Why I'm Here...
by Sara Annie in
1. jw
2. experiences
so many stories from so many people.

i've read with them all with interest and sympathy, and felt that if i am going to stick around and be a productive member, i should probably tell my own.

i know i am not the only non-jw on this site, and i wanted to offer the perspective of a 'never-was' as to why i am here and participating in the discussions.

"Their Lives In Their Hands" You think?
by morrisamb in
1. jw
2. experiences
in recent days, i've been thinking a lot about the "you must scream when you're raped" rule...[thanks big tex for the correspondence on this issue].

then i read a column by mindelle jacobs in our london free press (i believe she writes for the edmonton sun) that inspired me to write the following rebuttal...although not jw specific, it might still be of interest to some on this forum.

thanks for reading and any feedback you may care to contribute!

i dont know about you guys but im starting to get the feeling that a big fallaway is on the cards in the wt world what with all the recent scandals and the advent of the internet , information is so readily available to those in developed countries ,i feel that especially in developed nations the wt will suffer huge losses due to apathy and their extreme stand on so many issues, that many will become sick and tired of the wt treadmill of life which is so far away from the simplistic beauty of biblical christianity what do you think?

hey, i wanted to share my latest brilliant idea for pissing off dubs.

i frequently see the mags in the usual public places: doctor's/dentist's office, supercuts, etc.

DA'ing policy for blood transfusions?
by cyberguy in
1. watchtower
2. scandals
has anyone gotten a scanned copy of the letter sent to co's, to da someone instead of df'ing them for a blood transfusion?

it seems to me that this policy change has been secretly kept from everyone outside of elders.

in fact, the co read it to elder bodies, but nothing in writing was actually given to local elders to file in their talmud-of-society-letters!
