i'm closer to middle-age so that is why the question is posed; so those that are younger or really know some younger jws very well can give an older codger some insight.. i hear a lot of grumbling among those of my generation that the new kids just don't seem to get it.

("it" being the "truth.

") is this really the case for the vast majority?

integ

Not many. I'd say 10 to 20 percent, the rest are locked in.

Thread Motivation

by StinkyPantz in

jw

ever wonder why certain people start certain threads?

i mean, sure the quizzes are sometimes fun, the "what did you eat for breakfast?

" threads can be participated by all; but do people actually sit around wondering what your zip code is?.

integ

I start threads because I hate everyone, and am trying to destroy as many peoples lives as possible.

i'd like my new name to be tiptoe if that's ok. it's my little cat's name and i'll be tiptoeing around all of you after what i said...

Why don't you change it to "Wrath of Jehu". It has an ominous tone.

JWs - What Proves That They're a Cult

by Black Man in

i think one major point that proves that the jw's are a cult is that you can't leave without being stigmatized.

all you have to do for other religions is take your name of the membership log or just resign.

for jw's you can't leave unless you're df'd or da'd.

If it weren't for that I would have left that religion when I was 17.

That's why they do it.

JW's ripped off the 1975 date

by RunningMan in

holy crap!

i was doing some reading about old herbert w armstrong, after hearing about his son's death, and i found something totally unexpected.as early as 1956, he pointed to the year 1975 as being for example, in the 1956 wcg publication, 1975 in prophecy, armstrong wrote; "but now you're going to peek into the surprising future, exactly as it will happen!

not what men plan-but what god says!...very soon-of this very present generation-of all people you know now-only one third of them will be left alive!

From what I understand, Herb Armstrong was a Witness (bible student) at one time, and professed to be of the annointed.
