  Entertainment for International Delegates

  by Listener in

  2. beliefs

  bibl3thumper has posted a youtube of the celebrations that took place for german delegates.

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvs6_q7rqps&feature=em-subs_digest.

  it's hard to believe that they are now using the kingdom hall to sing pop songs and for dancing.

  How the Supreme Courts decision could spill into the JW world.

  by problemaddict in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so in the 5-4 decision today, the courts said an employer could not be forced to cover things mandated by the aca (specifically birth control was the point of contention), if doing so would violate their religious beliefs.. nuts.

  just nuts.. here is what ruth ginsberg wrote in her dissent.

  its 35 pages, but this stood out to me for obvious reasons.. "would the exemption...extend to employers with religiously grounded objections to blood transfusions (jehovah's witnesses); antidepressants (scientologists); medications derived from pigs, including anesthesia, intravenous fluids, and pills coated with gelatin (certain muslims, jews, and hindus); and vaccinations[?

  What if you worked for a Christian Scientist? Then they could opt out of healthcare altogether.

  99.9% Of a People Who Believe In Evolution Don't Understand It.

  by Space Madness in

  i never believed in evolution as i thought it didn't make sense and that what was proposed was simply impossible.

  how could an environment alter an organism's dna?

  as we can see however, bacteria cannot become resistance to antibiotics.

  Salty language in old publications?

  by Separation of Powers in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  years ago, a friend showed me several examples of the"salty" language that appeared in some of the older publications, apparently consolation more than others.

  i was wondering if any of you have examples of that with pdf copies.

  please don't fake me out and post some photoshop copy of something that isnt real....i am going to use the information to show how rutherford and his cohorts were far from the blessed f&ds.

  Two well dressed young men came knocking

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  here's my experience in the last 15 minutes.

  it's about 6 p.m and i'm home alone watching tv when someone knocks loudly on the door.

  i open and there, like an apparation, stand two of j smith's disciples -smart looking , well dressed ( they used to wear black ties only a few years ago) clean cut.. i inform them that i'm an ex-j witness and they are quiet for a moment.

  Question About the Governing Body

  by Wild_Thing in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  does anyone know if any of the current governing body members became a jw as an adult, or were all of them raised and bred a jw from childhood?.

  i have a theory that the jws that are "born in" and stay in tend to be more extreme and less reasonable because that is all they have ever known, especially if they are sheltered and groomed to be a good little jw.. and i was just looking at what i could find about the newest and youngest member, mark sanderson.

  he was born on february 4, 1965, and he was baptized on february 9, 1975 ... a few days shy of turning 10 years old!

  Lett's father was a CO, and so was he. We had them both.

  Internet Dating - I feel like I am being love bombed again

  by KateWild in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  i am on three or four sites and lots of guys are showing an interest and trying to be genuine.

  it reminds me of being love bombed by the jws.

  i am having so much fun and loving all the attention, i almost got carried away with it all, until i got a pm on jwn.. i have just been absorbing it all and it dawned on me i am still vulnerable, and possibly not ready to date.

  Just a thought,

  Learn to love yourself first. If you doubt you are ready, you probably are not.

  2. beliefs

  i am not much of a reader as i have two many distractions, but i fancy a challenging read, so please list any book that has changed your entire world view on everything.

  i remember as a teenager buying at a yard sale, norman vincent peales " the power of positive thinking" and at the time that had a big impact on me.

  but i am a little bit more in to " realistic positive thinking" now..
