I don't believe there has been any growth in developed countries like Australia, Britian and the U.S. in the last 10 years. Whatever growth has been reported by the WTS is just numbers propaganda for the rank and file, it isn't the 'truth'.

Was it not Billy Shakespeare who wrote,
"Feel the sky blanket you, in gems and rhinestones. See the path cut by the moon, for you to walk on.....
I had false belief, I thought we came here to stay. We are all just visiting, just breaking like waves"..
I am perhaps paraphrasing a little yes, but I am sure I've made my point.

What's the agenda? Does gravity have an agenda? The law of thermodynamics also?

Do you still believe in God?
by FormerlySandL ini never thought i would admit it, but i don't.
i might superstitiously have some kind of doubt but digging a bit deeper in my heart i really don't believe in god.
as a human i could never just sit and watch people be tortured, live years of abuse, suffer from illness and disabilities and all the other awful things people have to endure day after day without doing something about it.

So God DOES cares for us!
It's just that, it feels exactly the same as if he didn't really exist at all and doesn't give a shit about anyone or anything. Right. Got it.

Joe Pesci. Hollywood California. Via his Facebook fan club page. He might not answer though, he's usually busy
The most feasible description of God I've heard yet. You are a spiritual man.

What's the purpose of being a JW now?
by MrTheocratic inwith all the recent changes to this religion, what really is the purpose of being a jw?
especially for those who have been in and witnessed all the changes and still no sight of the end.
for these ones in particular (35-55 year olds) they must be in a state of confusion.

I can show you why God does not - and cannot - intervene in badness. Would that make a difference to you? If so, you have my PMs - just contact me.
That would make a huge difference for me! Instead of sending a pm, why not post your evidence here on this thread?
I've currently no faith, so let's start with God. What's his name, where does he live, and how can I contact him?

I've been following this one. I'm not buying it.
When I read experiences of ones waking and leaving, I usually feel for them. You can smell the JW in the way they express themselves, especially in regards to their doubts in doctrine. All I am getting here is a scent of bullshit.
