Who cares? I'm sick and tired of the two of them, Venus and Serena! They need to get "real"! There is now way in h-ll they can justify their lifestyle with being a JW in good standing. Why the charade?

You are a terrific parent Chickpea!! You love your child unconditionally, exactly the way a parent should. The JWs view of proper parenting is warped, they have no concept of true unconditional love. Bravo to you! Wishing you and your family the very best as you stand behind your son's decision to live his life.

The fact that the FDS uses the term "present truth" to qualify their constant changes in doctrine is one of the major factors which convinced me this organization cannot be guided by God.
Also, the fact that EVERY prophecy in the Old Testament supposedly has a second fullfillment which started in 1914 and applies to the handful of Bible Students of that day is another "ding, ding, ding" telling you something is wrong here!
Another one, the fact that they apply the direction in 2 John to not even greet someone who THEY disfellowship is WRONG. The context is clear, John was speaking about the Anti Christ, NOT to someone who decided that he just doesn't agree with the GB! Twisting scriptures so blatantly to qualify their ridiculous tenets is an abomination!
Also, the fact they promote conditional love by only showing christian love to their own or to anyone who shows interest in their religion is the ultimate UNchristian characteristic they display!
Their are numerous other reasons that I have for coming to the conclusion that this organization is completely MAN made but I am too tired to list them all.

The artist has to be a real homophobe! Notice the three men in the bottom right corner being pelted? Is the artist insinuating they are gay? Just speculating-

The growing irrelevance of the Watchtower message
by drew sagan inin many ways it appears as if the watchtower movement is slowing down.
a number of changes over the last few years certainly show that the watchtower is in a period of transition.
they have cut back on the number of magazines they print as well as lowered the cost of production by eliminating things like hard backed books.

Not one single thing they teach falls very far from the "time of the end is upon us" tree. The "time of the end" story is the Jehovah's Witness version of easter bunny and santa claus. The irrelevance of it is that not many Witnesses actually believe in it any more - they are there for social reasons, family pressures, just plain habit of momentum, or off on some sad elder/governing body power trip. They are just going through the motions of the belief in the immediate end of the world.
Totally agree with your point James!
