The Mormons have missionaries online to chat with interested ones via instant messaging and available by phone. They've had that option for years. If the jws pursue this course, which they probably will, they will once again be late bloomers. Jehovah's chariot is very predictable.

Should some people actually be Witnesses?
by Apognophos init seems to me like certain people actually benefit from joining the religion.
primarily i'm thinking of ones with drug problems who are only able to quit because they are working towards baptism.
another example would be those who are always getting in fights or who have a big ego, and who learn to be pacifistic and humble as a witness.

An important message from a PRACTICING Jehovah's witness
by Sparks inhi, i am also a practicing jehovah's witness and very proud of it,to say the very-very least..!
i am a middle-aged man with many decades of being a witness of jehovah god in england.. this important letter is personally to you, just as many of the bible's 88 letters are to be taken personal by you the reader.
i am writing to you to urge you to take stock of your life, think what your future holds for you.

WHO would Jesus Christ DIS-FELLOWSHIP? A look at the problem of DF-ing
by Terry inloving and forgiving are a huge component of jesus' message to his disciples.. in answer to the question as to how many times forgiveness should be offered to an offender, jesus gave the reply, "seventy (times) seven.
" (variously interpreted as either 77 times or a multiple of 70 times 7).. an example is given of a man who owed a considerable sum of money whose debt was forgiven.
this man failed to forgive a much smaller debt owed to him.

If shunning were so important Jesus would have stressed it, but he did not.

Rules for congregation changes
by UFCFan infirst of all, this post i made on another thread sums up why i want to change congregations so bad.. "theres the other teenagers at the kingdom hall but it's not like i can tell them anything about how i really feel because they're all brainwashed and they'll tell the elders if i tell them something questionable.
there's a girl i like that goes to my hall but i know i'll never be able to be with her because by the time i'm old enough to date by the watchtower's standards, i'll have moved away.. the worst thing is i can't even fake everything well enough to fit in with the other teens at the hall.
i'm always the outcast and if i talk sometimes the so called 'friends' will straight ignore me, even the ones that say they're my best friends.

I've had witness classmates who befriended their classmates. Just because you can't go to parties or invite them over, doesn't mean you can't build meaningful friendships during school hours.

Tell the elders how you feel, maybe they can suggest to your parents to let you visit other halls and meet other youths. Also, don't just limit yourself to friends ships in the congregation, reach out to your school mates, neighbors etc.

The Double Life Of A Jehovah's Witness
by minimus inmany jws are hypocrites.
they lie, cheat, swear, get drunk, fool around, etc..... just because someone is a pioneer, or a ministerial servant or an elder--- it means nothing.
some of the "finest examples", are two faced "christians"..
