Encounter with J.W's at wittnessing kart.
by karter inme-you allow pedophiles to go d2d and into peoples houses even when they have children.. j.w-no we don't.. me-the one that interfered with a relative of mine does and another i know who raped his sister does in fact he's an elder.. j.w-we cant stop them going d2d.. me- so now your saying they do go d2d you can't stop them,no you don't want to!.
j.w-it happens in all religions.. me- so that justifies sending pedo's into strangers houses.how would you like it if a pedo came to your place and you didn't know.. j.w- it happened to my mother and if he came to my place it knock him out.. me - but you have no problem with anyone from your church going to peoples houses even if they are a pedo.. we argued around in circles with him saying the elders may not know and me saying well i told them and so did the victim and he admitted to it ,then i told him about the r.c in australia and he said that could be anyone claiming to be a j.w could be on the stand ( by this time he was getting desperate)the i said like jeffery jackson?.
i told them to look it up on you tube.. i gave then the names and congro's the 2 pedo's are in and said i'd come back next week and see if they had checked it out.the lady's body language said she knew the elder that raped his sister as they are a well know family they were in the year book a few years ago.. stand by for next week.. karter.

"That happens in all religions."
"So you're admitting that your religion isn't any better than all the others then?"

Nativity Scene in JW Literature
by Wild_Thing indoes anyone know if the jws have very printed a picture of, what might be considered, a nativity scene in any of their literature?
i think it would funny to create a christmas card using their own artwork!
haha!

There is a nativity scene on pages 8 and 9 of the book from the 2015 conventions, called Jesus - The Way, the Truth, the Life (which seems to be a replacement for the Greatest Man book). It's available at jw.org under Publications-->Featured Items, then scroll down to "Convention Releases." I only have a pdf copy and the picture is split between the two pages, so I'm not in a position to post a scan; maybe someone more adept with graphics can do so.
Here's a direct link to the Convention Release section: http://www.jw.org/en/publications/jw-convention-releases-2015/

The green download button is greyed out and says "Locked." Unlocking it appears to require a code. Have the WT's lawyers gotten involved so quickly? -

Can you prove that WT policy of shunning is unscriptual? Will soon be discussing with somebody, give me all your ammo!
by EndofMysteries inwill soon be discussing w/ somebody still in about that.
i want to make sure i am not missing anything good.
so any scriptures, articles whether wt articles or secular about effects of shunning, etc, or your arguments against how wt interprets their scriptures, etc.

Here's an article I wrote some time ago offering a more biblically sound understanding of the Bible texts most used by the JWs to support their shunning doctrine:

Why Does The RSS feed for this site No Longer Work?
by NeonMadman ini had been following active posts here for a while through the rss feed, first through google reader, then through feedly after google reader shut down.
but in the last few weeks, the feed seems to have stopped working.
anybody know why, and how i can get it back?.

Since the forum changed over, I've been unable to get the new "Latest Posts" to feed through my Feedly, as I used to do before the forum change. Is there a solution to this, or is the new format simply RSS inaccessible? -

why we do not have to read the bible daily,
by sowhatnow inor for that matter at all, from my perspective ,.
the only place in the bible that there is a mentioning of reading something [in an undertone day and night] [that i can find].
is in the hebrew scritures.

JWs talk a lot about reading the Bible daily, but I don't know of very many who actually did, unless you count the verse or two that appeared in the Daily Text. Most of the JWs I was aware of read the Bible only when directly assigned, as in the reading for the Ministry School (which was relatively small; it took 3-4 years to read through the whole Bible if you just followed that), or else looking up proof texts found in the publications. As far as just reading the Bible for its own sake, I think we were too convinced that we couldn't understand it on our own, so it was easier just to read the publications.
