Imagine If The World Was Ruled By Just One Government/Kingdom
by Brokeback Watchtower infirst off to go would be information deemed unfit for heavily indoctrinated subjects.
no rival governments less freedom granted by existing ruler, just cogs in a huge fucking wheel would humans become.. no appealing to the masses of the benefits of their government and the horrors of the opposition.
they are all this generation knows.

Watch out where you tread

my dad pounding his fist on the kitchen table and gritting his teeth as he tells me to get out!

LevelThePlayingField, thank you for your post. Variances of that situation, I'm sure most-to-all of us have experienced. This is very helpful.

Trouble in paradise!
by Confusedalot injust for fun, some thoughts about the paradise teaching:.
will all the carnivores be transformed anatomically?
if a lion is transformed into a herbivore would it still be a lion?

I know when a JW is giving you verbal nonsense... when their lips are moving.

Shocking news

is this a coincidence?
Yes it is. Or maybe not, it is expected that a person at certain age starts having health problems. That's just life.
Am I being punished by Jehovah, or is the devil out to get me...I dont know anymore what to do...
Things are getting too much, guess I should not have joked so much in my posts.
Nobody is punishing you, other than your own self. Life events have nothing to do with the so-called Jehovah or the Devil.
If you love your mom, do the right thing as a human being, not because of some Jehovah nonsense.
And a bug hug. Sorry you're going through rough times.

Jehovah as a Brand
by berrygerry inimo, one of the most brilliant things that rutherford did was to capitalize on the somewhat obscure, but in many ways legitimate, word jehovah as being the personal name of god.. as jehovah's witnesses (small w) morphed into jehovah's witnesses (capital w), other religions that had previously used jehovah in church names and church worship began to diminish its use.. this in turn only continued to distinguish rutherford's religion.. in addition, the watch tower corp's continued and relentless intertwining of "jehovah" and "jehovah's organization" is nothing short of sheer brilliancy.. search wt library or wol.jw.org for "jehovah" and "organization" together with words such as "please" "obey" "serve.
" the interplay is endless.. in the recent post from a former missionary / co, he states: .
"as far as the organization and jehovah, i was like everyone else.

Relaxed rules toward oral sex?
by Socrateswannabe inthese people won't state anything definitively, but here's an excerpt from the study article entitled "making christian marriage a success", in the august, 2016 watchtower.
it does make me wonder.. although the bible does not provide specific rules about the kinds and limits of love play that might be associated with natural, sexual intimacy, it mentions displays of affection.
(song of solomon 1:2; 2:6) christian marriage partners should treat each other with tenderness.

Does this indicate a softening of their antiquated view of oral sex?
Only if your mouth is tender, no biting!

What Is the JW Belief Regarding the Millennium?
by Cold Steel inmost christian religions believe it will be a thousand-year period of peace.
jws, however, seem to believe in the resurrection and then life on paradise earth.
but do they believe in the millennium the way other christians do -- where the lion will lay down with the lamb [bzzzt...mandela effect correction] wolf will lay down with the lamb?

As i walked away i heard him say to the woman "that's an example of what i mean, i was talking and you..." the rest was inaudible as i walked on.
LOL! That could be a scene from a cheesy sitcom. I hope you fully recover from the event :-)
