Can you imagine if everyone had to get in line and apply to be baptized? People all standing/sitting around the river with their answers and question sheets scratching their heads? John standing in the water all alone freezing his ass off?

First question: Why are JW's ridiculed so much?
by 2good2bad indo you ever wonder why jw's are the most ridiculed?
they are made fun of more than any other religion.
it makes me think about jesus and how he was persecuted and ridiculed for being righteous.

they were actually making fun of them.
I can remember such jokes bantied about but it wasn't about the mormons going door to door. It was because rarely did anyone ever actually see one stop and get off the bike long enough to speak to someone. In all my life I have been called on by mormons a total of maybe twice but I've seen them quite often. So what if someone giggled at another religion what religion doesn't? Its not a big deal or the end of the world but a bit nitpicky. There are far more important things one can find to gripe about.

John 1:3 says that Jesus created " all things". What does the word ?all? mean to you?
It reads to me as all things as we know them. Not all things as in the universe or whatever else is out there beyond our knowledge -

What about the Watchtowers claim that the Son of God is an angel?
Technically so is God. What does the word angel mean to US as humans anyway.(if you take its basic meaning, not its rank and file meaning)
Jesus is also the word. Does this make him a word?

Do you think people are good?
by DanTheMan inis there any such thing as good?.
the watchtower taught us that all people outside the org either willingly or unknowingly support satan, and soon will die for doing such.
those are some weird goggles to look at people through.. do you find that wt misanthropy still affects your thinking, and makes you feel that the whole world is bad and hopeless?

How many "annointed" JWs have there been since Russell started?
by True North inhas the wt org.
published any figures on how many faithful "annointed" they think there've been since russell got things started back in the 1800s?
would be interested in subtracting that number from 144,000 to see how many faithful christians the jws say there were in the previous 1800 years or so.

HOW ABOUT MENTIONING JESUS AT THE MEMORIAL!
by Mary inwell i went last night...........did anyone else notice how the talk focused almost exclusively on the 144,000???
jesus was barely mentioned.
the first couple of minutes talked about when the israelites left egypt and the passover was instituted.

Kinda like in ancient days when a boy reaches manhood his name is changed/given to him by his king. Why there are so many characters in the Hebrew scriptures with 2 different names, given name at birth by parent then given name at adulthood by king/owner/ruler/boss

They all suck this year, none of them have "star" quality. George is the best singer but still not superstar quality. He looks like erkel
