  Four die out in service in Texas

  a real tragedy here yesterday; regardless of our feelings about the religion itself, we lost some good friends and genuinely nice people yesterday; these were some of "the good ones"--why is it always them??.

  southlake four people died saturday after their car flipped over into a six-foot-deep pond in southlake, police said.. just before 11:20 a.m. saturday, the toyota sedan drove through the intersection of lonesome dove road and burney lane, crashed into a metal fence, hit a tree, and landed upside-down in a pond on the grounds of a mansion.. "they came through this stop sign and, from eyewitness accounts, they never slowed down," said neighbor byron copeland.. copeland said the residents of the property raced to try and help.

  If it were apostates, the JW's would be saying "see what happens when you leave Jehovah?" Truth of the matter is, life is life no matter what you believe.

  Was there one single thing that told you non-JWs were not that bad after all?

  by dgp in

  2. friends

  when you people were witnesses, was there one thing (or many) that really told you non-jw's were not that bad people after all?

  was there anything other people did to you that got you thinking or, better yet, feeling that you hadn't been told the truth about us?.

  thank you for your answers..

  i know a lot of people were upset when mash ended.

  i never was a big fan of the show, probably because it was on a meeting night, but it was a very popular show.. i loved hill street blues, taxi, all in the family, the rifleman, even superman!

  i wished those shows never stopped!.

  long-time occasional lurker, first-time poster.

  cliffs notes version: i'm thinking of da'ing in order to shake my family up a bit, even though i haven't been involved with jws in more than 10 years.

  longer version: i was raised as a jw but never got baptized.

  What if there was "new light" that the 144,000 was symbolic?

  by Sour Grapes in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i really think that if the watchtower had an article.

  that had the new light that the 144,000 was a symbolic.

  number that the majority of jw's would accept this.

  I don't think it would make a difference. It's not as if great company members will all of a sudden believe they are spirit begotten and join the ranks of the little flock. Things will continue as they are, a two class system.

  Russell endorsed Biological Evolution

  by peacefulpete in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i had previously not read of russell's long time endorsement of a evolutionary interpretation of the fossil record.

  he and the bible students sought to find some convoluted way to retain their belief in creation while yet appearing modern and scientific.

  in brief the doctrine was that god may have in fact used evolution for all but human creation and once the creation was complete he put the brakes on the process.
