  Active JW's and JW Lurkers- Especially JW Defenders and Believers: A Few Questions For You

  by OnTheWayOut in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  while there are not too many currently defending the watchtower in this discussion forum, it happens from time to time.

  and quite often, there may be new people and lurkers reading these discussions.

  i just wanted you to ponder these questions.

  His son chose to join the religion. Four years ago. Well, we've all got crap to deal with because of this religion, and some of us have had people actually die because of it. J-DUBBED can keep himself under control, he doesn't need anyone making excuses for him. If I knew who the hell moderates around here now, I would have PMed them instead of saying something.

  There's plenty of blame to go around, guys. Why does it all need to be on the elders?

  Just because you're here on a forum that is mostly composed of ex-Witnesses, that doesn't mean you get to repeatedly break rules 1, 2, and 3 in the name of "getting" the Witnesses, J-DUBBED. Take some deep breaths and step away from the computer, because I'm sure I'm not the only one who's tired of your Tourette's outbursts.

  Well, recording is one thing; I'm sure the news program crews record lots of things. We'll have to wait (possibly a long time) to see if anything comes of this.

  This isn't really that unusual, in the sense that it would portend anything for the organization at large.

  My largest thread is the Comprehensive NWT Comparison Project at 11 pages, since it required technical discussion. I haven't forgotten that I promised to come back to it once I am free to spend time on other programs again.

  My largest general-interest topics, at 5 pages each, are Witnesses: Why The 1/19/14 WT Lesson Is Dangerous (about the study article which urged people to follow any future directions from the slave; I worked hard on this one and am proud of it despite making a few errors) and Your earliest doubt?.

  Luke 11:31 is comparing Jesus' wisdom to Solomon's, though. Nothing about demons.

  I'm Shocked The Jehovah's Witnesses Even Allow Their Kids To Go To Mainstream Schools.

  by Jehovanomics in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  judging by the material that my kid brings home on a daily basis in copius amounts.

  everything about everything in elementary school goes against the doctrines of the jehovah's witnesses.

  how do jw's expect to make any money if all of their kids are defecting the jw's?

  This is increasingly a subject of interest to me as I am realizing that more of the kids in our cong. are being home-schooled than I thought. At least some of them seem well-adjusted nonetheless. I'm just frightened by the absolute vacuum of information counter to their beliefs in that environment, as well as not being able to see that non-Witness kids can be good association.
