  JW Underground

  by Hondo in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i recently read an article about jw's that, if had the choice, would probably leave because of the deceptions, lies, etc., but don't because of family, friends, prestige, whatever, and instead lead a make-believe life going through the motions of being a loyal and believing follower of the watchtower organization.

  most of those purported to be part of this non-believing/participating, but attending, jw population, are folks that have been associated with the jw's for a number of years, but, as many have, decided that the lies and constant changes (new light) just don't make sense anymore.

  i would suspect that identifying those who just "go through the motions" of being a good jw would be difficult.

  the awesome power of god

  if you are willing to put faith in jah, the only true god, then i am willing to share my experiences with you.

  jehovah is able to humble any man, no matter how strong or powerful he thinks he is..........in a microsecond.

  Humans on other planets

  by Truth2Me in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  through research over the years, it seems to me that aliens do exist, and even it some of the alien abductions are "demonic" or "ginn activity" as many claim, there are still many tales of humanoid beings from other planets that have been seen on earth.

  this is something i've struggle with for years, because jw and mainstream christians alike write it all off as demonic etc.

  anyone have thoughts on reconciling belief in god with aliens, even humans on other planets?

  An Essay on Faith.

  by SYN in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  been reading some interesting threads here lately.

  there's so many new faces here that i don't know...*sigh*.

  does anyone else here who's been out of the "truth(tm)" for a couple of years feel like that part of their lives was surreal?.

  Found an Awake at the rest stop today..and I knew exactly what to do....

  by Dawn in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  found it at a rest stop today while traveling.

  i thought about tossing it, but decided it had a much better purpose.

  it was an issue on what to teach your young child - cute picture of a little girl (about 4 years old) on the cover.. so - i took it to my car, got out a pretty purple pen and wrote on the cover "this religion has a major probelm with pedophiles and is hurtful to young children.
