If you are not an aethiest you can go to almost any religion on earth. Go to the church, synagog, mosque or whatever listen to anything that does not pertain to doctrine and believe in yourself and you will have it made.

Thanks for the reply. The other reply that I refer to in my message was much longer and detailed. However , it did include the information that you mention. It appears that the scholars in the world are not in sync with the beliefs and doctrine of Christian churches(or vice versa). Of course it goes without saying that the more recognized scholars do not even address JW as a bonafide belief system. Some of the things that these scholars are saying would knock the socks of most religious people.
Perhaps the person who wrote the message I read and lost will come forward or the search feature will be available soon.

in the Money
by Phil ini have read the posts on the so called wealth of the jw organization.
where is the proof that they have all this money in the banks, somewhere.. with all the people leaving the org i can only assume that more concrete information would be available from people that have actually worked in the accounting department and would furnish this to the fbi.

In January 2003 I posted a message requesting some history on the JW Bible. Unfortuneately, I tried to copy the information and for some reason it would not print. I then posted another message explaining this delema. Then the format of this web changed and I lost the location of this information.
Would the person that answered my question so well mind sending that information again to me at [email protected]. I would appreciate it.

Did you know: some states will force blood transfusions on your child
by joe_from_kokomo inone of my children is facing surgery, and when we went in for pre-op discussions and tests, we met with the anesthesiologist's assistant.
of course, we told her we were jws, and noted that on the questionaire form, but she was quick to inform me that in my state, blood transfusions can be administered to minor children in spite of the parent's objections, even if they are jws.
state law precedent has been set in this matter, and they will get a court order if needed.. .

Kokomo is in Indiana as it says in the song is it?
Is there a source where we can find out which states have such laws. If my daughter who is a JW were to get in an accident and arrive unconcience and her husband is not present couls I sign for her and allow the transfusion?
By the way, you seem to be a JW at the present. I thought the governing body does not permit you associating with people like us on such a web site.

Bible Study?
by ClassAvenger inwhat does a "bible study" from the jws teach?
i've been offered one, is it a good idea to accept?
they tell me that they will just show me what they believe and why the believe that, that's it.

I have tried to get some information out of JW people with little success. One question that seems to steimy them is "who was the person that modified the Bible to come up with their version?" Also "what are the credentials of those individuals?"
As in all Bible studies, it isn't a "study". It is an endoctrination into an interpretation of the religious organization you are "studying" with. If you question them too much with apprpriate questiong, you will be kicked out of the study. Undesirable?

Interpretation of Scripture
by chacha incan the bible be interpreted correctly only by the watchtower?.
do you believe that the bible was written to all people?
-

Phil
If the Words of the Bible are the words of God written by inspired people, then the only person that can and should interpret those words must also be inspired. I know of no living soul on earth that is so endowed including Seventh day Adventists, Jehovah's Witnesses or the Pope.

Sweeheart, you are looking in the wrong places. All the Christians of the world keep relying on a book that is perported to be the voice of God and written by people that were supposedly inspired by God. How you and others can rely on a book that is full of mistakes and say it is the word of God.
Get real. God does not help people on earth. You are here by yourself and must rely on your soul that is within you. Your task is to find it, and once found you will be free.
