  seems jw's are allowed to remember valentine's day as long as it involves a trolley/cart or jw broadcast.

  this is serious stuff!

  i saw this on my facebook news feed shared by few brothers and sisters:.

  What is the name of this specific book?

  by QuestionAskerPersonMan in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i'm taking a class, and we are learning about jws.

  my teacher is talking about a "big brown book" that is used for any questions or scriptures quoted by the person who jws are talking to.

  he used it in the context that if they don't know the answer off the top of their head, they look for the verse in this book.. what is the name of this book?.

  Isn't Insight a brown book? or maybe it's green.

  Childless elders need to piss off

  by Steel in

  2. experiences

  anyone else think it's wrong to ask a women with small children to volunteer there time, ask if they like to come to a potential study etc etc?.

  my wife just spent an entire day helping with a kingdom hall reno while i babysat.

  i latter stepped out and saw half the elders having coffee because they had so many people show up, they were tripping over each other.. i also have no idea what tangible skill my wife offered or why it is important she needs to be there.. i just wish these men would man up and be men, instead of just wasting everyone's time on purpose.

  Watchtowers quote: "They set their minds on—are most deeply interested in, constantly talk about, engage and glory in—the things pertaining to the flesh."

  Full sentence: "They set their minds on—are most deeply interested in, constantly talk about, engage and glory in—the things pertaining to the flesh, that is, to sinful human nature."

  
  

  They left out "sinful human nature" That is the flesh. What is so sinful about travel and hobbies?

  I did a google search with the quote trying to find out who this "scholar" is. Turns out Blondie's post is third on the results. Pretty cool.

  Wife and I discussing "The Path"

  by StarTrekAngel in

  2. experiences

  my wife and i have been watching the tv show "the path".

  we are caught up to the latest episode and we have began discussing the parallels (or the lack thereof) between the cult portrayed in the show and the jw.

  would you help me trace some more that i may be overlooking?.

  They take advantage of people's vulnerability to gain them as members. (Such as the natural disaster in the introduction of the show. )

  Bible studies are usually those who have just been through something tragic in their life like a death in family, serious illness, even the vulnerable state of pregnancy.
