Goodbye friends

by Freeandclear in

friends

i'm not killing myself lol i just wanted to say a short goodbye.

i'm not leaving forever, i'm sure i'll pop in here and there but for the most part i haven't felt the need to check in here as often as i used to so i thought i'd say so long.

this journey we're all on (life) and trying to make sense of it all is a very personal one.

What's preventing YOU from stopping meeting attendance?

by nicolaou in

we all 'exit' in our own way and at our own pace but i'm curious, why carry on stuffing yourself into that stiff suit and tie or meeting dress years after you realised the truth about 'the truth'?.

they kept you a prisoner, what's stopping you from leaving now that you have the key to your own cell?.

loved ones?

Is strong faith or belief in religion or "God" a mental disorder?

by kpop in

it is a most interesting study.

when one studies anthropology, one can see how the "need" for belief in a higher being evolved from early man.

and it served a purpose.

Faith has healing powers....outside religion, some kind of benevolent...or indifferent Supreme Being should exist out there.. I still pray for example..

Irregular to meetings, can I partake in memorial?

by Squekylive in

hi friends .

i don't believe in jw doctrines anymore but because of family i have to be a jw for now.. i am not regular to meetings, and don't answer in meeting, but i report some hours so i remain as active jw now.. .

congregation knows that i am not spiritual and i don't talk to people and i don't care what they think about me.. now, i believe it's important to observe lord's supper as a christian as per john 6:53, so in the coming memorial if i attend i want to partake in the communion,.. i believe it is a sin to pass the bread and wine inspite of knowing it's flesh and blood of jesus.. it's like rejecting jesus.. so i want to partake.. but i dont consider i am anointed etc.

To go and partake, because you're gonna look crazy.

That's the thing as in NWT Rev. 18:9 ...."the kings of the earth....crying" for Babylon destruction. It would be interesting if ever there's WT new light on that. Of course a lot of real estate agents crying 🍺

Strange thing here...."the kings that fornicate with Babylon the Great" are showing 'crying its destruction' so not all the kings destroy Babylon....anyway no government is so crazy to attack religion like for example the communists

Thread Post View Is Stuck At 10 & Can't Be Changed!

by Divergent in

i browse this site on mobile and noticed that the thread post view is now stuck at 10. previously, i could set it at 20 and it stays that way, but now if i set it at 20, it goes back to 10 again the moment i click on another topic.

i hope that you can look into this as it is extremely irritating for me to keep having to change it.

i want to view as many posts as possible in one page!

I don't know how to contact Simon.....but my problem is that I started a topic....and it got stuck in "Home Topics" and I want to move it to "Home All topics".....and I can't do that....should I start again? Or there is a way to move it?
