after reading the content of the 1 day assembly on another post, please tell me wt are trying to suggest members cant follow super hero movies/characters etc.

the whole of my ex family wouldnt have a life if this happened!

surely a wake up call for them....... but doubt it

How about the utter disrespect we show to Jehovah every time we watch anything about aliens? Um, I can't remember the exact reason but something about disrespect for his creation.
And watching superhero movies is bad because they are basically gods with godlike powers and if you watch them you are glorifying, worshipping!, other gods.
They're just like the Taliban, really. Pick something extreme and run with it, enforce it on others.

has anyone heard about this?

that really sucks.

lots of dubs are talking.

Are you sure his ex was a JW? I read that he met her when she was working for his nonprofit organization... Which doesn't seem like a witness job. And now she's married to another celebrity...

'Mom, I love you, but I don't love your religion and I'm sorry if this lets you down. I'll be there for you no matter what.'....and don't worry about anything else. Your partner's parents, who cares what they think.

I completely agree with Lisa Rose. You were born like this. You've been fighting it your whole life. It sounds like this person who have been with recently is the one for you and you can be happy if you just let yourself be. Please research the religion you were brought up in. Jwfacts is best. United church of Christ would be a good one for you I agree. You need some love and acceptance in yor life and less judgment and guilt. If you have been separated from your wife for two years the news will come more easily for her. This will probably messy yes, with your birth family and kids too maybe. But you are miserable, honey. Suicide isn't the answer. Living as you are meant to live is the answer.

What is the Modern Christian's Role, According to the Bible
by jacobm in
1. watchtower
2. bible
if any other christians can answer this:.

what is the role of the believer in this day of the church (the body of christ, not the building)?.

is preaching a main goal?.

I as a protestant completely confer with what David Jay said. In our church we are encouraged to do what we can to spread Gods kingdom on the earth now, trying to make the earth and our community better in everything that we do. And also to know Jesus so intimately that we become like him, and can be Jesus' hands on the earth, helping the old and the sick and the lonely wherever possible.

what is it with meetings?.

so often she comes home throws her bag down and stomps around the house.

there are times it thoroughly gets me down.. + supportive comment welcome.
FayeDunaway

Sowhatnow was the closest. I know this from personal experience. She is embarrassed that you don't go with her, and she feels lonely. She sees 'everyone else' supported by their husbands, sees complete families all together, but she sits there alone. She thinks about it on the lonely drive home and gets mad at you for doing this to her.
I would suggest planning something to do together after the meeting, maybe take her out to lunch Sundays when she gets home, like you probably used to do when you were both going.

The Prince conundrum

2 questions remain in the passing of brother prince:.

will an autopsy, that won't be made available for several weeks, reveal that he died of a drug overdose?.

did prince bequeath a large sum of money to watchtower corporation upon his passing?.
FayeDunaway

Hallelujah, his sister is getting it all!!! I was actually so worried the society freaks would get millions. Lets hope Tyka isnt the least bit a JW sympathizer but that she loved the social causes her brother cared about.
