okay, i know (or want to believe) that not all jehovah's witnesses are this calloused.
at least i hope not.
there are some good, caring people, but here are some stark contrasts i've observed today that remind me of how glad i am that i'm not part of such an overall unloving group of people.
In spite of all of the callouseness of some derelict "JWS", my thoughts and prayers are with those victims and families.
May God Bless Them All!!
And yes as an active JW I would do anything to help those in need....even Blood!
Please don't stereotype all JWs as callouse individuals based upon a few zealots........
I am one if, given the opportunity, willgive a Public Prayer on behalf of "All those affected" rather than the "Bros"
May Jah Help Us All

this question is addressed to those who still esteem and value gods' word.
those of us who were raised in the "trooth" we were taught that the "sons of the kingdom" pertained only to the "faithful slave".
in jesus' illustration of the end time harvest period, the angels separate the wheat from the weeds , distinguishing two distinct parties.
Hey Wokeup
Still there!!

ok this has nothing to do with being a jw or anything of that nature but it is important to me and i need some help:.
here goes i have been drinking rum and coke (bacardi) since i can remember and finally realized that maybe it is contributing to my severly harsh hangovers.
so i went on a quest in search of a new drink.

This is an interesting thread for me, because I have thought long and hard on this very subject. While you present this interesting thought about the class distinction, anointed and the "Great Crowd". I always thought this illustration showed that the True religion would be "hidden" amongst the weeds and in the end that the True religion would be easily indentifiable. The explanation of the 2 class of those that were worthy is explained at John 10:16.

maximus, .
i would like to start by saying your posts are very informative.
it speaks volumes of one who has seen things from a different perspective(i.e "inside").

Just curious where can we read your history or story inside the WTBTS???
I know you need to protect your anonymity and such!! But still as an "Active" JW, just want to know where your coming from!!

the october 1 watchtower 2001 features articles on training children "properly" and dealing with a "prodigal child.
the latest inside u.s. figures reveal that 86% of jw children leave the fold, with some 29% who eventually come back for reasons of family ties, most never "reaching out.
" that means over half leave permanently.
Maximus
Just curious where can I read your History with the Borg!!! As still an "active" witness sorting and sifting thru all this, just curious your back ground!!! I have "lurked" on here for sometime, but being very cautious so as not be caught by my active JW wife!!
So posting replies and what not is difficult!!
Thanks
normie
