will gladly tell you that matthew 24:14 proves that only they are god's true people/religion, because they are the only people preaching the good news worldwide today.

crucially, they double-down on this lame bet by adding that their worldwide preaching proves another wtbts teaching, namely, that we are living in "the last days.

Baptism statistics from CO

by neat blue dog in

just went to the assembly yesterday and during the final talk the circuit overseer said:.

'sure, there are some adults baptised here and there, but do you want to know something wonderful?

the vast majority of those getting baptized are teens and preteens!

When kids are coerced and indoctrinated they are most likely to get baptized because they can't believe anything else without being made to feel guilty. Chilfren aim to please their parents as well, so they get baptized. Plus with threats of dying at armageddom if your not baptized is a powerful tool to scare kids.

Parents who try to make you feel guilty.

when parents say all the things we've done for you and your not doing anything for us in return like going to meetings, witnessing, answering up etc... how do you respond to parents?.

NJ501

Thanks all your your responses, it helps a lot. :)

Sorry to hear that Reazon.

Lol Freddo, I probably wouldn't say that but I will think it.

Yeah it is a tough one to answer. I would say something similar along the lines of your response moreconfusedthanever.

I just hate being told your unappreciate and you do nothing for us in return.

marriage"equality" survey, Australia.

by zeb in

jw
friends

the australian govt has set out a survey to see if people are in favour of changing the marriage act to include same sex couples.. hm here have received their papers?

the survey promises to be anonymous but has a substantial bar code at the bottom... anonymous yeah right.. the marriage act once said "two people" then a previous prime minister changed it to say "man and woman" all that is needed to amend this situation as required by the gay community is change it back again to "two people" there, done and dusted.. and millions of dollars need not be wasted on this survey which is not compulsory as is voting in australia.

can anyone here who still goes to kh tell us if this has had a ruling from the platform?.

NJ501

I haven't heard anything announced at the KH about the voting. My dad took my form though and chucked it in the fire. His reasoning is that we dont get involved in the controversies of the world.

by compound complex in

greetings, gourmands of the forum!.

i agree with garfield, but mayo comes in a close second.

slathering my pasta with an inch of best foods real mayonnaise (hellman's, east of the rockies) is close to heaven for me.
