"Do you believe that the 'faithful slave' is God's channel of communication?"
by The Fall Guy inif a jw had the nerve to ask me this question, i'd say to them, "you go first.
using only scriptural proof, show me why you believe that the wtbts/ccojw is god's choice and i'll tell you if i agree with your scriptural reasoning.".
wait for the silence and the rabbit in the headlights moment.. i searched on the wt cd rom for references of "channel of communication.".

They are no longer "Faithful", they have not upheld gods laws so no they are not gods channel of communication anymore!
In fact they never were.
By the way I do not believe god exists, if he did he would surely have put a stop to all this bs that is happening in the name of god,dont you think!!!

Unwritten, congregational 'rules'
by Thetruthhurts inwhat were some of yours?
the big one in our hall was no frontal hugs!
these were generally thought of as inappropriate, only side hugs should be given between sisters and brothers.

Sisters are never to share any opinions,views or say(construed as directing) when at field circus, meetingsetc.
I was with a couple of bros and two sisters on the field circus.When this newly appointed ms was working with another sis. She found out that he was doing the knocking the hard way round in an area which was uphill and downhill. He would walk uphill, knock on a couple of doors,come back down and check with the other four he had in his care how they were doing.Then dish out a few more doors to them, again walk further uphill back to the last door he had knocked and start there. Back and forth, back and forth. Given the sis was an older person, difficulty in walking steep uphill too, she said it would be easier on her if he just had the lower numbers (bottom of hill so she does not need to walk up and down needlessly, or pair her up with someone else.
Boy! should have seen his face go red, he was so upset she spoke her mind and trying to direct him (which was a smarter way of doing things). No way ! Nada! He did not want to reason or ask why! Ultimately, as I saw what was happening, just asked her if she would join me on a return visit nearby (to get her out of the situation without making waves for anyone).She jumped on it, and rest is history.
So much for empathy (a word I learnt only with this cult)

Believers: How do you know your view of your chosen holy book is the correct one?
by punkofnice indon't start fighting, darlings.
i am genuinely curious.
after all i was a jobo 50 years and thought the wbt$ was 100% correct.. i ask this because i see that, for example, christian denominations (or whatever), likely have differing interpretations of the same writing.

Why does one need a holy book in the first place? Why cant we just be genuine , caring good human beings, living and let live!

And not turning over sexual predators and criminals over to the law is very lawful !
Having ones own ideas of what is lawful and not lawful , making it always play in their favour ! If not it is persecution!

I recently read that a long time lawyer for them left the org, took them to court, sued them for I suppose slandering his name which would ofcourse affect his career as a laywer (he left coz he did not agree with them when they asked/changed some rule which he said was wrong morally n unlawful to do) and won. This had happened in the 80's or so .I am sorry do not remember the source but if I find it I will post here.
I read up and visit so any websites that I cant keep up what I read, where.

Do you believe the Bible is the inspired word of God ?
by smiddy3 inif you answer yes to that question ,may i ask which bible are you referring to ?
and why would god have a different number of bible books for different parts of the world.?.
is he partial to different ethnic groups ?.

I came to think that the Bible could not be what I thought it was. The Bible contains errors. And if it contained errors, it was not completely true. This was a problem for me, because I wanted to believe the truth, the divine truth, and I came to see that the Bible was not divine truth without remainder. The Bible was a very human book, devised by humans for their own motives.
There are as many interpretations to the bible verses as there are verses itself. Gods inspired word will always stand up to scrutiny,(if there ever is one) objective reasoning and evidence.
So no its a fairy tale .
