  At what age can a JW be baptised in the UK?

  by jwfacts in

  i just received an email from an unbaptised publisher that made the following comment;.

  in the uk the age of consent by law for a child is 16 and only then can they be baptized of their own free will.

  is anyone aware of jws that have been baptised younger than 16 in the uk?.

  I was baptized at the age of 14 (in US) I started regretting it at age 15 when I truly realized hormons and boys. This baptisim started me on the path of living a double life. I was too young to understand what the future held for me.

  I have just published my first book. ( consequences to follow )

  i stopped going to the meetings last september and told them that i didn't want to be badgered.

  to be fair, they have not visited or called in nine months, apart from passing on their hello's to my wife and daughter who still attend.

  anyhoo, i have had a fair amount of time to do pretty much what i have wanted over the past 9 months and so i have just finished my book.

  How Does An EX-JW Go To Church For The Fun of The Experience?

  by LoisLane looking for Superman in

  if you are on vacation and see a cute, pictureques, church and your fun and artistic side says, hey...let's go in...what's to be expected?

  i would think that it would be ok to just slip in for a few minutes and slip out again.

  geez...i don't want to listen.

  My JW friends was so afraid of going into a church that we had an old church, just for show not used, at a pioneer Village but we were told we couldnt go inside. We did not go inside, I guess we thought it would start Armegeddon. I think our brothers were so straight laced we were afraid of being df'd immediately.

  Im with you no more organized religion. How did you get the nerve to go into a church, and then mention it to CO and his wife. I always was warned against stepping into a church for any reason.

  i don't know why but that song just gets me shaking my bom bom.

  i love it.

  i especially like the lines "okay now he was close, tried to domesticate you, but you're an animal, baby it's in your nature".

  British zone visit from David Splane - a report from the special meeting in Glasgow

  well i went to a "special meeting" in the armadillo today where a 2 & 1/2 hour programme was relayed from london at 1pm.

  apparently the letters of invitation only went out a month or so ago and not all congregations were invited.

  there were 2,900 of us from around scotland.

  My sister in Northwest US just received a special invitation delivered to her personally, must be such a meeting coming to her area. She is acting so secretive it making some members of the family nervous wondering why the secretsy.

  We wonder because she has now started shunning members of the family that lives in the same home and encouraging mom to do the same.

  my van broke down before christmas.

  i could not even afford to have it "looked at", let alone repaired.

  so, i have been praying that god would somehow work this whole situation out.. .

  Happy your brother helped you find a van. it was your brother to be thanked. we were taught to pray for things that were gods will, spiritual things. unless the van is to be used for service and meetings, I dont believe Jesus, or God answered your prayer.
