  What Is The World View Of America?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a lot of people felt that the usa's reputation was terrible, especially under president bush.

  then obama became president and we heard how the rest of the world felt that finally they had a person that would respect them and their views and work with them!

  the new president even ot a nobel peace prize because of the world's perception.. what's your view of america?

  Justvisiting: " having answers to all of lifes questions,..."

  If anyone thinks that the JWs answer any of life's questions, they are sure as hell asking the wrong questions.

  Obama-care and the WT

  the gb must loooove obama-care socialist health-care.

  jws can go part time to pioneer and then still get health care coverage, while the successful jws and other non jw successful people foot the tax bill.

  god i hate socialism..

  Finally free of JWs!

  by Julia Orwell in

  2. friends

  we moved house and no active jw knows we live there.

  it's in another congregation territory too so when they finally come knocking, they won't know i'm a dirty apostate when i tell them to put me on the do not call list.

  problem is, the local discount supermarket across the highway is frequented by jws from my previous previous congregation!.

  An important point i learnt from the gospel of peter doc

  by Jon Preston in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  so i watchd a doc on the gospel of petey!

  and it was brought out that a tradition of the civilizations of the old is to look to these alostles as authoritative and some would write in a manner that siggested the higher ups ( matt, john, mark, peter) wrote it....if this is true then the gospels are just as accurate as the "lost" gospel of peter...whacha think?

  if true this truly jeopardizes the trub of the old testamenth.

  What was the most rebellious thing you did while you were a devout jw?

  by DuvanMuvan in

  2. friends

  i was just thinking about how humans being imperfect and satan's influence was the root of everything bad that anyone has ever done.

  well i know that apparently everyone is vulnerable which got me thinking about what "bad" things people have done while they were a jw.

  i'll start it off.
