Oh I see. The reason I was asking was because they made it sound like this was another proof that they were the true religion. But I guess that would also make the Jewish the true religion. Well, thanks for the information guys.

WTS slanders world famous rock n roll band - the truth revealed
by joe_from_kokomo inyou have probably heard the excerpt in a talk at your kingdom hall.
it has been inserted in more than one outline, and although it sounds pretty dated by now, it is still in use.
we started attending in 1995 (we're out now), but i can recall hearing this same story told at least 5 or 6 times by different brothers in their sunday morning talk:.

the elders came
by the mole inmy friend and my sister has betrayed me in my confidence to ask them on issues i have with the org.
i admitted that i dont think what the org is telling is all truth.
so the elders came and whipped me but i would not bow down to them, my freedom is at stake and i will not be a robot.

Internet use and the dubs
by William Penwell injust wondering if anyone is aware of a clamp down coming down on internet use with the dubs?
just talking to my parents tonight and there was some mention that "big brother" wt organization will be shutting down any dub web sites.
i guess i wasn't to popular as i said, "god created us with a brain to think amd it would be the most divine thing if we used that brain to think for ourself".

Shutting off privately owned websites sounds kind of difficult for the WT to accomplish, but not impossible. The person will feel the pressure of taking down the webpage even if the elders don't know he has one, and besides, what kind of witness would go into a JW page knowing that those pages shouldn't be around. The only ones would be people just surfing through the net, but I doubt there would be any use in the webpage. If they are 'worldly' people, they'll most likely consider information from other sources such as this site. I have some friends who turn very defensive when I tell them that there is some information on their religion on a website or something, I can imagine now how they'll be. Are they also taking down the website watchtower.com? That'll be kewl. Has any ex-JW here found this webpage by luck, then just read some part out of curiousity, then later leave the org from the information they found here? -CA

Is there anything you'd willingly give your life for?
by Happythoughts ini would willingly give my life to save my child.
i'm sure that would be the same answer for most parents, but how about those people without kids?

Are there any young folks who are sincere JWs?
by Spudinator ini'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?

I have several friends who are sincere Jehovah Witnesses and believe they have the 'truth'. I don't believe they will last long in the sect if someone starts preaching to them, they cannot defend their beliefs well enough. The only problem is that they are still 'deaf', they just don't want to listen to other people from a different religion and regard any info you give to them as 'apostate information'. Been there, done that.
