  Magic Money, a tale of circular idiocy..........

  by WingCommander in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  here is an example of just how stupid the attitude of some congregations seems to be.

  i'm sure we've all seen this example of stupid circular economics in action.

  end of the world - just around the corner.. don't get an education or a job - end of the world is near.. need a job in order to keep up with the buying of designer suits or dresses, a new bmw or oh yeah, a newly built home would be nice too.

  New opinion on Memorials

  by ChileanRick in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  here in chile, when the times of memorial its near, you can see a lot of brothers and sister buying new clothes for that ocassion.

  so, when you are attending the memorial meeting, you can feel nobody is listening really.

  everybody is looking how are the others clothed, who is a visitor, and when the meeting gets and end, nobody is really interested in other ones, but only in its friends.

  Christian priorities and holidays

  by jurs in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  even when i was a jw i thought it odd that witnesses gave so much importance to holidays.

  when i was studying, i was bogged down with how awful they were because they are pagan and how wrong it was to celebrate.

  it seems to me like more attention was donated to the issue of holidays than what the meat of christianity is.

  Memorial: Tribute to Jesus, or fashion show??

  by WingCommander in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  while i'm not a regular as much as i used to be (maybe get to the hall 10 times a year), i always give praise and thanks to jehovah and his son jesus as requested in the bible on the appropriate day.

  i have never missed a memorial.

  whether or not i agree with everything the gb or watchtower puts out or says, is irrelevant.

  1. jw
  2. friends

  since i am new on this forum, just thought i'd share my story.

  parent's nutty jw friends told them to raise children like nazi's, and not allow them to do anything, or associate with anyone other than jw kids.

  Ever hear of the "Three-Brain"???

  by WingCommander in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i am a "newbie" on here, so you'll have to bere with me.

  my question is, have any of you heard about a group of scam artists going around to the congregations trying to peddle their version of self-healing crap???

  this was about 10-12 years ago in the usa.
