  Violetanai's baptismal party - all invited

  by Marilyn in

  basically we're all open minded right?

  so lets put aside our negative comments and throw a cyber-space send off for violet's up coming baptism into dubdom.

  she said she's planning on getting baptised soon and clearly our advice and negative thoughts are hurting her feelings.

  Are Jw's the only ones with apostates....

  by VioletAnai in

  who viciously attack the teachings and beliefs of their resigned religion?.

  i was thinking of this last night....i have never in my life seen a movement so big as the apostates against jw's..... no other religion has displayed this....usually people just quietly leave and get on with their lives and there is no anomosity...even if they have been wronged by their religion.... but with jw's it's different...it's an all out and out attack on anyone and everyone who has something positive to say.... makes me believe the bible and the jw's even more...being here is setting the doubt in my mind right....

  a west milford man pleaded guilty to child endangerment offenses friday for sexual encounters he had with two teenage girls he met through his membership at the jehovah's witnesses temple in town.. tom blankenship, 23, had been befriended by an elder at the church and was often invited over for meals and visits, said joseph del russo, passaic county chief assistant prosecutor.. from the fall of 1998 through april 2000, blankenship had sexual relations with one of the elder's relatives, a 17-year-old girl.

  he had similar sexual contact with another relative, a 14-year-old girl, from june 2001 through feb. 21, del russo said.. although there was no physical force used in the incidents, blankenship was charged with multiple sexual assault charges because of the victims' ages.

  before you jump the gun and start offering a friendly hand maybe you should take the advice given and do some reading & research here first.

  you are going to be very surprised with what you find from these so-called loving x-witnesses.. let me give you a couple of examples.. go look up the topic: bryant memorial report.

  read how sadden everyone was to learn of this man who couldnt deal with lifes problems and decided to become judge and jury for his whole family and took them out with a shot gun blast to head as they slept in their beds.

  finaly honest to myself

  by blessed_girl in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i had this 'friend',she also goes to the weekly meetings of jw's.. actually we were good friends, but she had no respect for me sometimes.i just ignored that at the beginning,but she kept disrespect me,what began to irritate me.. i asked myself is she worth a further friendship and the answer was..no.. the past month i had a little fight with her and realized that i should quit the friendship, and i did.. my message for those who don't know: even within the congregation you have to look good who is worth a good friendship and who isn't.. better have 1 good upbuilding friend than 10 fake friends.that is a life-lesson to me.
