How Long Will YOU Identify As A Jehovah’s Witness?

by minimus in

jw
friends

some witnesses realize that they got into a religion and it turned out to be disastrous.

many decide they have to somehow get out.

some do it right away and others take longer.. where are you in your journey?

Phizzy, it’s probably Tony Morris lol.

Need Help - How do I refute this???

by HappyBlessedFree in

so i was talking with my husband about all the things the organization is doing ie.

hiding pedophiles, lying about what 1914 was etc.

so his response was that the nation of israel had times when they weren’t doing the right thing, but it was still gods chosen organization.. another topic we were talking about was disfellowshipping.

My mom dismissises all this as “ wrong understanding” and not any factual things

. Sigh.

237,000 illegal migrants in the last 5 months... is it time to intervene?

by silentbuddha in

is it possible that anyone being truthful with themself can literally believe that there needs to be a cork placed in this problem.. if this continues, and most sources, not speaking about fox, are suggesting this is only going to get worse and at this rate there will be over 750k illegal migrants.

how are we suppose to sustain this influx.

the massive amounts of children flooding the schools in my own municipality is crippling, for many of the counties residents.. as an example the entire county offered free breakfast and lunch to all students.

While sympathetic to their plight, we can’t afford to educate illegals. And I’m a democrat.

"Dog bites religious books on South Florida beach, but his owner gets put in the doghouse"

by ShirleyW in

jw
friends

the thing that stands out about this story is and i italicized below is, the jw said he had a permit, which i really, really, really, have a strong feeling that this is the biggest lie told on the planet, dubs just set those damn carts down wherever they please, step back about five feet from them and start looking at their phones are gossiping with their pioneer partner about everyone else in the cong while getting their hours in.. man's best friend also proved to be his best accomplice in the case of a marathon man and his french bulldog butterbean.edgar wallis jones, 59, was walking his dog on sombrero beach feb. 6 at 11:30 a.m. jones approached a jehovah's witness who had a cart filled with religious literature set up near a pavilion.he told the man that he was not allowed on city or state property with religious books.

the victim responded that he had a permit and that they were free.jones said if the literature was free, he would take all of it.

he grabbed the cart while butterbean began chewing on some of the books.

The awful treatment of my disfellowshipped cousin still continues

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

my cousin was disfellowshipped twenty years ago when he was 18 years old.

he admitted to the congregation elders that he was fornicating with his ''wordly'' girlfriend.

the elders were following him and hiding in their cars to see what he was up to.

Toesup, your comment is spot on! I couldn’t agree more.
