrinally it all sounds good, but many JWs are begining to realize that the org is screwed up.

Evidence For Impending Change Re: "Loose Conduct" to "Brazen Conduct"

by DarioKehl in

on another thread discussing possible changes to the nwt, the post refered to a 2nd-hand report of a co leaking possible changes to 5 verses where "loose conduct" would be replaced by "brazen conduct.

" although it is merely speculative at this point, i would like to remind those of you who did attend the 2012 dc this summer about some important evidence that supports this theory.

if the program is still available on jw.org, feel free to see this for yourselves.

btw the so called special elder's school (km school) is starting the new service year not in January. I am scheduled in November. This school was all of a sudden added recently so something is up.

What's up with this?!? - The Newbury Park KH in California has a Facebook page!

by 00DAD in

there is a facebook page for the kh in newbury park, ca!!!

i thought facebook was part of the evil social media from satan?!?.

this must be a rogue congregation ... lol .

XBEHERE

At the last km school they specifically stated that this is not to be done. Congregations are to not have any website, email address, twitter account, or Facebook page period! They are going to get a "spanking" from their CO.
