  whats in your heart?

  by new hope and happiness in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  why was the ministry so much arguing over who our perception of god was?..

  when we were witnessing we could thank jehover for the trinity...but now i think the trinity is what jehovers witnesses like to discuss as it avoids stops any talk on real understanding.....because our god is different and right we could always fall back on the trinity.. .

  it's amazing people like to discuss with such certainty things which there really is no certainty..

  I really can't make heads or tails of what your OP is asking?

  FINALLY! Can you prove God exists? If you can I won't ask again!

  i have seen debates and shizzle about god or not god etc etc.. i was even confronted by an aggressive and trheatening muslim in the street, who was angry that i wanted proof that god existed.

  he ranted on a load of old b0110cks about 'hell' and stuff.

  finally he yelled at me: 'do you want god to write your name in the sky?

  I think they had all the proof they needed to match their convictions.

  That's not proof that their beliefs were true .. it just proves that they believed in them ..

  "I won't watch HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER" because Neil Patrick Harris is gay"

  that's what my jw mother said.

  folks, there are plenty of reasons not to watch how i met your mother, but a gay actor playing a straight part is not one of them.

  i should give her a list of known gay actors and ruin a bunch of movies and t.v.

  i'm a secondary school teacher and i've spent a lot of time at school this year since i've left jws simply observing student dynamics.

  i do a lot of playground duty and have the opportunity to observe the kids at play and in the classroom.

  i've especially had the opportunity to observe middle school kids, that is, kids between 12 and 15 in my state.. my observations of these 'worldly' children are:.

  When I enterd middle school my Dad had just been DF'd for smoking, and one day Mom said, " If dad's not going to meetings we're not going to meetings!"

  greatest day of my life .. so I immediately began petitioning to play football.. so through grade school never being able to play with other kids, was gone..

  The best time of my life was midddle school and high school .. I was a JW who finally got to be a non JW..

  I just wanted to wear the pads, so cool here is a pic of me in my first year practice gear ,, Oh the glory of it all.. LOL

  The antidote to the myth that JWs are declining

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  one of the most persistent myths on this website is that jws are already in decline, the rot has set in, and the descent of the watchtower is inevitable from here on in.

  unfortunately the facts do not bear this out.

  jws are still increasing even in most developing countries, and they are still growing worldwide at a faster rate than the general population.

  your big mistake is based on watchtower reported numbers ... THEY LIE .... about everything.. why do you believe their self reported grandiose stats?

  what they can't lie about is the cost of printing a magazine .. it had to be downsized.... only declining sales numbers could bring that about..

  Thats the tell, a printing company printing less and less product.... their buisness is in decline...

  nobody knows what the other numbers are for real.. but the demand for their product is in decline, or they wouldn't have made the cuts.

  it's the only stat you can trust..

  2. experiences

  i was raised as a jw from the age of 7. i was df'd for apostasy in 1971 at the age of 23. it has been 42 years since i have had contact with any jehovah's witnesses, including my family.

  last year i moved to tucson.

  when i read that a district assembly was coming to town, and that it would be at the convention center only minutes from my house, i decided to check it out.

  don't you have go out in service to be counted as a publisher? so if they wouldn't have lowered the minimum hours to be counted what would the real number of active ones be ..

  so the numbers do lie .. so it's really not fair to say because we're out, we are biased to a decline .. since the numbers are skewed.. nobody really knows .. if they only counted people who went Door to Door not just, "When you were at work did you ever say the word Bible?"

  reminds me of a Joke.. It was asked of a Mathmatician, Physicist and an Accountant what is 2+2???????????

  Mathmatician 4

  Physicist 4.0

  Accountant what do you want it to be?

  isn't the lack of elders evidence of decline... I've heard from many who are in that it's an issue..

  and... why didn't they double the magazines size .. instead of cut in half.. that's your proof, they are declining .. plus we all know they lie about their numbers..
