  Ok I will quit being silly.

  Why is it called Spiritually Mature instead of unduly burdening the congregation when Elders make up nit-picking congregational rules.

  did you notice any young jw sisters in the past that did rush to get married too young and to have a baby right away before the end comes?

  did you hear any stories of regret?

  i was wondering if the watchtower is to blame for?.

  Is it an unforgivable sin to be at the FS coffee break daydreaming about two hot-sisters kissing but the daydream is interrupted when they ask me what I am thinking about and I make up an answer? Or would telling them what I was thinking about be the lesser of the sins?

  C'mon remember back when you were a "youth" and the hormones were raging?

  Breaking News: Big Trouble with the Watchtower

  by Bethelite Elder in

  a couple of weeks ago, an ex-bethelite(10 years) by the name of mel smith was disfellowshipped.

  i understand that he still lives in ny are and has a mortgage company.

  evidently, he was hurt while serving at the farm and watchtower did some horrible things to him.

  Does anyone think that maybe we're just wrong?

  i was disfellowshipped in 1995. even though i lost my friends and family, i felt like i had been finally set free and was happy for many years.

  while i was a jehovah's witness, i always felt so miserable.

  i never felt like i was doing enough to please jehovah.

  MY BROTHER-IN-LAW HAS DIED

  by Mary in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this is one post i had always hoped i would never have to do, but after a long and brave battle, my beloved brother in law has died.

  i have done a couple of threads on this in the past, so many of you know the battles he was facing.

  he had been diagnosed earlier this year with myelodysplastic syndrome and the mortality rate of this disease is quite high.

  Everything About Being An Elder is Weird (my misc rambling memories of being an elder)

  by AllTimeJeff in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for any brother who is a jehovah's witness, the goal is put before them to reach out for the privilege of being an elder.

  i can only speak for myself, but being born into the religion, i wanted to be an elder since i was 5. i would have much rather wanted to be a doctor or engineer, but those are the breaks..... i'll skip the part about what it takes to reach out, all the crap you have to put up with as a ministerial servant to get appointed, and go straight to the reality.. i know many elders who sincerely just wanted to be shepherds.

  i did want the spotlight.
