Overpopulation in the "Paradise" Earth!

by Leolaia in

jw doctrine teaches that the 1,000 years of christ corresponds to "judgment day," and everyone who has not already been judged will be resurrected from the dead.

the exceptions would be those who died during the flood, the destruction of sodom and gomorrah, and a few odd individuals.

but that's only the people living today.

Two Witnesses stuck in a elevator or car without Chaperon. Would they fornicate? Yes/No

by Witness 007 in

im amazed how going witnessing sisters who knew me for decades would sit only in the back seat on the way to the hall...to avoid any sex at the traffic lights!!!

and chaperons 1840's style are needed because two witnesses alone for 10 minutes would go at it like animals even after all the training watchtower articles and talks being jahs clean org.

and all..

Dances With Watchtowers - Witnessing to Native Americans

by Clam in

i've had a life long fascination with native americans, starting of course as a kid who watched westerns, and then learning of about their true culture and spirituality.

i have often wondered how jws in other countries, particularly the us, would interact with the indigenous people of their country.

do any americans here have any stories about witnessing to native americans?

i have been to my old kh for 2 funerals since i left 20 yrs ago but i don't think they count.

so i am thinking of visiting a different hall on a sunday for the public talk and wt study.

i want to go just to remind myself how simple minded it is and to hopefully help me appreciate how wonderful and free my life now is.

go and satisfy your curiosity.

Once you go as a visitor- its easy- come in late and leave during the song.

Head coverings yet again in the latest KM

by life is to short in

my husband just gave me the latest km the novermber 2013 and it yet again has a question box on head coverings.. question box "should a female publisher wear a head covering if she is accompanied by a male pubisher at a doorstep bible study?".

it says "when a female publisher conducts a reagular, scheduled bible study and a male kingdom publisher is present, she should wear a head covering.

(1 cor 11: 3-10) the july 15 2002, issue of the watchtower page 27, explains: "this is a prearranged session of teaching where the one conducting the the study actually presides.

The worst thing to have pride in

by Rattigan350 in

i really hate it when kids on interviews on meetings or assemblies and they state with pride that they turned down the piece of cake or brownie or other birthday treat at school.

is that something to really be proud of?

it is not as if the teacher is tempting them.

Having to constantly turn down every holiday and birthday cake, cupcake, and brownie, not to mention every every palm traced turkey, spiderweb, v-day heart- paper snow flake- EVERY DAY to stand but not recite the pledge of allegiance- it does something to a child. I recall sitting out school birthday parties in the hallway by myself, overhearing the happy sounds inside. Did I feel sorry for myself- of course not. They were dead meat, and I wasnt.

On top of that, even if YOU THE CHILD feel like this one cupcake wont hurt anything, your parents have already visited your teachers to inform them that you are to be a social outcast and sit out anything remotely fun or even scientific. But, the child most likely will not take the cupcake because that frosted bit of happiness is a TEMPTATION leading to CERTAIN DEATH AT armageddon.

This is one those instances of JW DOUBLESPEAK. What the child feels is SHAME, so instead lets call it PRIDE.

If it is pride, its is pride that everyone else is going to die, but you, in your cupcake refusing virtue, will live forever and pet the panda.
